In this paper, I will discuss the geometrical structures of multipartite quantum systems based on complex projective schemes. In particular, I will explicitly construct multi-qubit states in terms of these schemes and also discuss…

We study the cohomology and hence $K$-theory of the aperiodic tilings formed by the so called 'cut and project' method, i.e., patterns in $d$ dimensional Euclidean space which arise as sections of higher dimensional, periodic structures.…

Single cluster covering approach provides a plausible mechanism for the formation and stability of octagonal and decagonal quasiperiodic structures. For dodecagonal quasiperiodic pattern such a single cluster covering scheme is still…

We give a simple computational approach to mathematical quasicrystals, combining cut-and-project methods with self-similarity. Starting with a Pisot unit $\beta$ and an iterated function system $g_k(z)=\beta z +z_k, \ k=1,...,m$ in a…

Quartic spectrahedra in 3-space form a semialgebraic set of dimension 24. This set is stratified by the location of its ten nodes. There are twenty maximal strata, identified recently by Degtyarev and Itenberg, via the global Torelli…

A set of non-supersymmetric minimal area embeddings of an M-theory 5-brane are considered. The field theories on the surface of the 5-brane have the field content of N=2 SQCD with fundamental representation matter fields. By suitable choice…

We introduce the concept of bi-conformal transformation, as a generalization of conformal ones, by allowing two orthogonal parts of a manifold with metric $\G$ to be scaled by different conformal factors. In particular, we study their…

We theoretically and numerically studied ordering of "colloidal ionic clusters" on periodic substrate potentials as those generated by optical trapping. Each cluster consists of three charged spherical colloids: two negatively and one…

Let $I=(\mathbb{Z}^3,26,6,B)$ be a 3D digital image, let $Q(I)$ be the associated cubical complex and let $\partial Q(I)$ be the subcomplex of $Q(I)$ whose maximal cells are the quadrangles of $Q(I)$ shared by a voxel of $B$ in the…

Let X be a (connected and reduced) complex space. A q-collar of X is a bounded domain whose boundary is a union of a strongly q-pseudoconvex, a strongly q-pseudoncave and two flat (i.e. locally zero sets of pluriharmonic functions)…

Spherical viral shells with icosahedral symmetry have been considered as quasicrystalline tilings. Similarly to known Caspar-Klug quasi-equivalence theory, the presented approach also minimizes the number of conformations necessary for the…

We present a number of measures and techniques to characterise and effectively construct quasi-isodynamic stellarators within the near-axis framework, without the need to resort to the computation of global equilibria. These include…

Due to their simultaneous optimization for radial and parallel neoclassical transport, quasi-isodynamic fields have been the main choice of stellarator magnetic configuration for most fusion reactor candidates in recent years. However,…

The nucleation of quasicrystals remains a fundamental puzzle, primarily due to the absence of a periodic translational template. Here, we demonstrate that phasons - hidden degrees of freedom unique to quasiperiodic order - drive diverse…
