A conjecture of Fuglede states that a bounded measurable set D, of measure 1, can tile space by translations if and only if the Hilbert space L^2(D) has an orthonormal basis consisting of exponentials exp(i 2 pi lambda x). If D has the…

This paper is dedicated to a lattice analog to the classical ``sum of interior angles of a polygon theorem''. In 2008, the first formula expressing conditions on the geometric continued fractions for lattice angles of triangles was derived,…

We provide a framework for which one can approach showing the integer decomposition property for symmetric polytopes. We utilize this framework to prove a special case which we refer to as $2$-partition maximal polytopes in the case where…

There are two-dimensional Toda field equations corresponding to each (finite or affine) Lie algebra. The question addressed in this note is whether there exist integrable discrete versions of these. It is shown that for certain algebras…

For d-dimensional irrational ellipsoids E with d >= 9 we show that the number of lattice points in rE is approximated by the volume of rE, as r tends to infinity, up to an error of order o(r^{d-2}). The estimate refines an earlier authors'…

We study the problem of "phantom" folding of the two-dimensional square lattice, in which the edges and diagonals of each face can be folded. The non-vanishing thermodynamic folding entropy per face $s \simeq .2299(1)$ is estimated both…

We investigate the Pick problem for the polydisk and unit ball using dual algebra techniques. Some factorization results for Bergman spaces are used to describe a Pick theorem for any bounded region in $\mathbb{C}^d$.

The lattice size $\operatorname{ls_\Delta}(P)$ of a lattice polytope $P$ is a geometric invariant, which was formally introduced in relation to the problem of bounding the total degree and the bi-degree of the defining equation of an…

We extend White's classification of empty tetrahedra to the complete classification of lattice $3$-polytopes with five lattice points, showing that, apart from infinitely many of width one, there are exactly nine equivalence classes of them…

V. Arnold's problem 1987-14 asks whether there exist smooth hypersurfaces in $R^N$ (other than the conics in odd-dimensional spaces) for which the volume of the segment cut by any hyperplane from the body bounded by such a hypersurface is…

We prove an asymptotic formula for the number of integral points of bounded log anticanonical height on a singular quartic del Pezzo surface over arbitrary number fields, with respect to the largest admissible boundary divisor. The…

We consider the moduli space of bordered Riemann surfaces with boundary and marked points. Such spaces appear in open-closed string theory, particularly with respect to holomorphic curves with Lagrangian submanifolds. We consider a…

Will the cosmological multiverse, when described mathematically, have easily stated properties that are impossible to prove or disprove using mathematical physics? We explore this question by constructing lattice multiverses which exhibit…

Given a set $S \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$, a hollow polytope has vertices in $S$ but contains no other point of $S$ in its interior. We prove upper and lower bounds on the maximum number of vertices of hollow polytopes whose facets are…

In this paper, we use a simple discrete dynamical model to study integer partitions and their lattice. The set of reachable configurations of the model, with the order induced by the transition rule defined on it, is the lattice of all…

Motivated by long-standing conjectures on the discretization of classical inequalities in the Geometry of Numbers, we investigate a new set of parameters, which we call \emph{packing minima}, associated to a convex body $K$ and a lattice…

We give a Lie-theoretic explanation for the convex polytope which parametrizes the globally smooth solutions of the topological-antitopological fusion equations of Toda type (tt$^*$-Toda equations) which were introduced by Cecotti and Vafa.…

We give a quantum-inspired $O(n^4)$ algorithm computing the Tutte polynomial of a lattice path matroid, where $n$ is the size of the ground set of the matroid. Furthermore, this can be improved to $O(n^2)$ arithmetic operations if we…
