We determine semiclassical quasienergy spectra from periodic orbits for a system with a mixed phase space, the kicked top. Throughout the transition from integrability to well developed chaos the standard error incurred for the…
We provide the details of the theory of magnetic symmetry in quasicrystals, which has previously only been outlined. We develop a practical formalism for the enumeration of spin point groups and spin space groups, and for the calculation of…
We study equivariant projective compactifications of reductive groups obtained by closing the image of a group in the space of operators of a projective representation. We describe the structure and the mutual position of their orbits under…
Observations of the spatial distributions of young stars in star-forming regions can be linked to the theory of clustered star formation using spatial statistical methods. The MYStIX project provides rich samples of young stars from the…
Let X be a projective complex 3-fold, quasihomogeneous with respect to an action of a linear algebraic group. We show that X is a compactification of SL_2/G, G a discrete subgroup, or that X can be equivariantly transformed into the 3-dim.…
The clusters of young stars in massive star-forming regions show a wide range of sizes, morphologies, and numbers of stars. Their highly subclustered structures are revealed by the MYStIX project's sample of 31,754 young stars in nearby…
A computational theory for clustering and a semi-supervised clustering algorithm is presented. Clustering is defined to be the obtainment of groupings of data such that each group contains no anomalies with respect to a chosen grouping…
Clustering can be defined as the process of assembling objects into a number of groups whose elements are similar to each other in some manner. As a technique that is used in many domains, such as face clustering, plant categorization,…
Fix a finite set of points in Euclidean $n$-space $\euc^n$, thought of as a point-cloud sampling of a certain domain $D\subset\euc^n$. The Rips complex is a combinatorial simplicial complex based on proximity of neighbors that serves as an…
Spectral clustering has become one of the most widely used clustering techniques when the structure of the individual clusters is non-convex or highly anisotropic. Yet, despite its immense popularity, there exists fairly little theory about…
Quasicrystals provide a fascinating class of materials with intriguing properties. Despite a strong potential for numerous technical applications, the conditions under which quasicrystals form are still poorly understood. Currently, it is…
Given a weighted and complete graph G = (V, E), V denotes the set of n objects to be clustered, and the weight d(u, v) associated with an edge (u, v) belonging to E denotes the dissimilarity between objects u and v. The diameter of a…
Let L be a preprojective algebra of Dynkin type, and let G be the corresponding complex semisimple simply connected algebraic group. We study rigid modules in subcategories sub(Q) for Q an injective L-module, and we introduce a mutation…
In this paper we provide a theory of chain projection ordered categories and generalize that of chain projection ordered groupoids developed by East and Azeef Muhammed recently. By using chain projection ordered categories, we obtain a…
Schur multiplier $M(G)$ of a finite group $G$ has been studied heavily. To proceed further to the study of projective (or spin) representations of $G$ and their characters (called spin characters), it is necessary to construct explicitly a…
We consider the problem of segmenting an image into superpixels in the context of $k$-means clustering, in which we wish to decompose an image into local, homogeneous regions corresponding to the underlying objects. Our novel approach…
Selective clustering annotated using modes of projections (SCAMP) is a new clustering algorithm for data in $\mathbb{R}^p$. SCAMP is motivated from the point of view of non-parametric mixture modeling. Rather than maximizing a…
We develop a method to design tunable quasiperiodic structures of particles suspended in a fluid by controlling standing acoustic waves. One application of our results is to ultrasound directed self-assembly, which allows fabricating…
Well-resolved galaxy clusters often show a large-scale quasi-spiral structure in deprojected density $\rho$ and temperature $T$ fields, delineated by a tangential discontinuity known as a cold front, superimposed on a universal radial…
Tilings and point sets arising from substitutions are classical mathematical models of quasicrystals. Their hierarchical structure allows one to obtain concrete answers regarding spectral questions tied to the underlying measures and…
