In this expository paper, we discuss how Fourier-Mukai-type transformations, which we call SYZ mirror transformations, can be applied to provide a geometric understanding of the mirror symmetry phenomena for semi-flat Calabi-Yau manifolds…
We revisit our construction of mirror symmetries for compactifications of Type II superstrings on twisted connected sum $G_2$ manifolds. For a given $G_2$ manifold, we discuss evidence for the existence of mirror symmetries of two kinds:…

Symmetry is an important feature of many constraint programs. We show that any symmetry acting on a set of symmetry breaking constraints can be used to break symmetry. Different symmetries pick out different solutions in each symmetry…
We are entering an era where the numerical construction of generic spacetimes is becoming a reality. The use of computer simulations, in principle, allows us to solve Einstein equations in their full generality and unravel important…
The hemispherical Mueller matrix map for light reflected from a plane-parallel planetary atmosphere is shown to obey several symmetry properties that provide a straightforward method to check their physical realizability. The mirror…

We examine additional symmetries of specific refraction index profiles that are used in the well-known phenomena of perfect imaging and cloaking.In the considered cases, the translation generator and the angular momentum are conserved. We…
The dominance of string theory in the research landscape of quantum gravity physics (despite any direct experimental evidence) can, I think, be justified in a variety of ways. Here I focus on an argument from mathematical fertility, broadly…
In this paper we conjecture a reformulation of the monomial-divisor mirror map for (2,2) mirror symmetry, valid at a boundary of the moduli space, that is easily extended to also include tangent bundle deformations -- an important step…
Two examples, not connected at present, from author's papers (Nuovo Cim., 1992, v.105A, p.77 [hep-th/0207210] and GRG, 1999, v.31, p.1431 [gr-qc/0207017]) are considered here in which a physical model has discrete symmetries and additional…
