Polytope exchange transformations (PETs) are higher dimensional generalizations of interval exchange transformations (IETs) which have been well-studied for more than 40 years. A general method of constructing PETs based on multigraphs was…
This is a sequel to my paper "The Octagonal PET I: Renormalization and Hyperbolic Symmetry". In this paper we use the renormalization scheme found in the first paper to classify the limit sets of the systems according to their topology. The…
Let $\mathcal{M}_{2N}(\delta_1, \delta_2,\dots, \delta_N)$ be the moduli space of centrally symmetric convex polyhedral surfaces with $2N$ labeled vertices and prescribed cone-deficits $\delta_1$, $\delta_2$, $\dots$, $\delta_N$. We show…
We find a new solution of the renormalization group for the Potts model with ferromagnetic random valued coupling constants. The solution exhibits universality and broken replica symmetry. It is argued that the model reaches this…
Renormalization group calculations are used to give exact solutions for rigidity percolation on hierarchical lattices. Algebraic scaling transformations for a simple example in two dimensions produce a transition of second order, with an…
We study renormalisation group (RG) corrections relevant for leptogenesis in the case of family symmetry models such as the Altarelli-Feruglio A4 model of tri-bimaximal lepton mixing or its extension to tri-maximal mixing. Such corrections…
In $\mathrm{PU}(2,1)$, the group of holomorphic isometries of the complex hyperbolic plane, we study the space of involutions $R_1, R_2, R_3, R_4, R_5$ satisfying $R_5R_4R_3R_2R_1=1$, where $R_1$ is a reflection in a complex geodesic and…
We introduce and study the notions of hyperbolically embedded and very rotating families of subgroups. The former notion can be thought of as a generalization of the peripheral structure of a relatively hyperbolic group, while the later one…
Layers of two-dimensional materials arranged at a twist angle with respect to each other lead to enlarged unit cells with potentially strongly altered band structures, offering a new arena for novel and engineered many-body ground states.…
This paper asks if the following iterative procedure approximately orthogonalizes a set of $n$ linearly independent unit vectors while preserving their span: in each iteration, access a random pair of vectors and replace one with the…
Network geometry is currently a topic of growing scientific interest as it opens the possibility to explore and interpret the interplay between structure and dynamics of complex networks using geometrical arguments. However the field is…
An image or volume of interest in positron emission tomography (PET) is reconstructed from pairs of gamma rays emitted from a radioactive substance. Many image reconstruction methods are based on estimation of pixels or voxels on some…
We prove that the generator of the renormalization group of Potts models on hierarchical lattices can be represented by a rational map acting on a finite-dimensional product of complex projective spaces. In this framework we can also…
The generalized CP transformations can only be consistently defined in the context of $\Delta(3n^2)$ lepton symmetry if a certain subset of irreducible representations are present in a model. We perform a comprehensive analysis of the…
This paper examines the representations of hyperbolic integral homology spheres into the binary icosahedral group $2I$. We specifically give a geometric meaning to $2I$ representations by relating them to Larsen's notion of quotient…
We show local rigidity of hyperbolic triangle groups generated by reflections in pairs of $n$-dimensional subspaces of $R^{2n}$ obtained by composition of the geometric representation in $PGL(2, R)$ with the diagonal embeddings into…
We describe a 2 parameter family of polygon exchange transformations parameterized by points in a square. Whenever the two parameters are irrational, the polygon exchange has periodic orbits of arbitrarily large period. We show that for…
The rational Cherednik algebra $\HH$ is a certain algebra of differential-reflection operators attached to a complex reflection group $W$. Each irreducible representation $S^\lambda$ of $W$ corresponds to a standard module $M(\lambda)$ for…
Let M denote either Euclidean or hyperbolic n-space, and let G be a discrete group of isometries of M, with the property that G respects and acts tile-transitively on a convex-polyhedral tesselation of M. Given an arbitrary base point p in…
The automorphisms of a two-generator free group acting on the space of orientation-preserving isometric actions of on hyperbolic 3-space defines a dynamical system. Those actions which preserve a hyperbolic plane but not an orientation on…
