Mumford showed that Schottky subgroups of $PGL(2,K)$ give rise to certain curves, now called Mumford curves, over a non-Archimedean field K. Such curves are foundational to subjects dealing with non-Archimedean varieties, including…

Semialgebraic splines are functions that are piecewise polynomial with respect to a cell decomposition into sets defined by polynomial inequalities. We study bivariate semialgebraic splines, formulating spaces of semialgebraic splines in…

A $T$-Schottky group is a discrete group of M\"obius transformations whose generators identify pairs of, possibly-tangent, Jordan curves on the complex sphere, ${\hat{\IC}}$. If the curves are Euclidean circles then the group is termed…

In this work we study the phase structure of skew symplectic sigma models, which are a certain class of two-dimensional N = (2,2) non-Abelian gauged linear sigma models. At low energies some of them flow to non-linear sigma models with…

We construct new examples of groups with cohomological dimension 2 and geometric dimension 3 with respect to the families of finite subgroups, virtually abelian groups of bounded rank, and the family of virtually poly-cyclic subgroups. Our…

Given a finite Lie incidence geometry which is either a polar space of rank at least $3$ or a strong parapolar space of symplectic rank at least $4$ and diameter at most $4$, or the parapolar space arising from the line Grassmannian of a…

A general method based on the polynomial deformations of the Lie algebra sl(2,R) is proposed in order to exhibit the quasi-exactly solvability of specific Hamiltonians implied by quantum physical models. This method using the…

The `Weyl symmetric functions' studied here naturally generalize classical symmetric (polynomial) functions, and `Weyl bialternants,' sometimes also called Weyl characters, analogize the Schur functions. For this generalization, the…

For a digraph $\Gamma$, if $F$ is the smallest field that contains all roots of the characteristic polynomial of the adjacency matrix of $\Gamma$, then $F$ is called the splitting field of $\Gamma$. The extension degree of $F$ over the…

This paper is about a family of symmetric rational functions that form a one-parameter generalization of the classical Hall-Littlewood polynomials. We introduce two sets of (skew and non-skew) functions that are akin to P and Q…

We introduce a combinatorial method to construct indefinite Ricci-flat metrics on nice nilpotent Lie groups. We prove that every nilpotent Lie group of dimension $\leq6$, every nice nilpotent Lie group of dimension $\leq7$ and every…

We study linear systems cut out by cones of fixed degree on a smooth complex curve $C\subset\mathbb{P}^{3}$. We develop a systematic study of the families of such systems, considering their limits, their infinitesimal behaviour and some…

A positive integer $n$ is a Cayley number if every vertex-transitive graph of order $n$ is a Cayley graph. In 1983, Dragan Maru\v{s}i\v{c} posed the problem of determining the Cayley numbers. In this paper we give an infinite set $S$ of…

We review 28 uniform partitions of 3-space in order to find out which of them have graphs (skeletons) embeddable isometrically (or with scale 2) into some cubic lattice ${\bf Z}_n$. We also consider some relatives of those 28 partitions,…

We study local cohomology of rings of global sections of sheafs on the Alexandrov space of a partially ordered set. We give a criterion for a splitting of the local cohomology groups into summands determined by the cohomology of the poset…

We find $n(n-3)/2$-dimensional regions of the space of kinematic invariants, where all the solutions to the scattering equations (the core of the CHY formulation of amplitudes) for $n$ massless particles are real. On these regions, the…

In this article, motivated by the study of symplectic structures on manifolds with boundary and the systematic study of $b$-symplectic manifolds started in [12], we prove a slice theorem for Lie group actions on $b$-symplectic manifolds.

We introduce the notion of a chopped and sliced cone in combinatorial geometry and prove two structure theorems for the number of integral points in the individual slices of such a cone. We observe that this notion applies to weight…

We study general Delaunay-graphs, which are natural generalizations of Delaunay triangulations to arbitrary families, in particular to pseudo-disks. We prove that for any finite pseudo-disk family and point set, there is a plane drawing of…

In this paper, we show that the r-Stirling numbers of both kinds, the r-Whitney numbers of both kinds, the r-Lah numbers and the r-Whitney-Lah numbers form particular cases of family of polynomials forming a generalization of the partial…
