This paper is a synthesis and extension of three earlier papers on $PD_4$-complexes $X$ with fundamental group $\pi$ such that $c.d.\pi=2$ and $\pi$ has one end. Our goal is to show that the homotopy types of such complexes are determined…
We study quantum field theories with boundary by utilizing non-invertible symmetries. We consider three kinds of boundary conditions of the four dimensional $\mathbb{Z}_2$ lattice gauge theory at the critical point as examples. The weights…

We present a method for constructing covariantly constant endomorphisms for the mod $p$ equivariant quantum connection, using the quantum Steenrod power operations of Fukaya and Wilkins. The example of the cotangent bundle of the projective…
For several Hodge-type Shimura varieties of good reduction in characteristic $p$, we show that the cone of weights of automorphic forms is encoded by the stack of $G$-zips of Pink-Wedhorn-Ziegler. This establishes several instances of a…
We investigate the mod $p$ Buchstaber invariant of the skeleta of simplices, for a prime number $p$, and compare them for different values of $p$. For $p=2$, the invariant is the real Buchstaber invariant. Our findings reveal that these…
We investigate the phenomenon of counterion condensation in a solution of highly charged rigid polyelectrolytes within the cell model. A method is proposed which -- based on the charge distribution function -- identifies both the fraction…
A structural explanation of the coupling constants in the standard model, i.e the fine structure constant and the Weinberg angle, and of the gauge fixing contributions is given in terms of symmetries and representation theory. The coupling…
We present a construction of $\kappa$-deformed complex scalar field theory with the objective of shedding light on the way discrete symmetries and CPT invariance are affected by the deformation. Our starting point is the observation that,…
We provide a linear analysis on normal modes of the spin Boltzmann equation proposed in \cite{Weickgenannt:2021cuo}, where the non-diagonal or polarized part of the transition rate is neglected to ensure the Hermitian property of linearized…
To speak about identical particles - bosons or fermions - in quantum field theories with kappa-deformed Poincare symmetry, one must have a kappa-covariant notion of particle exchange. This means constructing intertwiners of the relevant…

The linearized collision operator of the Boltzmann equation for single species can be written as a sum of a positive multiplication operator, the collision frequency, and a compact integral operator. This classical result has more recently,…
