We consider the edge Hall conductance and show it is invariant under perturbations located in a strip along the edge. This enables us to prove for the edge conductances a general sum rule relating currents due to the presence of two different media located respectively on the left and on the right half plane. As a particular interesting case...

A classical theory of Dvoretsky states that every
infinite dimensional Banach space contains subspaces of arbitrarily large finite dimension,
which are arbitrarily close to a Hilbert space (in terms of the Banach-Mazur distance). V.Milman's proof of this result, based on the "concentration of measure" phenomenon, will be presented.

In this talk I will give a reasonably self-contained overview of the C*-algebraic approach to non-equilibrium quantum statistical mechanics with emphasis on the recent developments.

We describe a stochastic model for complex networks possessing three
qualitative features: power-law degree distributions, local clustering, and
slowly-growing diameter.
The model is mathematically natural, permits a wide variety
of explicit calculations, has the desired three qualitative features,
and fits the complete range of degree scaling...
