In this paper, we use a topological quantum field theory (TQFT) to define families of new homology theories of a $2$-dimensional CW complex of a smooth closed surface. The dimensions of these homology groups can be used to count the number…
In this article, we introduce two new PL-invariants: weighted regular genus and weighted G-degree for manifolds with boundary. We first prove two inequalities involving some PL-invariants which state that for any PL-manifold $M$ with non…
Recently, a correspondence has been proposed between spectral theory and topological strings on toric Calabi-Yau manifolds. In this paper we develop in detail this correspondence for mirror curves of higher genus, which display many new…
Spontaneous scalarization phenomenon in scalar-tensor gravity is known to be a form of phase transition, and it was recently shown that the order of this transition changes depending on the parameters of the theory. There exists a…
Consider a finite, regular cover $Y\to X$ of finite graphs, with associated deck group $G$. We relate the topology of the cover to the structure of $H_1(Y;\mathbb{C})$ as a $G$-representation. A central object in this study is the {\em…
We conclude our analysis of bubble divergences in the flat spinfoam model. In [arXiv:1008.1476] we showed that the divergence degree of an arbitrary two-complex Gamma can be evaluated exactly by means of twisted cohomology. Here, we…
This paper aims at setting out the basics of $\mathbb{Z}$-graded manifolds theory. We introduce $\mathbb{Z}$-graded manifolds from local models and give some of their properties. The requirement to work with a completed graded symmetric…
We propose a new approach for defining and searching clusters in graphs that represent real technological or transaction networks. In contrast to the standard way of finding dense parts of a graph, we concentrate on the structure of edges…
In this paper we study threshold coloring of graphs, where the vertex colors represented by integers are used to describe any spanning subgraph of the given graph as follows. Pairs of vertices with near colors imply the edge between them is…
In this paper we describe in some detail the representation of the topological $CP^1$ model in terms of a matrix integral which we have introduced in a previous article. We first discuss the integrable structure of the $CP^1$ model and show…
For each commutative, graded algebra with finite dimension in each degree, we construct a graded cohomology theory for graphs whose graded Euler characteristic is the chromatic polynomial of the graph. This extends our previous work which…
For a representation of a finite group $G$ on a complex vector space $V$ we determine when a holomorphic $\binom{p}{q}$-tensor field on the principle stratum of the orbit space $V/G$ can be lifted to a holomorphic $G$-invariant tensor field…
Coordination geometries describe how the neighbours of a central particle are arranged around it. Such geometries can be thought to lie in an abstract topological space; a model of this space could provide a mathematical basis for…
Composed of microscopic layers that stack along one direction while maintaining fluid-like positional disorder within layers, smectics are excellent systems for exploring topology, defects and geometric memory in complex confining…
We discuss topological Landau-Ginzburg theories coupled to the 2-dimensional topological gravity. We point out that the basic recursion relations for correlation functions of the 2-dimesional gravity have exactly the same form as the…
A topological space is introduced in this paper. Just liking the plane, it's continuous, however its $n+1$ regions couldn't be mutually adjacent. Some important phenomenon about its cross-section are discussed. The geometric generating…
Probabilistic Graphical Models (PGMs) encode conditional dependencies among random variables using a graph -nodes for variables, links for dependencies- and factorize the joint distribution into lower-dimensional components. This makes PGMs…
We suggest a diagrammatic model of computation based on an axiom of distributivity. A diagram of a decorated coloured tangle, similar to those that appear in low dimensional topology, plays the role of a circuit diagram. Equivalent diagrams…
Krenn, Gu and Zeilinger initiated the study of PMValid edge-colourings because of its connection to a problem from quantum physics. A graph is defined to have a PMValid $k$-edge-colouring if it admits a $k$-edge-colouring (i.e. an edge…
We study the asymptotic nature of geometric structures formed from a point cloud of observations of (generally heavy tailed) distributions in a Euclidean space of dimension greater than one. A typical example is given by the Betti numbers…
