In this manuscript, fractal and fuzzy calculus are summarized. Fuzzy calculus in terms of fractal limit, continuity, its derivative, and integral are formulated. The fractal fuzzy calculus is a new framework that includes fractal fuzzy…
Gaussian particles provide a flexible framework for modelling and simulating three-dimensional star-shaped random sets. In our framework, the radial function of the particle arises from a kernel smoothing, and is associated with an…
A 2D foam can be characterised by its distribution of bubble areas, and of number of sides. Both distributions have an average and a width (standard deviation). There are therefore at least two very different ways to characterise the…
We study fractal measures on Euclidean space through the dynamics of "zooming in" on typical points. The resulting family of measures (the "scenery"), can be interpreted as an orbit in an appropriate dynamical system which often…
We construct a star product associated with an arbitrary two dimensional Poisson structure using generalized coherent states on the complex plane. From our approach one easily recovers the star product for the fuzzy torus, and also one for…
We investigate dimension-theoretic properties of concentric topological spheres, which are fractal sets emerging both in pure and applied mathematics. We calculate the box dimension and Assouad spectrum of such collections, and use them to…
A nonrelativistic quantum mechanical particle moving freely on a curved surface feels the effect of the nontrivial geometry of the surface through the kinetic part of the Hamiltonian, which is proportional to the Laplace-Beltrami operator,…
The mode problem on the factored 3--sphere is applied to field theory calculations for massless fields of spin 0, 1/2 and 1. The degeneracies on the factors, including lens spaces, are neatly derived in a geometric fashion. Vacuum energies…
A family of fuzzy orbifolds are generated by looking at sub-algebras of the fuzzy sphere. One of them is actually commutative and can be mapped exactly onto a lattice. The others are fuzzy approximations of S^2/Z_N where Z_N is the cyclic…
The product of a non-commutative matrix spectral triple with a simple two-dimensional internal space is considered. This is interpreted as a non-commutative spacetime that contains one charged Dirac fermion and its antiparticle. The inner…
We introduce a rotation invariant short distance cut-off in the theory of an ideal fluid in three space dimensions, by requiring momenta to take values in a sphere. This leads to an algebra of functions in position space is non-commutative.…
We formulate the field-space geometry for an effective field theory of scalars and gauge bosons. Geometric invariants such as the field-space curvature enter in both scattering amplitudes and the renormalization group equations, with the…
The fundamental collective degree of freedom of fractional quantum Hall states is identified as a unimodular two-dimensional spatial metric that characterizes the local shape of the correlations of the incompressible fluid. Its quantum…
Large scale molecular dynamics simulations of freely decaying turbulence in three-dimensional space are reported. Fluid components are defined from the microscopic states by eliminating thermal components from the coarse-grained fields. The…
The study of particle motion on spherical surfaces is relevant to adsorption on buckyballs and other solid particles. This paper reports results for the binding energy of such dimers, consisting of two light particles (He atoms or hydrogen…
We introduce non-commutative algebras, which can be associated with the function algebra of functions on a finite or half-finite cylinder. The algebras, which depend on a deformation parameter, are crossed product algebras of a partial…
The free energy of globular protein chain is considered to be a functional defined on smooth curves in three dimensional Euclidean space. From the requirement of geometrical invariance, together with basic facts on conformation of helical…
We show that the classical equations of motion for a particle on three dimensional fuzzy space and on the fuzzy sphere are underpinned by a natural Lorentz geometry. From this geometric perspective, the equations of motion generally…
Fuzzy spaces like the fuzzy sphere or the fuzzy torus have received remarkable attention, since they appeared as objects in string theory. Although there are many higher dimensional examples, the most known and most studied fuzzy spaces are…
Electronic properties of quantum materials solids are often well understood via the low energy dispersion of Bloch bands, motivating single band approximations in many metals and semiconductors. However, a closer look reveals length and…
