The main purpose of this paper is to explore normality in terms of distances between points and sets. We prove some important consequences on realvalued contractions, i.e. functions not enlarging the distance, showing that as in the…

A n n-body system is a labelled collection of n point masses in Euclidean space, and their congruence and internal symmetry properties involve a rich mathematical structure which is investigated in the framework of equivariant Riemannian…

The problem of identifying the set of Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DtN) maps arising from conductivities on a smooth domain, among operators acting on functions on the boundary, is a challenging issue in the mathematical analysis of the Calder\'on…

We extend the framework of K-stability (Tian, Donaldson) to more general algebro-geometric setting, such as partial desingularisations of (fixed) singularities, (not necessarily flat) families over higher dimensional base and the classical…

For a given spectral curve, we construct a family of symplectic dual spectral curves for which we prove an explicit formula expressing the $n$-point functions produced by the topological recursion on these curves via the $n$-point functions…

If $G$ is a compact group, continuous normalized positive definite functions are in one-to-one correspondence with unital quantum channels acting as Fourier multipliers on the group von Neumann algebra $\mathrm{VN}(G)$. We study the convex…

(I.) We consider generalizations of an iterated function system and the associated Markov operators. A Markov operator, defined on the space of (deficient) topological measures on a locally compact space, is an infinite convex linear…

We study the superconformal index for the class of N=2 4d superconformal field theories recently introduced by Gaiotto. These theories are defined by compactifying the (2,0) 6d theory on a Riemann surface with punctures. We interpret the…

Consider a group word w in n letters. For a compact group G, w induces a map G^n \rightarrow G$ and thus a pushforward measure {\mu}_w on G from the Haar measure on G^n. We associate to each word w a 2-dimensional cell complex X(w) and…

A direct relation between the enumeration of ordinary maps and that of fully simple maps first appeared in the work of the first and last authors. The relation is via monotone Hurwitz numbers and was originally proved using Weingarten…

We show how a set of POVMs, expressed as a set of $\mu$ linear maps, can be performed with a unitary transformation followed by a von-Neumann measurement with an ancillary system of no more than $\mu N^2$ dimensions. This result shows that…

For a continuous angle-valued map defined on a compact ANR, a fixed field and any degree one proposes a refinement of the Novikov-Betti number and of the Novikov homology of the pair consisting of the ANR and the degree one integral…

Motivated by the theory of Riemann surfaces, we classify all possibilities for finite simple groups acting faithfully on a compact Riemann surface of genus at least 2 in such a way that all non-trivial elements have at most three fixed…

The two-dimensional Radon transform of the Wigner quasiprobability is introduced in canonical form and the functions playing a role in its inversion are discussed. The transformation properties of this Radon transform with respect to…

We prove some epsilon regularity results for n-dimensional minimal two-valued Lipschitz graphs. The main theorems imply uniqueness of tangent cones and regularity of the singular set in a neighbourhood of any point at which at least one…

The von Neumann algorithm is a simple coordinate-descent algorithm to determine whether the origin belongs to a polytope generated by a finite set of points. When the origin is in the of the polytope, the algorithm generates a sequence of…

Consider a compact locally symmetric space $M$ of rank $r$, with fundamental group $\Gamma$. The von Neumann algebra $\vn(\Gamma)$ is the convolution algebra of functions $f\in\ell_2(\Gamma)$ which act by left convolution on…

In the paper the foundation of the $k$-orbit theory is developed. The theory opens a new simple way to the investigation of groups and multidimensional symmetries. The relations between combinatorial symmetry properties of a $k$-orbit and…

In this paper we consider the sequence of Kakutani's $\alpha$-refinements corresponding to the inverse of golden ratio (which we call Kakutani-Fibonacci sequence of partitions) and associate to it an ergodic interval exchange (which we call…

There is a natural conjugation action on the set of endomorphism of $\P^N$ of fixed degree $d \geq 2$. The quotient by this action forms the moduli of degree $d$ endomorphisms of $\P^N$, denoted $\mathcal{M}_d^N$. We construct invariant…
