In this note I respond to Vilenkin's claim that there must have been a beginning.
I use an instrumental approach to investigate some commonly made claims about interpretations of quantum mechanics, especially those that pertain questions of locality. The here presented investigation builds on a recently proposed taxonomy…
We survey and analyze different ways in which bornologies, coarse structures and uniformities on a group agree with the group operations.
Confusion and disagreement around the notion of time is due to the fact that we often fail to recognize that we call 'time' a variety of distinct notions, only partially related to one another. Many apparently obvious properties of time are…
I offer a brief summary, with commentary, of theoretical contributions to Moriond QCD 2008.
Some question about representations of $p$-adic groups are discussed.
After reviewing the basics, topics in this talk include an attempted survey of theoretical contributions to this workshop, some extra specific comments on quark models, and a summary.
This is the first in a series of articles devoted to providing a foundation for a theory of flocks of arbitrary cones in PG(3,q). The desire to have such a theory stems from a need to better understand the very significant and applicable…
Many kinds of categorical structure require the existence of finite limits, of colimits of some specified type, and of "exactness" conditions between the finite limits and the specified colimits. Some examples are the notions of regular, or…
A simple proof of the higher Capelli identities is given.
A covariant functor on the elliptic curves with complex multiplication is constructed. The functor takes values in the noncommutative tori with real multiplication. A conjecture on the rank of an elliptic curve is formulated.
Reflections on the Concept of Data and its Implications for Science and Society
The toric surfaces for octonions and related objects are discussed.
B\"{u}chi and Owen studied algebraic structures called hoops. Hoops provide a natural algebraic semantics for a class of substructural logics that we think of as intuitionistic analogues of the widely studied {\L}ukasiewicz logics. Ben…
We make some remarks about bubbling on, not necessarily proper, champs de Deligne-Mumford, i.e. compactification of the space of mappings from a given (wholly scheme like) curve, so, in particular, on quasi-projective projective varieties.…
The article provides a counterexample to a conjecture by Blocki-Zwonek.
We state and prove a realization of King's Conjecture for a category glued from the derived categories of all of the toric varieties arising from a given Cox ring. Our perspective extends ideas of Beilinson and Bondal to all semiprojective…
We show the close connection between appearingly different Galois theories for comodules introduced recently in [J. G\'omez-Torrecillas and J. Vercruysse, Comatrix corings and Galois Comodules over firm rings, arXiv:math.RA/0509106.] and…
A fundamental result in 4-manifold topology asserts that any two exotic smooth structures on a simply-connected, closed 4-manifold differ by a cork twist: the operation of removing a compact, contractible, codimension-zero submanifold and…
A scientific discussion was recently raised on the interpretation of chemical bonding in the high pressure structure of Boron. Some remarks are given in this short commentary
