We construct lattices on six dimensional not completely solvable almost abelian Lie groups, for which the Mostow condition does not hold. For the corresponding compact quotients, we compute the de Rham cohomology (which does not agree in…
This paper studies the differential lattice, defined to be a lattice $L$ equipped with a map $d:L\to L$ that satisfies a lattice analog of the Leibniz rule for a derivation. Isomorphic differential lattices are studied and classifications…
We show that the timed Dicke states of a collection of three-level atoms can form a tight-binding lattice in momentum space. This lattice, coined the superradiance lattice (SL), can be constructed based on electromagnetically induced…
We construct examples of Delone sets of the plane (that is, discrete subsets that are uniformly separated and coarsely dense) that are repetitive (each patch of the set appears in every large-enough ball) though non-rectifiable (i.e. non…
Delaunay protection is a measure of how far a Delaunay triangulation is from being degenerate. In this short paper we study the protection properties and other quality measures of the Delaunay triangulations of a family of lattices that is…
We study when the Picard group of smooth surfaces of degree $d\geq 5$ in $\mathbb{P}^3$ acquires extra classes. In particular we show that the so called exceptional components of the Noether-Lefschetz locus are not Zariski dense. This…
In addition to the vertices of the regular hexagon and icosahedron, there are precisely two strictly projective tight 5-designs: one constructed from the short vectors of the Leech lattice and the other corresponding to a generalized…
We denote by Conc(L) the semilattice of all finitely generated congruences of a lattice L. For varieties (i.e., equational classes) V and W of lattices such that V is contained neither in W nor its dual, and such that every simple member of…
Locally solid Riesz spaces have been widely investigated in the past several decades; but locally solid topological lattice-ordered groups seem to be largely unexplored. The paper is an attempt to initiate a relatively systematic study of…
The SU(3) chiral lagrangian for the lightest octets of mesons and baryons is constructed on a spacetime lattice. The lattice spacing acts as an ultraviolet momentum cutoff which appears directly in the Lagrangian so chiral symmetry remains…
We present six strongly gravitationally lensed Ly-$\alpha$ Emitters (LAEs) at $z\sim4-5$ with HST narrowband imaging isolating Ly-$\alpha$. Through complex radiative transfer Ly-$\alpha$ encodes information about the spatial distribution…
Obtaining the low-energy configurations of spin glasses that have rugged energy landscapes is of direct relevance to combinatorial optimization and fundamental science. Search-based heuristics have difficulty with this task due to the…
We consider a deformation $E_{L,\Lambda}^{(m)}(it)$ of the Dedekind eta function depending on two $d$-dimensional simple lattices $(L,\Lambda)$ and two parameters $(m,t)\in (0,\infty)$, initially proposed by Terry Gannon. We show that the…
Motivated by the search for best lattice sphere packings in Euclidean spaces of large dimensions we study randomly generated perfect lattices in moderately large dimensions (up to d=19 included). Perfect lattices are relevant in the…
Lattices with a circulant generator matrix represent a subclass of cyclic lattices. This subclass can be described by a basis containing a vector and its circular shifts. In this paper, we present certain conditions under which the norm…
We asymptotically estimate the variance of the number of lattice points in a thin, randomly rotated annulus lying on the surface of the sphere. This partially resolves a conjecture of Bourgain, Rudnick, and Sarnak. We also obtain estimates…
In this paper we study congruent and non-congruent hyperball (hypersphere) packings of the truncated regular octahedron and cube tilings. These are derived from the Coxeter simplex tilings $\{p,3,4\}$ $(7\le p \in \mathbb{N})$ and…
This paper proves that the simultaneous lattice packing-covering constant of an octahedron is $7/6$. In other words, $7/6$ is the smallest positive number $r$ such that for every octahedron $O$ centered at the origin there is a lattice…
In this work, we discuss completeness for the lattice orders of first and second order stochastic dominance. The main results state that, both, first and second order stochastic dominance induce Dedekind super complete lattices,…
Let $X \subset {\mathbb R}^m$ be a spherical code (i.e., a finite subset of the unit sphere) and consider the ideal of all polynomials in $m$ variables which vanish on $X$. Motivated by a study of cometric ($Q$-polynomial) association…
