We introduce a model of interacting bosons exhibiting an infinite collection of fractal symmetries -- termed "Pascal's triangle symmetries" -- which provides a natural $U(1)$ generalization of a spin-(1/2) system with Sierpinski triangle…
We will consider close-to-convexity of the metric balls defined by the quasihyperbolic metric and the $j$-metric. We will show that the $j$-metric balls with small radii are close-to-convex in general subdomains of $\Rn$ and the…
The present work considers the properties of classes of generally convex sets in the plane known as $1$-semiconvex and weakly $1$-semiconvex. More specifically, the examples of open and closed weakly $1$-semiconvex but non $1$-semiconvex…
In this paper we study the set of values of quadratic form at points of a cut and project set. We will establish conditions which ensure that the set of values is dense. Our methods involve homogeneous dynamics and we will prove a orbit…
In analogy to the chiral-linear multiplet correspondence we establish a relationship between the 3-form (or gaugino condensate) multiplet and a coupled non-minimal (0,1/2) multiplet, illustrated by a simple explicit example.
Hyperuniform systems, which include crystals, quasicrystals and special disordered systems, have attracted considerable recent attention, but rigorous analyses of the hyperuniformity of quasicrystals have been lacking because the support of…
The 1-2 model on the hexagonal lattice is a model of statistical mechanics in which each vertex is constrained to have degree either $1$ or $2$. There are three types of edge, and three corresponding parameters $a$, $b$, $c$. It is proved…
The kinematic end-point technique for measuring the masses of supersymmetric particles in R-Parity conserving models at hadron colliders is re-examined with a focus on exploiting additional constraints arising from correlations in invariant…
In this note we characterize isoperimetric regions inside almost-convex cones. More precisely, as in the case of convex cones, we show that isoperimetric sets are given by intersecting the cone with a ball centered at the origin.
Relying on rays, we search for submodules of a module V over a supertropical semiring on which a given anisotropic quadratic form is quasilinear. Rays are classes of a certain equivalence relation on V, that carry a notion of convexity,…
One-dimensional sigma-models with N supersymmetries are considered. For conventional supersymmetries there must be N-1 complex structures satisfying a Clifford algebra and the constraints on the target space geometry can be formulated in…
The spherical ensemble is a well-known ensemble of N repulsive points on the two-dimensional sphere, which can realized in various ways (as a random matrix ensemble, a determinantal point process, a Coulomb gas, a Quantum Hall state...).…
This article is concerned with the approximation of unbounded convex sets by polyhedra. While there is an abundance of literature investigating this task for compact sets, results on the unbounded case are scarce. We first point out the…
The scattering properties of the non-linear $O(3)$ model in (2+1)-D, modified by the addition of both a potential-like term and a Skyrme-like term, are considered. Most of the work is numerical. The skyrmion-scattering is found to be…
Parallel to the main results of [13] and [14], which explore the equivalence between prox-regularity, the exterior sphere condition, and $S$-convexity, we present novel characterizations of the $r$-strong convexity property, namely, of the…
We study spherical quadrilaterals whose angles are odd multiples of pi/2, and the equivalent accessory parameter problem for the Heun equation. We obtain a classification of these quadrilaterals up to isometry. For given angles, there are…
The notions of quasiconvexity, Wright convexity and convexity for functions defined on a metric Abelian group are introduced. Various characterizations of such functions, the structural properties of the functions classes so obtained are…
The quasi-unit cell picture describes the atomic structure of quasicrystals in terms of a single, repeating cluster which overlaps neighbors according to specific overlap rules. In this paper, we discuss the precise relationship between a…
The use of discrete material representation in numerical models is advantageous due to the straightforward way it takes into account material heterogeneity and randomness, and the discrete and orientated nature of cracks. Unfortunately, it…
The shape of crystalline nanoparticles (NP) can often be described by polyhedra with flat facet surfaces. Thus, structural studies of polyhedral bodies can help to describe geometric details of NPs. Here we consider compact polyhedra of…
