We construct all orthogonal separating coordinates in constant curvature spaces of arbitrary signature. Further, we construct explicit transformation between orthogonal separating and flat or generalised flat coordinates, as well as…
This text introduces geometric quantization on orbifolds. After reviewing the necessary background, it develops new treatments of prequantization, polarizations, and metaplectic correction for symplectic orbifolds.
In this paper results from the differential geometry of curves are extended from normed planes to gauge planes which are obtained by neglecting the symmetry axiom. Based on the gauge analogue of the notion of Birkhoff orthogonality from…
Due to the invariance properties of cross-ratio, M\"obius transformations are often used to map a set of points or other geometric object into a symmetric position to simplify a problem studied. However, when the points are mapped under a…
We combine functional analytic and geometric viewpoints on approximate Birkhoff and isosceles orthogonality in generalized Minkowski spaces which are finite-dimensional vector spaces equipped with a gauge. This is the first approach to…
Notions of the orthogonality and convolution orthogonality are explored with the use of the Kontorovich-Lebedev transform and its convolution. New classes of the corresponding orthogonal polynomials and functions are investigated. Integral…
We provide examples of homogeneous spaces which are neither symmetric spaces nor real cohomology spheres, yet have the property that every invariant metric is geometrically formal. We also extend the known obstructions to geometric…
We extend some of the measures of association defined by Lazarsfeld and Martin, obtaining useful invariants to compare the birational geometry of two varieties having different dimensions. We explore such invariants providing examples and…
We introduce a geometric formulation of quantum indeterminacy from which the standard uncertainty inequalities emerge as necessary consequences. Our approach is based on convex geometry in phase space and on methods from symplectic…
On an oriented 4-manifold, we examine the geometry that arises when the curvature operator of a Riemannian or Lorentzian metric $g$ commutes, not with its own Hodge star operator, but rather with that of another semi-Riemannian metric $h$…
This paper studies algorithms for efficiently computing Brascamp-Lieb constants, a task that has recently received much interest. In particular, we reduce the computation to a nonlinear matrix-valued iteration, whose convergence we analyze…
Let $x$ and $y$ be two unit vectors in a normed plane $\mathbb{R}^2$. We say that $x$ is Birkhoff orthogonal to $y$ if the line through $x$ in the direction $y$ supports the unit disc. A B-measure (Fankh\"anel 2011) is an angular measure…
The orthogonality properties of certain subspaces associated with bivariate Bernstein-Szeg\H{o} measures are considered. It is shown that these spaces satisfy more orthogonality relations than expected from the relations that define them.…
We establish new and different kinds of proofs of properties that arise due to the orthogonal decomposition of the Hilbert space, including projections, over the unit interval of one dimension. We also see angles between functions,…
Understanding the orientation of geological structures is crucial for analyzing the complexity of the Earths' subsurface. For instance, information about geological structure orientation can be incorporated into local anisotropic…
We study the concepts of Birkhoff--James orthogonality and parallelism in Hilbert space operators, induced by the operator radius norm $w_{\rho}(\cdot)$. In particular, we completely characterize Birkhoff--James orthogonality and…
The problem of homological stability helps us to catch the structure of group homology. We calculate homological stability of special orthogonal groups, and we also calculate the stability of orthogonal groups with determinant-twisted…
There are three complete plane geometries of constant curvature: spherical, Euclidean and hyperbolic geometry. We explain how a closed oriented surface can carry a geometry which locally looks like one of these. Focussing on the hyperbolic…
We give a normal form of the cuspidal edge which uses only diffeomorphisms on the source and isometries on the target. Using this normal form, we study differential geometric invariants of cuspidal edges which determine them up to order…
We construct a smooth family of Hamiltonian systems, together with a family of group symmetries and momentum maps, for the dynamics of point vortices on surfaces parametrized by the curvature of the surface. Equivariant bifurcations in this…
