We define a family of star products and involutions associated with $\kappa$-Minkowski space. Applying corresponding quantization maps we show that these star products restricted to a certain space of Schwartz functions have isomorphic…
In a seminal paper "Volumen und Oberfl\"ache" (1903), Minkowski introduced the basic notion of mixed volumes and the corresponding inequalities that lie at the heart of convex geometry. The fundamental importance of characterizing the…
We consider the family of convex bodies obtained from an origin symmetric convex body $K$ by multiplication with diagonal matrices, by forming Minkowski sums of the transformed sets, and by taking limits in the Hausdorff metric. Support…
We provide a Minkowski sum decomposition of marked chain-order polytopes into building blocks associated to elementary markings and thus give an explicit minimal set of generators of an associated semi-group algebra. We proceed by…
For an integer $m\geq 1$, a combinatorial manifold $\widetilde{M}$ is defined to be a geometrical object $\widetilde{M}$ such that for $\forall p\in\widetilde{M}$, there is a local chart $(U_p,\phi_p)$ enable $\phi_p:U_p\to…
Let $C$ be a pointed closed convex cone in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with vertex at the origin $o$ and having nonempty interior. The set $A\subset C$ is $C$-coconvex if the volume of $A$ is finite and $A^{\bullet}=C\setminus A$ is a closed convex set.…
The orbits space of an irreducible linear representation of a finite group is a variety whose coordinate ring is the ring of invariant polynomials. Boris Dubrovin proved that the orbits space of the standard reflection representation of an…
We define complex Minkowski superspace in 4 dimensions as the big cell inside a complex flag supermanifold. The complex conformal supergroup acts naturally on this super flag, allowing us to interpret it as the conformal compactification of…
From a system consisting of a right non-degenerate ring $R$, a pair of $R$-bimodules $Q$ and $P$ and an $R$-bimodule homomorphism $\psi:P\otimes Q\longrightarrow R$ we construct a $\Z$-graded ring $\mathcal{T}_{(P,Q,\psi)}$ called the…
In Euclidean space, the generalised Minkowski problem asks, for a given finite Radon measure $\mu$ on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^d$, to find a compact convex set $K$ with area measure $\mu$. For convex sets in the Minkowski space invariant…
The Minkowski tensors are valuations on the space of convex bodies in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with values in a space of symmetric tensors, having additional covariance and continuity properties. They are extensions of the intrinsic volumes, and as…
We study the Minkowski length L(P) of a lattice polytope P, which is defined to be the largest number of non-trivial primitive segments whose Minkowski sum lies in P. The Minkowski length represents the largest possible number of factors in…
Let $\Bbbk$ be an algebraically closed field, $Q$ a finite quiver, and denote by $\mathop{\mathrm{rep}}_Q^{\mathbf{d}}$ the affine $\Bbbk$-scheme of representations of $Q$ with a fixed dimension vector ${\mathbf{d}}$. Given a representation…
In this paper we study the Minkowskian product Finsler manifolds. More precisely, we prove that if the Minkowskian product Finsler manifold is Einstein then either the product manifold is Ricci flat or both the quotient manifolds are…
The central focus of this paper is the $L_p$ dual Minkowski problem for $C$-compatible sets, where $C$ is a pointed closed convex cone in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with nonempty interior. Such a problem deals with the characterization of the $(p,…
Employing the algebraic framework of local quantum physics, vacuum states in Minkowski space are distinguished by a property of geometric modular action. This property allows one to construct from any locally generated net of observables…
Kuratowski's closure-complement problem gives rise to a monoid generated by the closure and complement operations. Consideration of this monoid yielded an interesting classification of topological spaces, and subsequent decades saw further…
A product of cochains in a polyhedral complex is constructed. The multiplication algorithm depends on the choice of a parameter. The parameter is a linear functional on the ambient space. Cocycles form a subring of the ring of cochains,…
We show that D=4 Minkowski space is an emergent concept related to a class of operators in extended Hilbert space with no positive-definite scalar product. We start with the idea of position-like and momentum-like operators (Plewa 2019 J.…
We propose an approach to the quantum-mechanical description of relativistic orientable objects. It generalizes Wigner's ideas concerning the treatment of nonrelativistic orientable objects (in particular, a nonrelativistic rotator) with…
