We introduce the class $\Sigma_k(d)$ of $k$-stellated (combinatorial) spheres of dimension $d$ ($0 \leq k \leq d + 1$) and compare and contrast it with the class ${\cal S}_k(d)$ ($0 \leq k \leq d$) of $k$-stacked homology $d$-spheres. We…
We introduce a new criterion which tests if a given decomposition of a given ternary form $T$ of even degree is unique. The criterion is based on the analysis of the Hilbert function of the projective set of points $Z$ associated to the…
We define the operations of conformal change and elementary deformation in the setting of generalized complex geometry. Then we apply Swann's twist construction to generalized (almost) complex and Hermitian structures obtained by these…
In this article we specialize a construction of a reflection positive Hilbert space due to Dimock and Jaffe--Ritter to the sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$. We determine the resulting Osterwalder--Schrader Hilbert space, a construction that can be…
We construct a version of differential $K$-theory based on smooth Banach manifold models for the homotopy types $B \mathrm U\times Z$ and $\mathrm U$ that appear in the topological $K$-theory spectrum. These manifolds carry natural…
The twistor space of the sphere S^{2n} is an isotropic Grassmannian that fibers over S^{2n}. An orthogonal complex structure on a subdomain of S^{2n} (a complex structure compatible with the round metric) determines a section of this…
Let n be any positive integer and p any prime. Also, let X be any spectrum and let K(n) denote the nth Morava K-theory spectrum. Then we construct a descent spectral sequence with abutment pi_*(L_{K(n)}(X)) and E_2-term equal to the…
A tensor product surface $\mathscr{S}$ is an algebraic surface that is defined as the closure of the image of a rational map $\phi$ from $\mathbb{P}^1\times \mathbb{P}^1$ to $\mathbb{P}^3$. We provide new determinantal representations of…
Waldhausen's $K$-theory of the sphere spectrum (closely related to the algebraic $K$-theory of the integers) is a naturally augmented $S^0$-algebra, and so has a Koszul dual. Classic work of Deligne and Goncharov implies an identification…
Let M be a closed simply connected n-manifold of positive sectional curvature. We determine its homeomorphism or homotopic type if M also admits an isometric elementary p-group action of large rank. Our main results are: There exists a…
Let F be a p-adic field of odd residual characteristic. Let G(n) and G`(n) be the metaplectic double covers of the general symplectic group and the symplectic group attached to the 2n dimensional symplectic space over F. Let T be a genuine,…
We focus on spherical spin glasses whose Parisi distribution has support of the form $[0,q]$. For such models we construct paths from the origin to the sphere which consistently remain close to the ground-state energy on the sphere of…
We derive the radial action of a spinning probe particle in Kerr spacetime from the worldline formalism in the first-order form, focusing on linear in spin effects. We then develop a novel covariant Dirac bracket formalism to compute the…
We construct compact initial data of constant mean curvature $\widetilde{K}$ for Einstein's 4d vacuum equations with $\widehat{\Lambda} = \Lambda - (\widetilde{K}^2/3)$ positive, where $\Lambda$ is the cosmological constant, via the…
We consider the Tate cohomology of the circle group acting on the topological Hochschild homology of schemes. We show that in the case of a scheme smooth and proper over a finite field, this cohomology theory naturally gives rise to the…
We study the spin-orbit coupling induced by the splitting between TE and TM optical modes in a photonic honeycomb lattice. Using a tight-binding approach, we calculate analytically the band structure. Close to the Dirac point,we derive an…
We prove the convergence of the Adams spectral sequence based on Morava K-theory and relate it to the filtration by powers of the maximal ideal in the Lubin-Tate ring through a Miller square. We use the filtration by powers to construct a…
We consider an $n$-dimensional projective space $\mathbb{P}_n$ ($n\geq2$) and a fixed point $A$ on it. Let $F(\mathbb{P}_n)$ be the manifold of all the projective frames of $\mathbb{P}_n$ having $A$ as their first vertice. We define the…
We construct a canonical family of even periodic $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}$-ring spectra, with exactly one member of the family for every prime $p$ and chromatic height $n$. At height $1$ our construction is due to Snaith, who built complex…
