The band gap, a key concept in solid-state physics, is traditionally explained by the Bragg diffraction of electron waves in the periodic potential of a crystal. Although widely accepted, this framework raises fundamental issues in…

Traces in symmetric monoidal categories are well-known and have many applications; for instance, their functoriality directly implies the Lefschetz fixed point theorem. However, for some applications, such as generalizations of the…

Equipping a non-equivariant topological E_\infty operad with the trivial G-action gives an operad in G-spaces. The algebra structure encoded by this operad in G-spectra is characterised homotopically by having no non-trivial multiplicative…

Band theory provides the foundation for understanding electronic structure in crystalline materials, but its reliance on exact translational symmetry limits its applicability to systems with defects, disorder, incommensurate modulations, or…

The category of (colored) props is an enhancement of the category of colored operads, and thus of the category of small categories. The titular category has nice formal properties: it is bicomplete and is a symmetric monoidal category, with…

Operadic tangent cohomology generalizes the existing cohomology theories of Chevalley--Eilenberg, Hochschild, and Harrison to address the deformation theory of general types of algebras through gadgets known as deformation complexes. The…

Shuffle operads were introduced to forget the symmetric group actions on symmetric operads while preserving all possible operadic compositions. Rewriting methods were then applied to symmetric operads via shuffle operads: in particular, a…

We provide an abstract framework for a Logvinenko-Sereda type theorem, where the classical compactness assumption on the support of the Fourier transform is replaced by the assumption that the functions under consideration belong to a…

This paper introduces the concept of distorted monoidal categories, a generalization of monoidal and braided monoidal categories that supports non-reversible and direction-sensitive tensor structures. Unlike the classical setting, where the…

In this paper we prove the spectral theorem for quaternionic unbounded normal operators using the notion of $S$-spectrum. The proof technique consists of first establishing a spectral theorem for quaternionic bounded normal operators and…

We prove inverse spectral results for differential operators on manifolds and orbifolds invariant under a torus action. These inverse spectral results involve the asymptotic equivariant spectrum, which is the spectrum itself together with…
