I present a selection of conceptual and mathematical problems in the foundations of modern physics as they derive from the title question. Contribution to a panel session, "Springer Forum: Quantum Structures -- Physical, Mathematical and…
These are lecture notes that are based on the lectures from a class I taught on the topic of Randomized Linear Algebra (RLA) at UC Berkeley during the Fall 2013 semester.
The purpose of this note is to give an exposition of some interesting combinatorics and convex geometry concepts that appear in algebraic geometry in relation to counting the number of solutions of a system of polynomial equations in…
These notes contain a survey of some aspects of the theory of graded differential algebras and of noncommutative differential calculi as well as of some applications connected with physics. They also give a description of several new…
Lecture notes from the Third International School on Geometry and Physics at the Centre de Recerca Matematica in Barcelona, March 26--30, 2012.
Algebraic hyperbolicity serves as a bridge between differential geometry and algebraic geometry. Generally, it is difficult to show that a given projective variety is algebraically hyperbolic. However, it was established recently that a…
I apply the algebraic framework developed in [1] to study geometry of hyperbolic spaces in 1, 2, and 3 dimensions. The background material on projectivised Clifford algebras and their application to Cayley-Klein geometries is described in…
This is a lecture note prepared for the SFT 9 workshop in Augsburg, Germany. The text describes a polyfold approach to the construction of symplectic field theory and focuses on the perturbation and transversality theory.
This is an extended version of the talk given by the author at the NATO Advanced Study Institute "Supersymmetry and Trace Formulae" (Isaac Newton Institute, Cambridge, UK, 8-19 Septemebr 1997). Contains the following sections: 1.…
This a slightly expended version of my habilitation thesis, which is an overview of my research activities during the last 4 years, written in a rather informal style.
This document contains the notes of a lecture I gave at the "Journ\'ees Nationales du Calcul Formel" (JNCF) on January 2017. The aim of the lecture was to discuss low-level algorithmics for p-adic numbers. It is divided into two main parts:…
This is a survey on the local structure about a fixed point of discrete finite-dimensional holomorphic dynamical systems, discussing in particular the existence of local topological conjugacies to normal forms, and the structure of local…
This paper presents the asymptotic analysis of random lattices in high dimensions to clarify the distance properties of the considered lattices. These properties not only indicate the asymptotic value for the distance between any pair of…
This article was prepared in connection with the 2009 Barnett lecture at the University of Cincinnati, and deals with various classes of fractal sets and analysis on them.
Lattice simulations of hadronic structure are now reaching a level where they are able to not only complement, but also provide guidance to current and forthcoming experimental programmes at, e.g. Jefferson Lab, COMPASS/CERN and FAIR/GSI.…
Supersymmetry and Supersymmetric models are reviewed. Lecture given at the KOSEF-JSPS Winter School, Recent Developments in Particle and Nuclear Theory February 21- March 2, 1996,
In these four lectures, aiming at senior undergraduate and junior graduate Physics and Mathematics students, basic elements of the theory of elliptic functions are presented. Simple applications in classical mechanics are discussed,…
Recent developments of affine algebraic geometry, especially the theory of open algebraic surfaces, provide means to systematically explore geometric and topological properties of polynomials in two variables. Nevertheless, there is one…
These are notes from the lectures I gave at the Oberwolfach seminar `Tensor Triangular Geometry and Interactions' which was held in October 2025. The aim of these notes is to give an introduction to tensor triangular geometry, for both…
This paper investigates the generalizations and applications of weakly $p$-K\"ahler hyperbolic manifolds.
