We show that for an integer $\ell$, there exists an acute integer lattice triangle of lattice perimeter $\ell$ such that its orthocenter is an integer lattice point, if and only if $\ell=6 $ or $\ell\ge 8$. Analogous results are obtained…
We classify Veech groups of tame non-compact flat surfaces. In particular we prove that all countable subgroups of $\mathbf{GL}_+(2,\R)$ avoiding the set of mappings of norm less than 1 appear as Veech groups of tame non-compact flat…
These are the notes of a talk that I gave at the Weihnachtsworkshop 2017 in Saarbr\"ucken. It answered a question by Hooper and Trevi\~no on the Veech group of the golden ladder, a translation surface of infinite type.
We consider the set of all linear combinations with integer coefficients of the vectors of a unit tight equiangular $(k,n)$ frame and are interested in the question whether this set is a lattice, that is, a discrete additive subgroup of the…
A lattice point in $\mathbb{R}^2$ is a point $(x,y)$ with $x,y\in\mathbb{Z}$, and a lattice triangle is a triangle whose three vertices are all lattice points. We investigate the integers $k$ with the property that if $T$ is a lattice…
We study certain lattices constructed from finite abelian groups. We show that such a lattice is eutactic, thereby confirming a conjecture by B\"ottcher, Eisenbarth, Fukshansky, Garcia, Maharaj. Our methods also yield simpler proofs of two…
As main result we show that for each g > 1 there is some translation surface of genus g whose Veech group is a non congruence subgroup of SL(2,Z). We use origamis/square-tiled surfaces to produce our examples. The article is divided into…
Using toric geometry, lattice theory, and elliptic surface techniques, we compute the Picard Lattice of certain K3 surfaces. In particular, we examine the generic member of each of M. Reid's list of 95 families of Gorenstein K3 surfaces…
Theoretical and computational advances in lattice calculations are reviewed, with focus on examples relevant to the unitarity triangle of the CKM matrix. Recent progress in semi-leptonic form factors for B -> pi l nu and B -> D* l nu, as…
In this paper, we construct holomorphic families of Riemann surfaces from Veech groups and characterize their sections by some points of corresponding flat surfaces. The construction gives us concrete solutions for some Diophantine…
Complex hyperbolic triangle groups were first considered by Mostow in building the first nonarithmetic lattices in PU(2, 1). They are a natural generalization of the classical triangle groups acting on the hyperbolic plane. A well-known…
The Leech lattice, $\Lambda_{24}$, is represented on the space of octonionic 3-vectors. It is built from two octonionic representations of $E_{8}$, and is reached via $\Lambda_{16}$. It is invariant under the octonion index cycling and…
We present a method to obtain families of lattice equations. Specifically we focus on two of such families, which include 3-parameters and their members are connected through B\"acklund transformations. At least one of the members of each…
Two lattice points are visible to one another if there exist no other lattice points on the line segment connecting them. In this paper we study convex lattice polygons that contain a lattice point such that all other lattice points in the…
In the context of quark (as for lepton) mixing, we introduce the concept of the matrix of unitarity triangle angles $\Phi$, emphasising that it carries equivalent information to the complex mixing matrix $V$ itself. The angle matrix $\Phi$…
We use the functional representation of Heisenberg-Weyl group and obtain equation for the spectrum of the model, which is more complicated than Bethes ones, but can be written explicitly through theta functions.
We define an infinite series of translation coverings of Veech's double-n-gon for odd n greater or equal to 5 which share the same Veech group. Additionally we give an infinite series of translation coverings with constant Veech group of a…
We study the Veech group of an origami, i.e. of a translation surface, tessellated by parallelograms. We show that it is isomorphic to the image of a certain subgroup of Aut(F_2) in SL_2(Z) = Out^+(F_2). Based on this we present an…
We represent Feigin's construction [11] of lattice W algebras and give some simple results: lattice Virasoro and $W_3$ algebras. For simplest case $g=sl(2)$ we introduce whole $U_q(sl(2))$ quantum group on this lattice. We find simplest…
We announce results about the structure and arithmeticity of all possible lattice embeddings of a class of countable groups which encompasses all linear groups with simple Zariski closure, all groups with non-vanishing first l2-Betti…
