Closed geodesics associated with indefinite binary quadratic forms, or equivalently with real quadratic irrationals, have long been studied as geometric $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$-invariants. Building on the Birman-Williams approach to…
We describe an interesting interplay between symbolic dynamics, the structure of the Mandelbrot set, permutations of periodic points achieved by analytic continuation, and Galois groups of certain polynomials. Internal addresses are a…
Let $A_1$ and $A_2$ be polynomials of degree at least two over $\mathbb C$. We say that $A_1$ and $A_2$ are intertwined if the endomorphism $(A_1, A_2)$ of $\mathbb C\mathbb P^1 \times \mathbb C\mathbb P^1$ given by $(z_1, z_2) \mapsto…
A link in the 3-sphere is homotopically trivial, according to Milnor, if its components bound disjoint maps of disks in the 4-ball. This paper concerns the question of what spaces give rise to the same class of homotopically trivial links…
We discuss some applications of fusion rules and intertwining operators in the representation theory of cyclic orbifolds of the triplet vertex operator algebra. We prove that the classification of irreducible modules for the orbifold vertex…
Gordon and Litherland's paper $\textit{On the Signature of a link}$ introduced a bilinear form that simultaneously unifies both the quadratic forms of Trotter and Goeritz. This remarkable pairing of combinatorics and topology has had…
In this thesis quadratic and cubic algebras, which are extensions of SU(1,1) and SU(2) are studied in detail, with particular attention being given to their construction, their finite and infinite dimensional irreducible representations and…
This paper is the second in a series exploring the properties of a functor which assigns a homotopy double groupoid with connections to a Hausdorff space. We show that this functor satisfies a version of the van Kampen theorem, and so is a…
In this paper we derive intertwining relations for a broad class of conservative particle systems both in discrete and continuous setting. Using the language of point process theory, we are able to derive a natural framework in which…
Quadratic algebras are generalizations of Lie algebras; they include the symmetry algebras of 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions as special cases. The superintegrable systems are exactly solvable physical systems in classical…
The local intertwining relation is an identity that gives precise information about the action of normalized intertwining operators on parabolically induced representations. We prove several instances of the local intertwining relation for…
We give a rational surgery formula for the Casson-Walker invariant of a 2-component link in $S^{3}$ which is a generalization of Matveev-Polyak's formula. As application, we give more examples of non-hyperbolic L-space $M$ such that knots…
To investigate the degree $d$ connectedness locus, Thur\-ston studied \emph{$\sigma_d$-invariant laminations}, where $\sigma_d$ is the $d$-tupling map on the unit circle, and built a topological model for the space of quadratic polynomials…
Reynolds' theory of relational parametricity formalizes parametric polymorphism for System F, thus capturing the idea that polymorphically typed System F programs always map related inputs to related results. This paper shows that Reynolds'…
We introduce the model of two-dimensional continuous random interlacements, which is constructed using the Brownian trajectories conditioned on not hitting a fixed set (usually, a disk). This model yields the local picture of Wiener sausage…
We consider the popular and classical method of alternating projections for finding a point in the intersection of two closed sets. By situating the algorithm in a metric space, equipped only with well-behaved geodesics and angles (in the…
A string theoretic derivation is given for the conjecture of Hausel, Letellier, and Rodriguez-Villegas on the cohomology of character varieties with marked points. Their formula is identified with a refined BPS expansion in the stable pair…
Recently the problem of constructing a perfect Euler cuboid was related with three conjectures asserting the irreducibility of some certain three polynomials depending on integer parameters. In this paper a partial result toward proving the…
We prove a conjecture of Michel--Venkatesh on joinings of distinct Linnik problems, in the setting of simultaneous quaternionic embeddings of imaginary quadratic fields having sufficiently many small split primes. This splitting condition…
We study orthogonal polynomial systems arising from general pre-Hilbert inner products on polynomial spaces, beyond the classical framework of measures. To each such inner product we associate a canonical Laplacian defined from an abstract…
