We reformulate several known results about continued fractions in combinatorial terms. Among them the theorem of Conway and Coxeter and that of Series, both relating continued fractions and triangulations. More general polygon dissections…
These notes are based on a series of lectures given by the author at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences in Leipzig. Addressed topics include affine and projective toric varieties, abstract normal toric varieties from…
These notes briefly discuss Fourier transforms of finite measures and extensions of Fourier integrals to points in complex domains.
This article deals with the construction of surfaces that are suitable for representing pentachords or 5-pitch segments that are in the same $T/I$ class. It is a generalization of the well known \"Ottingen-Riemann torus for triads of…
This is an expository talk on a topic of classical analysis, arising from the VMO theory of the topological degree due to Br\'ezis and Nirenberg (1995). We sketch the history of the subject and some of its recent developments. The paper is…
A toric arrangement is an arrangement of subtori of codimension one in a real or complex torus. The poset of layers is the set of connected components of non-empty intersections of these subtori, partially ordered by reverse inclusion. In…
The purpose of this paper is to initiate a phase theory for tensors under the Einstein product, and explore its applications in multilinear control systems. Firstly, the sectorial tensor decomposition for sectorial tensors is derived, which…
We give a definition of a what we call a `tonnetz' on a triangulated surface, generalising the famous tonnetz of Euler from 1739. In Euler's tonnetz the vertices of a regular `$A_2$ triangulation' of the plane are labelled with notes, or…
This comprehensive review paper delves into the intricacies of advanced Fourier type integral transforms and their mathematical properties, with a particular focus on fractional Fourier transform (FrFT), linear canonical transform (LCT),…
These notes, connected to a "potpourri" topics class currently underway, discuss some basic topics in analysis and connections with other areas of mathematics.
This short Perspective article presents an overview of the discovery of topological $\pi$ modes as well as their physical significance in quantum computing and the understanding of an exotic phase of matter, i.e., the Floquet time crystal.…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of "extension" of a toric variety and study its fundamental properties. This gives rise to infinitely many toric varieties with a special property, such as being set theoretic complete intersection or…
This review summarizes the recent developments in topological string theory from the author's perspective, mostly focused on aspects of research in which the author is involved. After a brief overview of the theory, we discuss two aspects…
Enlarging on Parts I, II, and III we write more equations in the desired format of the extended abstract theory of composites. We focus on a multitude of equations involving higher order derivatives. The motivation is that results and…
We develop a theory of oscillatory integrals whose phase is given by the trace of a polynomial over an algebraic number field. We present an application to the singular integral for a version of Tarry's problem for algebraic integers.
In this paper, we define the phases of a complex sectorial matrix to be its canonical angles, which are uniquely determined from a sectorial decomposition of the matrix. Various properties of matrix phases are studied, including those of…
Given the toric (or toral) arrangement defined by a root system $\Phi$, we describe the poset of its layers (connected components of intersections) and we count its elements. Indeed we show how to reduce to zero-dimensional layers, and in…
The lectures are devoted to a remarkable class of $3$-dimensional polytopes, which are mathematical models of the important object of quantum physics, quantum chemistry and nanotechnology -- fullerenes. The main goal is to show how results…
We introduce the theoretical framework we use to study the bewildering variety of phases in condensed--matter physics. We emphasize the importance of the breaking of symmetries, and develop the idea of an order parameter through several…
I study theoretically quadrupolar topological insulators under applied static electric field rotated along the crystal axis. I demonstrate, that the energy spectrum of this structure is a Wannier-Stark ladder that is quantized and directly…
