Let $T$ be a theory which is t-minimal, meaning that with respect to some definable topology, a unary definable set $D \subseteq M$ has non-empty interior iff it is infinite. If $K$ is a definable field in $T$, then $K$ is finite or "large"…

This monograph introduces key concepts and problems in the new research area of Periodic Geometry and Topology for materials applications.Periodic structures such as solid crystalline materials or textiles were previously classified in…

Masures are generalizations of Bruhat-Tits buildings. They were introduced to study Kac-Moody groups over ultrametric fields, which generalize reductive groups over the same fields. If A and A are two apartments in a building, their…

Given an adjoint semisimple group $G$ over a local field $k$, we prove that the maximal Satake-Berkovich compactification of the Bruhat-Tits building of $G$ can be identified with the one obtained by embedding the building into the…

It is argued that the prevailing definition of quasicrystals, requiring them to contain an axis of symmetry that is forbidden in periodic crystals, is inadequate. This definition is too restrictive in that it excludes an important and…

Geometry of buildings is used to prove some homological properties of the category of smooth representations of a reductive p-adic group (Kazhdan's "pairing conjecture", Bernstein's description of homological duality in terms of…

Let G be a connected reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k. We consider the strata in G defined by Lusztig as fibers of a map given in terms truncated induction of Springer representations. We extend to arbitrary…

We present a diagram surveying equivalence or strict implication for properties of different nature (algebraic, model theoretic, topological, etc.) about groups definable in o-minimal structures. All results are well-known and an extensive…

Fractals such as the Cantor set can be equipped with intrinsic arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) that map the fractal into itself. The arithmetics allows one to define calculus and algebra intrinsic to…

In the present article, the main attention is given to fractal sets whose elements have certain restrictions on using digits or combinations of digits in own nega-P-representation. Topological, metric, and fractal properties of images of…

Let $Y$ be a locally complete intersection over $\mathcal{O}_K$ containing a $p$-power root of unity $\zeta_p$. We classify the derived category of prismatic crystals on the absolute prismatic site of $Y$ by studying quasi-coherent…

We prove a purely topological characterization of the Moufang property for disconnected compact polygons in terms of convergence groups. As a consequence, we recover the fact that a locally finite thick affine building of rank 3 is a…

By [6], a minimal group $G$ is called $z$-minimal if $G/Z(G)$ is minimal. In this paper, we present the $z$-Minimality Criterion for dense subgroups with some applications to topological matrix groups. For a locally compact group $G$, let…

In the present paper, as we did previously in [7], we investigate the relations between the geometric properties of tilings and the algebraic properties of associated relational structures. Our study is motivated by the existence of…

Let $G$ be a Lie group $G$ with representation $\rho$ on a real simple $G$-module $\mathbb{V}$. We will call the orbits of the induced action of $\rho$ on the projectivization $P\mathbb{V}$ the projective orbits, and projective orbits of…

A new class of self-similar ordered structures with non-crystallographic point symmetries is presented. Each of these structures, named superquasicrystals, is given as a section of a higher-dimensional "crystal" with recursive superlattice…

Using Klein's approach, geometry can be studied in terms of a space of points and a group of transformations of that space. This allows us to apply algebraic tools in studying geometry of mathematical structures. In this article, we follow…

Predicting and characterizing the crystal structure of materials is a key problem in materials research and development. It is typically addressed with highly accurate quantum mechanical computations on a small set of candidate structures,…

Clustering procedure for the case where instead of a fixed metric one applies a family of metrics is considered. In this case instead of a classification tree one obtains a classification network (a directed acyclic graph with non directed…

We study the homology and the Borel-Moore homology with coefficients in $\mathbb{Q}$ of a quotient (called arithmetic quotient) of the Bruhat-Tits building of $\mathrm{PGL}$ of a nonarchimedean local field of positive characteristic by an…
