We introduce a novel set of stability conditions for vacua with broken Lorentz symmetry. The first class of conditions require that the energy be minimized under small geometric deformations, which translates into requiring the positivity…
In this paper, we study deformations of nonsingular Poisson varieties, deformations of Poisson invertible sheaves and simultaneous deformations of nonsingular Poisson varieties and Poisson invertible sheaves, which extend flat deformation…
The double sine-Gordon field theory in the weak confinement regime is studied. It represents the small non-integrable deformation of the standard sine-Gordon model caused by the cosine perturbation with the frequency reduced by the factor…
This thesis finds its place in the interplay between algebraic and geometric combinatorics. We focus on studying two different families of lattices in relation to the weak order: the permutree lattices and the $s$-weak order. The first part…
Recent advancements in the synthesis of anisotropic macromolecules and nanoparticles have spurred an immense interest in theoretical and computational studies of self-assembly. The cornerstone of such studies is the role of shape in…
This article extends the author's past work [Inv. Probl. Imaging, 10:2 (2016), 433--459] to attenuated X-ray transforms, where the attenuation is complex-valued and only depends on position. We give a positive and constructive answer to the…
We conduct a numerical investigation of structural order in the shifted-force Lennard-Jones system by calculating metrics of translational and bond-orientational order along various paths in the phase diagram covering equilibrium solid,…
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…
It is well-known that every convex function admits an affine support at every interior point of a domain. Convex functions of higher order (precisely of an odd order) have a similar property: they are supported by the polynomials of degree…
Here we explore the geometry of the osculating spaces to projective varieties of arbitrary dimension. In particular, we classify varieties having very degenerate higher order osculating spaces and we determine mild conditions for the…
Higher-dimensional theories provide a promising framework for unified extensions of the supersymmetric standard model. Compactifications to four dimensions often lead to U(1) symmetries beyond the standard model gauge group, whose breaking…
We study a class of non-unitary so(2,d) representations (for even values of d), describing mixed-symmetry partially massless fields which constitute natural candidates for defining higher-spin singletons of higher order. It is shown that…
In this paper we study sufficient conditions for metric subregularity of a set-valued map which is the sum of a single-valued continuous map and a locally closed subset. First we derive a sufficient condition for metric subregularity which…
We compute the 't Hooft anomalies of discrete symmetries in the Pouliot type dual theories and check their anomaly matching conditions. The Pouliot type dual theories we will consider in this paper are two dual pairs; the dual pair of…
The basic tool for solving problems in metric geometry and isotonic regression is the metric projection onto closed convex cones. Isotonicity of these projections with respect to a given order relation can facilitate finding the solutions…
We study local models that describe the singularities of Shimura varieties of non-PEL type for orthogonal groups at primes where the level subgroup is given by the stabilizer of a single lattice. In particular, we use the Pappas-Zhu…
The influence of incommensurate spin density waves (SDW) on superconductivity in unconventional superconductors is studied by means of the Bogolubov-de Gennes (BdG) equations. Exploiting translational symmetries of a magnetically ordered…

Gauges, or convex distance functions are, roughly speaking, norms without symmetry. In this paper we intend to quantify how asymmetric a planar gauge can be. We introduce asymmetry measures for smooth gauges and for strictly convex gauges,…
We argue that in theories of quantum gravity with discrete gauge symmetries, e.g. $\textbf{Z}_k$, the gauge couplings of U$(1)$ gauge symmetries become weak in the limit of large $k$, as $g\to k^{-\alpha}$ with $\alpha$ a positive order 1…
