We define a graded multiplication on the vector space of essential paths on a graph $G$ (a tree) and show that it is associative. In most interesting applications, this tree is an ADE Dynkin diagram. The vector space of length preserving…
We show that Euclidean geometry in suitably high dimension can be expressed as a theory of orthogonality of subspaces with fixed dimensions and fixed dimension of their meet.
The formal structure of the early Einstein's Special Relativity follows the axiomatic deductive method of Euclidean geometry. In this paper we show the deep-rooted relation between Euclidean and space-time geometries that are both linked to…
We investigate graph-directed iterated function systems in mixed Euclidean and p-adic spaces. Hausdorff measure and Hausdorff dimension in such spaces are defined, and an upper bound for the Hausdorff dimension is obtained. The relation…
We apply the theory of branches in Bruhat-Tits trees, developed in previous works by the second author and others, to the study of two dimensional representations of finite groups over the ring of integers of a number field. We provide a…
We study the problem of recovering a globally consistent Euclidean embedding of data, given only a local distance graph and propose a method that optimally represents these distances. The method operates solely on a neighborhood graph…
This work is intended to investigate the geometry of anti-de Sitter spacetime (AdS), from the point of view of the Laplacian Comparison Theorem (LCT), and to give another description of the hyperbolical embedding standard formalism of the…
The dS/CFT correspondence differs from its AdS/CFT counterpart in some ways, yet is strikingly similar to it in many others. For example, both involve CFTs defined on connected spaces (despite the fact that the conformal boundary of…
Metric embeddings are central to metric theory and its applications. Here we consider embeddings of a different sort: maps from a set to subsets of a metric space so that distances between points are approximated by minimal distances…
We establish upper bounds for the size of two-distance sets in Euclidean space and spherical two-distance sets. The main recipe for obtaining upper bounds is the spectral method. We construct Seidel matrices to encode the distance relations…
Weyl's tile argument purports to show that there are no natural distance functions in atomistic space that approximate Euclidean geometry. I advance a response to this argument that relies on a new account of distance in atomistic space,…
Witten diagrams provide a perturbative framework for calculations in Anti-de-Sitter space, and play an essential role in a variety of holographic computations. In the case of this study in AdS$_2$, the one-dimensional boundary allows for a…
Using Connes distance formula in noncommutative geometry, it is possible to retrieve the Euclidean distance from the canonical commutation relations of quantum mechanics. In this note, we study modifications of the distance induced by a…
We show how non-compact (quantum 2d AdS) space-time emerges for specific ratios of the square of the boundary cosmological constant to the cosmological constant in 2d Euclidean quantum gravity.
This paper investigates the relationship between a system of differential equations and the underlying geometry associated with it. The geometry of a surface determines shortest paths, or geodesics connecting nearby points, which are…
The AdS/CFT correspondence is an exact duality between string theory in anti-de Sitter space and conformal field theories on its boundary. Inspired in this correspondence some relations between strings and non conformal field theories have…
Using only the principle of relativity and Euclidean geometry we show in this pedagogical article that the square of proper time or length in a two-dimensional spacetime diagram is proportional to the Euclidean area of the corresponding…
We study the inverse problem of recovering a tree graph together with the weights on its edges (equivalently a metric tree) from the knowledge of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann matrix associated with the Laplacian. We prove an explicit formula…
Einstein-Cartan theory is formulated in (1+2)-dimensions using the algebra of exterior differential forms. A Dirac spinor is coupled to gravity and the field equations are obtained by a variational principle. The space-time torsion is found…
We study the following range searching problem in high-dimensional Euclidean spaces: given a finite set $P\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, where each $p\in P$ is assigned a weight $w_p$, and radius $r>0$, we need to preprocess $P$ into a data…
