Relying upon the division-algebra classification of Clifford algebras and spinors, a classification of generalized supersymmetries (or, with a slight abuse of language,"generalized supertranslations") is provided. In each given space-time…

We study two kinds of generalizations of symmetric block designs to higher dimensions, the so-called $\mathcal{C}$-cubes and $\mathcal{P}$-cubes. For small parameters, all examples up to equivalence are determined by computer calculations.…

We give an explicit dimension formula for paramodular forms of degree two of prime level with plus or minus sign of the Atkin--Lehner involution of weight $\det^k\operatorname{Sym}(j)$ with $k\geq 3$, as well as a dimension formula for…

We interpret geometrically the torsion of the symmetric algebra of the ideal sheaf of a zero-dimensional scheme Z defined by $n+1$ equations in an $n$-dimensional variety. This leads us to generalise a formula of A.Dimca and S.Papadima in…

We reconsider the sub-leading quantum perturbative corrections to N=2 cubic special Kaehler geometries. Imposing the invariance under axion-shifts, all such corrections (but the imaginary constant one) can be introduced or removed through…

Motivated by the classical studies on transformations of conjugate nets, we develop the general geometric theory of transformations of their discrete analogues: the multidimensional quadrilateral lattices, i.e. lattices x: Z^N -> R^M, whose…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $k$ a field of characteristic $p > 0$. Balmer and Gallauer's recent result on finite $p$-permutation resolutions of $kG$-modules motivates the study of an intriguing new invariant; the $p$-permutation…

We prove a conjecture stated by Catalisano, Geramita, and Gimigliano in 2002, which claims that the secant varieties of tangential varieties to the $d$th Veronese embedding of the projective $n$-space $\mathbb{P}^n$ have the expected…

In 1934, Jordan et al. gave a necessary algebraic condition, the Jordan identity, for a sensible theory of quantum mechanics. All but one of the algebras that satisfy this condition can be described by Hermitian matrices over the complexes…

Let \phi: \mathbb{P}^{r}\dashrightarrow Z be a birational transformation with a smooth connected base locus scheme, where Z\subseteq\mathbb{P}^{r+c} is a nondegenerate prime Fano manifold. We call \phi a quadro-quadric special briational…

In a previous paper, the first three authors formulated a precise conjecture about the dimension of the {\it generalized Severi variety} $M^n_{d,g; {\rm S}, {\bf k}}$ of degree-$d$ holomorphic maps $\mathbb{P}^1 \rightarrow \mathbb{P}^n$…

We prove that any group of cardinality at most the one of $\mathbb{C}$ is a quotient of any Cremona group of rank at least $4$. This provides a definitive answer to the question of what the quotients of Cremona groups can be. As a…

A new method for explicit computation of the CY moduli space metric was proposed by the authors recently. The method makes use of the connection of the moduli space with a certain Frobenius algebra. Here we clarify this approach and…

This article is a contribution to the project of classifying the torsion growth of elliptic curve upon base-change. In this article we treat the case of elliptic curve defined over the rationals with complex multiplication. For this…

We study the L-series of cubic fourfolds. Our main result is that, if X/C is a special cubic fourfold associated to some polarized K3 surface $S$, defined over a number field K such that S^[2](K) is not empty, then X has a model over K such…

In this paper I classify, up to Cremona transformations, the Galois cover of the plane with Galois group of the form $\mathbb Z_2^r$.

A formula for the dimension of the space of cuspidal modular forms on $\Gamma_0(N)$ of weight $k$ ($k\ge2$ even) has been known for several decades. More recent but still well-known is the Atkin-Lehner decomposition of this space of cusp…

We provide a simple method to compute upper bounds on the essential dimension of split reductive groups with finite or connected center by means of their generically free representations. Combining our upper bound with previously known…

We provide a number of new construction techniques for cubical complexes and cubical polytopes, and thus for cubifications (hexahedral mesh generation). As an application we obtain an instance of a cubical 4-polytope that has a…

The Wythoff construction takes a $d$-dimensional polytope $P$, a subset $S$ of $\{0,..., d\}$ and returns another $d$-dimensional polytope $P(S)$. If $P$ is a regular polytope, then $P(S)$ is vertex-transitive. This construction builds a…
