The Jacobian Conjecture as a Problem of Perturbative Quantum Field Theory
Abstract. The Jacobian conjecture is an old unsolved problem in mathematics, which has been unsuccessfully attacked from many different angles. We add here another point of view pertaining to the so-called formal inverse approach, that of perturbative quantum field theory.

Brill-Gordan loci, transvectants and an analogue of the Foulkes conjecture
The hypersurfaces of degree d in the projective space Pn correspond to points of PN, where N=(n+dd)−1. Now assume d=2e is even, and let X(n,d)⊆PN denote the subvariety of two e-fold hyperplanes. We exhibit an upper bound on the Castelnuovo regularity of the ideal of X(n,d), and show that this variety is r-normal for r⩾2. The latter result is representation-theoretic, and says that a certain GLn+1-equivariant morphism 
Sr(S2e(Cn+1))→S2(Sre(Cn+1)) 
is surjective for r⩾2; a statement which is reminiscent of the Foulkes–Howe conjecture. For its proof, we reduce the statement to the case n=1, and then show that certain transvectants of binary forms are nonzero. The latter part uses explicit calculations with Feynman diagrams and hypergeometric series. For ternary quartics and binary d-ics, we give explicit generators for the defining ideal of X(n,d) expressed in the language of classical invariant theory.

The Ground State Energy of the Massless Spin-Boson Model
We provide an explicit combinatorial expansion for the ground state energy of the massless spin-Boson model as a power series in the coupling parameter. Our method uses the technique of cluster expansion in constructive quantum field theory and takes as a starting point the functional integral representation and its reduction to an Ising model on the real line with long range interactions. We prove the analyticity of our expansion and provide an explicit lower bound on the radius of convergence. We do not need multiscale nor renormalization group analysis. A connection to the loop-erased random walk is indicated.

Feynman Diagrams in Algebraic Combinatorics
We show, in great detail, how the perturbative tools of quantum field theory allow one to rigorously obtain: a ``categorified'' Faa di Bruno type formula for multiple composition, an explicit formula for reversion and a proof of Lagrange-Good inversion, all in the setting of multivariable power series. We took great pains to offer a self-contained presentation that, we hope, will provide any mathematician who wishes, an easy access to the wonderland of quantum field theory.

Bosonic Monocluster Expansion
Abstract: We compute Green's functions of a Bosonic field theory with cutoffs by means of a “minimal” expansion which in a single move, interpolating a generalized propagator, performs the usual tasks of the cluster and Mayer expansion. In this way it allows a direct construction of the infinite volume or thermodynamic limit and it brings constructive Bosonic expansions closer to constructive Fermionic expansions and to perturbation theory.

A Complete Renormalization Group Trajectory Between Two Fixed Points
We give a rigorous nonperturbative construction of a massless discrete trajectory for Wilson’s exact renormalization group. The model is a three dimensional Euclidean field theory with a modified free propagator. The trajectory realizes the mean field to critical crossover from the ultraviolet Gaussian fixed point to an analog recently constructed by Brydges, Mitter and Scoppola of the Wilson-Fisher nontrivial fixed point.

The detector control system for the ATLAS semiconductor tracker assembly phase
The ATLAS Semiconductor tracker (SCT) consists of 4088 silicon microstrip modules, with a total of 6.3 million readout channels. These are arranged into 4 concentric barrel layers and 2 endcaps of 9 disks each. The coherent and safe operation of the SCT during commissioning and subsequent operation is an essential task of the Detector Control System (DCS). The main building blocks of the SCT DCS, the cooling system, the power supplies and the environmental system, are described. First results from DCS testing are presented.

The control and monitoring system for the ATLAS semi-conductor tracker
Abstract The ATLAS Semi-Conductor Tracker (SCT) will be made of 4088 silicon modules mounted on four barrel supports and eighteen end cap disks. At present module production has started in different sites all around the world. The assembly of the modules into the support structures is taking place at three different macro-assembly sites. To allow for the safety operation of the detector a Detector Control System (DCS) is being developed at CERN that will be close to the final ATLAS configuration. The DCS will control and monitor the power supply provided to the modules, the cooling system and the environmental variables. This paper will give an overview of the system required to operate and readout large-scale silicon detectors.
