The Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem dictates that a trivial symmetric insulator in lattice models is prohibited if lattice translation symmetry and $U(1)$ charge conservation are both preserved. In this paper, we generalize the…

In 1968, E. T. Schmidt introduced the M\_3[D] construction, an extension of the five-element nondistributive lattice M\_3 by a bounded distributive lattice D, defined as the lattice of all triples $(x, y, z) \in D^3$ satisfying…

For coprime integers $N,a,b,c$, with $0<a<b<c<N$, we define the set $$ \{ (na \! \! \! \! \pmod{N}, nb \! \! \! \! \pmod{N}, nc \! \! \! \! \pmod{N}) : 0 \leq n < N\}. $$ We study which parameters $N,a,b,c$ generate point sets with long…

We study the existence of cocompact lattices in Lie groups with bi-invariant metric of signature $(2,n-2)$. We assume in addition that the Lie groups under consideration are simply-connected, indecomposable and solvable. Then their centre…

In this letter, the possible appearance of N=2 supersymmetry at a low energy scale is investigated in the context of unified theories. Introducing mirror particles for all the gauge and matter multiplets of the Minimal Supersymmetric…

LCM lattices were introduced by Gasharov, Peeva, and Welker as a way to study minimal free resolutions of monomial ideals. All LCM lattices are atomic and all atomic lattices arise as the LCM lattice of some monomial ideal. We…

Following a suggestion due to Bardeen and Pearson, we formulate an effective light-front Hamiltonian for large-N gauge theory in (2+1)-dimensions. Two space-time dimensions are continuous and the remaining space dimension is discretised on…

Simulations of supersymmetric field theories with spontaneously broken supersymmetry require in addition to the ultraviolet regularisation also an infrared one, due to the emergence of the massless Goldstino. The intricate interplay between…

For every univariate formula $\chi$ we introduce a lattices of intermediate theories: the lattice of $\chi$-logics. The key idea to define chi-logics is to interpret atomic propositions as fixpoints of the formula $\chi^2$, which can be…

$ $Abert, Gelander and Nikolov [AGN17] conjectured that the number of generators $d(\Gamma)$ of a lattice $\Gamma$ in a high rank simple Lie group $H$ grows sub-linearly with $v = \mu(H / \Gamma)$, the co-volume of $\Gamma$ in $H$. We prove…

Orders in number fields provide natural examples of lattices. We ask: what can the successive minima of lattices arising from orders in number fields be? Given an order $\mathcal{O}$ of absolute discriminant $\Delta$ in a degree $n$ number…

We show that the ring of modular forms with characters for the even unimodular lattice of signature (2,10) is generated by forms of weights 4, 10, 12, 16, 18, 22, 24, 28, 30, 36, 42, and 252 with one relation of weight 504. The proof is…

This paper investigates the decoding of a remarkable set of lattices: We treat in a unified framework the Leech lattice in dimension 24, the Nebe lattice in dimension 72, and the Barnes-Wall lattices. A new interesting lattice is…

We prove that the norm of the Euler class E for flat vector bundles is $2^{-n}$ (in even dimension $n$, since it vanishes in odd dimension). This shows that the Sullivan--Smillie bound considered by Gromov and Ivanov--Turaev is sharp. We…

In 1878, Jordan showed that a finite subgroup of GL(n,C) contains an abelian normal subgroup whose index is bounded by a function of n alone. Previously, the author has given precise bounds. Here, we consider analogues for finite linear…

Patch lattices, introduced by G. Cz\'edli and E.T. Schmidt in 2013, are the building stones for slim (and so necessarily finite and planar) semimodular lattices with respect to gluing. Slim semimodular lattices were introduced by G.…

For fixed $k$ we prove exponential lower bounds on the equilateral number of subspaces of $\ell_{\infty}^n$ of codimension $k$. In particular, we show that if the unit ball of a normed space of dimension $n$ is a centrally symmetric…

Self-dual codes have been studied actively because they are connected with mathematical structures including block designs and lattices and have practical applications in quantum error-correcting codes and secret sharing schemes.…

In this work, we determine a sharp upper bound on the orthogonality defect of HKZ reduced bases up to dimension $3$. Using this result, we determine a general upper bound for the orthogonality defect of HKZ reduced bases of arbitrary rank.…

We examine the N=2 Wess-Zumino model defined on the $d=2$ Euclidean lattice in connection with a restoration of the Leibniz rule in the limit $a\to0$ in perturbatively finite theory. We are interested in the difference between the Wilson…
