In this note, we initiate a study of the finite-dimensional representation theory of a class of algebras that correspond to noncommutative deformations of compact surfaces of arbitrary genus. Low dimensional representations are investigated…
Let R be a complete discrete valuation ring, S=R[[u]] and n a positive integer. The aim of this paper is to explain how to compute efficiently usual operations such as sum and intersection of sub-S-modules of S^d. As S is not principal, it…
The scattering of scalar waves by a set of scatterers is considered. It is proven that the scattered field can be represented as an integral supported by any smooth surface enclosing the scatterers. This is a generalization of the series…
We examine the solution generating symmetries by which Lunin and Maldacena have generated the gravity duals of beta-deformations of certain field theories. We identify the O(2,2,R) matrix, which acts on the background matrix E=g+B, where g…
We propose a simple architecture to address unpaired image-to-image translation tasks: style or class transfer, denoising, deblurring, deblocking, etc. We start from an image autoencoder architecture with fixed weights. For each task we…
Machine learning has the potential to aid our understanding of phase structures in lattice quantum field theories through the statistical analysis of Monte Carlo samples. Available algorithms, in particular those based on deep learning,…
Analogues of Iwasawa invariants in the context of 3-dimensional topology have been studied by M.~Morishita and others. In this paper, following the dictionary of arithmetic topology, we formulate an analogue of Kida's formula on…
Incorporating geometric transformations that reflect the relative position changes between an observer and an object into computer vision and deep learning models has attracted much attention in recent years. However, the existing proposals…
Einstein had to learn the mathematics of Lorentz transformations in order to complete his covariant formulation of Maxwell's equations. The mathematics of Lorentz transformations, called the Lorentz group, continues playing its important…
Collective coherent scattering of laser light by an ensemble of polarizable point particles creates long range interactions, whose properties can be tailored by choice of injected laser powers, frequencies and polarizations. We use a…
The Dedekind tessellation -- the regular tessellation of the upper half-plane by the Mobius action of the modular group -- is usually viewed as a system of ideal triangles. We change the focus from triangles to circles and give their…
A hard hadron-collider event is treated here as a single geometric object - the kinematics and the discrete object-type labels of all reconstructed final-state particles encoded in one multivector $\evMV\in\Cl(1,3)\otimes\Vflav$ - rather…
The multiple images of lensed quasars provide evidence on the mass distribution of the lensing galaxy. The lensing invariants are constructed from the positions of the images, their parities and their fluxes. They depend only on the…
The richness of natural images makes the quest for optimal representations in image processing and computer vision challenging. The latter observation has not prevented the design of image representations, which trade off between efficiency…
Matrix elements of spinor and principal series representations of the Lorentz group are studied in the basis of complex angular momentum (helicity basis). It is shown that matrix elements are expressed via hyperspherical functions…
We consider a one-parametric series of left-invariant Lorentzian structures on the universal covering of the Lie group SL(2,R). These structures have SO(1,1)-symmetry and they are deformations of the anti-de Sitter Lorentzian manifold. We…
Under the natural action of the pure mapping class group of a surface of genus at least three, we show that any global fixed point in the low-dimensional deformation space of the surface group corresponds to the trivial representation. A…
We consider several aspects of the generalized multi-plane gravitational lens theory, in which light rays from a distant source are affected by several main deflectors, and in addition by the tidal gravitational field of the large-scale…
We study a Lie algebra $\mathcal A_{a_1,\ldots,a_{n-1}}$ of deformed skew-symmetric $n \times n$ matrices endowed with a Lie bracket given by a choice of deformed symmetric matrix. The deformations are parametrized by a sequence of real…
In this work, we use the fact that kinematics of light propagation in a non-dispersive medium associated with a bi-metric spacetime is expressed by means of a 1-parameter family of contact transformations. We present a general technique to…
