This paper concerns the \textbf{abstract geometry of numbers}: namely the pursuit of certain aspects of geometry of numbers over a suitable class of normed domains. (The standard geometry of numbers is then viewed as geometry of numbers…
Consider a random multigraph G* with given vertex degrees d_1,...,d_n, contructed by the configuration model. We show that, asymptotically for a sequence of such multigraphs with the number of edges (d_1+...+d_n)/2 tending to infinity, the…
This note contains old instead of new results about random walks on groups, which may serve as a small supplement to the author's monograph ``Random Walks on Infinite Graphs and Groups'' (Cambridge Univ. Press 2000/2009). First, we exhibit…
Integrated information theory (IIT) is a theoretical framework that provides a quantitative measure to estimate when a physical system is conscious, its degree of consciousness, and the complexity of the qualia space that the system is…
This set of Montreal lectures is an elementary and sketchy introduction to the general field of random matrices. The first half is devoted to combinatorial models, whereas the second half deals with random matrix questions(GUE, etc...).
We consider and discretize a mixed formulation for linear elasticity with weakly imposed symmetry in two and three dimensions. Whereas existing methods mainly deal with simplicial or polygonal meshes, we take advantage of isogeometric…
We discuss the relationship between logic, geometry and probability theory under the light of a novel approach to quantum probabilities which generalizes the method developed by R. T. Cox to the quantum logical approach to physical…
Twenty years ago Gromov asked about how large is the set of isomorphism classes of groups whose systolic area is bounded from above. This article introduces a new combinatorial invariant for finitely presentable groups called {\it…
In this paper we introduce a path complex that can be regarded as a generalization of the notion of a simplicial complex. The main motivation for considering path complexes comes from directed graphs(digraphs). We obtain a new notion of the…
The course was given at Peking University, Fall 2019. We discuss the following subjects: (1) Introduction to general topology, hyperspaces, metric and pseudometric spaces, graph theory. (2) Graphs in metric spaces, minimum spanning tree,…
In information geometry, one of the basic problem is to study the geomet-ric properties of statistical manifold. In this paper, we study the geometricstructure of the generalized normal distribution manifold and show that it has constant…
A fairly non-technical introduction to and survey of supersymmetry phenomenology with pedagogical emphasis, including exercises. Suitable for both theorists and experimentalists. The manuscript appeared as a Springer-Verlag monograph in…
The basic idea behind information algebras is that information comes in pieces, each referring to a certain question, that these pieces can be combined or aggregated and that the part relating to a given question can be extracted. This…
These lecture notes are intended to cover some introductory topics in stochastic simulation for scientific computing courses offered by the IT department at Uppsala University, as taught by the author. Basic concepts in probability theory…
This text is an introduction to algebraic enumerative geometry and to applications of tropical geometry to classical geometry, based on a course given during the X-UPS mathematical days, 2008 May 14th and 15th. The aim of this text is to be…
Geometric complexity theory (GCT) is an approach to the $P$ vs. $NP$ and related problems through algebraic geometry and representation theory. This article gives a high-level exposition of the basic plan of GCT based on the principle,…
These lecture notes provide an introduction to logarithmic geometry with a view towards recent applications in the desingularization theory.
In this work, a novel model of the random geometric graph (RGG), namely the isotropic random geometric graph (IRGG) has been developed and its topological properties in two dimensions have been studied in details. The defining…
This paper presents a brief but comprehensive introduction to certain mathematical techniques in General Relativity. Familiar mathematical procedures are investigated taking into account the complications of introducing a non trivial…
In the footsteps of the book \textit{Measure Theory and Integration By and For the Learner} of our series in Probability Theory and Statistics, we intended to devote a special volume of the very probabilistic aspects of the first cited…
