This is a survey of recent developments in combinatorics. The goal is to give a big picture of its many interactions with other areas of mathematics, such as: group theory, representation theory, commutative algebra, geometry (including…
Congruences of Fourier coefficients of modular forms have long been an object of central study. By comparison, the arithmetic of other expansions of modular forms, in particular Taylor expansions around points in the upper-half plane, has…
We present a mathematical derivation of some of the most important physical quantities arising in topological bilayer systems with permutation twist defects as introduced by Barkeshli et al. in cond-mat/1208.4834. A crucial tool is the…
In [J14], a conjecture was proposed on a relation between the global Arthur parameters and the structure of Fourier coefficients of the automorphic representations in the corresponding global Arthur packets. In this paper, we discuss the…
This book is an introduction to the nascent field of Fourier analysis on polytopes, and cones. There is a rapidly growing number of applications of these methods, so it is appropriate to invite students, as well as professionals, to the…
This is an informal set of lecture notes on moduli spaces of curves based on a set of lectures given at the ICTP last summer. It begins at an elementary level and discusses the genus 1 case in detail. The notes then give an informal…
We study Poncelet's Theorem in finite projective coordinate planes over the field $GF(p)$ and concentrate on a particular pencil of conics. For pairs of such conics we investigate whether we can find polygons with $n$ sides, which are…
Phase singularities as topological objects of wave fields appear in a variety of physical, chemical, and biological scenarios. In this paper, by making use of the $\phi$-mapping topological current theory, we study the topological…
Relativistic phase space distributions are very interesting objects as they allow one to gather the information extracted from various types of experiments into a single coherent picture. Focusing on the four-dimensional transverse phase…
This is the material for two lectures given at Ecole Polytechnique in May 2011 for the math teachers of "classes pr\'eparatoires"(parallel to the undergraduate classes in universities). The introduction is a personal overview on Fourier…
We offer some partition functions related to ternary quadratic forms, and note on their upper bounds and related properties. We offer these results as an application of a simple method related to conjugate Bailey pairs presented in a prior…
We review and elaborate on our discussion in hep-th/0606112 on the interplay between the target space and the worldsheet description of the open topological string partition function, for the example of the conifold. We discuss the…
A theoretical study of toroidal membranes with various degrees of intrinsic orientational order is presented at mean-field level. The study uses a simple Ginzburg-Landau style free energy functional, which gives rise to a rich variety of…
These lecture notes provide a relatively self-contained introduction to field theoretic methods employed in the study of classical and quantum phase transitions.
We obtain for the Kempner series (i.e. harmonic series where certain digits are excluded from all denominators, for example the digit 9 in base 10) new representations as geometrically convergent series. The coefficients for these…
A fixed set of vertices in the plane may have multiple planar straight-line triangulations in which the degree of each vertex is the same. As such, the degree information does not completely determine the triangulation. We show that even if…
The note complements topological aspects of the theory of chiral algebras.
We consider Tuenter polynomials as linear combinations of descending factorials and show that coefficients of these linear combinations are expressed via a Catalan triangle of numbers. We also describe a triangle of coefficients in terms of…
In this paper the analysis of the result of numerical simulations of pasta phases using algebraic topology methods is presented. These considerations suggest that some phases can be further split into (sub)phases and therefore should be…
We study a generalization of the classical Riemannian Tonnetz to N-tone equally tempered scales (for all N) and arbitrary triads. We classify all the spaces that result. The torus turns out to be the most common possibility, especially as N…
