This manuscript summarizes the outcome of the focus groups at "The f(A)bulous workshop on matrix functions and exponential integrators", held at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics of Complex Technical Systems in Magdeburg, Germany, on…
These notes are from a 4-lecture mini-course taught by the author at the conference on von Neumann algebras as part of the ``Geometrie non commutative en mathematiques et physique'' month at CIRM in 2004.
We study the relaxation processes of the infinitely long-range interaction model (the Husimi-Temperley model) near the spinodal point. We propose a unified finite-size scaling function near the spinodal point, including the metastable…
This volume constitutes the proceedings of LFMTP 2015, the Tenth International Workshop on Logical Frameworks and Meta-Languages: Theory and Practice, held on August 1st, 2015 in Berlin, Germany. The workshop was a one-day satellite event…
Our title challenges the reader to venture beyond linear algebra in designing models and in thinking about numerical algorithms for identifying solutions. This article accompanies the author's lecture at the International Congress of…
This PhD dissertation covers a range of topics in Finsler geometry and Finsler gravity, most notably: (i) the characterization of Berwald spaces, (ii) pseudo-Riemann (non-)metrizability of Berwald spaces, (iii) $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics,…
This article was prepared in connection with the 2009 Barnett lecture at the University of Cincinnati, and deals with various classes of fractal sets and analysis on them.
Multidimensional scaling (MDS) is a dimensionality reduction tool used for information analysis, data visualization and manifold learning. Most MDS procedures embed data points in low-dimensional Euclidean (flat) domains, such that…
This document contains the notes of a lecture I gave at the "Journ\'ees Nationales du Calcul Formel" (JNCF) on January 2017. The aim of the lecture was to discuss low-level algorithmics for p-adic numbers. It is divided into two main parts:…
Talk given at ICM '98, Berlin, reviewing some of the recent developments in understanding of string theory for a mathematical audience (to appear in Documenta Mathematica).
We consider Hilbert algebras with a supplementary Fr\'echet topology and get various extensions of the algebraic structure by using duality techniques. In particular we obtain optimal multiplier-type involutive algebras, which in…
Those notes rest on the Samuel Eilenberg Lectures I gave at Columbia University, NY, in the fall 2022. I thank all the mathematicians who participated in their elaboration, directly or indirectly. They are meant to be published as a…
These are the notes of the three lectures I delivered at the mini-workshop "Knot Theory and Number Theory around the A-Polynomial" at the Instituto Superior Tecnico (IST) in Lisbon in January 2014. The goal of the lectures was to…

A fractal is in essence a hierarchy with cascade structure, which can be described with a set of exponential functions. From these exponential functions, a set of power laws indicative of scaling can be derived. Hierarchy structure and…
We show the existence of a fully polynomial-time approximation scheme (FPTAS) for the problem of maximizing a non-negative polynomial over mixed-integer sets in convex polytopes, when the number of variables is fixed. Moreover, using a…
A \emph{fractal} is an object exhibiting complexity at arbitrarily small scales. In order to study and characterise fractals, one is often interested in quantifying how they fill up space on small scales. This gives rise to various notions…
This textbook is based on lectures given by the authors at MIPT (Moscow), HSE (Moscow), FEFU (Vladivostok), V.I. Vernadsky KFU (Simferopol), ASU (Republic of Adygea), and the University of Grenoble-Alpes (Grenoble, France). First of all,…
We discuss the motivation and the phenomenology of models with either flat or warped extra dimensions. We describe the typical mass spectrum and discovery signatures of such models at the LHC. We also review several proposed methods for…
Geodesic distance matrices can reveal shape properties that are largely invariant to non-rigid deformations, and thus are often used to analyze and represent 3-D shapes. However, these matrices grow quadratically with the number of points.…
