A notion of dual curve for pseudoholomorphic curves in 4--manifolds turns out to be possible only if the notion of almost complex structure structure is slightly generalized. The resulting structure is as easy (perhaps easier) to work with,…
The standard Radon transform of holomorphic functions is not always well defined, as the integration of such functions over planes may not converge. In this paper, we introduce new Radon-type transforms of co-(real)dimension $2$ for…
Efficiency of routing on a regular digraph often involves finding opitmal properties of the graph. For example, the diameter of a digraph is the maximum distance between any two vertices. We show how we can study these problems…
Motivated by the physical concept of special geometry two mathematical constructions are studied, which relate real hypersurfaces to tube domains and complex Lagrangean cones respectively. Me\-thods are developed for the classification of…
A variant of Gromov's H{\"o}lder-equivalence problem, motivated by a pinching problem in Riemannian geometry, is discussed. A partial result is given. The main tool is a general coarea inequality satisfied by packing energies of maps.
We generalise the definition of a group algebra so that it makes sense for non-locally compact topological groups, in particular, we require that the representation theory of the group algebra is isomorphic (in the sense of Gelfand-Raikov)…
In this paper, we show how certain three-class association schemes and orthogonal arrays give rise to partial geometric designs. We also investigate the connections between partial geometric designs and certain regular graphs having three…
We consider how the problem of determining normal forms for a specific class of nonholonomic systems leads to various interesting and concrete bridges between two apparently unrelated themes. Various ideas that traditionally pertain to the…
This paper provides results on the modular representation theory of the supergroup $GL(m|n).$ Working over a field of arbitrary characteristic, we prove that the explicit combinatorics of certain crystal graphs describe the representation…
A general scheme for determining and studying integrable deformations of algebraic curves is presented. The method is illustrated with the analysis of the hyperelliptic case. An associated multi-Hamiltonian hierarchy of systems of…
We address some conjectures and open problems in "analysis of symmetries" which include the study of non-commutative harmonic analysis and discontinuous groups for reductive homogeneous spaces beyond the classical framework: (1) discrete…
This paper presents and explores a theory of \emph{multiholomorphic maps}. This group of ideas generalizes the theory of pseudoholomorphic curves in a direction suggested by consideration of the kinds of compatible geometric structures that…
Semigraphoids are combinatorial structures that arise in statistical learning theory. They are equivalent to convex rank tests and to polyhedral fans that coarsen the reflection arrangement of the symmetric group. We resolve two problems on…
Universal bi-Hamiltonian hierarchies of group-invariant (multicomponent) soliton equations are derived from non-stretching geometric curve flows $\map(t,x)$ in Riemannian symmetric spaces $M=G/H$, including compact semisimple Lie groups…
This is a brief survey of recent results by the authors devoted to one of the most important operators of integral geometry. Basic facts about the analytic family of cosine transforms on the unit sphere and the corresponding Funk transform…
We consider the X-ray transform in a projective space over a finite field. It is well known (after E. Bolker) that this transform is injective. We formulate an analog of I.M. Gelfand's admissibility problem for the Radon transform, which…
There has been a great deal of research on graphs defined on algebraic structures in the last two decades. In this paper we begin an exploration of hypergraphs defined on algebraic structures, especially groups, to investigate whether this…
The conjugation action of the complex orthogonal group on the polynomial functions on $n \times n$ matrices gives rise to a graded algebra of invariant polynomials. A spanning set of this algebra is in bijective correspondence to a set of…
Grafting is a surgery on Riemann surfaces introduced by Thurston which connects hyperbolic geometry and the theory of projective structures on surfaces. We will discuss the space of projective structures in terms of the Thurston's geometric…
For positive integers $r,n,N:=rn$, we consider the Radon hypergeometric function (Radon HGF) associated with a partition $\lambda$ of $n$ defined on the Grassmannian $Gr(m,N)$ for $r<m<N$, which is obtained as the Radon transform of a…
