A criterion given by Castejon-Amenedo and MacCallum (1990) for the existence of (locally) hypersurface-orthogonal generators of an orthogonally-transitive two-parameter Abelian group of motions (a $G_2I$) in spacetime is re-expressed as a…

For any integer $d\times (n+1)$ matrix $A$ and parameter $\beta\in\CC^d$ let $M_A(\beta)$ be the associated $A$-hypergeometric (or GKZ) system in the variables $x_0,\ldots,x_n$. We describe bounds for the (roots of the) $b$-functions of…

We highlight that integer Heisenberg groups at level 2 underlie topological quantum phenomena: their group algebras coincide with the algebras of quantum observables of abelian anyons in fractional quantum Hall (FQH) systems on closed…

We produce a criterion for open sets in projective $n$-space over a separably closed field to have \'etale cohomological dimension bounded by $2n-3$. We use the criterion to exhibit a scheme for which \'etale cohomological dimension is…

We study dimension theory for the $C^*$-algebras of row-finite $k$-graphs with no sources. We establish that strong aperiodicity - the higher-rank analogue of condition (K) - for a $k$-graph is necessary and sufficient for the associated…

We study the locus of the liftings of a homogeneous ideal $H$ in a polynomial ring over any field. We prove that this locus can be endowed with a structure of scheme $\mathrm L_H$ by applying the constructive methods of Gr\"obner bases, for…

We determine the codimension of the Betti strata of the family G(H) parametrizing graded Artinian quotients A of the polynomial ring R in two variables, having Hilbert function H. The Betti stratum G(B,H) parametrizes all such quotients…

The holographic bound asserts that the entropy $S$ of a system is bounded from above by a quarter of the area ${\cal A}$ of a circumscribing surface measured in Planck areas: $S\leq {\cal A}/4{\ell^2_P}$. This bound is widely regarded a…

The goal of this paper is to classify parametrically parabolic submanifolds in any codimension. First, we describe the ones that are ruled and show that they are the only parabolic submanifolds that admit an isometric immersion as a…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field. There has been much interest in characterizing multiple structures in $\P^n_K$ defined on a linear subspace of small codimension under additional assumptions (e.g. Cohen-Macaulay). We show that no…

HodgeRank generalizes ranking algorithms, e.g. Google PageRank, to rank alternatives based on real-world (often incomplete) data using graphs and discrete exterior calculus. It analyzes multipartite interactions on high-dimensional networks…

We consider the dynamics arising from the iteration of an arbitrary sequence of polynomials with uniformly bounded degrees and coefficients and show that, as parameters vary within a single hyperbolic component in parameter space, certain…

For geometric Lorenz attractors (including the classical Lorenz attractor) we obtain a greatly simplified proof of the central limit theorem which applies also to the more general class of codimension two singular hyperbolic attractors. We…

We study the arithmetical ranks and the cohomological dimensions of an infinite class of Cohen-Macaulay varieties of minimal degree. Among these we find, on the one hand, infinitely many set-theoretic complete intersections, on the other…

Let $\mathcal{A} \rightarrow S$ be an abelian scheme over an irreducible variety over $\mathbb{C}$ of relative dimension $g$. For any simply-connected subset $\Delta$ of $S^{\mathrm{an}}$ one can define the Betti map from…

Let H: C^2 -> C^2 be the Henon mapping given by (x,y) --> (p(x) - ay,x). The key invariant subsets are K_+/-, the sets of points with bounded forward images, J_+/- = the boundary of K_+/-, J = the union of J_+ and J_-, and K = the union of…

Ranking theories according to their strength is a recurring motif in mathematical logic. We introduce a new ranking of arbitrary (not necessarily recursively axiomatized) theories in terms of the encoding power of their $\beta$-models:…

Second-order superintegrable systems in dimensions two and three are essentially classified. With increasing dimension, however, the non-linear partial differential equations employed in current methods become unmanageable. Here we propose…

We give a structure theorem for Cohen Macaulay monomial ideals of codimension 2, and describe all possible relation matrices of such ideals. In case that the ideal has a linear resolution, the relation matrices can be identified with the…

Let $A$ be an integer matrix, and assume that its semigroup ring $\mathbb{C}[\mathbb{N}A]$ is normal. Fix a face $F$ of the cone of $A$. We show that the projection and restriction of an $A$-hypergeometric system to the coordinate subspace…
