The topic of this survey are geometric functionals of a Boolean model (in Euclidean space) governed by a stationary Poisson process of convex grains. The Boolean model is a fundamental benchmark of stochastic geometry and continuum…
What is the best representation for doing euclidean geometry on computers? These notes from a SIGGRAPH 2019 short course entitled "Geometric algebra for computer graphics" introduce projective geometric algebra (PGA) as a modern framework…
On the occasion of the Centennial of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, Carnegie Observatories held a series of four astrophysics symposia in Pasadena from October 2002 to February 2003. The topics of the symposia were: (1) Coevolution…
James Lee Fergason (1934 - 2008) focused his research on the liquid crystals. His studies correspond to a relevant part of the history of soft matter science and technology of liquid crystals. Here a discussion of some of his researches.
My thesis describes the life and work of the mathematician Major Percy Alexander MacMahon (1854-1929). His early life as as a soldier in the Royal Artillery and the events which led to him embarking on a career in mathematical research and…
Using the latest experimental data, performed by ATLAS Collaboration and within the framework of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, we presented the calculations for cross sections times branching fractions, $\sigma\times Br$, as a…
A short review of experimental and theoretical results on the large angle cross sections \gamma\gamma --> {two mesons} and the form factors \gamma*\gamma --> P={pi, \eta, \eta'} is given.
This is an expanded version of a series of two lectures given at the IMA summer program "Symmetries and Overdetermined Systems of Partial Differential Equations". The main part of the article describes the Riemannian version of the…
Using a dataset of $(27.12\pm 0.14)\times 10^{8}$ $\psi(3686)$ events collected by the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII collider, we report the first observation of the decay $\psi(3686)\to\Sigma^{0}\bar{\Sigma}^{0}\omega$ with a…
Among the O(alpha_s tan beta) contributions to the Wilson coefficients C_7 and C_8, relevant for the decay bar{B} -> X_s gamma, those induced by two-loop diagrams with charged-Higgs-boson exchange and squark-gluino corrections are…
Research in cosmology traditionally divided into two separate lines. On the one hand was the search for initial conditions: the cosmological parameters H, Omega, Omega_b, and Lambda, and the power spectrum P(k). On the other hand was the…
Poisson representation techniques provide a powerful method for mapping master equations for birth/death processes -- found in many fields of physics, chemistry and biology -- into more tractable stochastic differential equations. However,…
This article, produced as a result of the Symposium on Statistical Inference, is an introduction to the literature on the function of expertise, judgment, and choice in the practice of statistics and scientific research. In particular,…
Until recently precision electroweak computations were fundamentally uncertain due to lack of knowledge about the existence of the Standard Model Higgs boson and its mass. For this reason substantial calculational machinery had to be…
The cover of the SIAM Journal on Applied Algebra and Geometry shows seven pictures. We describe these pictures and discuss the topics they represent. About the Author: Anna Seigal is a graduate student at UC Berkeley working in applied…
Dedicated to Solomon Marcus, the current paper continues a recent series about our meetings. Trying to recreate the spirit of those meetings, we first propose a discussion which started as a high-school problem. The main part of the current…

These lectures on Higgs boson collider searches were presented at TASI 2006. I first review the Standard Model searches: what LEP did, prospects for Tevatron searches, the program planned for LHC, and some of the possibilities at a future…
Remarks at the Irving Kaplansky Memorial about a collaboration during the early period of the renewal of contacts between mathematicians and theoretical physicists.
The authors provide a survey of certain aspects of their joint work with the late M. K. Vamanamurthy. Most of the results are simple to state and deal with special functions, a topic of research where S. Ramanujan's contributions are…
