The structure of defect clusters formed in a displacement cascade plays a significant role in the micro-structural evolution during irradiation. Molecular dynamics simulations have been widely used to study collision cascades and subsequent…
Let $\varphi\colon\Gamma\to G$ be a homomorphism of groups. We consider factorizations $\Gamma\xrightarrow{f} M\xrightarrow{g} G$ of $\varphi$ such that either $g$ or $f$ are universal normal maps (namely, crossed modules). These two…
We give an explicit combinatorial description of cluster structures in Schubert varieties of the Grassmannian in terms of (target labelings of) Postnikov's plabic graphs. This description is a natural generalization of the description given…
It is proved that the generalized cluster complex defined by Fomin and Reading has a dihedral symmetry. Together with diagram symmetries, they generate its automorphism group. A consequence is a simple explicit formula for the order of this…
Clustering methods group a set of data points into a few coherent groups or clusters of similar data points. As an example, consider clustering pixels in an image (or video) if they belong to the same object. Different clustering methods…
The past decade has seen an increase of star formation studies made at the molecular cloud scale, motivated mostly by the deployment of a wealth of sensitive infrared telescopes and instruments. Embedded clusters, long recognised as the…
For a given permutation or set partition there is a natural way to assign a genus. Counting all permutations or partitions of a fixed genus according to cycle lengths or block sizes, respectively, is the main content of this article. After…
Quarks and leptons, the fundamental building blocks of the subatomic world, manifest in three families - replicas with identical quantum numbers that differ only in their masses. After revisiting the key milestones that led to the discovery…
The large-scale structure of the Universe is thought to evolve by a process of gravitational amplification from low-amplitude Gaussian noise generated in the early Universe. The later, non-linear stages of gravitation-induced clustering…
We define the block neighborhood of a reversible CA, which is related both to its decomposition into a product of block permutations and to quantum computing. We give a purely combinatorial characterization of the block neighborhood, which…
We determine the class group of those generalized cluster algebras that are Krull domains. In particular, this provides a criterion for determining whether or not a generalized cluster algebra is a UFD. In fact, any finitely generated…
Consider a plane branch, that is, an irreducible germ of curve on a smooth complex analytic surface. We define its blow-up complexity as the number of blow-ups of points necessary to achieve its minimal embedded resolution. We show that…
Topological phases of matter are often understood and predicted with the help of crystal symmetries, although they don't rely on them to exist. In this chapter we review how topological phases have been recently shown to emerge in amorphous…
In this paper we show a general method to compactify certain open varieties by adding normal crossing divisors. This is done by proving that {\it blowing up along an arrangement of subvarieties} can be carried out. Important examples such…
We present results from density functional theory and computer simulations that unambiguously predict the occurrence of first-order freezing transitions for a large class of ultrasoft model systems into cluster crystals. The clusters…
The aim of this review article is to give a comprehensive description of the scaling properties detected for the distribution of cosmic structures. Due to the great variety of statistical methods to describe the large-scale structure of the…
In this paper we develop a general theory which provides a unified treatment of two apparently different problems. The weak Gibbs property of measures arising from the application of Renormalization Group maps and the mixing properties of…
In this paper, we will place clusters in type $\tilde{\mathbb{A}}$ (equivalently triangluations of an annulus) into infinite families parametrized by winding numbers of certain arcs in the corresponding triangulation. We will count how many…
We classify the singularities of a surface ruled by conics: they are rational double points of type $A_n$ or $D_n$. This is proved by showing that they arise from a precise series of blow-ups of a suitable surface geometrically ruled by…
We develop a ring-theoretic approach for blowing up many noncommutative projective surfaces. Let T be an elliptic algebra (meaning that, for some central element g of degree 1, T/gT is a twisted homogeneous coordinate ring of an elliptic…
