We use results of Matzeu and Nikcevic to decompose the space of affine Kaehler curvature tensors as a direct sum of irreducible modules in the complex setting
It is shown that $N$ points on a real algebraic curve of degree $n$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ always determine $\gtrsim_{n,d}N^{1+\frac{1}{4}}$ distinct distances, unless the curve is a straight line or the closed geodesic of a flat torus. In the…
In 2008, the author proposed a version of duality theory for (not necessarily, Abelian) complex Lie groups, based on the idea of using the Arens-Michael envelope of topological algebra and having an advantage over existing theories in that…
We introduce an equivalence relation on the space $W^{1,1}(\Omega;{\mathbb S}^1)$ which classifies maps according to their "topological singularities". We establish sharp bounds for the distances (in the usual sense and in the Hausdorff…
We establish upper bounds for the size of two-distance sets in Euclidean space and spherical two-distance sets. The main recipe for obtaining upper bounds is the spectral method. We construct Seidel matrices to encode the distance relations…
We construct geometric examples of N-differential graded algebras such as the algebra of differential forms of depth $N$ on an affine manifold, and $N$-flat covariant derivatives.
We define and study several new interleaving distances for persistent cohomology which take into account the algebraic structures of the cohomology of a space, for instance the cup product or the action of the Steenrod algebra. In…
For two t-structures $D_{1}=(D_{1}^{\leqslant 0},D_{1}^{\geqslant 1})$ and $D_{2}=(D_{2}^{\leqslant 0},D_{2}^{\geqslant 1})$ with $D_{1}^{\leqslant 0} \subseteq D_{2}^{\leqslant 0}$ on a triangulated category $\mathcal{D}$, we give a…
We compute the basic parameters (dimension, length, minimum distance) of affine evaluation codes defined on a cartesian product of finite sets. Given a sequence of positive integers, we construct an evaluation code, over a degenerate torus,…
We give a criterion of factoriality of a suspension. This allows to construct many examples of flexible affine factorial varieties. In particular, we find a homogeneous affine factorial 3-fold that is not a homogeneous space of an algebraic…
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…
A distance between von Neumann algebras is introduced, depending on a further norm inducing the $w^*$-topology on bounded sets. Such notion is related both with the Gromov-Hausdorff distance for quantum metric spaces of Rieffel and with the…
We prove the elementary but surprising fact that the Hofer distance between two closed subsets of a symplectic manifold can be expressed in terms of the restrictions of Hamiltonians to one of the subsets; this helps explain certain…
It has been conjectured that a complete set of mutually unbiased bases in a space of dimension d exists if and only if there is an affine plane of order d. We introduce affine constellations and compare their existence properties with those…
The time-energy uncertainty relation of Anandan-Aharonov is generalized to a relation involving a set of quantum state vectors. This is achieved by obtaining an explicit formula for the distance between two finitely separated points in the…
Any discrete approach to quantum gravity must provide some prescription as to how to deduce continuum properties from the discrete substructure. In the causal set approach it is straightforward to deduce timelike distances, but surprisingly…
We prove a series of results on the size of distance sets corresponding to sets in the Euclidean space. These distances are generated by bounded convex sets and the results depend explicitly on the geometry of these sets. We also use a…
Here we define a Caputo like discrete fractional difference and we compare it to the earlier defined Riemann-Liouville fractional discrete analog. Then we produce discrete fractional Taylor formulae for the first time, and we estimate their…
The paper presents a discrete variation of the Frechet distance between closed curves, which can be seen as an approximation of the continuous measure. A rather straightforward approach to compute the discrete Frechet distance between two…
In the literature, there have been several methods and definitions for working out if two theories are "equivalent" (essentially the same) or not. In this article, we do something subtler. We provide means to measure distances (and explore…
