Recently, there is an explosive growth of activities to understand stringy properties of orbifolds. In this article, we survey some of recent developments.
This survey paper describes the role of splines in geometry and topology, emphasizing both similarities and differences from the classical treatment of splines. The exposition is non-technical and contains many examples, with references to…
In this paper we collect the main properties of free curves in the complex projective plane and a lot of conjectures and open problems, both old and new. In the quest to understand the mystery of free curves, many tools were developed and…
One of the possible variants of the classification of trigonometric interpolation splines is considered, depending on the chosen convergence factors, the distribution of signs of the basis functions and the interpolation factors. The…
We introduce here a direct method to construct multivariate explicit B-spline bases. B-splines are piecewise polynomials, which are defined on adjacent tetrahedra and which are $C^{r}$ continuous throughout. The $C^{r}$ continuity is…
Conventional X-ray methods use incoming plane waves and result in discrete diffraction patterns when scattered at crystals. Here we find, by a systematic method, incoming waveforms which exhibit discrete diffraction patterns when scattered…
We introduce an alternate model to describe twistons in crystalline polyethylene. The model couples torsional and longitudinal degrees of freedom and appears as an extension of a model that describes only the torsional motion. We find exact…
D-branes are classified by twisted K-theory. Yet twisted K-theory is often hard to calculate. We argue that, in the case of a compactification on a simply-connected six manifold, twisted K-theory is isomorphic to a much simpler object,…
Studying the topological aspects of M-branes in M-theory leads to various structures related to Wu classes. First we interpret Wu classes themselves as twisted classes and then define twisted notions of Wu structures. These generalize many…
This paper describes some algebraic properties of the species of finite topological quandles. We construct two twisted bialgebra structures on this species, one of the first kind and one of the second kind. The obstruction for the structure…
We study an SL(2, Z) symmetry of a variant of BCOV theory in three complex dimensions. Using conjectural descriptions of twists of superstrings in terms of topological strings, we argue that this action can be thought of as a version of…
The work examines norms in of fundamental trigonometric splines of odd and even degrees, which in some cases coincide with polynomial ones. Fundamental trigonometric splines for the case where the con-vergence factors depend on the…
Periodic splines are a special kind of splines that are defined over a set of knots over a circle and are adequate for solving interpolation problems related to closed curves. This paper presents a method of implementing the objects…
A recently proposed variation on the usual procedure to perform the topological B-twist in rigid $N=2$ models is applied to the case of the $\sigma $ model on a K\"ahler manifold. This leads to an alternative description of Witten's…
Multi-degree splines are piecewise polynomial functions having sections of different degrees. They offer significant advantages over the classical uniform-degree framework, as they allow for modeling complex geometries with fewer degrees of…
In this paper, we consider the convolutions of slanted half-plane mappings and strip mappings and generalize related results in general settings. We also consider a class of harmonic mappings containing slanted half-plane mappings and strip…
A complete study of the structure of Ricci collineations for type B warped spacetimes is carried out. This study can be used as a method to obtain these symetries in such spacetimes. Special cases as 2+2 reducible spacetimes, and plane and…
In this paper we describe explicitly how the twisted ``bundles'' on a D-brane worldvolume in the presence of a nontrivial B field, can be understood in terms of sheaves on stacks. We also take this opportunity to provide the physics…
In this paper, we study the complex Landsberg spaces and some of their important subclasses. We introduce and characterize the class of generalized Berwald and complex Landsberg spaces. The intersection of these spaces gives the so called…
Following the recent work of Connes, Douglas and Schwarz, we study the M(atrix) model compactified on a torus with a background of the three-form field. This model is given by a super Yang-Mills theory on a quantum torus. To consider…
