In this paper is considered a problem of defining natural star-products on symplectic manifolds, admissible for quantization of classical Hamiltonian systems. First, a construction of a star-product on a cotangent bundle to an Euclidean…
In this work we propose a generalization of the Hadamard product between two matrices to a tensor-valued, multi-linear product between k matrices for any $k \ge 1$. A multi-linear dual operator to the generalized Hadamard product is…
In this paper we consider a generalization of a well known result by Veronese about rational normal curves. More precisely, given a collection of linear spaces in $\PP^n$ we study the existence of rational normal curves intersecting each…
Smooth planar vector fields containing two hyperbolic saddles may possess contours formed by heteroclinic connections between these saddles. We present an overview of the bifurcations of these contours based on papers by J.W. Reyn and A.V.…
We discuss the discrete spectrum of the Hamiltonian describing a two-dimensional quantum particle interacting with an infinite family of point interactions. We suppose that the latter are arranged into a star-shaped graph with N arms and a…
Let A be a subspace arrangement with a geometric lattice such that codim(x) > 1 for every x in A. Using rational homotopy theory, we prove that the complement M(A) is rationally elliptic if and only if the sum of the orthogonal subspaces is…
A brief pedagogical survey of the star product is provided, through Groenewold's original construction based on the Weyl correspondence. It is then illustrated how simple Landau orbits in a constant magnetic field, through their Dirac…
We study a generalization of the standard holographic p-wave superconductor featuring two interacting vector order parameters. Basing our argument on the symmetry and linear response properties of the model, we propose it as a holographic…
The skewer of a pair of skew lines in space is their common perpendicular. To configuration theorems of plane projective geometry involving points and lines (such as Pappus or Desargues) there correspond configuration theorems in space:…
We study smooth complex projective polarized varieties $(X,H)$ of dimension $ n \ge 2$ which admit a dominating family $V$ of rational curves of $H$-degree $3$, such that two general points of $X$ may be joined by a curve parametrized by…
The parameter space of $n$ ordered points in projective $d$-space that lie on a rational normal curve admits a natural compactification by taking the Zariski closure in $(\mathbb{P}^d)^n$. The resulting variety was used to study the…
Let $F$ be a homogeneous polynomial in $S = \mathbb{C}[x_0,...,x_n]$. Our goal is to understand a particular polynomial decomposition of $F$; geometrically, we wish to determine when the hypersurface defined by $F$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$…
Many physical systems involve two types of orientational order, which are coupled together. For example, ferroelectric nematic liquid crystals have coupled polar and nematic order, and tilted hexatic phases have coupled polar and hexatic…
A toric hyperplane is the preimage of a point $x \in S^1$ of a continuous surjective group homomorphism $\theta: \mathbb{T}^n \to S^1$. A finite hyperplane arrangement is a finite collection of such hyperplanes. In this paper, we study the…
In a recent paper arXiv:1602.02300v2, Cook II, Harbourne, Migliore and Nagel related the splitting type of a line arrangement in the projective plane to the number of conditions imposed by a general fat point of multiplicity $j$ to the…

We study combinatorial configurations with the associated point and line graphs being strongly regular. Examples not belonging to known classes such as partial geometries and their generalizations or elliptic semiplanes are constructed.…
It is well known that Cayley's ruled cubic surface carries a three-parameter family of twisted cubics sharing a common point, with the same tangent and the same osculating plane. We report on various results and open problems with respect…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a separable complex Hilbert space. A conjugate-linear map $C:\mathcal{H}\to \mathcal{H}$ is called a conjugation if it is an involutive isometry. In this paper, we focus on the following interpolation problems: Let…
For a real affine hyperplane arrangement, we define an integer intersection matrix with a natural $q$-deformation related to the intersections of bounded chambers of the arrangement. By connecting the integer matrix to a bilinear form of…
