In the first part of the paper we associate a pre-additive category $\mathcal{C}(\Sigma)$ to a closed oriented surface $\Sigma$, called the {\em contact category} and constructed from contact structures on $\Sigma\times[0,1]$. There are…
We study the relation between a certain graded part of the Jacobian ring of a projective hypersurface and a certain graded quotient for the Hodge filtration of its primitive cohomology, in the case that the hypersurface has at most isolated…
In this paper we analyze the normal forms of a general quadratic Hamiltonian system defined on the dual of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{o}(K)$ of real $K$ - skew - symmetric matrices, where $K$ is an arbitrary $3\times 3$ real symmetric…
In this paper we extend the geometric formalism of Hamilton-Jacobi theory for Mechanics to the case of classical field theories in the k-symplectic framework.
We make some remarks on the group of symmetries in gravity; we believe that K-theory and noncommutative geometry inescepably have to play an important role. Furthermore we make some comments and questions on the recent work of Connes and…
Let $\bigwedge_\sigma V=\bigoplus_{k\geq 0}\bigwedge_\sigma^kV$ be the quantum exterior algebra associated to a finite-dimensional braided vector space $(V,\sigma)$. For an algebra $\mathfrak{A}$, we consider the convolution product on the…
We study various kinds of Grassmannians or Lagrangian Grassmannians over $\mathbb{R}$, $\mathbb{C}$ or $\mathbb{H}$, all of which can be expressed as $\mathbb{G}/\mathbb{P}$ where $\mathbb{G}$ is a classical group and $\mathbb{P}$ is a…
An analytical model founded on geometric and potential energy principles for kink band deformation in laminated composite struts is presented. It is adapted from an earlier successful study for confined layered structures which was…
We consider the space of embeddings of finitely many circles that bound disks in non-positively curved surfaces. We index the connected components of this space with finite rooted trees and show that the connected components are classifying…
We show that Shipley's "detection functor" for symmetric spectra generalizes to motivic symmetric spectra. As an application, we construct motivic strict ring spectra representing morphic cohomology, semi-topological $K$-theory, and…
We describe a fully faithful embedding of the category of (reflexive) globular sets into the category of counital cosymmetric $R$-coalgebras when $R$ is an integral domain. This embedding is a lift of the usual functor of $R$-chains and the…
The goal of this work is to study some aspects of the geometry of the first cover $\Sigma^1$ in the Drinfeld tower over $\mathbb{H}^d_K$ the Drinfeld symmetric space over $K$ a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. It is a cyclic \'etale…
In this expository article, we prove a birational classification of smooth projective models of surfaces with negative Kodaira dimension over $\mathbb{Z}$ and over more general rings of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$, depending on their…
This review paper is concerned with the generalizations to field theory of the tangent and cotangent structures and bundles that play fundamental roles in the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations of classical mechanics. The paper…
In this Master of Science Thesis I introduce geometric algebra both from the traditional geometric setting of vector spaces, and also from a more combinatorial view which simplifies common relations and operations. This view enables us to…
We use Gromov's K--area to define a generalized homology theory on compact smooth manifolds. In fact, this theory collects obstructions to the enlargeability of the manifold and its nontrivial submanifolds. Moreover, using the K--area…
This article provides an overview of the techniques related to classification of spherical and more general objects within triangulated categories, and its relationship with algebraic geometry, representation theory and symplectic geometry.…
We determine the A(1)-homotopy of the topological cyclic homology of the connective real K-theory spectrum ko. The answer has an associated graded that is a free F_2[v_2^4]-module of rank 52, on explicit generators in stems -1 \le * \le 30.…
We show that for finite dimensional regular Noetherian rings that contain a field or are smooth over a Dedekind domain, the comparison map from the Hermitian K-theory of genuine symmetric forms to that of symmetric forms is an equivalence…
Over the last two years, the canonical approach to quantum gravity based on connections and triads has been put on a firm mathematical footing through the development and application of a new functional calculus on the space of gauge…
