In this Phd. thesis, a structural analysis of construction schemes is developed. The importance of this study will be justified by constructing several distinct combinatorial objects which have been of great interest in mathematics. We then…
An exposition of the basic geometry of twistor integrals, intended for mathematicians.
The paper intends to lay out the first steps towards constructing a unified framework to understand the symplectic and spectral theory of finite dimensional integrable Hamiltonian systems. While it is difficult to know what the best…
These notes are intended to be an introduction to shifted symplectic geometry, targeted to Poisson geometers with a serious background in homological algebra. They are extracted from a mini-course given by the first author at the Poisson…
This work is divided into three parts. The first part concerns polynomials in one variable with all real roots. We consider linear transformations that preserve real rootedness, as well as matrices that preserve interlacing. The second part…
(Talk presented at the XVth Workshop on Geometric Methods in Physics, Quantizations, Deformations and Coherent States, in Bialowieza, Poland, July 1-7, 1996.) The aim of this article is to introduce some basic notions of Topological Quantum…
We will discuss the key concepts in density functional theory (DFT), how it can be used to model experimental data, and consider how the synergy between DFT and experiment can give significant insights. The discussion will centre on the…
This is the first of a two-part work on Kleiman's iterated multiple point spaces. We show general properties of these spaces, leading to explicit equations describing them for maps (of any corank) between complex manifolds. We also describe…
After reviewing recent results on symplectic Lefschetz pencils and symplectic branched covers of CP^2, we describe a new construction of maps from symplectic manifolds of any dimension to CP^2 and the associated monodromy invariants. We…
This document is a companion for the Maple program \textbf{Summing a polynomial function over integral points of a polygon}. It contains two parts. First, we see what this programs does. In the second part, we briefly recall the…
Methods were developed in Ref. [1] for constructing reference metrics (and from them differentiable structures) on three-dimensional manifolds with topologies specified by suitable triangulations. This note generalizes those methods by…
These notes present a systematic treatment of local properties of J-holomorphic maps and of Gromov's convergence for sequences of such maps, specifying the assumptions needed for all statements. In particular, only one auxiliary statement…
Parabolic almost conformally symplectic structures were introduced in the first part of this series of articles as a class of geometric structures which have an underlying almost conformally symplectic structure. If this underlying…
Some aspects of multidimensional soliton geometry are considered.
For a symplectic manifold $(M,\om)$ with exact symplectic form we construct a 2-cocycle on the group of symplectomorphisms and indicate cases when this cocycle is not trivial.
In this article we discuss Bousfield localization, beginning with definitions in terms of mapping spaces and working up to a discussion of how they can be constructed when we have access to the small object argument. We also discuss…
This monograph is a study of the category of polynomial endofunctors on the category of sets and its applications to modeling interaction protocols and dynamical systems. We assume basic categorical background and build the categorical…
We present constructions of countable two-dimensional subshifts of finite type (SFTs) with interesting properties. Our main focus is on properties of the topological derivatives and subpattern posets of these objects. We present a countable…
