This paper investigates how global decision problems over arithmetically represented domains acquire reflective structure through class-quantification. Arithmetization forces diagonal fixed points whose verification requires reflection…
We describe the duality between different geometries which arises by considering the classical and quantum harmonic map problem. To appear in ``Essays on Mirror Manifolds II''.
Many systems of interest to control engineering can be modeled by linear complementarity problems. We introduce a new notion of equivalence between linear complementarity problems that sets the basis to translate the powerful tools of…
The purpose of this paper is twofold. In the first part we concentrate on hyperplane sections of algebraic schemes, and present results for determining when Gr\"obner bases pass to the quotient and when they can be lifted. The main…
We describe various structures of algebraic nature on the space of continuous valuations on convex sets, their properties (like versions of Poincar\'e duality and hard Lefschetz theorem), and their relations and applications to integral…
We study curvature-adapted submanifolds of general symmetric spaces. We generalize Cartan's theorem for isoparametric hypersurfaces of spheres and Wang's classification of isoparametric Hopf hypersurfaces in complex projective spaces to any…
In this paper we give a general geometrical framework for working with problems that can be described as a structure-preserving submersion defined on a suitable space with a geometrical structure. We give many examples of how to formulate…
Theoretical equivalence and duality are two closely related notions: but their interconnection has so far not been well understood. In this paper I explicate the contribution of a recent schema for duality to discussions of theoretical…
A linear system of difference equations and a nonlinear perturbation are considered, we obtain sufficient conditions to ensure the topological equivalence between them, namely, the linear part satisfies a property of dichotomy on the…
Exhibiting a deep connection between purely geometric problems and real algebra, the complexity class $\exists \mathbb{R}$ plays a crucial role in the study of geometric problems. Sometimes $\exists \mathbb{R}$ is referred to as the 'real…
This work explores the deformation theory of algebraic structures in a very general setting. These structures include commutative, associative algebras, Lie algebras, and the infinity versions of these structures, the strongly homotopy…
We initiate the study of correspondences for Smale spaces. Correspondences are shown to provide a notion of a generalized morphism between Smale spaces and are a special case of finite equivalences. Furthermore, for shifts of finite type, a…
We study equivariant real structures on spherical varieties. We call such a structure canonical if it is equivariant with respect to the involution defining the split real form of the acting reductive group G. We prove the existence and…
For a given family of similar shapes, what we call a "unit shape" strongly analogizes the role of the unit circle within the family of all circles. Within many such families of similar shapes, we present what we believe is naturally and…
We use representation theory to construct spaces of matrices of constant rank. These spaces are parametrized by the natural representation of the general linear group or the symplectic group. We present variants of this idea, with more…
Normed division and Clifford algebras have been extensively used in the past as a mathematical framework to accommodate the structures of the standard model and grand unified theories. Less discussed has been the question of why such…
The approach to incorporate quantum effects in gravity by replacing free particle geodesics with Bohmian non-geodesic trajectories has an equivalent description in terms of a conformally related geometry, where the motion is force free,…
The aim of this text is to extend the theory of generalized ordinary differential equations to the setting of metric spaces. We present existence and uniqueness theorems that significantly improve previous results even when restricted back…
We investigate point arrangements $v_i\in\mathbb R^d,i\in \{1,...,n \}$ with certain prescribed symmetries. The arrangement space of $v$ is the column span of the matrix in which the $v_i$ are the rows. We characterize properties of $v$ in…
This article is concerned with causal structures, which are defined as a field of tangentially non-degenerate projective hypersurfaces in the projectivized tangent bundle of a manifold. The local equivalence problem of causal structures on…
