There is a conjecture, that the torsionfreeness of the module of differentials in a point of an algebraic or algebroid curve should imply that the curve is non singular at that point. A report on the main results is given.
This work is an introduction to the local geometric theory of Veronese webs developed in the last twenty years. Among the different possible approach, here one has chosen the point of view of differential forms. Moreover, in order to make…
We survey the recent applications and developments of sieve methods related to discrete groups, especially in the case of infinite index subgroups of arithmetic groups.
In this article, we construct an orbifold quantum cohomology twisted by a flat gerbe. Then we compute these invariants in the case of a smooth manifold and a discrete torsion on a global quotient orbifold.
The Hilbert transform is a multiplier operator and is widely used in the theory of Fourier transforms. The Hilbert transform was the motivation for the development of modern harmonic analysis. Its discrete version is also widely used in…
The orbifold braid groups of two dimensional orbifolds were defined in [1] (arXiv:math/9907194) to understand certain Artin groups as subgroups of some suitable orbifold braid groups. We studied orbifold braid groups in some more detail in…
We study discrete orderings in the real spectrum of a commutative ring by defining discrete prime cones and give an algebro-geometric meaning to some kind of diophantine problems over discretely ordered rings. Also for a discretely ordered…
We develop a robust foundation for studying the fundamental group(oid) in discrete homotopy theory, including: equivalent definitions and basic properties, the theory of covering graphs, and the discrete version of the Seifert-van Kampen…
In this paper we consider torsion gravity in the case of the Dirac field, and by going into the rest frame we study what happens when a uniform precession as well as a phase are taken into account for the spinor field; we discuss how…
In this paper we discuss geometric torsion in terms of a distinguished class of Dirac operators. We demonstrate that from this class of Dirac operators a variational problem for torsion can be derived similar to that of Yang-Mills gauge…
We describe a part of the recent developments in the theory of separately holomorphic mappings between complex analytic spaces. Our description focuses on works using the technique of holomorphic discs.
This review paper is devoted to a presentation of recent progress in wave turbulence. I first present the context and state of the art of this field of research both experimentally and theoretically. I then focus on the case of wave…
Cycloids, hipocycloids and epicycloids have an often forgotten common property: they are homothetic to their evolutes. But what if use convex symmetric polygons as unit balls, can we define evolutes and cycloids which are genuinely…
In recent years, there is a growing interest in the studying octonions, which are 8-dimensional hypercomplex numbers forming the biggest normed division algebras over the real numbers. In particular, various tools of the classical complex…
The topological hypothesis claims that phase transitions in a classical statistical mechanical system are related to changes in the topology of the level sets of the Hamiltonian. So far, the study of this hypothesis has been restricted to…
In the study of discrete dynamical systems, we typically start with a function from a space into itself, and ask questions about the properties of sequences of iterates of the function. In this paper we reverse the direction of this study.…
The discrete cosine transform is a valuable tool in analysis of data on undirected rectangular grids, like images. In this paper it is shown how one can define an analogue of the discrete cosine transform on triangles. This is done by…
We launch a first investigation into how a light scalar field coupled both conformally and disformally to matter influences the evolution of spinning point-like bodies. Working directly at the level of the equations of motion, we derive…
Horndeski gravity holds a special position as the most general extension of Einstein's theory of general relativity with a single scalar degree of freedom and second-order field equations. Because of these features, Horndeski gravity is an…
Given a unipotent bundle of smooth manifolds we construct its secondary transfer map and show that this map determines the higher smooth torsion of the bundle. This approach to higher torsion provides a new perspective on some of its…
