In this monograph, we lay some foundations of a theory of infinite dimensional Euclidean lattices - and more generally, of infinite dimensional Hermitian vector bundles over some "arithmetic curve" ${\rm Spec}\,\mathcal{O}_K$ attached to…
Euclidean lattices occupy a central position in number theory, the geometry of numbers, and modern cryptography. In the present article, the theory of Euclidean lattices is employed to investigate normed $\mathbb{Z}$-modules of finite rank.…
In this paper we study the arithmetic invariants of Euclidean lattice in the context of Arakelov geometry. We regard a Euclidean lattice as a hermitian vector bundle $\bar E$ on ${\rm Spec}(\mathbb{Z})$ and consider two typical arithmetic…
A periodic lattice in Euclidean space is the infinite set of all integer linear combinations of basis vectors. Any lattice can be generated by infinitely many different bases. This ambiguity was only partially resolved, but standard…
We present alternative postulates for Euclidean geometry whose merit is that they lead to a new class of invariants and associated geometries for real finite-dimensional unital associative algebras.
Materials science and the study of the electronic properties of solids are a major field of interest in both physics and engineering. The starting point for all such calculations is single-electron, or non-interacting, band structure…

We introduce a theory of relative tangency for projective algebraic varieties. The dual variety $X_Z^\vee$ of a variety $X$ relative to a subvariety $Z$ is the set of hyperplanes tangent to $X$ at a point of $Z$. We also introduce the…
The last years have witnessed rapid progress in the topological characterization of out-of-equilibrium systems. We report on robust signatures of a new type of topology -- the Euler class -- in such a dynamical setting. The enigmatic…
At any point of a surface in the four-dimensional Euclidean space we consider the geometric configuration consisting of two figures: the tangent indicatrix, which is a conic in the tangent plane, and the normal curvature ellipse. We show…
Let $\Lambda$ be any integral lattice in Euclidean space. It has been shown that for every integer $n>0$, there is a hypersphere that passes through exactly $n$ points of $\Lambda$. Using this result, we introduce new lattice invariants and…
We study variational systems for space curves, for which the Lagrangian or action principle has a Euclidean symmetry, using the Rotation Minimising frame, also known as the Normal, Parallel or Bishop frame. Such systems have previously been…
With any integral lattice \Lambda in n-dimensional euclidean space we associate an elementary abelian 2-group I(\lambda) whose elements represent parts of the dual lattice that are similar to \Lambda. There are corresponding involutions on…
We derive lattice invariants from the heat flux of a lattice. Using systems of harmonic polynomials, we obtain sums of products of spherical theta functions which give new invariants of integer lattices which are modular forms. In…
This article is a continuation of work on construction and calculation various of modifications of invariant based on the use Euclidean metric values attributed to elements of manifold triangulation. We again address the well investigated…
We introduce a dynamical lattice regulator for Euclidean quantum field theories on a fixed hypercubic graph $\Lambda\simeq\mathbb{Z}^d$, in which the embedding $x:\Lambda\to\mathbb{R}^d$ is promoted to a dynamical field and integrated over…
A main goal in the field of statistical shape analysis is to define computable and informative metrics on spaces of immersed manifolds, such as the space of curves in a Euclidean space. The approach taken in the elastic shape analysis…

In this article we introduce theory and algorithms for learning discrete representations that take on a lattice that is embedded in an Euclidean space. Lattice representations possess an interesting combination of properties: a) they can be…
This paper offers a pedestrian guide from the fundamental properties of entropy to the axioms of thermodynamics, which are a consequence of the axiom of statistical physics. It also dismantles flawed concepts, such as assigning physical…
