We investigate the problem of defining group or loop structures on spheres, where by ''sphere'' we mean the level set q(x) = c of a general K-valued quadratic form q, for an invertible scalar c. When K is a field and q non-degenerate, then…

We comment on the article by M. Ozdemir and M. Erdogdu. We indicate that the exponential map onto the Lorentz group can be obtained in two elementary ways. The first way utilizes a commutative algebra involving a conjugate of a…

We introduce a natural map from the space of pure-type complex differential forms on a complex manifold to the corresponding one on the infinitesimal deformations of this complex manifold. By use of this map, we generalize an extension…

We construct quadratic finite-dimensional Poisson algebras and their quantum versions related to rank N and degree one vector bundles over elliptic curves with n marked points. The algebras are parameterized by the moduli of curves. For N=2…

The exponential and Cayley map on SE(3) are the prevailing coordinate maps used in Lie group integration schemes for rigid body and flexible body systems. Such geometric integrators are the Munthe-Kaas and generalized-alpha schemes, which…

We study non-associative twisted group algebras over $(\Z_2)^n$ with cubic twisting functions. We construct a series of algebras that extend the classical algebra of octonions in the same way as the Clifford algebras extend the algebra of…

Let X be a compact (resp. compact and nonsingular) real algebraic variety and let Y be a homogeneous space for some linear real algebraic group. We prove that a continuous (resp. C^infinity) map f:X-->Y can be approximated by regular maps…

We derive the universal R-matrix of the quantum-deformed enveloping algebra of centrally extended sl(2|2) using Drinfeld's quantum double construction. We are led to enlarging the algebra by additional generators corresponding to an sl(2)…

The classical Heawood inequality states that if the complete graph $K_n$ on $n$ vertices is embeddable in the sphere with $g$ handles, then $g \ge\dfrac{(n-3)(n-4)}{12}$. A higher-dimensional analogue of the Heawood inequality is the…

Let $\cal{A}$ be the algebra of quaternions $\mathbb{H}$ or octonions $\mathbb{O}$. In this manuscript a new proof is given, based on ideas of Cauchy and D' Alembert, of the fact that an ordinary polynomial $f(t) \in {\cal{A}}\, [t]$ has a…

In this paper we give new methods to construct zero divisors in A_n =R^(2^n) the Cayley_Dickson algebras over the real numbers, for n larger than 4, and we also relate the set of zero divisors in A_{n+1} with the Stiefel Manifold V_{2^n…

We prove existence and uniqueness of optimal maps on $RCD^*(K,N)$ spaces under the assumption that the starting measure is absolutely continuous. We also discuss how this result naturally leads to the notion of exponentiation.

Special generic maps are higher dimensional versions of Morse functions with exactly two singular points, characterizing spheres topologically except 4-dimensional cases and 4-dimensional standard spheres. The class of such maps also…

The reflection map introduced by D'Angelo is applied to deduce simpler descriptions of nondegeneracy conditions for sphere maps and to the study of infinitesimal deformations of sphere maps. It is shown that the dimension of the space of…

Multidimensional noncommutative Laplace transforms over octonions are studied. Theorems about direct and inverse transforms and other properties of the Laplace transforms over the Cayley-Dickson algebras are proved. Applications to partial…

We obtain an analog of the prime number theorem for a class of branched covering maps on the $2$-sphere $S^2$ called expanding Thurston maps, which are topological models of some non-uniformly expanding rational maps without any smoothness…

We prove that the Riemannian geometry of almost K\"ahler manifolds can be expressed in terms of the Poisson algebra of smooth functions on the manifold. Subsequently, K\"ahler-Poisson algebras are introduced, and it is shown that a…

The Cayley-Dickson loop Q_n is the multiplicative closure of basic elements of the algebra constructed by n applications of the Cayley-Dickson doubling process (the first few examples of such algebras are real numbers, complex numbers,…

We show that the K-theory spectra of many assemblers, such as the assembler of polytopes in euclidean, hyperbolic or spherical geometry, as well as the assembler of definable sets, are equivalent to the K-theory spectrum of a squares…

In this article we generalize a theorem of Benson for generalized quadrangles to strongly regular graphs and directed strongly regular graphs. The main result provides numerical restrictions on the number of fixed vertices and the number of…
