The article is a report on the biography and achievements of Ernest Borisovich Vinberg, an outstanding Russian mathematician, who passed away in Moscow on May 12, 2020. We discuss his contributions to various areas of mathematics such as…
A possible influence of Klein's Erlangen program on physical theories is investigated. While some connections are found, it is concluded that Lie's theory of transformation groups and Lie algebras have had a much larger impact. In this…
This article is a contribution to a Festschrift for S. Helgason. After a biographical sketch, we survey some of his research on several topics in geometric and harmonic analysis during his long and influential career. While not an…
An infinite 3-parametric family of superintegrable and exactly-solvable quantum models on a plane, admitting separation of variables in polar coordinates, marked by integer index $k$ was introduced in Journ Phys A 42 (2009) 242001 and was…
The influence of Alfred Tarski on computer science was indirect but significant in a number of directions and was in certain respects fundamental. Here surveyed is the work of Tarski on the decision procedure for algebra and geometry, the…
A large variety of periodic tables of the chemical elements have been proposed. It was Mendeleev who proposed a periodic table based on the extensive periodic law and predicted a number of unknown elements at that time. The periodic table…
Erwin Louis Hahn was one of the most innovative and influential physical scientists in recent history, impacting generations of scientists through his work in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), optics, and the intersection of these two…
We give a proof and extension of two formulas of Frobenius and Stickelberger of Differential Calculus that they used in a fundamental paper concerning elliptic functions theory. Our main ingredient is the introduction of a bilinear form…
This paper deals with the notion of Gr\"obner $\delta$-base for some rings of linear differential operators by adapting the works of W. Trinks, A. Assi, M. Insa and F. Pauer. We compare this notion with the one of Gr\"obner base for such…
Let $\mathcal{H}=-\Delta_{\mathbb{H}}+V$ be the Schr\"odinger operator on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^n$, where $\Delta_{\mathbb{H}}$ is the full laplacian on $\mathbb{H}^n$ and $V$ is a positive smooth potential, bounded below and…
There is a huge number of excellent and comprehensive textbooks on quantum mechanics. They mainly differ for the approach, more or less oriented to the formalism rather than to the phenomenology, as well as for the topics covered. These…
We identify the ring of odd symmetric functions introduced by Ellis and Khovanov as the space of skew polynomials fixed by a natural action of the Hecke algebra at q=-1. This allows us to define graded modules over the Hecke algebra at q=-1…
This paper aims to provide physics teachers with tools to help deepen the understanding of the laws of electromagnetism. The fundamental contributions of our proposal are: a) to use quotes from mythical characters in the history of science…
This text is a revised version of the authors Habilitationsschrift which was submitted to the University of Augsburg, 1993. Fuchs type differential operators are used to model the analysis on manifolds with cone--like singularities, or more…
The research monograph gives the first systematic exposition of the elliptic (scalar and matrix) operators theory and elliptic boundary-value problems in the scales of Hilbert spaces of H\"ormander of the functions/distributions of…
We study the index theory of a class of perturbed Dirac operators on non-compact manifolds of the form $\mathsf{D}+\mathrm{i}\mathsf{c}(X)$, where $\mathsf{c}(X)$ is a Clifford multiplication operator by an orbital vector field with respect…
The concept of citation indexing has become deeply involved in many parts of research itself and the broad environment in which research plays an integral role, ranging from research evaluation, numerous indicators, to an increasingly wider…
Professor M. C. Polivanov and I met only a few times, during my infrequent visits to the-then Soviet Union in the 1970's and 1980's. His hospitality at the Moscow Steclov Institute made the trips a pleasure, while the scientific environment…
We present the solution of a longstanding internal problem of noncommutative geometry, namely the computation of the index of a transversally elliptic operator on an arbitrary foliation. The new and crucial ingredient is a certain Hopf…
In this paper we propose a categorical theory of intensionality. We first revisit the notion of intensionality, and discuss we its relevance to logic and computer science. It turns out that 1-category theory is not the most appropriate…
