In this letter a generic counterexample to the strong cosmic censor conjecture is exhibited. More precisely---taking into account that the conjecture lacks any precise formulation yet---first we make sense of what one would mean by a…

We show how the Fourier transform of a shape in any number of dimensions can be simplified using Gauss's law and evaluated explicitly for polygons in two dimensions, polyhedra three dimensions, etc. We also show how this combination of…

This article presents an improvement and extension of the heuristic first presented by Hougardy, Lutz, and Zelke in 2010 for realizing triangulated orientable surfaces with few vertices by a simplex-wise linear embedding. The improvement…

We implement an algorithm RSHT (Random Simple-Homotopy) to study the simple-homotopy types of simplicial complexes, with a particular focus on contractible spaces and on finding substructures in higher-dimensional complexes. The algorithm…

We describe in this paper a geometric construction in the projective p-adic plane that gives, together with a suitable notion of p-adic convexity, some open subsets of P 2 .Q p / naturally endowed with a "Hilbert" distance and a transitive…

Using an iterative tree construction we show that for simple computable subsets of the Cantor space Hausdorff, constructive and computable dimensions might be incomputable.

For some geometries including symplectic and contact structures on an n-dimensional manifold, we introduce a two-step approach to Gromov's h-principle. From formal geometric data, the first step builds a transversely geometric Haefliger…

We construct indefinite Einstein solvmanifolds that are standard, but not of pseudo-Iwasawa type. Thus, the underlying Lie algebras take the form $\mathfrak{g}\rtimes_D\mathbb{R}$, where $\mathfrak{g}$ is a nilpotent Lie algebra and $D$ is…

We consider a directed variant of the negative-weight percolation model in a two-dimensional, periodic, square lattice. The problem exhibits edge weights which are taken from a distribution that allows for both positive and negative values.…

Motivated by the recent successes of particle models in capturing the precession and interactions of vortex structures in quasi-two-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensates, we revisit the relevant systems of ordinary differential equations.…

We construct a sequence of subset partition graphs satisfying the dimension reduction, adjacency, strong adjacency, and endpoint count properties whose diameter has a superlinear asymptotic lower bound. These abstractions of polytope graphs…

Consider two half-spaces $H_1^+$ and $H_2^+$ in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ whose bounding hyperplanes $H_1$ and $H_2$ are orthogonal and pass through the origin. The intersection $\mathbb{S}_{2,+}^d:=\mathbb{S}^d\cap H_1^+\cap H_2^+$ is a spherical…

Starting from a unitary, Lorentz invariant two-particle scattering amplitude , we show how to use an identification and replacement process to construct a unique, unitary particle-antiparticle amplitude. This process differs from…

We develop a systematic method for analyzing the causal structure at vertices in (2+1)-dimensional Lorentzian simplicial gravity. By examining the intersection patterns of lightcones emanating from a vertex with its simplicial…

We study bounded remainder sets with respect to an irrational rotation of the $d$-dimensional torus. The subject goes back to Hecke, Ostrowski and Kesten who characterized the intervals with bounded remainder in dimension one. First we…

We discuss questions arising from the work of Schellekens. After introducing the concept of complementary representations, we examine $Z_2$-orbifold constructions in general, and propose a technique for identifying the orbifold theory…

We prove the filling area conjecture in the hyperelliptic case. In particular, we establish the conjecture for all genus 1 fillings of the circle, extending P. Pu's result in genus 0. We translate the problem into a question about closed…

We further the study of local profiles of trees. Bubeck and Linial showed that the set of 5-profiles contains a certain polytope, namely the convex hull of d-millipedes, and they proved that the segment [0-millipede, 1-millipede]…

Multishape metamaterials exhibit more than one target shape change, e.g. the same metamaterial can have either a positive or negative Poisson's ratio. So far, multishape metamaterials have mostly been obtained by trial-and-error. The…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a simple Lie algebra. We study 1/2-BPS Wilson loops of supersymmetric 5d $\mathfrak{g}$-type quiver gauge theories on a circle, in a non-trivial instanton background. The Wilson loops are codimension 4 defects of the…
