We study tetrahedra and the space of tetrahedra from the viewpoint of local and global maxima for intrinsic distance functions.
Let $X$ be a simply connected space and $\Bbb K$ be any field. The normalized singular cochains $N^*(X; {\Bbb K})$ admit a natural strongly homotopy commutative algebra structure, which induces a natural product on the Hochschild homology…
Let $G = \ZZ_p$, $p$ an odd prime, act freely on a finite-dimensional CW-complex $X$ with mod $p$ cohomology isomorphic to that of a lens space $L^{2m-1} (p;q_1,...,q_m)$. In this paper, we determine the mod $p$ cohomology ring of the orbit…
We use methods from the cohomology of groups to describe the finite groups which can act freely and homologically trivially on closed 3-manifolds which are rational homology spheres.
Higher-derivative theories of free higher-spin fields are investigated focusing on their symmetries. Generalizing familiar two-derivative constrained formulations, we first construct less-constrained Einstein-like and Maxwell-like…
We derive universal formulae for integrating out heavy degrees of freedom in scalar field theories up to one-loop level in terms of covariant quantities associated with the geometry of the field manifold. The universal matching results can…
We upgrade the Cauchy--Frobenius Lemma (`Burnside's Lemma') to a homotopy equivalence of $\infty$-groupoids, essentially given by double counting/Fubini in the free loop space of the quotient.
Kernel theorems, in general, provide a convenient representation of bounded linear operators. For the operator acting on a concrete function space, this means that its action on any element of the space can be expressed as a generalised…
We introduce notions of concavity for functions on balanced polyhedral spaces, and we show that concave functions on such spaces satisfy several strong continuity properties.
We use a function field version of the Hardy-Littlewood circle method to study the locus of free rational curves on an arbitrary smooth projective hypersurface of sufficiently low degree. On the one hand this allows us to bound the…
We formulate the equations of motion of a free scalar field in the flat and $AdS$ space of an arbitrary dimension in the form of some "higher spin" covariant constancy conditions. Klein-Gordon equation is interpreted as a non-trivial…
Given a finite alphabet $\Lambda$, and a not necessarily finite type subshift $X\subseteq \Lambda^\infty$, we introduce a partial action of the free group $F(\Lambda)$ on a certain compactification $\Omega_X$ of $X$, which we call the…
Realizing free semicircular elements on the full Fock space, we prove an equivalence between rationality of operators obtained from them and finiteness of the rank of their commutators with right annihilation operators. This is an analogue…
In this semi-expository paper we review the notion of a spherical space. In particular we present some recent results of Wedhorn on the classification of spherical spaces over arbitrary fields. As an application, we introduce and classify…
This paper presents an analytical study of the behavior of radial free-geodesics in the Friedmann-Lema\^itre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) spacetime within the Lambda Cold Dark Matter ({\Lambda}CDM) model. Using the radial free motion solutions,…
We show that in the Snyder space the area of the disc and of the sphere can be quantized. It is also shown that the area spectrum of the sphere can be related to the Bekenstein conjecture for the area spectrum of a black hole horizon.
Mishra has recently established, using a generic static metric, the relative local proper-time 3-acceleration of a test-particle in one-dimensional free fall relative to a static reference frame in any static spacetime. In this paper, on…
By employing the ${\rm AdS}_3/{\rm CFT}_2$ correspondence in this note we observe an analogy between the structures found in connection with the Arkani-Hamed-Bai-He-Yan (ABHY) associahedron used for understanding scattering amplitudes, and…
Let $C_2$ be the cyclic group of order two. We show that the $RO(C_2)$-graded Bredon cohomology of a finite Rep($C_2$)-complex is free as a module over the cohomology of a point when using coefficients in the constant Mackey functor…
We provide the converses to two results of J. Roe (Geom. Topol. 2005): first, the warped cone associated to a free action of an a-T-menable group admits a fibred coarse embedding into a Hilbert space, and second, a free action yielding a…
