Transmitting structured light robustly through complex random media is crucial in many applications, from sensing to communication. Unfortunately, the spatial structure of light is distorted in such media due to refractive index…
This text is an exposition of non-Archimedean curves and Schottky uniformization from the point of view of Berkovich geometry. It consists of two parts, the first one of an introductory nature, and the second one more advanced. The first…
We describe the local and global structure of the fixed locus for the action of a rational function on the Berkovich projective line over a complete nontrivially-valued algebraically closed nonarchimedean field. This includes a bound for…
Let $V$ be a quasi-projective algebraic variety over a non-archimedean valued field. We introduce topological methods into the model theory of valued fields, define an analogue $\hat {V}$ of the Berkovich analytification $V^{an}$ of $V$,…
Let $S$ be a finite dimensional noetherian scheme. For any proper morphism between smooth $S$-schemes, we prove a Riemann-Roch formula relating higher algebraic $K$-theory and motivic cohomology, thus with no projective hypothesis neither…
Research on topological phases of matter is a core field in modern condensed matter physics. Free fermion systems, such as topological insulators and superconductors, have been studied using the "Tenfold Way" and K-theory. Building on…
In this work, we solve the problem of finding non-intersecting paths between points on a plane with a new approach by borrowing ideas from geometric topology, in particular, from the study of polygonal schema in mathematics. We use a…
For a cubic rational function with coefficients in a non-archimedean field $K$ whose residue characteristic is $0$ or greater than $3$, there are $2$ possibilities for the shape of its Berkovich ramification locus, considered as an…
Point sets of number-theoretic origin, such as the visible lattice points or the $k$-th power free integers, have interesting geometric and spectral properties and give rise to topological dynamical systems that belong to a large class of…
The embedding of a given point set with non-crystallographic symmetry into higher-dimensional space is reviewed, with special emphasis on the Minkowski embedding known from number theory. This is a natural choice that does not require an a…
The main objective of this paper is to show that the notion of type which was developed within the frames of logic and model theory has deep ties with geometric properties of algebras. These ties go back and forth from universal algebraic…
Let X be a projective hypersurface in P_k^n of degree d <= n. In this paper we study the relation between the class [X] in K_0(Var_k) and the existence of k-rational points. Using elementary geometric methods we show, for some particular X,…
One of the themes in algebraic geometry is the study of the relation between the ``topology'' of a smooth projective variety and a (``general'') hyperplane section. Recent results of Nori produce cohomological evidence for a conjecture that…
Let $k$ be a complete, nontrivially valued non-archimedean field. Given a finite morphism of quasi-smooth $k$-analytic curves that admit finite triangulations, we provide upper bounds for the number of connected components of the…
In non-archimedean setting, we establish a Lehto--Virtanen-type theorem for a morphism from the punctured Berkovich closed unit disk $\overline{\mathsf{D}}\setminus\{0\}$ in the Berkovich affine line to the Berkovich projective line…
Given a nonconstant holomorphic map f: X -> Y between compact Riemann surfaces, one of the first objects we learn to construct is its ramification divisor R_f, which describes the locus at which f fails to be locally injective. The divisor…
The bulk-boundary correspondence predicts the existence of boundary modes localized at the edges of topologically nontrivial systems. The wavefunctions of hermitian boundary modes can be obtained as the eigenmodes of a modified Jackiw-Rebbi…
Given an ample line bundle $L$ on a geometrically reduced projective scheme defined over an arbitrary non-Archimedean field, we establish a differentiability property for the relative volume of two continuous metrics on the Berkovich…
A review is given on the foundations and applications of non-Hermitian classical and quantum physics. First, key theorems and central concepts in non-Hermitian linear algebra, including Jordan normal form, biorthogonality, exceptional…
We investigate Bruhat-Tits buildings and their compactifications by means of Berkovich analytic geometry over complete non-Archimedean fields. For every reductive group G over a suitable non-Archimedean field k we define a map from the…
