A new infinite class of Chern-Simons theories is presented using brane tilings. The new class reproduces all known cases so far and introduces many new models that are dual to M2 brane theories which probe a toric non-compact CY 4-fold. The…
During the conference held in 2017 in Minneapolis for his 60th birthday, Gennady Lyubeznik proposed the following problem: Find a complete local domain and an element in it having three minimal primes such that the sum of any two of them…
This paper introduces a new approach to finding knots and links with hidden symmetries using "hidden extensions", a class of hidden symmetries defined here. We exhibit a family of tangle complements in the ball whose boundaries have…
The counting of alternating tangles in terms of their crossing number, number of external legs and connected components is presented here in a unified framework using quantum field-theoretic methods applied to a matrix model of colored…
In this paper we use the connected sum operation on knots to show that there is a one-to-one relation between knots and numbers. In this relation prime knots are bijectively assigned with prime numbers such that the prime number 2…
We present a new method to derive exact cumulant expressions of any order of von Neumann entropy over Hilbert-Schmidt ensemble. The new method uncovers hidden cumulant structures that decouple each cumulant in a summation-free manner into…
Conforti et al. give a compact extended formulation for a class of bimodular-constrained integer programs, namely those that model the stable set polytope of a graph with no disjoint odd cycles. We extend their techniques to design compact…
New obstructions for embedding one compact oriented 3-manifold in another are given. A theorem of D. Krebes concerning 4-tangles embedded in links arises as a special case. Algebraic and skein-theoretic generalizations for 2n-tangles…
Given a knot, we ask how its Khovanov and Khovanov-Rozansky homologies change under the operation of introducing twists in a pair of strands. We obtain long exact sequences in homology and further algebraic structure which is then used to…
We prove that 1) There exist infinitely many non-trivial codimension one "thick" knots in $\mathbb{R}^5$; 2) For each closed four-dimensional smooth manifold $M$ and for each sufficiently small positive $\epsilon$ the set of isometry…
As argued by Hone in the paper [Commun. Pure Appl. Math., 74(11):2310--2347, 2021], a ``mismatch" problem remained unsolved while he was investigating continued fraction expansions and Hankel determinants from hyperelliptic curves. In this…
Open superstring field theory admits a "hybrid" formulation where N = 1 D = 4 supersymmetry is manifest for Calabi-Yau compactifications to four dimensions. Using this formulation, the half-BPS instanton solution of four-dimensional…
We consider the most general form of extended Hubbard Hamiltonian conserving the total spin and number of electrons, and find all the 1-dimensional completely integrable models which can be derived from first degree polynomial solution of…
Associated to a hyperbolic knot complement in $S^3$ is a set of prime numbers corresponding to the residue characteristics of the ramified places of the quaternion algebras obtained by Dehn surgery on the knots. Previous work by…
The evaluation of the interaction between objects arranged on a lattice requires the computation of lattice sums. A scenario frequently encountered are systems governed by the Helmholtz equation in the context of electromagnetic scattering…
Closed formulae for upper bound on three tangles of three-qubit reduced states in terms of three-qubit invariant polynomials of pure four-qubit states are obtained. Our results offer tighter constraints on total three-way entanglement of a…
We define a frontal bundle by imposing a compatibility condition on two types of coherent tangent bundles over a surface with boundary. Since it is known that there are two Gauss-Bonnet type formulas for coherent tangent bundles, we obtain…
R. F. Williams showed that all knots in the Lorenz template are prime. His proof included the cases where any number of positive twists were added to one of the template's branches. However, Williams does give an example of a composite knot…
We define an invariant of tangles and framed tangles given a finite crossed module and a pair of functions, called a Reidemeister pair, satisfying natural properties. We give several examples of Reidemeister pairs derived from racks,…
In this paper we study a wide class of planar single-trace four point correlators in the chiral conformal field theory ($\chi$CFT$_4$) arising as a double scaling limit of the $\gamma$-deformed $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM theory. In the planar…
