We detail an explicit construction of ordinary irreducible representations for the family of finite groups $SL_2({\mathbb Z} /p^n {\mathbb Z})$ for odd primes $p$ and $n\geq 2$. For $n=2$, the construction is a complete set of irreducible…

L. Moret-Bailly constructed families $\mathfrak{C}\rightarrow \mathbb{P}^1$ of genus 2 curves with supersingular jacobian. In this paper we first classify the reducible fibers of a Moret-Bailly family using linear algebra over a quaternion…

We present explicit constructions of centrally symmetric 2-neighborly d-dimensional polytopes with about 3^{d/2} = (1.73)^d vertices and of centrally symmetric k-neighborly d-polytopes with about 2^{c_k d} vertices where c_k=3/20 k^2 2^k.…

In this paper we show the existence of a closed, embedded $\lambda$-hypersurfaces $\Sigma \subset \mathbb{R}^{2n}$. The hypersurface is diffeomorhic to $\mathbb{S}^{n-1} \times \mathbb{S}^{n-1} \times \mathbb{S}^1$ and exhibits $SO(n)…

In this paper we construct a family of simply connected, spin, non-complex, symplectic 4-manifolds which cover all but finitely many allowed lattice points $(\chi, c)$ lying in $0 \leq c \leq 8.76\chi$. Furthermore, as a corollary, we prove…

We study almost hypercomplex skew-Hermitian structures and almost quaternionic skew-Hermitian structures, as the geometric structures underlying $\mathsf{SO}^\ast(2n)$- and $\mathsf{SO}^\ast(2n)\mathsf{Sp}(1)$-structures, respectively. The…

We consider the shape reconstruction of a conductivity inclusion in two dimensions. We use the concept of Faber polynomials Polarization Tensors (FPTs) introduced in \cite{choi:2018:GME} to derive an exact shape recovery formula for an…

This paper shows that in dimensions n \geq 2 for any partition of the set of points in the standard n-sphere \sum_{i=0}^n x_i^2 =1 in R^{n+1} into (n+3) or more nonempty sets, there exists a hyperplane in R^{n+1} that intersects at least…

We propose a new algorithm for decoding Reed-Solomon codes (up to half the minimum distance) and for computing inverses in $F[x]/m(x)$. The proposed algorithm is similar in spirit and structure to the Berlekamp-Massey algorithm, but it…

Ellipsephic or Kempner-like harmonic series are series of inverses of integers whose expansion in base $B$, for some $B \geq 2$, contains no occurrence of some fixed digit or some fixed block of digits. A prototypical example was proposed…

For nearly a century, mathematicians have been developing techniques for constructing abelian automorphism groups of combinatorial objects, and, conversely, constructing combinatorial objects from abelian groups. While abelian groups are a…

Let $R$ be a closed, oriented topological 4-manifold whose Euler characteristic and signature are denoted by $e$ and $\sigma$. We show that if $R$ has order two $\pi_1$, odd intersection form, and $2e + 3\sigma \geq 0$, then for all but…

One of the very first results about designs over finite fields, by S. Thomas, is the existence of a cyclic 2-$(n,3,7)$ design over $\mathbb{F}_{2}$ for every integer $n$ coprime with 6. Here, by means of difference methods, we reprove and…

We consider the multi-frequency inverse source problem for the scalar Helmholtz equation in the plane. The goal is to reconstruct the source term in the equation from measurements of the solution on a surface outside the support of the…

We provide a mathematical proposal for the anomaly indicators of symmetries of (2+1)-d fermionic topological orders, and work out the consequences of our proposal in several nontrivial examples. Our proposal is an invariant of a super…

In this paper, we give a method to construct non-symmetric association schemes of class $3$ from non-symmetric association schemes of class $2$. This construction is a non-symmetric analogue of the construction of Taylor graphs as an…

Chiral Spin Liquids (CSL) based on spin-1/2 fermionic Projected Entangled Pair States (fPEPS) are considered on the square lattice. First, fPEPS approximants of Gutzwiller-projected Chern insulators (GPCI) are investigated by Variational…

We construct counterexamples to classical calculus facts such as the Inverse and Implicit Function Theorems in Scale Calculus -- a generalization of Multivariable Calculus to infinite dimensional vector spaces in which the…

A flipturn is an operation that transforms a nonconvex simple polygon into another simple polygon, by rotating a concavity 180 degrees around the midpoint of its bounding convex hull edge. Joss and Shannon proved in 1973 that a sequence of…

S. Cappell and J. Shaneson constructed a pair of inequivalent embeddings of $(n-1)$-spheres in homotopy $(n+1)$-spheres for every square matrix of order $n$ with special properties (a Cappell-Shaneson matrix). A Cappell-Shaneson polynomial…
