This is a survey article on finite type invariants of 3-manifolds written for the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics to be published by Elsevier.
For any dimension $d\geq 3$ we construct $C^{1}$-open subsets of the space of $C^{3}$ vector fields such that the flow associated to each vector field is Axiom A and exhibits a non-trivial attractor which mixes exponentially with respect to…
This Resource Letter provides a guide to the literature on the physics and astrophysics of gravitational waves. Journals, books, reports, archives, and websites are provided as basic resources and for current research frontiers in…
In this paper we provide a dynamical characterization of isolated invariant continua which are global attractors for planar dissipative flows. As a consequence, a sufficient condition for an isolated invariant continuum to be either an…
Due to the recent renewal in the interest for embedded surfaces we provide a list of commented references of interest.
This survey is a presentation of the arguments in the proof that Henon-like maps f_a(x,y)=(1-a x^2,0) + R(a,x,y) with |R(a,x,y)|< b have a "strange attractor", with positive Lebesgue probability in the parameter "a", if the perturbation…
We make some comments about the results we obtained in Phys. Rev. Lett. 86,3392(2001), and in Phys. Rev. Lett.87, 177206 (2001), and show that the conclusion of a recent paper [cond-mat/0409495] leveling some criticism on our results is, in…
Survey article on the geometry of spherical varieties. Invited survey for Transformation Groups.
We give an elementary introduction to our papers relating the geometry of rational homogeneous varieties to representation theory. We also describe related work and recent progress.
The first part of these notes is a self-contained introduction to generalized complex geometry. It is intended as a `user manual' for tools used in the study of supersymmetric backgrounds of supergravity. In the second part we review some…
This work thoroughly examines several analytical tools, each possessing a different level of mathematical intricacy, for the purpose of characterizing the orientation distribution function of elongated objects under flow. Our investigation…
These lecture notes give an introduction to the Kahler-Ricci flow. They are based on lectures given by the authors at the conference "Analytic Aspects of Complex Algebraic Geometry", held at the Centre International de Rencontres…
This is a comment on [G. Knight and R. Klages, Phys. Rev. E 84, 041135 (2011); also available at arXiv:1107.5293v2 [math-ph]].
We review a (constructive) approach first introduced in [6] and further developed in [7, 8, 38, 9] for hydrodynamic limits of asymmetric attractive particle systems, in a weak or in a strong (that is, almost sure) sense, in an homogeneous…
The topics of Convexity and Concavity and Envelopes are central in Complex Analysis and extensively investigated. The aim of this paper is to find a possible counterpart in Algebraic Geometry. The article presents preliminary results on…
The article presents a new approach to euclidean plane geometry based on projective geometric algebra (PGA). It is designed for anyone with an interest in plane geometry, or who wishes to familiarize themselves with PGA. After a brief…
Consider the set of solutions to a system of polynomial equations in many variables. An algebraic manifold is an open submanifold of such a set. We introduce a new method for computing integrals and sampling from distributions on algebraic…
An informal guide to the history of Heisenberg's matrix mechanics. It is designed for mathematicians with only a minimal background in either physics or geometry, and it is based upon Heisenberg's original arguments.
The paper consists of two parts. The first part is devoted to logic for universal algebraic geometry. The second one deals with problems and some results. It may be regarded as a brief exposition of some ideas from the book in progress:…
We present a multidimensional flow exhibiting a Rovella-like attractor: a transitive invariant set with a non-Lorenz-like singularity accumulated by regular orbits and a multidimensional non-uniformly expanding invariant direction.…
