A connected graph is called a multi-block graph if each of its blocks is a complete multi-partite graph. Building on the work of \cite{Bp3,Hou3}, we compute the determinant and inverse of the distance matrix for a class of multi-block…
We show that the maximum number of unit distances or of diameters in a set of n points in d-dimensional Euclidean space is attained only by specific types of Lenz constructions, for all d >= 4 and n sufficiently large, depending on d. As a…
Consider an $n \times n$ matrix polynomial $P(\lambda)$. A spectral norm distance from $P(\lambda)$ to the set of $n \times n$ matrix polynomials that have a given scalar $\mu\in\mathbb{C}$ as a multiple eigenvalue was introduced and…
We prove that for $d>1$ the best information ratio of the perfect secret sharing scheme based on the edge set of the $d$-dimensional cube is exactly $d/2$. Using the technique developed, we also prove that the information ratio of the…
The spectral gap problem - determining whether the energy spectrum of a system has an energy gap above ground state, or if there is a continuous range of low-energy excitations - pervades quantum many-body physics. Recently, this important…
We develop several methods, based on the geometric relationship between the eigenspaces of a matrix and its adjoint, for determining whether a square matrix having distinct eigenvalues is unitarily equivalent to a complex symmetric matrix.…
We propose methods towards a systematic determination of d dimensional curved spaces where Euclidean field theories with rigid supersymmetry can be defined. The analysis is carried out from a group theory as well as from a supergravity…
Let $A$ be a square complex matrix and $z$ a complex number. The distance, with respect to the spectral norm, from $A$ to the set of matrices which have $z$ as an eigenvalue is less than or equal to the distance from $z$ to the spectrum of…
Following the pattern of the Frobenius structure usually assigned to the 1-dimensional sphere, we investigate the Frobenius structures of spheres in all other dimensions. Starting from dimension $d=1$, all the spheres are commutative…
The tight span $T_d$ of a metric $d$ on a finite set is the subcomplex of bounded faces of an unbounded polyhedron defined by~$d$. If $d$ is generic then $T_d$ is known to be dual to a regular triangulation of a second hypersimplex. A tight…
In this paper we deal with two dimensional cubic Dirac equations appearing as effective model in gapped honeycomb structures. We give a formal derivation starting from cubic Schr\"odinger equations and prove the existence of standing waves…
We prove that if $A$ and $B$ are Hadamard matrices which are both of size $4 \times 4$ or $5 \times 5$ and in dephased form, then $tr(A) = tr(B)$ implies that $A$ and $B$ have the same eigenvalues, including multiplicity. We calculate…
We introduce a new discrete system that arises from ellipsoidal billiards and is closely related to the double reflection nets. The system is defined on the lattice of a uniform honeycomb consisting of rectified hypercubes and cross…
Systems of dyadic cubes are the basic tools of harmonic analysis and geometry, and this notion had been extended to general metric spaces. In this paper, we construct systems of dyadic cubes of complete, doubling, uniformly perfect metric…
We derive a pair potential from tight binding further neighbours attraction that leads to superconducting gap symmetry similar to that of the phenomenological spin fluctuation theory of high temperature superconductors (Monthoux, Balatsky,…
The band structure of a novel type of photonic crystal with superconducting constituent elements is calculated numerically via a plane wave expansion. The density of states and the dependence of the width of the photonic gap on the filling…
Suppose that a finite-dimensional cube is orthogonally projected onto a central section of itself by a subspace of one dimension less. Up to dimension $9$, at least one vertex is projected onto the section, but for dimension $10$ or larger,…
Alternative novel measures of the distance between any two partitions of a n-set are proposed and compared, together with a main existing one, namely 'partition-distance' D(.,.). The comparison achieves by checking their restriction to…
We study the unit distance and distinct distances problems over the planar hypercomplex numbers: the dual numbers $\mathbb{D}$ and the double numbers $\mathbb{S}$. We show that the distinct distances problem in $\mathbb{S}^2$ behaves…
We show that large subsets of vector spaces over finite fields determine certain point configurations with prescribed distance structure. More specifically, we consider the complete graph with vertices as the points of $A \subseteq…
