The paper opens with an overview of the discussion of international comparisons (including goals) in mathematics education. Afterwards, the two most important recent international studies, the PISA Study and TIMSS-Repeat, are described.…
This article appeared in the September 2024 issue (Vol. 31, No. 3) of the Bulletin of the International Society for Bayesian Analysis (ISBA).
In the language of $L^\infty$-modules proposed by Gigli, we introduce a first order calculus on a topological Lusin measure space $(M,\mathfrak{m})$ carrying a quasi-regular, strongly local Dirichlet form $\mathscr{E}$. Furthermore, we…
Reply to the Comment [arXiv:1609.04476] on a recent work in PRL [Phys. Rev. Lett. 116, 036601 (2016), arXiv:1511.02994v2].
In this note we use techniques in the topology of 2-complexes to recast some tools that have arisen in the study of planar tiling questions. With spherical pictures we show that the tile counting group associated to a set $T$ of tiles and a…
This article is an expository account of the theory of twisted commutative algebras, which simply put, can be thought of as a theory for handling commutative algebras with large groups of linear symmetries. Examples include the coordinate…
This is a condensed exposition of the results of math.QA/0601337, based on a talk of the first author at the Oberwolfach workshop "Deformations and Contractions in Mathematics and Physics", 15-21 January 2006.
Let $\omega$ be a closed, non-degenerate differential form of arbitrary degree. Associated to it there are an $L_{\infty}$-algebra of observables, and an $L_{\infty}$-algebra of sections of the higher Courant algebroid twisted by $\omega$.…
This article, showing that almost all objects in the title are asymmetric, is re-typed from a manuscript I wrote somewhere around 1980 (after the papers of Bang and Friedland on the permanent conjecture but before those of Egorychev and…
A tiling of the sphere by triangles, squares, or hexagons is convex if every vertex has at most 6, 4, or 3 polygons adjacent to it, respectively. Assigning an appropriate weight to any tiling, our main result is explicit formulas for the…

The proof of a result of J. J. Nieto [3] appeared in "Acta Math, Hung". (1992) concerning the positive solutions of nonlinear problems at resonance is corrected and improved.
In arXiv:1905.08311, the author and Rohatgi proved a shuffling theorem for doubly-dented hexagons. In particular, we showed that shuffling removed unit triangles along a horizontal axis in a hexagon only changes the tiling number by a…
We count tilings of a rectangle of integer sides m-1 and n-1 by a special set of tiles. The result is obtained fron the study of the kernel of the adjacency matrix of an n x n rectangular graph of Z x Z.
Mimicking the idea of the generalized Hamming weight of linear codes, we introduce a new lattice invariant, the generalized theta series. Applications range from identifying stable lattices to the lattice isomorphism problem. Moreover, we…
All Italian consonants affected by gemination, that is affricates, fricatives, liquids, nasals, and stops, were analyzed within a project named GEMMA that lasted over a span of about 25 years. Results of the analysis on stops, as published…
We study the tiling of a two-dimensional region of the plane by $K$-cell one-dimensional tiles, or $K$-mers. Unlike previous studies, which typically allowed for one single value of $K$ or sometimes a small assortment of fixed values, here…
In this paper, the intuitive idea of tilt is formalised into the rigorous concept of tilt rotations. This is motivated by the high relevance that pure tilt rotations have in the analysis of balancing bodies in 3D, and their applicability to…

In this paper we prove the "Tiling implies Spectral" part of Fuglede's paper for the case of three intervals. Then we prove the "Spectral implies Tiling" part of the conjecture for the case of three equal intervals as also when the…
