If you are given a simple three-dimensional autonomous quadratic system that has only one stable equilibrium, what would you predict its dynamics to be, stable or periodic? Will it be surprising if you are shown that such a system is…
We study combinatorial configurations with the associated point and line graphs being strongly regular. Examples not belonging to known classes such as partial geometries and their generalizations or elliptic semiplanes are constructed.…
This work seeks to tackle the inherent complexity of dataspaces by introducing a novel data structure that can represent datasets across multiple levels of abstraction, ranging from local to global. We propose the concept of a multilevel…
We study graphs coming from quadratic spaces over finite fields via orthogonality which generalize a recent result given by Bishnoi, Ihringer, and Pepe (2019). More precisely, we study the graph $\Gamma^{\square}(n,k,q)$ as follows: the…
The quantum graph plays the role of a solvable model for a two-dimensional network. Here fitting parameters of the quantum graph for modelling the junction is discussed, using previous results of the second author.
The Kuramoto model can be formulated as a gradient flow on a nonconvex energy landscape of the form $E(\boldsymbol{\theta}) := \frac{1}{2} \sum_{1\le i,j\le n} A_{ij}\bigl(1-\cos(\theta_i-\theta_j)\bigr).$ A fundamental question is to…
Given a rational homology sphere M, whose splice diagram satisfy the semigroup condition, Neumann and Wahl were able to define a complete intersection surface singularity called splice diagram singularity from the splice diagram of M. They…
Ramanujan graphs are graphs whose spectrum is bounded optimally. Such graphs have found numerous applications in combinatorics and computer science. In recent years, a high dimensional theory has emerged. In this paper these developments…
We develop a unified theory of Eulerian spaces by combining the combinatorial theory of infinite, locally finite Eulerian graphs as introduced by Diestel and K\"uhn with the topological theory of Eulerian continua defined as irreducible…
Finding equilibria of the finite size Kuramoto model amounts to solving a nonlinear system of equations, which is an important yet challenging problem. We translate this into an algebraic geometry problem and use numerical methods to find…
We study the two-player communication problem of determining whether two vertices $x, y$ are nearby in a graph $G$, with the goal of determining the graph structures that allow the problem to be solved with a constant-cost randomized…
In a drawing of a clustered graph vertices and edges are drawn as points and curves, respectively, while clusters are represented by simple closed regions. A drawing of a clustered graph is c-planar if it has no edge-edge, edge-region, or…
Calculi of string diagrams are increasingly used to present the syntax and algebraic structure of various families of circuits, including signal flow graphs, electrical circuits and quantum processes. In many such approaches, the semantic…
It has been observed that the famous Feigenbaum-Coullet-Tresser period doubling universality has a counterpart for area-preserving maps of $\field{R}^2$. A renormalization approach has been used in a computer-assisted proof of existence of…
A unified scheme for treating generalized superselection sectors is proposed on the basis of the notion of selection criteria to characterize states of relevance to each specific domain in quantum physics, ranging from the relativistic…
One of the more recent measures of centrality in social network analysis is the normalized harmonic centrality. A variant of the closeness centrality, harmonic centrality sums the inverse of the geodesic distances of each node to other…
We study circle maps with a flat interval where the critical exponents at the two boundary points of the flat spot might be different. The space of such systems is partitioned in two connected parts whose common boundary only depends on the…
Hippocampal neurons track positions of self, others, and gaze direction. However, it is unclear how their respective neural codes differ enough to avoid confusion while allowing for abstraction. We recorded from populations of hippocampal…
We investigate two-dimensional neural fields as a model of the dynamics of macroscopic activations in a cortex-like neural system. While the one-dimensional case has been treated comprehensively by Amari 30 years ago, two-dimensional neural…
Gauge theory is a theory with constraints and, for that reason, the space of physical states is not a manifold but a stratified space (orbifold) with singularities. The classification of strata for smooth (and generalized) connections is…
