We analyze the critical behavior associated with spontaneous breakdown of chiral symmetry in QED3 (three-dimensional QED with four-component Dirac fermion using the SD (Schwinger-Dyson) equation. In the quenched planar approximation, we find an approximate solution such that QED3 resides in only one phase where the chiral symmetry is broken. Moreover, we predict the scaling law for the dynamical mass and chiral order parameter by an analytic study of the SD equation, which is then confirmed by solving the SD equation numerically. This scaling law is consistent with the Monte Carlo result in the quenched approximation.

We consider the critical behavior of the phase transition associated with the spontaneous breaking of chiral-symmetry in (QED) D, in the framework of the Schwinger-Dyson equation. Special attention is paid on the scaling law. While it is well known that quenched planar QED 4 obeys the Miransky scaling of the essential singularity type, our numerical calculations show that QED 5 and QED 6 do obey the mean-field type scaling, even in the quenched planar approximation. Thus the essential singularity type scaling in the cutoff QED is considered to be possible only when D=4 under the quenched planar approximation.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> We introduce a new method for the piecewise-planar approximation of 3D data, including point clouds and meshes. Our method is designed to operate on large datasets (e.g. millions of vertices) containing planar structures, which are very frequent in anthropic scenes. Our approach is also adaptive to the local geometric complexity of the input data. Our main contribution is the formulation of the piecewise-planar approximation problem as a non-convex optimization problem. In turn, this problem can be efficiently solved with a graph-structured working set approach. We compare our results with a state-of-the-art region-growing-based segmentation method and show a significant improvement both in terms of approximation error and computation efficiency.</p>

A review of the main results recently obtained in the study of two-dimensional quantum gravity is offered. The analysis of two-dimensional quantum gravity by the methods of conformal field theory is briefly described. Then the treatment of quantum gravity in terms of matrix models is explained, including the notions of continuum limit, planar approximation, and orthogonal polynomials. Correlation fonctions are also treated, as well as phases of the matrix models.
