We review the fundamental ideas of quantizing a theory on a Light Front including the Hamiltonian approach to the problem of bound states on the Light Front and the limiting transition from formulating a theory in Lorentzian coordinates…
Given a reflection $r$ in a Coxeter group $W$ (possibly of infinite rank), we consider the subgroup of $W$ generated by the reflections in $W$ having (-1)-eigenvectors orthogonal to the (-1)-eigenvector of $r$. In this paper, we determine…
We study the limit geometry of complete projective special real manifolds. By limit geometry we mean the limit of the evolution of the defining polynomial and the centro-affine fundamental form along certain curves that leave every compact…
This is the first of a series of papers which define and study structures called rootoids, which are groupoids equipped with a representation in the category of Boolean rings and with an associated 1-cocycle. The axioms for rootoids are…
We consider the "limiting behavior" of *discriminants*, by which we mean informally the locus in some parameter space of some type of object where the objects have certain singularities. We focus on the space of partially labeled points on…
We exhibit two examples of convex cocompact subgroups of the isometry groups of real hyperbolic spaces with limit set a Pontryagin sphere: one generated by $50$ reflections of $\mathbb{H}^4$, and the other by a rotation of order $21$ and a…
In this paper we show that it is possible to structure the longitudinal polarization component of light. We illustrate our approach by demonstrating linked and knotted longitudinal vortex lines acquired upon non-paraxially propagating a…
We consider non-bijective piecewise rotations of the plane. These maps belong to a family introduced in previous papers by Boshernitzan and Goetz. We derive in this paper some upper bounds to the size of the limit set. This improves results…
A Potts model with a reflecting boundary is introduced and it is shown that its partition function can be expressed as a Markov trace on the Temperley-Lieb Algebra of Coxeter type B.
Let $W$ be a finite Coxeter group. We classify the reflection subgroups of $W$ up to conjugacy and give necessary and sufficient conditions for the map that assigns to a reflection subgroup $R$ of $W$ the conjugacy class of its Coxeter…
A connection between real poles of the growth functions for Coxeter groups acting on hyperbolic space of dimensions three and greater and algebraic integers is investigated. In particular, a geometric convergence of fundamental domains for…
We formalize the notion of limit of an inverse system of metric spaces with $1$-Lipschitz projections having unbounded fibers. The purpose is to use sub-Riemannian groups for metrizing the space of signatures of rectifiable paths in…
Quaternionic representations of Coxeter (reflection) groups of ranks 3 and 4, as well as those of E_8, have been used extensively in the literature. The present paper analyses such Coxeter groups in the Clifford Geometric Algebra framework,…
The article produces a brief review of some recent results which predict stable propagation of solitons and solitary vortices in models based on the nonlinear Schroedinger equation including fractional one- or two-dimensional diffraction…
We describe multiple correlations of Jordan and Cartan spectra for any finite number of Anosov representations of a finitely generated group. This extends our previous work on correlations of length and displacement spectra for rank one…
This paper introduces some general properties of the gravitational metric and the natural basis of vectors and covectors in 4-dimensional emission coordinates. Emission coordinates are a class of space-time coordinates defined and generated…
Using the geometry of the projective plane over the finite field F_q, we construct a Hermitian Lorentzian lattice L_q of dimension (q^2 + q + 2) defined over a certain number ring $\cO$ that depends on q. We show that infinitely many of…
We present an approach for the study and design of reflectors with rotational or translational symmetry that redirect light from a point source into any desired radiant intensity distribution. This method is based on a simple conformal map…
H.S.M. Coxeter showed that a group $\Gamma$ is a finite reflection group of an Euclidean space if and only if $\Gamma$ is a finite Coxeter group. In this paper, we define {\it reflections} of geodesic spaces in general, and we prove that…
Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system and let $s \in S$. We call $s$ a right-angled generator of $(W,S)$ if $st = ts$ or $st$ has infinite order for each $t \in S$. We call $s$ an intrinsic reflection of $W$ if $s \in R^W$ for all Coxeter…
