We present a new construction of four dimensional $\mathcal N=3$ theories, given by M5 branes wrapping a $T^2$ in an M-theory U-fold background. The resulting setup generalizes the one used in the usual class $\mathcal S$ construction of…
In 1993, Muzychuk \cite{muzychuk} showed that the rational Schur rings over a cyclic group $Z_n$ are in one-to-one correspondence with sublattices of the divisor lattice of $n$, or equivalently, with sublattices of the lattice of subgroups…
Using Hecke characters, we construct two infinite families of newforms with complex multiplication, one by $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$ and the other by $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-2})$. The values of the $p$-th Fourier coefficients of all the forms in…
Random graph generation is an important tool for studying large complex networks. Despite abundance of random graph models, constructing models with application-driven constraints is poorly understood. In order to advance state-of-the-art…
We construct an infinite family of simply connected, pairwise nondiffeomorphic 4-manifolds, all homeomorphic to 3CP^2 blown up at 9 points.
We construct a one-parameter family of Laplacians on the Sierpinski Gasket that are symmetric and self-similar for the 9-map iterated function system obtained by iterating the standard 3-map iterated function system. Our main result is the…
Numerous work revolve around the Sierpinski gasket. Its three-dimensional analogue, the Sierpinski tetrahedron, obtained by means of an iterative process which consists in repeatedly contracting a regular 3-simplex to one half of its…
Quarks come in three colors and have electric charges in multiples of one-third. There are also three families of quarks and leptons. Whereas the first two properties can be understood in terms of unification symmetries such as SU(5),…
A reflexive cycle is any reflexive digraph whose underlying undirected graph is a cycle. Call a relational structure Slupecki if its surjective polymorphisms are all essentially unary. We prove that all reflexive cycles of girth at least 4…
We construct 1-parameter families of non-periodic embedded minimal surfaces of infinite genus in $T \times \mathbb{R}$, where $T$ denotes a flat 2-tori. Each of our families converges to a foliation of $T \times \mathbb{R}$ by $T$. These…
M-theory on compact eight-manifolds with $\mathrm{Spin}(7)$-holonomy is a framework for geometric engineering of 3d $\mathcal{N}=1$ gauge theories coupled to gravity. We propose a new construction of such $\mathrm{Spin}(7)$-manifolds, based…
We argue that in dynamical models of fermion masses, which explain the three mass scales of the generations of fermions with three separate heavy scales above the electroweak symmetry breaking scale, the off diagonal CKM matrix elements…
When the sequence of regular polygons with consecutively increasing numbers of sides is joined edge-to-edge in a single direction while minimizing bending, the resulting structure assumes the shape of a logarithmic spiral. This paper proves…
We construct simply connected, minimal, symplectic 4-manifolds with exotic smooth structures and each with one Seiberg-Witten basic class up to sign, on the Noether line and between the Noether and half Noether lines by star surgeries…
We construct a family of finitely generated infinite periodic groups. The basic example is a 2-group, called the tetrahedron group. We generalize the construction by suggesting a family of infinite finitely generated dice groups. We provide…
A pair $(A,B)$ of square $(0,1)$-matrices is called a \emph{Lehman pair} if $AB^T=J+kI$ for some integer $k\in\{-1,1,2,3,\ldots\}$. In this case $A$ and $B$ are called \emph{Lehman matrices}. This terminology arises because Lehman showed…
Self-similar curves are a recurring motif in nature. The tension-free stationary states of conformally invariant energies describe the simplest curves of this form. Planar logarithmic spirals, for example, are associated with conformal…
For each half-integer $J$ and large enough integer $m$ we construct by PDE gluing methods a self-shrinker $\breve{M}[J,m]$ with $2J+1$ ends and genus $2J(m-1)$. $\breve{M}[J,m]$ resembles the stacking of $2J+1$ levels of the plane…
An arrangement of pseudocircles is a collection of simple closed curves on the sphere or in the plane such that any two of the curves are either disjoint or intersect in exactly two crossing points. We call an arrangement intersecting if…
We construct infinite rank summands isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}^\infty$ in the higher homotopy and homology groups of the diffeomorphism groups of certain $4$-manifolds. These spherical families become trivial in the homotopy and homology…
