Let $\Gamma$ be an embeddable non-degenerate polar space of finite rank $n \geq 2$. Assuming that $\Gamma$ admits the universal embedding (which is true for all embeddable polar spaces except grids of order at least $5$ and certain…
Let $\Pi$ be a polar space of rank $n$ and let ${\mathcal G}_{k}(\Pi)$, $k\in \{0,\dots,n-1\}$ be the polar Grassmannian formed by $k$-dimensional singular subspaces of $\Pi$. The corresponding Grassmann graph will be denoted by…
In this paper, we study association schemes on the anisotropic points of classical polar spaces. Our main result concerns non-degenerate elliptic and hyperbolic quadrics in PG$(n,q)$ with $q$ odd. We define relations on the anisotropic…
In this article, new anisotropic grand Lorentz spaces are defined and their properties are studied. These spaces are a new structure that provides a unified parameter for the study of various functional spaces. The consideration of grand…
We establish that every embedding of a Grassmann graph in a polar Grassmann graph can be reduced to an embedding in a Grassmann graph or to an embedding in the collinearity graph of a polar space. Also, we consider $3$-embeddings, i.e.…
Nondegenerate quadratic forms over $p$-adic fields are classified by their dimension, discriminant, and Hasse invariant. This paper uses these three invariants, elementary facts about $p$-adic fields and the theory of quadratic forms to…
We describe isometric embeddings of polar Grassmann graphs formed by non-maximal singular subspaces. In almost all cases, they are induced by collinearity preserving injections of polar spaces. As a simple consequence of this result, we get…
Some classical polar spaces admit polar spaces of the same rank as embedded polar spaces (often arisen as the intersection of the polar space with a non-tangent hyperplane). In this article we look at sets of generators that behave…
A finite classical polar space of rank $n$ consists of the totally isotropic subspaces of a finite vector space over $\mathbb{F}_q$ equipped with a nondegenerate form such that $n$ is the maximal dimension of such a subspace. A…
Polar spaces over finite fields are fundamental in combinatorial geometry. The concept of polar space was firstly introduced by F. Veldkamp who gave a system of 10 axioms in the spirit of Universal Algebra. Later the axioms were simplified…
Given an $N$-dimensional vector space $V$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ and a trace-valued $(\sigma,\varepsilon)$-sesquilinear form $f:V\times V\rightarrow \mathbb{F}$, with $\varepsilon = \pm 1$ and $\sigma^2 = \mathrm{id}_{\mathbb{F}}$, let…
In this paper we compute the dimension of the Grassmann embeddings of the polar Grassmannians associated to a possibly degenerate Hermitian, alternating or quadratic form with possibly non-maximal Witt index. Moreover, in the characteristic…
In this paper, we establish a scale invariant Harnack inequality for some inhomogeneous parabolic equations in a suitable intrinsic geometry dictated by the nonlinearity. The class of equations that we consider correspond to the parabolic…
A $k$-polar Grassmannian is the geometry having as pointset the set of all $k$-dimensional subspaces of a vector space $V$ which are totally isotropic for a given non-degenerate bilinear form $\mu$ defined on $V.$ Hence it can be regarded…
In this paper, we extend the concept of generalized entropy to uniform spaces, allowing computations beyond metrizable settings. We apply this to parabolic dynamics - systems with a unique fixed point uniformly attracting all compact…
This paper deals with different characterizations of sets of nonlinear parabolic capacity zero, with respect to the parabolic p-Laplace equation. Specifically we prove that certain interior polar sets can be characterized by sets of zero…
In this paper we study elliptic and parabolic boundary value problems with inhomogeneous boundary conditions in weighted function spaces of Sobolev, Bessel potential, Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin type. As one of the main results, we solve the…
We introduce two explicit examples of polynomials orthogonal on the unit circle. Moments and the reflection coefficients are expressed in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions. We find explicit expression for these polynomials in terms of a…
We recall the definition of classical polar varieties, as well as those of affine and projective reciprocal polar varieties. The latter are defined with respect to a non-degenerate quadric, which gives us a notion of orthogonality. In…
In this paper we introduce generalized pseudo-quadratic forms and develope some theory for them. Recall that the codomain of a $(\sigma,\varepsilon)$-quadratic form is the group $\overline{K} := K/K_{\sigma,\varepsilon}$, where $K$ is the…
