We study the motion of smooth, closed, strictly convex hypersurfaces in Rn+1 expanding in the direction of their normal vector field with speed depending on the k-th elementary symmetric polynomial of the principal radii of curvature. As an…

After a brief digression on the current landscape of theoretical physics and on some open questions pertaining to coherence with experimental results, still to be settled, it is shown that the properties of the Deformed Minkowski space lead…

At the classical level, redefinitions of the field content of a Lagrangian allow to rewrite an interacting model on a flat target space, in the form of a free field model (no potential term) on a curved target space. In the present work we…

In Euclidean space, the generalised Minkowski problem asks, for a given finite Radon measure $\mu$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^d$, to find a compact convex set $K$ with area measure $\mu$. For convex sets in the Minkowski space invariant…

This paper focuses on estimating the Taylor coefficients for Hilbert spaces of holomorphic functions on the disk using intrinsic features of univalent functions and of Teichmuller spaces. Estimating these coefficients has a long history but…

We present Lie-algebraic deformations of Minkowski space with undeformed Poincar\'{e} algebra. These deformations interpolate between Snyder and $\kappa$-Minkowski space. We find realizations of noncommutative coordinates in terms of…

In this paper, I will show how to use $\beta$-deformations to deal with dual flatness of $(\alpha,\beta)$-metrics. It is a natural continuation of the research on dually flat Randers metrics(see arxiv:1209.1150). $\beta$-deformations is a…

We generalise the entropic force description of gravity into $\kappa$-Minkowski space-time and derive the $\kappa$-deformed corrections to the Newton's gravitational force. Using this we show the appearance of logarithmic correction as the…

We begin the study of PBW deformations of graded algebras relevant to the theory of Hopf algebras. One of our examples is the Fomin-Kirillov algebra FK3. Another one appeared in a paper of Garc\'ia Iglesias and Vay. As a consequence of our…

A method to generalize results from Riemannian Geometry to Finsler geometry is presented. We use the method to generalize several results that involve only metric conditions. Between them we show that the topology induced by the Finsler…

We show that if $T=H+iK$ is the Cartesian decomposition of $T\in \mathbb{B(\mathscr{H})}$, then for $\alpha ,\beta \in \mathbb{R}$, $\sup_{\alpha ^{2}+\beta ^{2}=1}\Vert \alpha H+\beta K\Vert =w(T)$. We then apply it to prove that if…

Since the end of the 19th century, and after the works of F. Klein and H. Poincar\'e, it is well known that models of elliptic geometry and hyperbolic geometry can be given using projective geometry, and that Euclidean geometry can be seen…
