We describe a new approach to the definition of the moduli functor of stable varieties. While there is wide agreement as to what classes of varieties should appear, the notion of a family of stable surfaces is quite subtle, as key numerical…
We discuss the $SU(5)$ grand unified extension of flavour models with multiple modular symmetries. The proposed model involves two modular $S_4$ groups, one acting in the charged fermion sector, associated with a modulus field value…
Let $R$ be a finite ring and let $M, N$ be two finite left $R$-modules. We present two distinct deterministic algorithms that decide in polynomial time whether or not $M$ and $N$ are isomorphic, and if they are, exhibit an isomorphism. As…
We have investigated the modular binary octahedral group $2O$ as a flavor symmetry to explain the structure of Standard Model. The vector-valued modular forms in all irreducible representations of this group are constructed. We have…
We define a simple, explicit map sending a morphism $f:M \rightarrow N$ of pointwise finite dimensional persistence modules to a matching between the barcodes of $M$ and $N$. Our main result is that, in a precise sense, the quality of this…
We extend the framework of non-holomorphic modular flavor symmetry to include the odd weight polyharmonic Maa{\ss} forms. The integer weight polyharmonic Maa{\ss} forms of level $N$ can be arranged into multipltets of the homogeneous finite…
We construct a model in which the hierarchies of the quark and lepton masses and mixing are explained by the $\Gamma_6^\prime$ modular flavor symmetry. The hierarchies are realized by the Froggatt-Nielsen-like mechanism due to the residual…
String compactifications on an orbi-folded torus with complex structure give rise to chiral fermions, spontaneously broken CP, modular invariance. We show that this allows simple effective theories of flavour and CP where: i) the QCD angle…
We investigate the algebras of invariants and the properties of the quotient morphism by an action of a finite group scheme in terms of stabilizers of points.
We examine the inter-relationship of the superpotential containing hidden and observable matter fields and the ensuing condensates in free fermionic string models. These gauge and matter condensates of the strongly interacting hidden gauge…
We consider the question of defining interleaving metrics on generalized persistence modules over arbitrary preordered sets. Our constructions are functorial, which implies a form of stability for these metrics. We describe a large class of…
We generalize the modular invariance approach to include the half-integral weight modular forms. Accordingly the modular group should be extended to its metaplectic covering group for consistency. We introduce the well-defined half-integral…
We discuss our recently proposed S3(down)xS3(up) flavour-permutation-symmetric mixing observables, giving expressions for them in terms of (moduli-squared) of the mixing matrix elements. We outline their successful use in providing…
Particle physics theories, such as those which explain neutrino flavor mixing, arise from a vast landscape of model-building possibilities. A model's construction typically relies on the intuition of theorists. It also requires considerable…
We formulate a theory of instability and Harder-Narasimhan filtrations for an arbitrary moduli problem in algebraic geometry. We introduce the notion of a $\Theta$-stratification of a moduli problem, which generalizes the Kempf-Ness…
We introduce a geometric and operator-theoretic formalism viewing optimization algorithms as discrete connections on a space of update operators. Each iterative method is encoded by two coupled channels-drift and diffusion-whose algebraic…
We propose a solution to the SUSY $\mu$-problem within the framework of modular flavor symmetry. The explicit $\mu$-term is prohibited by modular symmetry, and an effective $\mu$-term is regenerated following the stabilization of the…
We show that the main features of the pattern of fermion masses and mixing can be expressed in terms of simple relations among weak-basis invariants. In the quark sector, we identify the weak-basis invariants which signal the observed…
In this paper we study a system of coupled nonlinear Schrodinger equations modelling a quantum degenerate mixture of bosons and fermions. We analyze the stability of plane waves, give precise conditions for the existence of solitons and…
We study the modular symmetric standard-model effective field theory. We employ the stringy Ansatz on coupling structure that 4-point couplings $y^{(4)}$ of matter fields are written by a product of 3-point couplings $y^{(3)}$ of matter…
