This survey describes some useful properties of the local homology of abstract simplicial complexes. Although the existing literature on local homology is somewhat dispersed, it is largely dedicated to the study of manifolds, submanifolds,…
We continue our study on infinitesimal lifting properties of maps between locally noetherian formal schemes started in math.AG/0604241. In this paper, we focus on some properties which arise specifically in the formal context. In this vein,…
This paper summarizes our rather lengthy paper, "Algebra of the Infrared: String Field Theoretic Structures in Massive ${\cal N}=(2,2)$ Field Theory In Two Dimensions," and is meant to be an informal, yet detailed, introduction and summary…
This is a slightly modified version of the survey article. Minor changes to the text and the references have been made.
This note is a survey of $J$-spaces.
We describe and illustrate the local neighbourhoods of vertices and edges in the (2, 2)-isogeny graph of principally polarized abelian surfaces, considering the action of automorphisms. Our diagrams are intended to build intuition for…
I describe the manifestation of the non-Euclidean geometry in the behavior of collective observables of some complex physical systems. Specifically, I consider the formation of equilibrium shapes of plants and statistics of sparse random…
This is a survey paper about a selection of results in complex algebraic geometry that appeared in the recent and less recent litterature, and in which rational homogeneous spaces play a prominent r{\^o}le. This selection is largely…
The work consists of solutions of metric problems for convex and finite subsets of geodesic spaces.
This survey paper aims at providing a "literary" anthology of mathematical morphology on graphs. It describes in the English language many ideas stemming from a large number of different papers, hence providing a unified view of an active…
We examine the local geometry of affine surfaces which are locally symmetric. There are 6 non-isomorphic local geometries. We realize these examples as Type A, Type B, and Type C geometries using a result of Opozda and classify the relevant…
This note contains new short proofs of known results on Speh representations of inner forms of $GL_n$ over a local non archimedean field of any characteristic.
In this text, we outline a theory of schemes associated with a site, which generalizes a variety of geometries, such as manifolds, schemes, analytic spaces, simplicial complexes, and more. We present an abstract process of gluing model…
This is a brief review, in relatively non-technical terms, of recent advances in the theory of random field geometry. These advances have provided a collection of explicit new formulae describing mean values of a variety of geometric…
This work introduces author's approach to harmonic analysis on algebraic groups over functional two-dimensional local fields. For a two-dimensional local field a Hecke algebra which is formed by operators which integrate…
We discuss the study of topological characteristics of random fields that are used for numerical simulation of oil and gas reservoirs and numerical algorithms (see arXiv:1302.3669), for computing such characteristics, for which we…
This is a survey on the various notions of Kodaira dimension in low dimensional topology. The focus is on progress after the 2006 survey [78].
We make a systematic study of the infinitesimal lifting conditions of a pseudo finite type map of noetherian formal schemes. We recover the usual general properties in this context, and, more importantly, we uncover some new phenomena. We…
We study varieties defined over nonstandard fields using techniques of nonstandard mathematics.
In this paper we study geodesic mappings of $n$-dimensional surfaces of revolution. From the general theory of geodesic mappings of equidistant spaces we specialize to surfaces of revolution and apply the obtained formulas to the case of…
