We show a kind of converse to some results of Hall and Reginatto on exact uncertainty related to the Schroedinger and Wheeler-deWitt equations. Some survey material on statistical geometrodynamics is also sketched.

We review recent developments on quantum scattering from mesoscopic systems. Various spatial geometries whose closed analogs shows diffusive, localized or critical behavior are considered. These are features that cannot be described by the…

The paper reviews the most illustrative cases of the "peculiar/anomalous" experiences of time (and, to a lesser extent, also space) and discusses a simple algebraic geometrical model accounting for the most pronounced of them.

Latent space geometry provides a rigorous and empirically valuable framework for interacting with the latent variables of deep generative models. This approach reinterprets Euclidean latent spaces as Riemannian through a pull-back metric,…

The cumulative size-frequency distributions of impact craters on planetary bodies in the solar system appear to approximate a universal inverse square power-law for small crater radii. In this article, we show how this distribution can be…
