This short note gives an overview of how a few conjectures and theorems of the author and collaborators fit together. It was prepared for Oberwolfach's workshop Differentialgeometrie im Gro{\ss}en, 28 June - 4 July 2015, and contains no new…
Recently delivered lectures on Self-Referential Mathematics, [2], at the Department of Mathematics and Applied Mathematics, University of Pretoria, are briefly presented. Comments follow on the subject, as well as on Inconsistent…
These lectures begin by reviewing the evidence for S duality of the toroidally compactified heterotic string in 4d that was obtained in the period 1992--94. Next they review recently discovered dualities that relate all five of the 10d…
This chapter presents a state-of-the-art survey of relationships, traditionally referred to as `bridges', between interpolation properties for propositional logics -- including superintuitionistic, modal, and substructural logics -- and…
These are largely expanded notes from lectures on Higgs moduli and abelianisation given in Angers, France (2014) and Guaruja, Brazil (2015). Dedicated to Ugo Bruzzo on his 60-th birthday. Version 2: minor corrections.
These notes are the outgrowth of a series of lectures given at MSRI in January 1995 at the beginning of the special semester in complex dynamics and hyperbolic geometry. In these notes, the primary aim is to motivate the study of complex…
A few remarks on hep-ph/9612213 are given.
This study investigates the translation of circumlocution from Arabic to English in a corpus of short stories by renowned Arabic authors. By analyzing the source and target texts, the study aims to identify and categorize circumlocution…
In this article, we introduce the singular twin monoid and its corresponding group, constructed from both algebraic and topological perspectives. We then classify all complex homogeneous $2$-local representations of this constructed group.…
The circular twin paradox and Thomas Precession are presented in a way that makes both accessible to students in introductory relativity courses. Both are discussed by examining what happens during travel around a polygon and then in the…
