We investigate discrete spin transformations, a geometric framework to manipulate surface meshes by controlling mean curvature. Applications include surface fairing -- flowing a mesh onto say, a reference sphere -- and mesh extrusion --…

Let $\psi : G\to GL(V)$ and $\varphi :G \to GL (W)$ be representations of finite group $G$. A linear map $T: V\to W$ is called a morphism from $\psi$ to $\varphi$ if it satisfys $T\psi_g= \varphi_g T$ for each $g\in G$ and let…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over an algebraically closed field. We show that $A$ is the automorphism group scheme of some smooth projective variety if and only if $A$ has only finitely many automorphisms as an algebraic group. This…

Let $G$ be a group with involution * and $\sigma\colon G\to\{\pm1\}$ a group homomorphism. The map $\sharp$ that sends $\alpha=\sum\alpha_gg$ in a group ring $RG$ to $\alpha^{\sharp}=\sum\sigma(g)\alpha_gg^*$ is an involution of $RG$ called…

Let $M$ be a compact surface and $P$ be either $\mathbb{R}$ or $S^1$. For a smooth map $f:M\to P$ and a closed subset $V\subset M$, denote by $\mathcal{S}(f,V)$ the group of diffeomorphisms $h$ of $M$ preserving $f$, i.e. satisfying the…

For a family of skew product endomorphisms on closed surface $f_{\phi}(x,y)=\big(l x\ , \ y+\phi(x)\big)$, where $l\in \mathbb{N}_{\geq 2}$ and $\phi: S^1\to \mathbb{R}$ is a $C^r\ (r>1)$ function, we get a dichotomy on the cohomology class…

It is shown that if a finite generically smooth morphism $f\,:\,Y\,\longrightarrow\, X$ of smooth projective varieties induces an isomorphism of the \'etale fundamental groups, then the induced map of the stratified fundamental groups…

Whenever we have a group acting on a class of functions by translation, the bispectrum offers a principled and lossless way of representing such functions invariant to the action. Unfortunately, computing the bispectrum is often costly and…

Smooth axially symmetric Helfrich topological spheres are either round or else they must satisfy a second order equation known as the reduced membrane equation [17]. In this paper, we show that, conversely, axially symmetric closed genus…

This paper proposes a new notion of smoothness of algebras, termed differential smoothness, that combines the existence of a top form in a differential calculus over an algebra together with a strong version of the Poincar\'e duality…

Relations between some kinds of formal and standard smoothness, for morphisms of schemes, are clarified in surprisingly simple and direct ways, bypassing much of the customarily employed machinery. Even the deep local-to-global property of…

Symmetric varieties are normal equivariant open embeddings of symmetric homogeneous spaces and they are interesting examples of spherical varieties. The principal goal of this article is to study the rigidity under K\"{a}hler deformations…

Smooth parametrization consists in a subdivision of the mathematical objects under consideration into simple pieces, and then parametric representation of each piece, while keeping control of high order derivatives. The main goal of the…

For a singular variety X, an essential step to determine its smoothability and study its deformations is the understanding of the tangent sheaf and of the sheaf T^1_X:=ext^1(Omega_X,O_X). A variety is semi-smooth if its singularities are…

A characterization is given of finite groups $H$ that have skew-morphisms of order coprime to the order $|H|$, and their skew-morphisms. A complete classification is then given of the automorphism groups and the underlying graphs of…

Let G be a complex reductive group. A normal G-variety X is called spherical if a Borel subgroup of G has a dense orbit in X. Of particular interest are spherical varieties which are smooth and affine since they form local models for…

Dynamical quantum field theories (QFTs), such as those in which spacetimes are equipped with a metric and/or a field in the form of a smooth map to a target manifold, can be formulated axiomatically using the language of…

We study the counts of smooth permutations and smooth polynomials over finite fields. For both counts we prove an estimate with an error term that matches the error term found in the integer setting by de Bruijn more than 70 years ago. The…

We provide an equivalence between the category of affine, smooth group schemes over the ring of generalized dual numbers $k[I]$, and the category of extensions of the form $1 \rightarrow \text{Lie}(G, I) \rightarrow E \rightarrow G…

We show that any smooth permutation $\sigma\in S_n$ is characterized by the set ${\mathbf{C}}(\sigma)$ of transpositions and $3$-cycles in the Bruhat interval $(S_n)_{\leq\sigma}$, and that $\sigma$ is the product (in a certain order) of…
