String theory in 4 dimensions has the unique feature that a topological term, the oriented self-intersection number, can be added to the usual action. It has been suggested that the corresponding theory of random surfaces wold be free from…
We establish a real version of Turrittin's result on polynomial and formal normal forms of linear systems of ODEs with meromorphic coefficients. Both the normal forms or the transformations used have only real coefficients. In order to…
Vogt's theorem, concerning boundary angles of a convex arc with monotonic curvature (spiral arc), is taken as a starting point to establish basic properties of spirals. The theorem is expanded by removing requirements of convexity and…
Tensors are fundamental in mathematics, computer science, and physics. Their study through algebraic geometry and representation theory has proved very fruitful in the context of algebraic complexity theory and quantum information. In…
We establish an analogue of the fundamental theorem of algebra for polynomial matrix equations, in which the matrices-coefficients and unknown matrix are assumed to be circulant matrices.
Spinors are used in physics quite extensively. The goal of this study is also the spinor structure lying in the basis of the quaternion algebra. In this paper, first, we have introduced spinors mathematically. Then, we have defined…
For a rational and $C_2$-cofinite vertex operator algebra $V$ with an automorphism group $G$ of prime order, the fusion rules for twisted $V$-modules are studied, a twisted Verlinde formula which relates fusion rules for $g$-twisted modules…
The introduction of automated deduction systems in secondary schools face several bottlenecks, the absence of the subject of rigorous mathematical demonstrations in the curricula, the lack of knowledge by the teachers about the subject and…
The aim of this paper is to generalize Apollonius' problem. The problem is to construct a circle that is tangent to three given circles in a plane. We find the maximum possible number of solution circles in the case of more than the three…
The Apollonius theorem gives the length of a median of a triangle in terms of the lengths of its sides. The straightforward generalization of this theorem obtained for m-simplices in the n-dimensional Euclidean space for n greater than or…
Finding the inverse of a matrix is an open problem especially when it comes to engineering problems due to their complexity and running time (cost) of matrix inversion algorithms. An optimum strategy to invert a matrix is, first, to reduce…
Straightedge and compass construction problems are one of the oldest and most challenging problems in elementary mathematics. The central challenge, for a human or for a computer program, in solving construction problems is a huge search…
The idea of the work is to find an invariant way to pass from deformation theory to cohomology, which does not use any explicit cocycles. The appropriate cohomology theory is based on considering sheaves on a certain site. An advantage of…
This paper concerns the enumeration of rotation-type and congruence-type convex polyominoes on the square lattice. These can be defined as orbits of the groups C4, of rotations, and D4, of symmetries of the square acting on (translation-…
This article is an expository account of the theory of twisted commutative algebras, which simply put, can be thought of as a theory for handling commutative algebras with large groups of linear symmetries. Examples include the coordinate…
The Marden theorem of geometry of polynomials and the great Poncelet theorem from projective geometry of conics by their classical beauty occupy very special places. Our main aim is to present a strong and unexpected relationship between…
A long-standing, unanswered question regarding Euclid's Elements concerns the absence of a theorem for the concurrence of the altitudes of a triangle, and the possible reasons for this omission. In the centuries following Euclid, a…
Over the past few decades the notion of symmetry has played a major role in physics and in the philosophy of physics. Philosophers have used symmetry to discuss the ontology and seeming objectivity of the laws of physics. We introduce…
In this paper, we point out that there are at lest six theorems in physics sharing common virtue of Pythagoras theorem, so that it is possible to string these theorems together with the Pythagoras theorem for physics teaching, the six…
We compute the number of triangulations of a convex $k$-gon each of whose sides is subdivided by $r-1$ points. We find explicit formulas and generating functions, and we determine the asymptotic behaviour of these numbers as $k$ and/or $r$…
