Chern-Simons topological field theories TFTs are the only TFTs that have already found application in the description of some exotic strongly-correlated electron systems and the corresponding concept of topological quantum computing. Here,…

Homotopy Type Theory is a new field of mathematics based on the surprising and elegant correspondence between Martin-Lofs constructive type theory and abstract homotopy theory. We have a powerful interplay between these disciplines - we can…

In three recaent papers of G. Dimov, many Stone-type duality theorems for the category of locally compact Hausdorff spaces and continuous maps and some of its subcategories were proved. The dual objects in all these theorems are the local…

For $X$ a metric space and $r>0$, the Vietoris--Rips simplicial complex $\mathrm{VR}(X;r)$ has $X$ as its vertex set, and a finite subset $\sigma \subseteq X$ as a simplex whenever the diameter of $\sigma$ is less than $r$. In ``On…

Split-metric decompositions are an important tool in the theory of phylogenetics, particularly because of the link between the tight span and the class of totally decomposable spaces, a generalization of metric trees whose decomposition…

Results of Smale (1957) and Dugundji (1969) allow to compare the homotopy groups of two topological spaces $X$ and $Y$ whenever a map $f:X\to Y$ with strong connectivity conditions on the fibers is given. We apply similar techniques in…

Let $G_1$ and $G_2$ be discrete subgroups of $SO(3)$. The double quotients of the form $X(G_1,G_2)=G_1\backslash SO(3)/G_2$ were introduced in material science under the name misorientation spaces. In this paper we review several known…

In the present survey paper, we present several new classes of Hochster's spectral spaces "occurring in nature", actually in multiplicative ideal theory, and not linked to or realized in an explicit way by prime spectra of rings. The…

We introduce a class of combinatorial hypersurfaces in the complex projective space. They are submanifolds of codimension~2 in $\C P^n$ and are topologically "glued" out of algebraic hypersurfaces in $(\C^*)^n$. Our construction can be…

Metric topological vector spaces of Carath\'eodory functions and topologies of $L^p_{loc}$ type are introduced, depending on a suitable set of moduli of continuity. Theorems of continuous dependence on initial data for the solutions of…

For a topological space $X$, let $CL(X)$ be the set of all non-empty closed subset of $X$, and denote the set $CL(X)$ with the Vietoris topology by $(CL(X), \mathbb{V})$. In this paper, we mainly discuss the hyperspace $(CL(X), \mathbb{V})$…

We apply a recent classification of topological action terms to Composite Higgs models based on a variety of coset spaces $G/H$ and discuss their phenomenology. The topological terms, which can all be obtained by integrating (possibly only…

The purpose of these notes is to explain parts of Gromov's survey of Carnot-Carathedory spaces, in the light of subsequent results of M. Rumin. Among the rich material provided by Gromov, most of which pertains to analysis on metric spaces,…

Given a metric space X and a distance threshold r>0, the Vietoris-Rips simplicial complex has as its simplices the finite subsets of X of diameter less than r. A theorem of Jean-Claude Hausmann states that if X is a Riemannian manifold and…

Based on a modified version of Abramov-Petkov\v{s}ek reduction, a new algorithm to compute minimal telescopers for bivariate hypergeometric terms was developed last year. We investigate further in this paper and present a new argument for…

Given a sample of points $X$ in a metric space $M$ and a scale $r>0$, the Vietoris-Rips simplicial complex $\mathrm{VR}(X;r)$ is a standard construction to attempt to recover $M$ from $X$ up to homotopy type. A deficiency of this approach…

Let E be a locally compact second countable Hausdorff space and F the pertaining family of all closed sets. We endow F respectively with the Fell-topology, the upper Fell topology or the upper Vietoris-topology and investigate weak…

This rather technical paper presents some generalization of the results of recent publications \cite{Shirkov2010, DVPF2010, PFDV2010} where toy models of dimensional reduction of space-time were considered. Here we introduce and consider a…

We introduce and study bisimulations for coalgebras on Stone spaces [14]. Our notion of bisimulation is sound and complete for behavioural equivalence, and generalizes Vietoris bisimulations [4]. The main result of our paper is that…

The concepts of topology have a profound impact on physics research spanning the fields of condensed matter, photonics and acoustics and predicting topological states that provide unprecedented versatility in routing and control of waves of…
