We construct a two parameter family of 2-particle Hamiltonians closed under the duality operation of interchanging the (relative) momentum and coordinate. Both coordinate and momentum dependence are elliptic, and the modulus of the momentum…
We relate degree one grasper families of embedded circles to various constructions of diffeomorphisms found in the literature -- theta clasper classes of Watanabe, barbell diffeomorphisms of Budney and Gabai, and twin twists of Gay and…
Let $M$ to be a matroid defined on a finite set $E$ and $L\subset E$. $L$ is locked in $M$ if $M|L$ and $M^*|(E\backslash L)$ are 2-connected, and $min\{r(L), r^*(E\backslash L)\} \geq 2$. In this paper, we prove that the nontrivial facets…
In this thesis, we focus on the study of the base rings associated to some transversal polymatroids. A transversal polymatroid is a special kind of discrete polymatroid. Discrete polymatroids were introduced by Herzog and Hibi \cite{HH} in…
The class of 2-regular matroids is a natural generalisation of regular and near-regular matroids. We prove an excluded-minor characterisation for the class of 2-regular matroids. The class of 3-regular matroids coincides with the class of…
In this paper, we prove that the class of all special Gelfand--Dorfman algebras (GD-algebras) is closed with respect to homomorphisms and thus forms a variety. We also prove that every 2-dimensional GD-algebra is special. For the latter, we…
The singleton and doubleton minors of a polymatroid $\rho$ encode a surprising amount of information about the structural complexity of $\rho$. Given any polymatroid $\rho$, we can subtract from it a maximally-separated polymatroid,…
We conjecture that the class of frame matroids can be characterised by a sentence in the monadic second-order logic of matroids, and we prove that there is such a characterisation for the class of bicircular matroids. The proof does not…
In this paper we provide two recognition algorithms for the class of signed-graphic matroids along with necessary and sufficient conditions for a matroid to be signed-graphic. Specifically, we provide a polynomial-time algorithm which…
In this paper, we develop the mathematical tools needed to explore isotopy classes of tilings on hyperbolic surfaces of finite genus, possibly nonorientable, with boundary, and punctured. More specifically, we generalize results on…
We introduce permutrees, a unified model for permutations, binary trees, Cambrian trees and binary sequences. On the combinatorial side, we study the rotation lattices on permutrees and their lattice homomorphisms, unifying the weak order,…
This work studies collections of Hilbert space operators which possess a strict monoid structure under composition. These collections can be thought of as discrete unital semigroups for which no subset of the collection is closed under…
We provide a familiy of transparent tight-binding models with non-trivial potentials and site-dependent hopping parameters. Their feasibility is discussed in electromagnetic resonators, dielectric slabs and quantum-mechanical traps. In the…
Delta lenses are functors equipped with a suitable choice of lifts, generalising the notion of split opfibration. In recent work, delta lenses were characterised as the right class of an algebraic weak factorisation system. In this paper,…
Riemann surfaces with nodes can be described by introducing simple composite operators in matrix models. In the case of the Kontsevich model, it is sufficient to add the quadratic, but ``non-propagating'', term (tr[X])^2 to the Lagrangian.…
We consider the problem of the determination of the isotropy classes of the orbit spaces of all the real linear groups, with three independent basic invariants satisfying only one independent relation. The results are obtained in the $\hat…
A recent result of Funayoshi-Koda shows that a handlebody-knot of genus two has a finite symmetry group if and only if it is hyperbolic -- the exterior admits a hyperbolic structure with totally geodesic boundary -- or irreducible,…
In the present paper we describe a new class of Gelfand--Tsetlin modules for an arbitrary complex simple finite-dimensional Lie algebra g and give their geometric realization as the space of delta-functions" on the flag manifold G/B…
Given a matroid and a group of its matroid automorphisms, we study the induced group action on the Chow ring of the matroid. This turns out to always be a permutation action. Work of Adiprasito, Huh and Katz showed that the Chow ring…
Panhandle matroids are a specific family of lattice-path matroids corresponding to panhandle-shaped Ferrers diagrams. Their matroid polytopes are the subpolytopes carved from a hypersimplex to form matroid polytopes of paving matroids. It…
