A configuration p in r-dimensional Euclidean space is a finite collection of labeled points p^1,p^2,...,p^n in R^r that affinely span R^r. Each configuration p defines a Euclidean distance matrix D_p = (d_ij) = (||p^i-p^j||^2), where ||.||…

Lie group methods are used for the study of various issues related to symmetries and exact solutions of the barotropic vorticity equation. The Lie symmetries of the barotropic vorticity equations on the $f$- and $\beta$-planes, as well as…
We study the derived categories of coherent sheaves of weighted projective spaces and their noncommutative deformations, and the derived categories of Lagrangian vanishing cycles of their mirror Landau-Ginzburg models. In particular, we…
We define periodic frameworks as graphs on the torus, using the language of gain graphs. We present some fundamental definitions and results about the infinitesimal rigidity of graphs on a torus of fixed size and shape, and find necessary…
Symmetry is one of the most central concepts in physics, and it is no surprise that it has also been widely adopted as an inductive bias for machine-learning models applied to the physical sciences. This is especially true for models…
We study the classification of two-dimensional (2D) topological orders enriched by point-group symmetries, by generalizing the folding appraoch which was previously developed for mirror-symmetry-enriched topological orders. We fold the 2D…
The aim of this paper is to review and discuss qualitatively some results on the properties of amorphous packings of hard spheres that were recently obtained by means of the replica method. The theory gives predictions for the equation of…
We consider the parity transformation and the consequences of parity invariance on the $n$-point correlation function of the cosmic shear, or any other polar (or `spin-2') field. The decomposition of the shear field into E- and B-modes then…
We study infinitesimal conformal deformations of a triangulated surface in Euclidean space and investigate the change in its extrinsic geometry. A deformation of vertices is conformal if it preserves length cross-ratios. On one hand,…
We prove combination theorems in the spirit of Klein and Maskit in the context of discrete convergence groups acting geometrically finitely on their limit sets. As special cases, we obtain combination theorems for geometrically finite…
We study the rigidity of compact submanifolds of Riemannian manifolds of arbitrary codimension that satisfy a sharp pinching condition involving the norm of the second fundamental form and the mean curvature. Without assuming that the…
A symmetric characteristic singular integral equation with two fixed singularities at the endpoints in the class of functions bounded at the ends is analyzed. It reduces to a vector Hilbert problem for a half-disc and then to a vector…
In 2005, Bob Connelly showed that a generic framework in $\bR^d$ is globally rigid if it has a stress matrix of maximum possible rank, and that this sufficient condition for generic global rigidity is preserved by the 1-extension operation.…
We study the phenomenological consequences of higher symmetry structures in axion effective field theories. Higher-group and non-invertible symmetries impose parametric constraints on the energy scales at which different symmetries can…
Symmetry formulated by group theory plays an essential role with respect to the laws of nature, from fundamental particles to condensed matter systems. Here, by combining symmetry analysis and tight-binding model calculations, we elucidate…
We study mirror symmetry of type II strings on manifolds with the exceptional holonomy groups $G_2$ and Spin(7). Our central result is a construction of mirrors of Spin(7) manifolds realized as generalized connected sums. In parallel to…
Dirac fermions coupled to gauge fields can exhibit the chiral anomaly even on a finite spatial lattice. A careful description of this phenomenon yields new insights into the nature of spin-charge relations and on-site symmetries (symmetries…
We extend our theory of amorphous packings of hard spheres to binary mixtures and more generally to multicomponent systems. The theory is based on the assumption that amorphous packings produced by typical experimental or numerical…
We prove the Strominger--Yau--Zaslow and topological mirror symmetries for parabolic Hitchin systems of types B and C. In contrast to type A, a geometric reinterpretation of Springer duality is necessary. Furthermore, unlike Hitchin's…
