We first give a complete, albeit brief, review of the discovery of mirror symmetry in $N=2$ string/conformal field theory. In particular, we describe the naturality arguments which led to the initial mirror symmetry conjectures and the…
The aim of this paper is to study ultralimits of pointed metric measure spaces (possibly unbounded and having infinite mass). We prove that ultralimits exist under mild assumptions and are consistent with the pointed measured…
We prove that compact Hausdorff spaces with a $\mathbb{P}$-diagonal are metrizable.
We study the complexity of isomorphism of classes of metric structures using methods from infinitary continuous logic. For Borel classes of locally compact structures, we prove that if the equivalence relation of isomorphism is potentially…
We prove that all spaces of finite Assouad-Nagata dimension admit a good order for Travelling Salesman Problem, and provide sufficient conditions under which the converse is true. We formulate a conjectural characterisation of spaces of…
Let $\Omega$ denote an algebra of sets and $\mu$ a $\sigma$-finite measure. We then prove that the completion of $\Omega$ under the pseudometric $d(A,B)$ = $\mu^{\ast}(A \triangle B)$ is $\sigma$-algebra isomorphic and isometric to the…
Manifolds have uses throughout and beyond Mathematics and it is not surprising that topologists have expended a huge effort in trying to understand them. In this article we are particularly interested in the question: `when is a manifold…
A generalization of metric space is presented which is shown to admit a theory strongly related to that of ordinary metric spaces. To avoid the topological effects related to dropping any of the axioms of metric space, first a new, and…
We try to explain the differences between the concepts of stratifiable space and $\varkappa$-metrizable space. In particular, we give a characterization of $\varkappa$-metrizable spaces which is modelled on Chigogidze's characterization.…
Complex metrics are a double-edged sword: they allow one to replace singular spacetimes, such as those containing a big bang, with regular metrics, yet they can also describe unphysical solutions in which quantum transitions may be more…
We study a generalization of the well-known disjoint paths problem which we call the metric Menger problem, denoted MM(r,k), where one is given two subsets of a graph and must decide whether they can be connected by $k$ paths of pairwise…
A ghost-free theory of gravity with two dynamical metrics both coupled to matter is shown to be consistent and viable. Its cosmological implications are studied, and the models, in particular in the context of partially massless gravity,…
Recent links between Finsler Geometry and the geometry of spacetimes are briefly revisited, and prospective ideas and results are explained. Special attention is paid to geometric problems with a direct motivation in Relativity and other…
The most impressively prolific exploration of superstring models (aiming for our physical reality) has been focused on worldsheet-supersymmetric gauged linear sigma models and the closely associated complex-algebraic toric geometry. Mirror…
A modified Mimetic gravity (MMG) is proposed as a generalization of general relativity. The model contain a physical metric which is function of an auxiliary (unphysical) metric and a Lyra's metric. We construct different kinds of…
Magnitude homology is an $\mathbf{R}^+$-graded homology theory of metric spaces that captures information on the complexity of geodesics. Here we address the question: when are two metric spaces magnitude homology equivalent, in the sense…
The dominance of string theory in the research landscape of quantum gravity physics (despite any direct experimental evidence) can, I think, be justified in a variety of ways. Here I focus on an argument from mathematical fertility, broadly…
Mirror symmetry relates type IIB string theory on a Calabi-Yau 3-fold to type IIA on the mirror CY manifold, whose complex structure and Kaehler moduli spaces are exchanged. We show that the mirror map is a particular case of a more general…
In this paper we introduce a metrics on the space of idempotent probability measures on a given compactum, which extends the metrics on the compactum. It is proven the introduced metrics generates the pointwise convergence topology on the…
We prove a convergence theorem on the moduli space of constant $\sigma_{2}$ metrics for conic 4-spheres. We show that when a numerical condition is convergent to the boundary case, the geometry of conic 4-spheres converges to the boundary…
