Unitary $t$-designs are a ubiquitous tool in many research areas, including randomized benchmarking, quantum process tomography, and scrambling. Despite the intensive efforts of many researchers, little is known about unitary $t$-designs…
For integers $d \geq 2$ and $\epsilon = 0$ or 1, let $S^{1, d - 1}(\epsilon)$ denote the sphere product $S^{1} \times S^{d - 1}$ if $\epsilon = 0$ and the twisted $S^{d - 1}$ bundle over $S^{1}$ if $\epsilon = 1$. The main results of this…
In this thesis, we use normal surface theory to understand certain properties of minimal triangulations of compact orientable 3-manifolds. We describe the collapsing process of normal 2-spheres and disks. Using some geometrical…
We give an inequality on the packing of vectors/lines in quaternionic Hilbert space $\Hd$, which generalises those of Sidelnikov and Welch for unit vectors in $\Rd$ and $\Cd$. This has a parameter $t$, and depends only on the vectors up to…
We report on the implementation of an algorithm for computing the set of all regular triangulations of finitely many points in Euclidean space. This algorithm, which we call down-flip reverse search, can be restricted, e.g., to computing…
Semantic segmentation for spherical data is a challenging problem in machine learning since conventional planar approaches require projecting the spherical image to the Euclidean plane. Representing the signal on a fundamentally different…
Evidence is presented to suggest that, in three dimensions, spherical 6-designs with N points exist for N=24, 26, >= 28; 7-designs for N=24, 30, 32, 34, >= 36; 8-designs for N=36, 40, 42, >= 44; 9-designs for N=48, 50, 52, >= 54; 10-designs…
Determining the number of (complex) realisations of a rigid graph for a specific choice of edge lengths is a fundamental problem in discrete geometry. In this article we provide two new tools for determining realisation numbers in arbitrary…
Octupolar tensors are third order, completely symmetric and traceless tensors. Whereas in 2D an octupolar tensor has the same symmetries as an equilateral triangle and can ultimately be identified with a vector in the plane, the symmetries…
In 1987 Brehm and K\"uhnel showed that any triangulation of a $d$-manifold (without boundary) that is not homeomorphic to the sphere has at least $3d/2+3$ vertices. Moreover, triangulations with exactly $3d/2+3$ vertices may exist only for…
Despite extensive research on symmetric polynomial quadrature rules for triangles, as well as approaches to their calculation, few studies have focused on non-polynomial functions, particularly on their integration using symmetric triangle…
This paper presents the development of a complete CAD-compatible framework for structural shape optimization in 3D. The boundaries of the domain are described using NURBS while the interior is discretized with B\'ezier tetrahedra. The…
The search for universality in random triangulations of manifolds, like those featuring in (Euclidean) Dynamical Triangulations, is central to the random geometry approach to quantum gravity. In case of the 3-sphere, or any other manifold…
A centrally symmetric $2d$-vertex combinatorial triangulation of the product of spheres $\S^i\times\S^{d-2-i}$ is constructed for all pairs of non-negative integers $i$ and $d$ with $0\leq i \leq d-2$. For the case of $i=d-2-i$, the…
While the angular-momentum projection is a common tool for theoretical nuclear structure studies, a large amount of computations are required particularly for triaxially deformed states. In the present work, we clarify the conditions of the…
A rational spherical triangle is a triangle on the unit sphere such that the lengths of its three sides and its area are rational multiples of $\pi$. Little and Coxeter have given examples of rational spherical triangles in 1980s. In this…
The study of good nonregular fractional factorial designs has received significant attention over the last two decades. Recent research indicates that designs constructed from quaternary codes (QC) are very promising in this regard. The…

Three--dimensional colored triangulations are gluings of tetrahedra whose faces carry the colors 0, 1, 2, 3 and in which the attaching maps between tetrahedra are defined using the colors. This framework makes it possible to generalize the…
The isometric embedding of surfaces in three-dimensional space is fundamental to various physical systems, from elastic sheets to programmable materials. While continuous surfaces typically admit unique solutions under suitable boundary…
