We introduce an alternative formalization of curved spaces in which the concept of a pointwise affine space, as defined here, replaces that of a manifold. New or modified definitions of familiar notions from differential geometry such as…
In this survey paper, we exhaustively explore the terminating basic hypergeometric representations of the Askey-Wilson polynomials and the corresponding terminating basic hypergeometric transformations that these polynomials satisfy. From…
We survey the concept of multiplicativity from its initial appearance in the theory of Poisson-Lie groups to the far-reaching generalizations, for multivectors and differential forms in the geometry and the generalized geometry of Lie…
A compact classification of the projective lines defined over (commutative) rings (with unity) of all orders up to thirty-one is given. There are altogether sixty-five different types of them. For each type we introduce the total number of…
We consider the problem of finding orthogonal projections $P$ of a rank $r$ that give rise to representations of the Hecke algebra $H_N(q)$ in which the generators of the algebra act locally on the $N$-th tensor power of the space ${\mathbb…
A contact projective structure is a contact path geometry the paths of which are among the geodesics of some affine connection. In the manner of T.Y. Thomas there is associated to each contact projective structure an ambient affine…
We define a generalization of the fixed point set, called the bounded fixed set, for a group acting by isometries on a metric space. An analogue of the P. A. Smith theorem is proved for metric spaces of finite asymptotic dimension, which…
The theory of generalized inverses of matrices and operators is closely connected with projections, i.e., idempotent (bounded) linear transformations. We show that a similar situation occurs in any associative ring $\mathcal{R}$ with a unit…
The purpose of this paper is to present projective geometry in a synthetic, visual and intuitive style through the central notion of harmonicity which leads to harmonic curves. This presentation includes new results, unpublished proofs of…
Inspired by the geometric bracket for the generalized covariant Hamilton system, we abstractly define a generalized geometric commutator $$\left[ a,b \right]={{\left[ a,b \right]}_{cr}}+G\left(s,a,b \right)$$ formally equipped with…
One version of the classical Lefschetz hyperplane theorem states that for $U \subset \mathbb P^n$ a smooth quasi-projective variety of dimension at least $2$, and $H \cap U$ a general hyperplane section, the resulting map on \'etale…
The concept of generalized path algebras was introduced in (Coelho, Liu, 2000). Roughly speaking, these algebras are constructed in a similar way to that of the path algebras over a quiver, the difference being that we assign an algebra to…
Transformations of transformations, also called higher-order transformations, is a natural concept in information processing, which has recently attracted significant interest in the study of quantum causal relations. In this work, a…
Around 1992 A. Zhedanov introduced the Askey-Wilson algebra AW(3). Recently we introduced a central extension $\Delta$ of AW(3) called the universal Askey-Wilson algebra. In this paper we discuss a connection between $\Delta$ and the…
Space-Time in general relativity is a dynamical entity because it is subject to the Einstein field equations. The space-time metric provides different geometrical structures: conformal, volume, projective and linear connection. A deep…
We introduce total preprojective algebras $\Psi$ of path algebras of Dynkin quivers $kQ$, and prove that they are isomorphic to $2$-Auslander algebras of preprojective algebras $\Pi$ of $kQ$. In particular, $\Psi$ has global dimension $3$…
In this paper, we introduce some known map projections from a model of the Earth to a flat sheet of paper or map and derive the plotting equations for these projections. The first fundamental form and the Gaussian fundamental quantities are…
In this note, we generalize the Proj-construction from usual schemes to blue schemes. This yields the definition of projective space and projective varieties over a blueprint. In particular, it is possible to descend closed subvarieties of…
In three-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the scalar product produces a number associated to two vectors, while the vector product computes a vector perpendicular to them. These are key tools of physics, chemistry and engineering and…
A rigorous mathematical theory of dimensional analysis, systematically accounting for the use of physical quantities in science and engineering, perhaps surprisingly, was not developed until relatively recently. We claim that this has…
