We extend well-known results on the Newtonian limit of Lorentzian metrics to orthonormal frames. Concretely, we prove that, given a one-parameter family of Lorentzian metrics that in the Newtonian limit converges to a Galilei structure, any…
3D frame fields are auxiliary for hexahedral mesh generation. There mainly exist three ways to represent 3D frames: combination of rotations, spherical harmonics and fourth order tensor. We propose here a representation carried out by the…
In these lecture notes, I describe the motivation behind a recent formulation of a non-perturbative gravitational path integral for Lorentzian (instead of the usual Euclidean) space-times, and give a pedagogical introduction to its main…
The rhombus tilings of a simply connected domain of the Euclidean plane are known to form a flip-connected space (a flip is the elementary operation on rhombus tilings which rotates 180{\deg} a hexagon made of three rhombi). Motivated by…
A parametric curve $\gamma$ of class $C^n$ on the $n$-sphere is said to be nondegenerate (or locally convex) when $\det\left(\gamma(t),\gamma'(t),\cdots,\gamma^{(n)}(t)\right)>0$ for all values of the parameter $t$. We orthogonalize this…
The debate on the physical relevance of conformal transformations can be faced by taking the Palatini approach into account to gravitational theories. We show that conformal transformations are not only a mathematical tool to disentangle…
The Euclidean distance geometry problem arises in a wide variety of applications, from determining molecular conformations in computational chemistry to localization in sensor networks. When the distance information is incomplete, the…
We study the problem of approximating orthogonal matrices so that their application is numerically fast and yet accurate. We find an approximation by solving an optimization problem over a set of structured matrices, that we call extended…
A polygonal complex in euclidean 3-space is a discrete polyhedron-like structure with finite or infinite polygons as faces and finite graphs as vertex-figures, such that a fixed number r of faces surround each edge. It is said to be regular…
Let group generators having finite-dimensional representation be realized as Hermitian linear differential operators without nhomogeneous terms as takes place, for example, for the SO(n) group. Then orresponding group Hamiltonians…
A moving parallel frame method is applied to geometric non-stretching curve flows in the Hermitian symmetric space Sp(n)/U(n) to derive new integrable systems with unitary invariance. These systems consist of a bi-Hamiltonian modified…

Frames are the most natural generalization of orthonormal bases that allow the inclusion of redundant systems. In this article, we introduce the concept of frames generated by graphs in finite-dimensional spaces and study their properties.…

Let $G$ be a connected complex semisimple Lie group, $\Gamma$ be a cocompact, irreducible and torsionless lattice in $G$ and $K$ be a maximal compact subgroup of $G$. Assume $\Gamma$ acts by left multiplication and $K$ acts by right…
Lattice rounding in Euclidean space can be viewed as finding the nearest point in the orbit of an action by a discrete group, relative to the norm inherited from the ambient space. Using this point of view, we initiate the study of…
