A special class of Jordan algebras over a field $F$ of characteristic zero is considered. Such an algebra consists of an $r$-dimensional subspace of the vector space of all square matrices of a fixed order $n$ over $F$. It contains the…
We prove that the stabilization of spaces functor---the classical construction of associating a spectrum to a pointed space by tensoring with the sphere spectrum---satisfies homotopical descent on objects and morphisms. This is the…
The observable properties of topological quantum matter are often described by topological field theories. We here demonstrate that this principle extends beyond thermal equilibrium. To this end, we construct a model of two-dimensional…
We construct a Jordan curve $\Gamma \subset \mathbb{C}$ so that for any rectifiable arc $\sigma$ with endpoints in distinct complementary components of $\Gamma$, $H^1(\sigma \cap \Gamma) > 0$.
The notion of a topological Jordan decomposition of a compact element of a reductive p-adic group has proven useful in many contexts. In this paper, we generalise it to groups defined over fairly general discretely-valued fields and prove…
We prove a topological rigidity theorem for closed hypersurfaces of the Euclidean sphere and of an elliptic space form. It asserts that, under a lower bound hypothesis on the absolute value of the principal curvatures, the hypersurface is…
We prove that an analogue of Jordan's theorem on finite subgroups of general linear groups holds for the groups of biregular automorphisms of elliptic ruled surfaces. This gives a positive answer to a question of Vladimir L. Popov.
We study the $\epsilon$-level sets of the signed distance function to a planar Jordan curve $\Gamma$, and ask what properties of $\Gamma$ ensure that the $\epsilon$-level sets are Jordan curves, or uniform quasicircles, or uniform chord-arc…
Topological phenomena are commonly studied in phases of matter which are separated from a trivial phase by an unavoidable quantum phase transition. This can be overly restrictive, leaving out scenarios of practical relevance -- similar to…
We provide counterexamples to the stable equivalence problem in every dimension $d\geq2$. That means that we construct hypersurfaces $H_1, H_2\subset\mathbb{C}^{d+1}$ whose cylinders $H_1\times\mathbb{C}$ and $H_2\times\mathbb{C}$ are…
The scalar-tensor theory is plagued by nagging questions if different conformal frames, in particular the Jordan and Einstein conformal frames, are equivalent to each other. As a closely related question, there are opposing views on which…
In recent years, gravitational models motivated by quantum corrections to gravity which introduce higher order terms like $R^{2}$ or terms in which the Riemann tensor is not symmetric have been studied by several authors in the form of a…
In this paper we consider a class of static spacetimes in higher dimensional ($D \ge 4$) scalar-torsion theories with non-minimal derivative coupling and the scalar potential turned on. The spacetime is conformal to a product space of a…
Understanding the topological structure of phase space for dynamical systems in higher dimensions is critical for numerous applications, including the computation of chemical reaction rates and transport of objects in the solar system. Many…
For $n\geq 3$, let $M$ be an $(n+r)$-dimensional irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of compact type and let $\mathcal{O}_M(1)$ be the ample generator of $Pic(M)$. Let $Y=H_1\cap\dots\cap H_r$ be a smooth complete intersection of…
We consider the problem of maintaining the Euclidean Delaunay triangulation $\DT$ of a set $P$ of $n$ moving points in the plane, along algebraic trajectories of constant description complexity. Since the best known upper bound on the…
Scalar tensor theories of gravity can be formulated in the Einstein or in the Jordan frame, which are related by the conformal transformations. Although the two frames are describe the same physics, and are equivalent, the stability of the…
In this paper we prove that if $\gamma$ is a Jordan curve on $\mathbb{S}^2$ then there is a smooth curve shortening flow defined on $(0,T)$ which converges to $\gamma$ in $\mathcal{C}^0$ as $t\to 0^+ $. Another perspective is that the…
We consider the Chow ring with rational coefficients of the Jacobian of a curve. Assume D is a divisor in a base point free g^r_d of the curve such that the canonical divisor K is a multiple of the divisor D. We find relations between…
We generalize some characterizations of uniformly rectifiable (UR) sets to sets whose Hausdorff content is lower regular (and in particular, do not need to be Ahlfors regular). For example, David and Semmes showed that, given an Ahlfors…
