Let $P=B\cup R$ be a set of $2n$ points in general position, where $B$ is a set of $n$ blue points and $R$ a set of $n$ red points. A \emph{$BR$-matching} is a plane geometric perfect matching on $P$ such that each edge has one red endpoint…
The middle-levels graph $M_k$ ($0<k\in\mathbb{Z}$) has a dihedral quotient pseudograph $R_k$ whose vertices are the $k$-edge ordered trees $T$, each $T$ encoded as a $(2k+1)$-string $F(T)$ formed via $\rightarrow$DFS by: {\bf(i)}…
Coloured Hopf algebras, related to the coloured Yang-Baxter equation, are reviewed, as well as their duals. The special case of coloured quantum universal enveloping algebras provides a coloured extension of Drinfeld and Jimbo formalism.…
A simple BRST-closed expression for the color-ordered super-Yang-Mills 5-point amplitude at tree-level is proposed in pure spinor superspace and shown to be BRST-equivalent to the field theory limit of the open superstring 5-pt amplitude.…
We compute exact finite-rank BPS generating functions for the fermionic matrix model with single-trace supercharge $Q_p=\operatorname{tr}(\Psi^p)$ at $(p,N)=(5,3),(5,4),(5,5),(7,4)$, together with partial data at $(7,5)$. In all complete…
From the world-sheet point of view we compute three, four and five point BPS and non-BPS scattering amplitudes of type IIA and IIB superstring theory. All these the mixed S-matrix elements including a closed string Ramond-Ramond (RR) in the…
The observed enhancement of $p\bar p$-production near the threshold in radiative decays of $J/\psi$ and $e^+e^-$-annihilations can be explained with final state interactions among the produced $N\bar N$ system, where the enhancement is…
The $PT$ symmetric potential $V_0[\cos(2\pi x/a)+i\lambda\sin(2\pi x/a)]$ has a completely real spectrum for $\lambda\le 1$, and begins to develop complex eigenvalues for $\lambda>1$. At the symmetry-breaking threshold $\lambda=1$ some of…
Let $E_n$ be Morava $E$-theory and let $G \subset G_n$ be a finite subgroup of $G_n$, the extended Morava stabilizer group. Let $E_{n}^{tG}$ be the Tate spectrum, defined as the cofiber of the norm map $N:(E_n)_{hG} \to E_n^{hG}$. We use…
Assume that $X$ is a connected $(q+1)$-regular undirected graph of finite order $n$. Let $A$ denote the adjacency matrix of $X$. Let $\lambda_1=q+1>\lambda_2\geq \lambda_3\geq \ldots \geq \lambda_n$ denote the eigenvalues of $A$. The…
For every $n\ge 0$, we construct classes in the Brown-Peterson cohomology $BP\langle n \rangle$ of smooth projective complex algebraic varieties which are not in the image of the cycle map from the corresponding motivic Brown-Peterson…
The paper provides bounds for the ropelength of a link in terms of the crossing numbers of its split components. As in earlier papers, the bounds grow with the square of the crossing number; however, the constant involved is a substantial…
BPS spectrum with finite number of states are found for higher rank four dimensional N=2 theory engineered from six dimensional A_{N-1} (2,0) theory on a Riemann surface with various kinds of defects. The wall crossing formula is…
Let $K$ be a global field of positive characteristic. We give an asymptotic formula for the number of $K$-points of bounded height on the Hilbert scheme $\text{Hilb}^2\mathbb{P}^2$ and show that by eliminating an exceptional thin set, the…
For a set of red and blue points in the plane, a minimum bichromatic spanning tree (MinBST) is a shortest spanning tree of the points such that every edge has a red and a blue endpoint. A MinBST can be computed in $O(n\log n)$ time where…
In this paper we study a spectrum $K(\mathcal{V}_k)$ such that $\pi_0 K(\mathcal{V}_k)$ is the Grothendieck ring of varieties and such that the higher homotopy groups contain more geometric information about the geometry of varieties. We…
We prove that a random graph $G(n,p)$, with $p$ above the Hamiltonicity threshold, is typically such that for any $r$-colouring of its edges there exists a Hamilton cycle with at least $(2/(r+ 1)-o(1))n$ edges of the same colour. This…
This paper investigates the algebraic structure that exists on perturbative BPS-states in the superstring, compactified on the product of a circle and a Calabi-Yau fourfold. This structure was defined in a recent article by Harvey and…
We study a modified version of Rognes' logarithmic structures on structured ring spectra. In our setup, we obtain canonical logarithmic structures on connective K-theory spectra which approximate the respective periodic spectra. The…
In this paper, we investigate equivariant quotients of the Real bordism spectrum's multiplicative norm $MU^{((C_{2^n}))}$ by permutation summands. These quotients are of interest because of their close relationship with higher real…
