The analysis of cylindrical resonators is part of standard physics curricula but, unlike for their rectangular counterpart, their mode structure is hardly ever visualized. The aim of this work is to show a way of doing it, providing a set…
The understanding of probability can be difficult for a few young scientists. Consequently, this new mathematical symbol, related to binomial coefficients and simplicial polytopic numbers, could be helpful to science education. Moreover,…
The shape of crystalline nanoparticles (NP) can often be described by polyhedra with flat facet surfaces. Thus, structural studies of polyhedral bodies can help to describe geometric details of NPs. Here we consider compact polyhedra of…
Some conjectures and open problems in convex geometry are presented, and their physical origin, meaning, and importance, for quantum theory and generic statistical theories, are briefly discussed.
In recent years, several quantizations of real manifolds have been studied, in particular from the point of view of Connes' noncommutative geometry. Less is known for complex noncommutative spaces. In this paper, we review some recent…
This is a written version of the invited lecture at the 9th European Congress of Mathematics in July 2024 in Sevilla. We review certain new symmetries of Grothendieck rings that have emerged in representation theory.
The quaternionic numerical range of matrices over the ring of quaternions is not necessarily convex. We prove Toeplitz-Hausdorff like theorem, that is, for any given quaternionic matrix every section of its quaternionic numerical range is…
This colloquium addresses the issue of the shape of hadrons and in particular that of the proton. The concept of shape in the microcosm is critically examined. Special attention is devoted to properly define the meaning of shape for…
Universal relations that are insensitive to the equation of state (EoS) are useful in reducing the parameter space when measuring global quantities of neutron stars (NSs). In this paper, we reveal a new universal relation that connects the…
This paper gives a complete classification of conics in $PE_2(\mathbb{R})$. The classification has been made earlier (Reveruk [5]), but it showed to be incomplete and not possible to cite and use in further studies of properties of conics,…
We classify the Lagrangian orientable surfaces in complex space forms with the property that the ellipse of curvature is always a circle. As a consequence, we obtain new characterizations of the Clifford torus of the complex projective…
Convex support, the mean values of a set of random variables, is central in information theory and statistics. Equally central in quantum information theory are mean values of a set of observables in a finite-dimensional C*-algebra A, which…
Convex geometry and complex geometry have long had fascinating interactions. This survey offers a tour of a few.
We introduce the notion of one-sided mapping cones of positive linear maps between matrix algebras. These are convex cones of maps that are invariant under compositions by completely positive maps from either the left or right side. The…
Contrasting the previous evidence that neurons in the later layers of a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) respond to complex object shapes, recent studies have shown that CNNs actually exhibit a `texture bias': given an image with both…
We define an 'oriented convex region' as a convex region with a direction of symmetry. An earlier article had touched upon isosceles triangles, rectangles and ellipses. Here, we examine some more possible oriented containers - semicircles,…
We found convex pentagons whose Heesch number is equal to one, and which admit an edge-to-edge corona. In this manuscript, we present a new classification of these convex pentagons.
Let $x_1,\ldots ,x_N$ be independent random points distributed according to an isotropic log-concave measure $\mu $ on ${\mathbb R}^n$, and consider the random polytope $$K_N:={\rm conv}\{ \pm x_1,\ldots ,\pm x_N\}.$$ We provide sharp…
In the recent work [Metrically round and sleek metric spaces, \emph{The Journal of Analysis} (2022), pp 1--17], the authors proved some results on metrically round and sleek linear metric spaces and metric spaces. In continuation, the…
Inspired by the theory of classifying topoi for geometric theories, we define rounded sketches and logoi and provide the notion of classifying logos for a rounded sketch. Rounded sketches can be used to axiomatise all the known fragments of…
