We develop a symmetry-aware toolkit for finite mixtures whose components are only identifiable up to a finite \emph{folding} group action. The correct estimand is the multiset of parameter orbits in the quotient space, not an ordered list…

The vector field of a mixed-monotone system is decomposable via a decomposition function into increasing (cooperative) and decreasing (competitive) components, and this decomposition allows for, e.g., efficient computation of reachable sets…

Non-invertible symmetries have by now seen numerous constructions in higher dimensional Quantum Field Theories (QFT). In this paper we provide an in depth study of gauging 0-form symmetries in the presence of non-invertible symmetries. The…

We provide an exact mapping between the density functional of a binary mixture and that of the effective one-component fluid in the limit of infinite asymmetry. The fluid of parallel hard cubes is thus mapped onto that of parallel adhesive…

We introduce a notion of integration on the category of proper birational maps to a given variety $X$, with value in an associated Chow group. Applications include new birational invariants; comparison results for Chern classes and numbers…

The tetrablock is a domain in 3-dimensional complex space that meets 3-dimensional Euclidean space in a regular tetrahedron. It is shown to be inhomogeneous and its automorphism group is determined. A type of Schwarz lemma for the…

Solving functional equations given in \cite{nagy} for extensions of a group $A$ by a weighted Steiner loop $S$ we obtain concrete description for all loops with interesting weak associativity properties if the Steiner loop $S$ induces only…

A finite spin system invariant under a symmetry group G is a very illustrative example of the finite group action on a set of mappings f:X->Y. In the case of spin systems X is a set of spin carriers and Y contains 2s+1 z-components -s<=m<=s…

Wilhelm (2021) has recently defended a criterion for comparing structure of mathematical objects, which he calls Subgroup. He argues that Subgroup is better than SYM * , another widely adopted criterion. We argue that this is mistaken;…

The review considers statistical systems composed of several phases that are intermixed in space at mesoscopic scale and systems representing a mixture of several components of microscopic objects. These types of mixtures should be…

In this paper we continue our investigation of the global categorical symmetries that arise when gauging finite higher groups and their higher subgroups with discrete torsion. The motivation is to provide a common perspective on the…

We investigate mixing effects on the glass state of binary colloidal hard-sphere-like mixtures with large size asymmetry, at a constant volume fraction phi = 0.61. The structure, dynamics and viscoelastic response as a function of mixing…

We offer two novel characterizations of the Zeta distribution: first, as tractable continuous mixtures of Negative Binomial distributions (with fixed shape parameter, r > 0), and second, as a tractable continuous mixture of Poisson…

In the spirit of a previous study of the tetrahedral group $T \simeq A_4$, we discuss a minimalist scheme to derive the neutrino mixing matrix using the double tetrahedral group $T'$, the double cover of $T$. The new features are three…

It has previously been hypothesized, and supported with some experimental evidence, that deeper representations, when well trained, tend to do a better job at disentangling the underlying factors of variation. We study the following related…

The properties of composite black holes in the background of electric or magnetic flux tubes are analyzed, both when the black holes remain in static equilibrium and when they accelerate under a net external force. To this effect, we…

Collective organisation of patterns into ring-like configurations has been well-studied when patterns are subject to either weak or semi-strong interactions. However, little is known numerically or analytically about their formation when…

Particles that interact via a square-shoulder potential, consisting of an impenetrable hard core with an adjacent, repulsive, step-like corona, are able to self-organize in a surprisingly rich variety of rather unconventional ordered…
