On a Finsler manifold $(M,L)$, we consider the change $L\longrightarrow\bar{L}(x,y)=e^{\sigma(x)}L(x,y)+\beta (x,y)$, which we call a $\beta$-conformal change. This change generalizes various types of changes in Finsler geometry: conformal,…
In the case of two-dimensional cyclic quotient singularities, we classify all one-parameter toric deformations in terms of certain Minkowski decompositions. In particular, we describe to which components each such deformation maps, show how…
Let $\| \cdot \|$ be the euclidean norm on ${\bf R}^n$ and $\gamma_n$ the (standard) Gaussian measure on ${\bf R}^n$ with density $(2 \pi )^{-n/2} e^{- \| x\|^2 /2}$. Let $\vartheta$ ($ \simeq 1.3489795$) be defined by $\gamma_1 ([ -…
Quasi-primary correlators in two-dimensional conformal field theories deformed simultaneously by $T\bar T$ and root-$T\bar T$ are studied. A path-integral formulation motivated by the geometric realization of the combined deformation is…
This paper is aimed to identify some new characterizations and representations of the Minkowski inverse in Minkowski space. First of all, a few representations of {1,3m}, {1,2,3m}, {1,4m} and {1,2,4m}-inverses are given in order to…
In the thesis, results presented in various papers involving the author are reviewed. First, general results about consistent deformations at first order (i.e. cubic) using the antifield formalism in Minkowski spacetime are gathered.…
In this paper, we prove the existence of hypersurfaces in the Euclidean space with prescribed boundary and whose k-th Weingarten curvature equals a given function that depends on the normal of the hypersurface. The proof is based on the…
In this paper, we generalize Minkowski's theorem. This theorem is usually stated for a centrally symmetric convex body and a lattice both included in $\mathbb{R}^n$. In some situations, one may replace the lattice by a more general set for…
Whenever a given Poisson manifold is equipped with discrete symmetries the corresponding algebra of invariant functions or the algebra of functions twisted by the symmetry group can have new deformations, which are not captured by…
In this paper, we generalize the defining equation for de Sitter space by replacing the de Sitter radius with a function $f$ satisfying certain conditions; each resulting hypersurface is diffeomorphic to de Sitter space, and has a geometry…
We describe the generalized kappa-deformations of D=4 relativistic symmetries with finite masslike deformation parameter kappa and an arbitrary direction in kappa-deformed Minkowski space being noncommutative. The corresponding bicovariant…
We investigate Benford's law in relation to fractal geometry. Basic fractals, such as the Cantor set and Sierpinski triangle are obtained as the limit of iterative sets, and the unique measures of their components follow a geometric…
We introduce canonical coordinates on minimal time-like surfaces in the n-dimensional Minkowski space and prove the existence and the uniqueness of these parameters. With respect to these coordinates the coefficients of the first…
The WKB approximation for deformed space with minimal length is considered. The Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization rule is obtained. A new interesting feature in presence of deformation is that the WKB approximation is valid for intermediate…
We revisit the field content and consistency of the New General Relativity family of theories. These theories are constructed in a geometrical framework with a flat and metric-compatible connection, so the affine structure is entirely…
The aim of this paper is to develop a basic framework of the $L_p$ theory for the geometry of log-concave functions, which can be viewed as a functional "lifting" of the $L_p$ Brunn-Minkowski theory for convex bodies. To fulfill this goal,…
We show that regularizing $(2+1)$-dimensional Minkowski spacetime with a finite-resolution Gaussian probe, analogous to Weyl-Heisenberg (Gabor) signal analysis and related quantization, induces a curved geometry with a topological defect.…
Recent studies in several interrelated areas -- from combinatorics and representation theory in mathematics to quantum field theory and topological string theory in physics -- have independently revealed that many classical objects in these…
Let $\mathcal{H}(b)$ be the de Branges-Rovnyak space associated to a non-extreme point $b$ of the unit ball of $H^\infty$, and let $\phi=b/a$, where $a$ is the Pythagorean mate of $b$. It is known that, if $f$ is a function holomorphic on a…
For a collection of convex bodies $P_1,\dots,P_n \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ containing the origin, a Minkowski complex is given by those subsets whose Minkowski sum does not contain a fixed basepoint. Every simplicial complex can be realized as…
