We relate the graph isomorphism problem to the solvability of certain systems of linear equations with nonnegative variables. This version replaces the two previous versions of this paper.
In aperiodic order, non-periodic but "ordered" objects such as tilings, Delone sets, functions and measures are investigated. In this article we depict the common structure of these objects by using the general framework of abstract pattern…
We present a variety of geometrical and combinatorial tools that are used in the study of geometric structures on surfaces: volume, contact, symplectic, complex and almost complex structures. We start with a series of local rigidity results…
Considered is the problem of local equivalence of generic four-dimensional metrics possessing two commuting and orthogonally transitive Killing vector fields. A sufficient set of eight differential invariants is explicitly constructed,…
The key result in the present paper is a direct analogue of the celebrated Thurston's Theorem for marked Thurston maps with parabolic orbifolds. Combining this result with previously developed techniques, we prove that every Thurston map…
A polygonal complex in euclidean 3-space is a discrete polyhedron-like structure with finite or infinite polygons as faces and finite graphs as vertex-figures, such that a fixed number r of faces surround each edge. It is said to be regular…
In this paper we explain the parallelism in the classification of three different kinds of mathematical objects: (i) Classical r-matrices. (ii) Generalized cohomology theories that have Chern classes for complex vector bundles. (iii)…
A lemma of Tits establishes a connection between the simple connectivity of an incidence geometry and the universal completion of an amalgam induced by a sufficiently transitive group of automorphisms of that geometry. In the present paper,…
We compare three notions of genericity of separable metric structures. Our analysis provides a general model theoretic technique of showing that structures are generic in descriptive set theoretic (topological) sense and in measure…
We review the language of differential forms and their applications to Riemannian Geometry with an orientation to General Relativity. Working with the principal algebraic and differential operations on forms, we obtain the structure…
In this document, we study the interaction between different geometric structures that can be defined as morphisms of sections of the generalized tangent bundle $\mathbb TM:= TM\oplus T^*M\to M$. In particular, we show the behaviour of…
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…
The paper presents the bosonic and fermionic supersymmetric extensions of the structural equations describing conformally parametrized surfaces immersed in a Grasmann superspace, based on the authors' earlier results. A detailed analysis of…
The conditions determining that two triangles are congruent play a basic role in planimetry. By comparing not congruent triangles with respect to given sets of corresponding elements it is important to discover if they have any common…
A PhD thesis written under supervision of Pawel Nurowski and defended at the Faculty of Physics of the University of Warsaw. We adress the problems of local equivalence and geometry of third order ODEs modulo contact, point and…
We classify compact 2-connected homogeneous spaces with the same rational cohomology as a product of spheres. This classification relies on spectral sequences, homotopy theory, and representation theory. We then apply this classification to…
We consider the local equivalence problem for the class of linear second order hyperbolic equations in two independent variables under an action of the pseudo-group of contact transformations. E. Cartan's method is used for finding the…
We consider the deformation theory of two kinds of geometric objects: foliations on one hand, pre-symplectic forms on the other. For each of them, we prove that the geometric notion of equivalence given by isotopies agrees with the…
In this paper, we introduce a notion of geometric surgery for flag structures, which are geometric structures locally modelled on the three-dimensional flag space under the action of ${\mathrm{PGL}}_3(\mathbb{R})$. Using such surgeries we…
A crucial step in the history of General Relativity was Einstein's adoption of the principle of general covariance which demands a coordinate independent formulation for our spacetime theories. General covariance helps us to disentangle a…
