This paper sheds light on the essential characteristics of geodesics, which frequently occur in considerations from motion in Euclidean space. Focus is mainly on a method of obtaining them from the calculus of variations, and an explicit…
These twenty-two lectures, with exercises, comprise the extent of what was meant to be a full-year graduate-level course on the strong interactions and QCD, given at Caltech in 1987-88. The course was cut short by the illness that led to…
Here we provide a complete English translation of Walter Gr\"obli's 1877 Ph.D. Thesis, together with some notes on the process. The work considers the dynamics of point vortices in a two-dimensional inviscid incompressible fluid and derives…
Grothendieck's Esquisse d'un programme is often referred to for the ideas it contains on dessins d'enfants, the Teichm{\"u}ller tower, and the actions of the absolute Galois group on these objects or their etale fundamental groups. But this…
Using a key observation due to Thiemann, a generalized Wick transform is introduced to map the constraint functionals of Riemannian general relativity to those of the Lorentzian theory, including matter sources. This opens up a new avenue…
We study relationships between the Nisnevich topology on smooth schemes and certain Grothendieck topologies on proper and not necessarily proper modulus pairs which were introduced respectively in [9] and [3]. Our results play an important…
The probabilistic investigation on record values and record times of a sequence of random variables defined on the same probability space has received much attention from 1952 to now. A great deal of such theory focused on \textit{iid} or…
This talk is dedicated to various aspects of Mirror Symmetry. It summarizes some of the mathematical developments that took place since M. Kontsevich's report at the Z\"urich ICM and provides an extensive, although not exhaustive,…
Lectures deliverd at the NATO Advanced Study Institute on QCD Perspectives on Hot and Dense Matter, Cargese, Aug. 6 - 18, 2001. Dedicated to the memory of Dominique Vautherin.
This article introduces, informally, the substance and the spirit of Grothendieck's theory of the Picard scheme, highlighting its elegant simplicity, natural generality, and ingenious originality against the larger historical record.
We revisit the complex time method for the application to quantum dynamics as an exceptional point is encircled in the parameter space of the Hamiltonian. The basic idea of the complex time method is using complex contour integration to…
This work relates to the famous experiments, performed in 1975 and 1979 by Werner et al., measuring neutron interference and neutron Sagnac effects in the earth's gravitational field. Employing the method of Stodolsky in its weak field…
A very small amount of K\"ahler algebra (i.e. Clifford algebra of differential forms) in the real plane makes x + ydxdy emerge as a factor between the differentials of the Cartesian and polar coordinates, largely replacing the concept of…
In the first part of the paper we continue the study of solutions to Schr\"odinger equations with a time singularity in the dispersive relation and in the periodic setting. In the second we show that if the Schr\"odinger operator involves a…
The circle method has been successfully used over the last century to study rational points on hypersurfaces. More recently, a version of the method over function fields, combined with spreading out techniques, has led to a range of results…
In this series of seven papers, predominantly by means of elementary analysis, we establish a number of identities related to the Riemann zeta function. Whilst this paper is mainly expository, some of the formulae reported in it are…
These notes contain part of the lectures of an introductory course on orthogonal polynomials and special functions that I gave in the joint PhD Program in Mathematics UC|UP in the academic years 2015-2016 (at University of Porto) and…
These are lectures notes for the introductory graduate courses on geometric complexity theory (GCT) in the computer science department, the university of Chicago. Part I consists of the lecture notes for the course given by the first author…
This paper is part of series on self-contained papers in which a large part, if not the full extent, of the asymptotic limit theory of summands of independent random variables is exposed. Each paper of the series may be taken as review…
This paper is based on the author's talk at the Grothendieck conference at Chapman university on 26-05-2022. It is not a survey of anabelian geometry but rather exposes some of the personal views and experiences of the author with the…
