In this paper, we provide a general framework for counting geometric structures in pseudo-random graphs. As applications, our theorems recover and improve several results on the finite field analog of questions originally raised in the…
We analyze the structure of the periodic trajectories of the K-system generator of pseudorandom numbers on rational sublattice which coincides with the Galois field. The period of the trajectories increases as a function of lattice size and…
Almost paracontact almost paracomplex Riemannian manifolds of the lowest dimension 3 are considered. Such structures are constructed on a family of Lie groups and the obtained manifolds are studied. Curvature properties of these manifolds…
After recalling the notion of Lie algebroid, we construct these structures associated with contact forms or systems. We are then interested in particular classes of Lie Rinehart algebras.
We survey recent work on the geometry and dynamics of transverse subgroups of semi-simple Lie groups.
We exploit a natural correspondence between holomorphic $(2,3,5)$-distributions and nondegenerate lines on holomorphic contact manifolds of dimension $5$ to present a new perspective in the study of symmetries of $(2,3,5)$-distributions.…
We introduce a notion of coisotropics on 1-shifted symplectic Lie groupoids (i.e. quasi-symplectic groupoids) using twisted Dirac structures and show that it satisfies properties analogous to the corresponding derived-algebraic notion in…
Recently, an attractive model of GUT breaking has been proposed in which a 5 dimensional supersymmetric SU(5) gauge theory on an S^1/(Z_2\times Z_2') orbifold is broken down to the 4d MSSM by SU(5)-violating boundary conditions. Motivated…
Weak almost contact manifolds, i.e., the linear complex structure on the contact distribution is approximated by a nonsingular skew-symmetric tensor, defined by the author and R. Wolak (2022), allowed a new look at the theory of contact…
We develop a mathematical concept towards gauge field theories based upon a Hilbert space endowed with a representation of a skew-adjoint Lie algebra and an action of a generalized Dirac operator. This concept shares common features with…
We consider 5-manifolds with a contact form arising from a hypo structure, which we call \emph{hypo-contact}. We provide conditions which imply that there exists such a structure on an oriented hypersurface of a 6-manifold with a half-flat…
Since the celebrated work by Cartan, distributions with \nobreak{small} growth vector $(2,3,5)$ have been studied extensively. In the holomorphic setting, there is a natural correspondence between holomorphic $(2,3,5)$-distributions and…
In this paper, we explore some interesting applications of the matrix tree theorem. In particular, we present a combinatorial interpretation of a distribution of $(n-1)^{n-1}$, in the context of uprooted spanning trees of the complete graph…
We give numerous examples of almost Lie algebroids arising as Dirac structures in pre-Courant algebroids, e.g. from twisted Poisson structures, as well as from twisted actions of a Lie algebra. We moreover define a cohomology for them,…
We analyze higher gauge theories in various dimensions using a supergeometric method based on a differential graded symplectic manifold, called a QP-manifold, which is closely related to the BRST-BV formalism in gauge theories. Extensions…
This paper is a continuation of our previous work, where eleven basic classes of almost paracontact metric manifolds with respect to the covariant derivative of the structure tensor field were obtained. First we decompose one of the eleven…
We investigate how exchange-graph techniques can be used to study the topology of strata of meromorphic quadratic differentials. The exchange graph provides natural generators for the fundamental group. By extending the combinatorics of…
We show a duality which arises from distributions of Cartan type, having growth (2, 3, 5), from the view point of geometric control theory. In fact we consider the space of singular (or abnormal) paths on a given five dimensional space…
We use production matrices to count several classes of geometric graphs. We present novel production matrices for non-crossing partitions, connected geometric graphs, and k-angulations, which provide another way of counting the number of…
We survey the use of dynamics of $SL(2, \R)$-actions to understand gap distributions for various sequences of subsets of $[0, 1)$, particularly those arising from special trajectories of various two-dimensional dynamical systems. We state…
