On each nonorientable surface of even genus $g \geq 4$, we show that the Liechti-Strenner's polynomial in~\cite{LiechtiStrenner18} gives a maximal dilatation among pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphisms with an orientable invariant foliation. This is proved by showing that this polynomial is irreducible.
We calculate the Chern-Simons invariants of the hyperbolic double twist knot orbifolds using the Schläfli formula for the generalized Chern-Simons function on the family of cone-manifold structures of double twist knots.
An explicit formula for the $A$-polynomial of the knot having Conway's notation $C(2n,4)$ is computed up to repeated factors. Our polynomial contains exactly the same irreducible factors as the $A$-polynomial defined in~\cite{CCGLS1}.
We show that the Liechti-Strenner's example for the closed nonorientable surface in \cite{LiechtiStrenner18} minimizes the dilatation within the class of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms with an orientable invariant foliation and all but the first coefficient of the characteristic polynomial of the action induced on the first cohomology nonpositive. We also show that the Liechti-Strenner's example of orientation-reversing homeomorphism for the closed orientable surface in \cite{LiechtiStrenner18} minimizes the dilatation within the class of pseudo-Anosov homeomorphisms with an orientable invariant foliation and all but the first coefficient of the characteristic polynomial $p(x)$ of the action induced on the first cohomology nonpositive or all but the first coefficient of $p(x) (x \pm 1)^2$, $p(x) (x^2 \pm 1)$, or $p(x) (x^2 \pm x + 1)$ nonpositive.
On each nonorientable surface of odd genus $g \geq 5$, we give a mapping class whose dilatation on an invariant subsurface is the golden ratio.
We extend the Neumann's methods and give the explicit formulae for the volume and the Chern-Simons invariant for hyperbolic alternating knot orbifolds.
We extend some part of the unpublished paper written by Mednykh and Rasskazov. Using the approach indicated in this paper we derive the Riley-Mednykh polynomial for some family of the $2$-bridge knot orbifolds. As a result we obtain explicit formulae for the volume of cone-manifolds and the Chern-Simons invariant of orbifolds of the knot with Conway's notation $C(2n,4)$.
We calculate the volume of the $7_3^2$ link cone-manifolds using the Schläfli formula. As an application, we give the volume of the cyclic coverings over the link.
We calculate the Chern-Simons invariants of the twist knot orbifolds using the Schläfli formula for the generalized Chern-Simons function on the family of the twist knot cone-manifold structures. Following the general instruction of Hilden, Lozano, and Montesinos-Amilibia, we here present the concrete formulae and calculations. We use the Pythagorean Theorem \cite{HMP} to relate the complex length of the longitude and the complex distance between the two axes fixed by two generators. As an application, we calculate the Chern-Simons invariants of cyclic coverings of the hyperbolic twist knot orbifolds. We also derive some interesting results. The $A$-polynomials of twist knots are obtained from the complex distance polynomials. Hence the edge polynomials corresponding to the edges of the Newton polygons of A-polynomials of twist knots can be obtained. In particular, the number of boundary components of every incompressible surface corresponding to slope $-4n+2$ appear to be $2$.
An explicit formula for the $A$-polynomial of the knot with Conway's notation $C(2n,3)$ is obtained from the explicit Riley-Mednykh polynomial of it.
Let $C(2n, 3)$ be the family of two bridge knots of slope $(4n+1)/(6n+1)$. We calculate the volumes of the $C(2n, 3)$ cone-manifolds using the Schläfli formula. We present the concrete and explicit formula of them. We apply the general instructions of Hilden, Lozano, and Montesinos-Amilibia and extend the Ham, Mednykh, and Petrov's methods. As an application, we give the volumes of the cyclic coverings over those knots. For the fundamental group of $C( 2n, 3)$, we take and tailor Hoste and Shanahan's. As a byproduct, we give an affirmative answer for their question whether their presentation is actually derived from Schubert's canonical 2-bridge diagram or not.

A driven stochastic system in a constant temperature heat bath relaxes into a steady state which is characterized by the steady state probability distribution. We investigate the relationship between the driving force and the steady state probability distribution. We adopt the force decomposition method in which the force is decomposed as the sum of a gradient of a steady state potential and the remaining part. The decomposition method allows one to find a set of force fields each of which is compatible to a given steady state. Such a knowledge provides a useful insight on stochastic systems especially in the nonequilibrium situation. We demonstrate the decomposition method in stochastic systems under overdamped and underdamped dynamics and discuss the connection between them.
Condensation is characterized with a single macroscopic condensate whose mass is proportional to a system size $N$. We demonstrate how important particle interactions are in condensation phenomena. We study a modified version of the zero-range process by including a pair exclusion. Each particle is associated with its own partner, and particles of a pair are forbidden to stay at the same site. The pair exclusion is weak in that a particle interacts with only a single one among all others. It turns out that such a weak interaction changes the nature of condensation drastically. There appear a number of mesoscopic condensates: the mass of a condensate scales as $m_{\rm con}\sim N^{1/2}$ and the number of condensates scales as $N_{\rm con} \sim N^{1/2}$ with a logarithmic correction. These results are derived analytically through a mapping to a solvable model under a certain assumption, and confirmed numerically.
