The interior structure of arbitrary sets of quaternion units is analyzed using general methods of the theory of matrices. It is shown that the units are composed of quadratic combinations of fundamental objects having a dual mathematical…
We consider the problem of existence of representations of topological groupoids on a principal bundle and the classification of such representations up to gauge transformation. Such representations naturally occur in various contexts such…
This is a write-up of a two hour talk at the Simons workshop. It contains an elementary introduction to F-theory and may be useful for people new to the subject.
We present a comprehensive and self-contained discussion of the use of the transfer matrix to study propagation in one-dimensional lossless systems, including a variety of examples, such as superlattices, photonic crystals, and optical…
The use of complexified quaternions and $i$-complex geometry in formulating the Dirac equation allows us to give interesting geometric interpretations hidden in the conventional matrix-based approach.
We provide a complete structure theorem for involutory matrices. This yields a new approach to principal angles between subspaces and provide a series of nice formulae for these angles.
From considerations of the number of matrix elements of different orders of magnitude in the quark and charged lepton mass matrices, we suggest that the underlying gauge group responsible for the spectrum should have several---actually of…
The quadratic phase Fourier transform QPFT is a neoteric addition to the class of Fourier transforms and embodies a variety of signal processing tools including the Fourier, fractional Fourier, linear canonical, and special affine Fourier…
Superspace is considered as space of parameters of the supercoherent states defining the basis for oscillator-like unitary irreducible representations of the generalized superconformal group SU(2m,2n/2N) in the field of quaternions H. The…
The theory of permutation orbifolds is reviewed and applied to the study of symmetric product orbifolds and the congruence subgroup problem. The issue of discrete torsion, the combinatorics of symmetric products, the Galois action and…

Locating the zeros of quaternionic polynomials is a fundamental problem with significant implications across scientific and engineering disciplines, yet the noncommutative nature of quaternion multiplication makes it fundamentally more…
An analysis of the characteristic function of Gaussian quadratic forms is presented in [1] to study the performance of multichannel communication systems. This technical report reviews this analysis, obtaining alternative expressions to…
We present an introduction to fractal interpolation beginning with a global set-up and then extending to a local, a non-stationary, and finally the novel quaternionic setting. Emphasis is placed on the overall perspective with references…
The recent definition of slice regular function of several quaternionic variables suggests a new notion of quaternionic manifold. We give the definition of quaternionic regular manifold, as a space locally modeled on $\mathbb{H}^n$, in a…
Two subgroups H and K are 4-permutable in G if <H,K> = HKHK, and H is strong 4-quasinormal in G if H is 4-permutable with every subgroups K of G. A finite group G is called Sq4T-group if strong 4-quasinormality is transitive relation among…
We study the correspondence assigning the vertices of a certain quotient of the local Bruhat-Tits tree for the general linear group over a global function field, to conjugacy classes of maximal orders in some quaternion algebras. The…
This expository article introduces the topic of roots in a compact Lie group. Compared to the many other treatments of this standard topic, I intended for mine to be relatively elementary, example-driven, and free of unnecessary…
Quaternions are important for a wide variety of rotation-related problems in computer graphics, machine vision, and robotics. We study the nontrivial geometry of the relationship between quaternions and rotation matrices by exploiting the…
We introduce the notion of wide representation of an inverse semigroup and prove that with a suitably defined topology there is a space of germs of such a representation which has the structure of an etale groupoid. This gives an elegant…
