AbstractThe van der Pauw method is a well-known experimental technique in the applied sciences for measuring physical quantities such as the electrical conductivity or the Hall coefficient of a given sample. Its popularity is attributable to its flexibility: the same method works for planar samples of any shape provided they are simply connected. Mathematically, the method is based on the cross-ratio identity. Much recent work has been done by applied scientists attempting to extend the van der Pauw method to samples with holes (“holey samples”). In this article we show the relevance of two new function theoretic ingredients to this area of application: the prime function associated with the Schottky double of a multiply connected planar domain and the Fay trisecant identity involving that prime function. We focus here on the single-hole (doubly connected, or genus one) case. Using these new theoretical ingredients we are able to prove several mathematical conjectures put forward in the applied science literature.

Lattice computations are the only first principle method capable of quantitatively assessing the topological properties of QCD at high temperature, however the numerical determination of the topological properties of QCD, especially in the high temperature phase, is a notoriously difficult problem. We will discuss the difficulties encountered in such a computation and some strategies that have been proposed to avoid (or at least to alleviate) them.
