We show the fundamental theorems of curves and surfaces in the 3-dimensional Heisenberg group and find a complete set of invariants for curves and surfaces respectively. The proofs are based on Cartan's method of moving frames and Lie group…
Quaternionic Clifford analysis is a recent new branch of Clifford analysis, a higher dimensional function theory which refines harmonic analysis and generalizes to higher dimension the theory of holomorphic functions in the complex plane.…
We quantise orbits of the adjoint group action on elements of the sl(2,R) Lie algebra. The path integration along elliptic slices is akin to the coadjoint orbit quantization of compact Lie groups, and the calculation of the characters of…
We present a survey of recent results, scattered in a series of papers that appeared during past five years, whose common denominator is the use of cubic relations in various algebraic structures. Cubic (or ternary) relations can represent…
The most familiar formalism for the description of geometry applicable to physics comprises operations among 4-component vectors and complex real numbers; few people realize that this formalism has indeed 32 degrees of freedom and can thus…
For several objects of interest in geometric complexity theory, namely for the determinant, the permanent, the product of variables, the power sum, the unit tensor, and the matrix multiplication tensor, we introduce and study a fundamental…
This paper gives insight into intriguing connections between two apparently unrelated theories: the theory of skein modules of 3-manifolds and the theory of representations of groups into special linear groups of 2 by 2 matrices. Let R be a…
We give a non-technical summary of the classification program, very dear to the hearts of both authors, of four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ superconformal field theories (SCFTs) based on the study of their Coulomb branch geometries. We…
This paper explains how, following the representation of 3D crystallographic space groups in Clifford's geometric algebra, it is further possible to similarly represent the 162 so called subperiodic groups of crystallography in Clifford's…
We introduce a concept of an embedding of a quadratic space in an associative algebra. The general properties of such embeddings are analyzed by linking it to the Clifford algebra. Conversely, there isa simple description of the standard…
We develop a notion of rank one properly convex domains (or Hilbert geometries) in the real projective space. This is in the spirit of rank one non-positively curved Riemannian manifolds and CAT(0) spaces. We define rank one isometries for…
Real Clifford algebras play a fundamental role in the eight real Altland-Zirnbauer symmetry classes and the classification tables of topological phases. Here, we present another elegant realization of real Clifford algebras in the…
Some connections between quadratic forms over the field of two elements, Clifford algebras of quadratic forms over the real numbers, real graded division algebras, and twisted group algebras will be highlighted. This allows to revisit real…
In the past few years, the unifying frameworks of 4-dimensional Chern-Simons theory and affine Gaudin models have allowed for the systematic construction of a large family of integrable $\sigma$-models. These models depend on the data of a…
In this paper, we provide an invariant formulation of completely integrable $CP^{N-1}$ Euclidean sigma models in two dimensions defined on the Riemann sphere $S^2$. The scaling invariance is explicitly taken into account by expressing all…
We give a fully explicit description of Lie algebra derivatives (generalizing raising and lowering operators) for representations of SL(3,R) in terms of a basis of Wigner functions. This basis is natural from the point of view of principal…
Possible quantum mechanical corollaries of changing the vectorial geometrical model of the physical space, extending it twice, in order to describe its spinor structure (in other terminology and emphasis it is known as the Hopf's bundle)…
We construct C-algebras for a class of surfaces that are inverse images of certain polynomials of arbitrary degree. By using the directed graph associated to a matrix, the representation theory can be understood in terms of ``loop'' and…
This is a simple way rigorously to construct Grassmann, Clifford and Geometric Algebras, allowing degenerate bilinear forms, infinite dimension, using fields or certain modules (characteristic 2 with limitation) - and characterize the…
Clifford's geometric algebra has enjoyed phenomenal development over the last 60 years by mathematicians, theoretical physicists, engineers and computer scientists in robotics, artificial intelligence and data analysis, introducing a myriad…
