This is the second in a series of papers dedicated to studying w-knots, and more generally, w-knotted objects (w-braids, w-tangles, etc.). These are classes of knotted objects that are wider but weaker than their "usual" counterparts. To…
For a graph G embedded in an orientable surface \Sigma, we consider associated links L(G) in the thickened surface \Sigma \times I. We relate the HOMFLY polynomial of L(G) to the recently defined Bollobas-Riordan polynomial of a ribbon…
In analogy to the disjoint cycle decomposition in permutation groups, Ore and Specht define a decomposition of elements of the full monomial group and exploit this to describe conjugacy classes and centralisers of elements in the full…
We introduce a notion of Poincar\'e duality for pairs of $\infty$-categories, extending Poincar\'e-Lefschetz duality for pairs of spaces. This categorical extension yields an efficient book-keeping device that affords, among other things, a…
In two articles by Barthel, Brasselet, Fieseler and Kaup, and, Bressler and Lunts, a combinatorial theory of intersection cohomology and perverse sheaves has been developed on fans. In the first one, one tried to present everything on an…
The variant of Fedosov construction based on fairly general fiberwise product in the Weyl bundle is studied. We analyze generalized star products of functions, of sections of endomorphisms bundle, and those generating deformed bimodule…
In [A. Berele, Computing super matrix invariants, {\it Advances in Applied Math. \bf48} (2012), 273--289.] we defined integrals that approximated the Poincar\'e series of the invariants and concomitants of the general linear Lie supergroup…
We propose a gauge model of quantum electrodynamics (QED) and its nonabelian generalization from which we derive knot invariants such as the Jones polynomial. Our approach is inspired by the work of Witten who derived knot invariants from…
We linearize the inverse branches of the iterates of holomorphic endomorphisms of CP(k) and thus overcome the lack of Koebe distortion theorem in this setting when k $\ge$ 2. We review several applications of this result in holomorphic…
In this article we study abstract and embedded invariants of reduced curve germs via topological techniques. One of the most important numerical analytic invariants of an abstract curve is its delta invariant. Our primary goal is to develop…
We introduce a class of permutation centralizer algebras which underly the combinatorics of multi-matrix gauge invariant observables. One family of such non-commutative algebras is parametrised by two integers. Its Wedderburn-Artin…
We explore model based techniques of phylogenetic tree inference exercising Markov invariants. Markov invariants are group invariant polynomials and are distinct from what is known in the literature as phylogenetic invariants, although we…
This paper is expository and is accessible to students. We define simple invariants of knots or links (linking number, Arf-Casson invariants and Alexander-Conway polynomials) motivated by interesting results whose statements are accessible…
We find presentations for subalgebras of invariants of the coordinate algebras of binary symmetric models of phylogenetic trees studied by Buczynska and Wisniewski in \cite{BW}. These algebras arise as toric degenerations of rings of global…
The main purpose of this article is to introduce a comprehensive, unified theory of the geometry of all connections. We show that one can study a connection via a certain, closely associated second-order differential equation. One of the…
Full details are given for the definition and construction of the wreath product of two arbitrary Lie algebras, in the hope that it can lead to the definition of a suitable Lie group to be the wreath product of two given Lie groups. In the…
Following the approach of Grignani and Nardelli [1], we show how to cast the two-dimensional model $L \sim curv^2 + torsion^2 + cosm.const$ -- and in fact any theory of gravity -- into the form of a Poincare gauge theory. By means of the…
This paper is a continuation of our papers \cite{EK1, EK2}. In \cite{EK2} we showed that for the root system $A_{n-1}$ one can obtain Macdonald's polynomials as weighted traces of intertwining operators between certain finite-dimensional…
The values at positive integers of the polyzeta functions are solutions of the polynomial equations arising from Drinfeld's associators, which have numerous applications in quantum algebra. Considered as iterated integrals they become…
In this note I will explain how relative/log Gromov-Witten invariants of pairs $(X,D)$ with very ample smooth anticanonical divisor $D$ can be computed using algebro-combinatorial objects called scattering diagrams. The underlying principle…
