Algorithmic methods for the explicit inversion of the indefinite double covering maps are proposed. These are based on either the Givens decomposition or the polar decomposition of the given matrix in the proper, indefinite orthogonal group…
In 2001, Bhargava proved a composition law for $2 \times 2 \times 2$ integer cubes, which generalized Gauss composition of integral binary quadratic forms. Furthermore, he derived four new composition laws defined on the following spaces:…
The classical theorems relating integral binary quadratic forms and ideal classes of quadratic orders have been of tremendous importance in mathematics, and many authors have given extensions of these theorems to rings other than the…
In Disquisitiones Arithmeticae, Gauss studied binary quadratic forms and introduced a very general version of a composition operator that allows composing even forms of different discriminants and imprimitive forms. Section V of…
We present a framework for accelerating a spectrum of machine learning algorithms that require computation of bilinear inverse forms $u^\top A^{-1}u$, where $A$ is a positive definite matrix and $u$ a given vector. Our framework is built on…
Consider a symmetric matrix $A(v)\in\RR^{n\times n}$ depending on a vector $v\in\RR^n$ and satisfying the property $A(\alpha v)=A(v)$ for any $\alpha\in\RR\backslash{0}$. We will here study the problem of finding $(\lambda,v)\in\RR\times…

Highly oscillatory integrals of composite type arise in electronic engineering and their calculations is a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose two Gaussian quadrature rules for computing such integrals. The first one is…
Bernstein polynomials, long a staple of approximation theory and computational geometry, have also increasingly become of interest in finite element methods. Many fundamental problems in interpolation and approximation give rise to…
We introduce intertwining operators among twisted modules or twisted intertwining operators associated to not-necessarily-commuting automorphisms of a vertex operator algebra. Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra and let $g_{1}$, $g_{2}$…
Let $(G,w)$ be a weighted graph with a weight-function $w: E(G)\to \mathbb R\backslash\{0\}$. A weighted graph $(G,w)$ is invertible to a new weighted graph if its adjacency matrix is invertible. A graph inverse has combinatorial interest…
Recently, a whole class of evergy-preserving integrators has been derived for the numerical solution of Hamiltonian problems. In the mainstream of this research, we have defined a new family of symplectic integrators depending on a real…
We study the compactness of Willmore surfaces without assuming the convergence of the induced complex structures. In particular, we compute the energy loss in the neck in terms of the residue and we prove that the limit of the image of the…
A dual formulation of the S Matrix for N=4 SYM has recently been presented, where all leading singularities of n-particle N^{k-2}MHV amplitudes are given as an integral over the Grassmannian G(k,n), with cyclic symmetry, parity and…
Over 200 years ago, Gauss discovered a composition law on the $SL_2({\mathbb Z})$-equivalence classes of primitive binary quadratic forms. Since then, bijections of classes of binary forms have been found with ideal class groups of…
Gauss' classical reduction theory for indefinite binary quadratic forms over $\mathbb{Z}$ has originally been proven by means of purely algebraic and arithmetic considerations. It was later discovered that this reduction theory is closely…
We prove that the Gauss map of a surface of constant mean curvature embedded in Minkowski space is harmonic. This fact will then be used to study 2+1 gravity for surfaces of genus higher than one. By considering the energy of the Gauss map,…
We consider the problem of embedding a subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$ into a low-dimensional Hamming cube in an almost isometric way. We construct a simple, data-oblivious, and computationally efficient map that achieves this task with high…
We show that for a given set $\Lambda$ of $nk$ distinct real numbers $\lambda_1, \lambda_2, \ldots, \lambda_{nk}$ and $k$ graphs on $n$ nodes, $G_0, G_1,\ldots,G_{k-1}$, there are real symmetric $n\times n$ matrices $A_s$, $s=0,1,\ldots,…
We revisit Gauss composition over a general base scheme, with a focus on orthogonal groups. We show that the Clifford and norm functors provide a discriminant-preserving equivalence of categories between binary quadratic modules and…
