We introduce the umbral calculus formalism for hypercomplex variables starting from the fact that the algebra of multivariate polynomials $\BR[\underline{x}]$ shall be described in terms of the generators of the Weyl-Heisenberg algebra. The…
It is proved that in Godel's constructible universe, for every infinite successor cardinal k, there exist graphs G and H of size and chromatic number k, for which the tensor product graph (G x H) is countably chromatic.
Applying a method of Godsil and McKay \cite{GM} to some graphs related to the symplectic graph, a series of new infinite families of strongly regular graphs with parameters…
We present three "hard" diagrams of the unknot. They require (at least) three extra crossings before they can be simplified to the trivial unknot diagram via Reidemeister moves in $\mathbb{S}^2$. Both examples are constructed by applying…
A quantum sl(2,R) coalgebra is shown to underly the construction of a large class of superintegrable potentials on 3D curved spaces, that include the non-constant curvature analogues of the spherical, hyperbolic and (anti-)de Sitter spaces.…
We study indecomposable representations of quivers on separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces by bounded operators. We consider a complement of Gabriel's theorem for these representations. Let $\Gamma$ be a finite, connected quiver.…
This is a survey on Reidemeister torsion for hyperbolic three-manifolds of finite volume. Torsions are viewed as topological invariants and also as functions on the variety of representations in $\operatorname{ SL}_2(\mathbb C)$. In both…
Let $E/k$ be a non-isotrivial elliptic curve over a global function field $k$ of characteristic $p>3$, and $G\subset \mathrm{Gal}(k^{\mathrm{sep}}/k)$ be a topologically finitely generated subgroup. We prove that if $E/k$ has analytic rank…
We introduce a graphical calculus for computing morphism spaces between the categorified spin networks of Cooper and Krushkal. The calculus, phrased in terms of planar compositions of categorified Jones-Wenzl projectors and their duals, is…
Based on earlier work on regular quantum graphs we show that a large class of scaling quantum graphs with arbitrary topology are explicitly analytically solvable. This is surprising since quantum graphs are excellent models of quantum chaos…
The classical Kirszbraun theorem says that all $1$-Lipschitz functions $f:A\longrightarrow \mathbb{R}^n$, $A\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, with the Euclidean metric have a $1$-Lipschitz extension to $\mathbb{R}^n$. For metric spaces $X,Y$ we say…
We discuss the Krein--von Neumann extensions of three Laplacian-type operators -- on discrete graphs, quantum graphs, and domains. In passing we present a class of one-dimensional elliptic operators such that for any $n\in \mathbb N$…
The parametric geometry of numbers of Schmidt and Summerer deals with rational approximation to points in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We extend this theory to a number field $K$ and its completion $K_w$ at a place $w$ in order to treat approximation…
We prove that for all natural numbers k,n,d with k <= d and every partition lambda of size kn with at most k parts there exists an irreducible GL(d, C)-representation of highest weight 2*lambda in the plethysm Sym^k(Sym^(2n) (C^d)). This…
We equip the odd nilHecke algebra and its associated thick calculus category with digrammatically local differentials. The resulting differential graded Grothendieck groups are isomorphic to two different forms of the positive part of…
We show that all extended functorial field theories, both topological and nontopological, are local. We define the smooth (infinity,d)-category of bordisms with geometric data, such as Riemannian metrics or geometric string structures, and…
A new calculus of planar diagrams involving diagrammatics for biadjoint functors and degenerate affine Hecke algebras is introduced. The calculus leads to an additive monoidal category whose Grothendieck ring contains an integral form of…
We give a pedagogical introduction to the differential calculus on quantum groups by stressing at all stages the connection with the classical case ($q \rightarrow 1$ limit). The Lie derivative and the contraction operator on forms and…
An effective algorithm of determining Gromov--Witten invariants of smooth hypersurfaces in any genus (subject to a degree bound) from Gromov--Witten invariants of the ambient space is proposed. The Appendix is joint with E. Schulte-Geers.
We study the divisor of the Reidemeister torsion on the variety of irreducible ${\rm SL}_2\mathbb{C}$-characters of certain knots and links, and provide a geometric interpretation of them. We focus in particular on the family of odd-twisted…
