In 1977 L\"uscher found a class of SO(4)-symmetric SU(2) Yang-Mills solutions in Minkowski space, which have been rederived 40 years later by employing the isometry $S^3\cong\mathrm{SU}(2)$ and conformally mapping SU(2)-equivariant…

Angular Minkowski $p$-distance is a dissimilarity measure that is obtained by replacing Euclidean distance in the definition of cosine dissimilarity with other Minkowski $p$-distances. Cosine dissimilarity is frequently used with datasets…

We formulate a series of conjectures relating the geometry of conformal manifolds to the spectrum of local operators in conformal field theories in $d>2$ spacetime dimensions. We focus on conformal manifolds with limiting points at infinite…

For some self-similar sets K in d-dimensional Euclidean space we obtain certain lower bounds for the lower Minkowski dimension of K+E in terms of the lower Minkowski dimension of E.

For every integer $k\geq 2$ and every $R>1$ one can find a dimension $n$ and construct a symmetric convex body $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ with $\text{diam}\,Q_{k-1}(K)\geq R\cdot\text{diam}\,Q_k(K)$, where $Q_k(K)$ denotes the $k$-convex hull…

We study general geometric properties of cone spaces, and we apply them on the Hellinger--Kantorovich space $(\mathcal{M}(X),\mathsf{H\hspace{-0.25em} K}_{\alpha,\beta}).$ We exploit a two-parameter scaling property of the…

We address the problem of deriving the post-Minkowskian approximation, widely used in current gravitational wave literature by investigating a possible deduction out of the recursive N\"other coupling approach, from the Pauli-Fierz spin-2…

Using the standard Cayley transform and elementary tools it is reiterated that the conformal compactification of the Minkowski space involves not only the "cone at infinity" but also the 2-sphere that is at the base of this cone. We…

We study the second Huber theorem in dimensions 2 and 4. In dimension 2, we prove a new version assuming that the Gauss curvature lies in a negative Sobolev space using Coulomb frames. In dimension $4$, given a metric having a pointwise…

We use the intrinsic area to define a distance on the space of homothety classes of convex bodies in the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space, which makes it isometric to a convex subset of the infinite dimensional hyperbolic space. The ambient…

Many Gibbs measures with mean field interactions are known to be chaotic, in the sense that any collection of $k$ particles in the $n$-particle system are asymptotically independent, as $n\to\infty$ with $k$ fixed or perhaps $k=o(n)$. This…

We consider spaces M_7 and M_8 of G_2 holonomy and Spin(7) holonomy in seven and eight dimensions, with a U(1) isometry. For metrics where the length of the associated circle is everywhere finite and non-zero, one can perform a Kaluza-Klein…
