These condensed notes treat some basic notions in Tropical Geometry (varieties, cycles, modifications, equivalence). These topics are to be extended, illustrated and included to the upcoming book project…
The traditional study of plane and space algebraic curves by looking at their tangent vectors, curvatures and torsions provides geometric, but unfortunately not sufficient information about individual curves in order to be able to…
We study joint distributions of cycles and patterns in permutations written in standard cycle form. We explore both classical and generalised patterns of length 2 and 3. Many extensions of classical theory are achieved; bivariate generating…
We provide a complete structure theorem for involutory matrices. This yields a new approach to principal angles between subspaces and provide a series of nice formulae for these angles.
This survey paper describes the role of splines in geometry and topology, emphasizing both similarities and differences from the classical treatment of splines. The exposition is non-technical and contains many examples, with references to…
In this talk we discuss the interplay of two elliptic curves, which occur in different sub-sectors of Feynman integrals. We analyse a particular Feynman integral depending on two elliptic curves and derive an associated differential…
In arXiv:2205.02920 a variant of the classical elastic flow for closed curves in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ was introduced, that is more suitable for numerical purposes. Here we investigate the long-time properties of such evolution demonstrating…
This talk reviews Feynman integrals, which are associated to elliptic curves. The talk will give an introduction into the mathematics behind them, covering the topics of elliptic curves, elliptic integrals, modular forms and the moduli…
We collect and present in a unified way several results in recent years about the elastic flow of curves and networks, trying to draw the state of the art of the subject. In particular, we give a complete proof of global existence and…
We introduce orbifolds from the classical point of view, using charts, and present orbifold versions of elementary objects from Algebraic Topology, such as the fundamental group, coverings and Euler characteristic; Differential…
We give a survey of the Lagrange inversion formula, including different versions and proofs, with applications to combinatorial and formal power series identities.
We consider some variations on the classical method of Runge for effectively determining integral points on certain curves. We first prove a version of Runge's theorem valid for higher-dimensional varieties, generalizing a uniform version…
We introduce a bulging triangle like the generalization of the Reuleaux triangle. We may be able to propose various ways to bulge a triangle, but this paper presents the way so that its vertices are the same as them of the original…
This article defines a new family of curves in space, whose graphs generate shapes similar to whirls. An intrinsic equation is found, in terms of curvature and torsion, which gives necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of…
These lecture notes provide a self-contained introduction to Euler integrals, which are frequently encountered in applications. In particle physics, they arise as Feynman integrals or string amplitudes. Our four selected topics demonstrate…
I discuss classical and quantum recurrence theorems in a unified manner, treating both as generalisations of the fact that a system with a finite state space only has so many places to go. Along the way I prove versions of the recurrence…
This paper gives a detailed derivation of the surface of a tri-axial ellipsoid. The general result is in terms of the elliptic integrals of the first and second kind. It is in checked for all special cases included and the corresponding…
We postulate the applicability of the general form-invariance principle in special relativity. It is shown that this principle holds in classical mechanics. Some examples of transformations between the reference frames which satisfy this…
General relativity can be recast as a theory of connections by performing a canonical transformation on its phase space. In this form, its (kinematical) structure is closely related to that of Yang-Mills theory and topological field…
We classify the Lagrangian orientable surfaces in complex space forms with the property that the ellipse of curvature is always a circle. As a consequence, we obtain new characterizations of the Clifford torus of the complex projective…
