The complex Minkowski phase space has the physical interpretation of the phase space of the scalar massive conformal particle. The aim of the paper is the construction and investigation of the quantum complex Minkowski space.
In the literature, the Minkowski-sum and the metric-sum of compact sets are highlighted. While the first is associative, the latter is not. But the major drawback of the Minkowski combination is that, by increasing the number of summands,…
In this note we give a detailed proof of certain results on geometry of numbers in the $S$-adic case. These results are well-known to experts, so the aim here is to provide a convenient reference for the people who need to use them.
The goal of this thesis is to study the use of the Kantorovich-Rubinstein distance as to build a descriptor of sample complexity in classification problems. The idea is to use the fact that the Kantorovich-Rubinstein distance is a metric in…
In "Weighted Brunn-Minkowski Theory I", the prequel to this work, we discussed how recent developments on concavity of measures have laid the foundations of a nascent weighted Brunn-Minkowski theory. In particular, we defined the mixed…
The question of what should be meant by a measurement is tackled from a mathematical perspective whose physical interpretation is that a measurement is a fundamental process via which a finite amount of classical information is produced.…
This talk reviews some mathematical and physical ideas related to the notion of dimension. After a brief historical introduction, various modern constructions from fractal geometry, noncommutative geometry, and theoretical physics are…
Formal definitions of quantities, quantity spaces, dimensions and dimension groups are introduced. Based on these concepts, a theoretical framework and a practical algorithm for dimensional analysis are developed, and examples of…
The phase space of a relativistic system can be identified with the future tube of complexified Minkowski space. As well as a complex structure and a symplectic structure, the future tube, seen as an eight-dimensional real manifold, is…
Dimension profiles were introduced by Falconer and Howroyd to provide formulae for the box-counting and packing dimensions of the orthogonal projections of a set E or a measure on Euclidean space onto almost all m-dimensional subspaces. The…
We define a one-parameter family of canonical volume measures on Lorentzian (pre-)length spaces. In the Lorentzian setting, this allows us to define a geometric dimension - akin to the Hausdorff dimension for metric spaces - that…
The main goal of this paper has a double purpose. On the one hand, we propose a new definition in order to compute the fractal dimension of a subset respect to any fractal structure, which completes the theory of classical box-counting…
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…
This paper first introduces a new generalized inverse in Minkowski space, called the m-DMP inverse, and discusses its algebraic and geometrical properties. The second objective is to characterize the m-DMP inverse equivalently by ranges,…
The theory of complex dimensions of fractal strings developed by Lapidus and van Frankenhuijsen has proven to be a powerful tool for the study of Minkowski measurability of fractal subsets of the real line. In a very general setting, the…
We review the current status of dimensions, as the result of a long and controversial history that includes input from philosophy and physics. Our conclusion is that they are subjective but essential concepts which provide a kind of…
We give a systematic and thorough study of geometric notions and results connected to Minkowski's measure of symmetry and the extension of the well-known Minkowski functional to arbitrary, not necessarily symmetric convex bodies K on any…
A metric measure space is a metric space with a Borel measure. In Gromov's theory of metric measure spaces, there are important invariants called the partial diameter and the observable diameter. We obtain the result that the partial…
Minkowski functionals provide a novel tool to characterize the large-scale galaxy distribution in the Universe. Here we give a brief tutorial on the basic features of these morphological measures and indicate their practical application for…
We give a closed expression for the Minkowski (1+1)-dimensional metric in the radar coordinates of an arbitrary non-inertial observer O in terms of O's proper acceleration. Knowledge of the metric allows the non-inertial observer to perform…
