Given a spectral triple of compact type with a real structure in the sense of [Dabrowski L., J. Geom. Phys. 56 (2006), 86-107] (which is a modification of Connes' original definition to accommodate examples coming from quantum group theory)…
We extend some results about shifted Schur functions to the general context of shifted Macdonald polynomials. We obtain two explicit formulas for these polynomials: a $q$-integral representation and a combinatorial formula. Our main tool is…
The laws of geometric optics and their corrections are derived for scalar, electromagnetic, and gravitational waves propagating in generic curved spacetimes. Local peeling-type results are obtained, where different components of…
An essential prerequisite for the study of q-deformed physics are particle states in position and momentum representation. In order to relate x- and p-space by Fourier transformations the appropriate q-exponential series related to…
A generalization of the quotient integral formula is presented and some of its properties are investigated. Also the relations between two function spaces related to the spacial homogeneous spaces are derived by using general quotient…
In the paper, we establish a new estimate for Kloosterman sum over primes with respect to an arbitrary modulus $q$. This estimate together with some recent results of the second author are applied to the problem of solvability of the…
Let $r \geq 2$ be an integer, $q$ a prime power and $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ the finite field with $q$ elements. Consider the problem of showing existence of primitive elements in a subset $\mathcal{A} \subseteq \mathbb{F}_{q^r}$. We prove a sieve…
We first define what we mean by gravitational lensing equations in a general space-time. A set of exact relations are then derived that can be used as the gravitational lens equations in all physical situations. The caveat is that into…
We present a framework for studying gravitational lensing in spherically symmetric spacetimes using 1+1+2 covariant methods. A general formula for the deflection angle is derived and we show how this can be used to recover the standard…
This paper concerns the enumeration of isomorphism classes of modules of a polynomial algebra in several variables over a finite field. This is the same as the classification of commuting tuples of matrices over a finite field up to…
Bidirectional transformation, also called lens, has played important roles in maintaining consistency in many fields of applications. A lens is specified by a pair of forward and backward functions which relate to each other in a consistent…
We define and study the properties of $\gamma^{*}$-regular and $\gamma$-normal spaces. We also continue studying $\gamma_{o}$-compact spaces defined in [5].
We prove the following conjecture due to Bryant Mathews (2008). Let Q be the orthogonal grassmannian of totally isotropic i-planes of a non-degenerate quadratic form q over an arbitrary field (where i is an integer in the interval [1, (\dim…
We provide a generalization of the construction of a spectrum of a commutative ring as a locally ringed space, applicable to cone injectivity classes in general contexts, especially in locally finitely presentable categories. In its full…
We consider a $(q,y)$-analogue of Laguerre polynomials $L^{(\alpha)}_n(x;y;q)$ for integral $\alpha\geq -1$, which turns out to be a rescaled version of Al-Salam--Chihara polynomials. A combinatorial interpretation for the $(q,y)$-Laguerre…
Consider \begin{align*} G(N,M;\alpha,\beta,K,q) = \sum\limits_{j\in\mathbb{Z}}(-1)^jq^{\frac{1}{2}Kj((\alpha+\beta)j+\alpha-\beta)}\left[\begin{matrix}M+N\\N-Kj\end{matrix}\right]_{q}. \end{align*} In this paper, we prove the non-negativity…
We show that a free period three action on a lens space is standard, i.e. the quotient is homeomorphic to a lens space. This is an extension of the result for period three actions on the three-sphere, arXiv:math.GT/0204077, by the author…
We show that any 3-dimensional homotopy lens space M^3 that is simple-homotopy equivalent to a lens space L(p,q) is topologically s-cobordant to the lens space. It follows that M has the same multi-signature as L(p,q) and the action of…
In an earlier paper, we used the absolute grading on Heegaard Floer homology to give restrictions on knots in $S^3$ which admit lens space surgeries. The aim of the present article is to exhibit stronger restrictions on such knots, arising…
A comprehensive account of the categorical properties of the category of small categories and asymmetric delta lenses is given in the recent works of Chollet et al. and Di Meglio. An important construction for proving many of these…
