We construct an integer polynomial whose coefficients enumerate the Kauffman states of the two-bridge knot with Conway's notation C(n,r).
This paper is an introduction to the state sum model for the Alexander-Conway polynomial that was introduced in the the author's book "Formal Knot Theory" (Princeton University Press, 1983). The article outlines how Alexander's original…
We consider Stokes' conjecture concerning the shape of the extremal two-dimensional water wave. By new geometric methods including a nonlinear frequency formula, we prove Stokes' conjecture in the original variables. Our results do not rely…
This mostly expository paper centers on recently proved conjectures in two areas: A) A conjecture of A. Oppenheim on the values of real indefinite quadratic forms at integral points. B) Conjectures of Dani, Raghunathan, and Margulis on…
We argue that an effective field theory of local fluid elements captures the constraints on hydrodynamic transport stemming from the presence of quantum anomalies in the underlying microscopic theory. Focussing on global current anomalies…
We present a statistical model of a meandering river on an alluvial plane which is motivated by the physical non-linear dynamics of the river channel migration and by describing heterogeneity of the terrain by noise. We study the dynamics…
In the 1990s, J.H. Conway published a combinatorial-geometric method for analyzing integer-valued binary quadratic forms (BQFs). Using a visualization he named the "topograph," Conway revisited the reduction of BQFs and the solution of…
This paper is a study of the relationship between two constructions associated with Cartan geometries, both of which involve Lie algebroids: the Cartan algebroid, due to [Blaom A.D., Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 358 (2006), 3651-3671], and…
The structure of classical non-linear $\cw$ algebras closing on rational functions is analyzed both for the ordinary and the supersymmetric case. Such algebras appear as a result of a coset construction. Their relevance to physical…
Let $K$ be a link of Conway's normal form $C(m)$, $m \geq 0$, or $C(m,n)$ with $mn\textgreater{}0$, and let $D$ be a trigonal diagram of $K.$ We show that it is possible to transform $D$ into an alternating trigonal diagram, so that all…
We provide a simple construction of the Anderson operator in dimensions two and three. This is done through its quadratic form. We rely on an exponential transform instead of the regularity structures or paracontrolled calculus which are…
We offer a reader-friendly introduction to the attracting edge problem (also known as the "triangle conjecture") and its most general current solution of Limic and Tarr\`es (2007). Little original research is reported; rather this article…
We give a presentation of Conway's surreal numbers focusing on the connections with transseries and Hardy fields and trying to simplify when possible the existing treatments.
This paper concerns the \textbf{abstract geometry of numbers}: namely the pursuit of certain aspects of geometry of numbers over a suitable class of normed domains. (The standard geometry of numbers is then viewed as geometry of numbers…
The contraction and Jordan-Schwinger construction connect the $su(2)$ and the heisenberg algebra, going in oposite directions. This persists in the q-deformed cases, but in a slightly different way. This work investigates this further,…
This paper presents an under-appreciated way to conceptualize stationary black holes, which we call the river model. The river model is mathematically sound, yet simple enough that the basic picture can be understood by non-experts. %that…
The direct or algorithmic approach for the Jacobian problem, consisting of the direct construction of the inverse polynomials is proposed. The so called principle and derived Jacobi conditions are proposed and discussed. The algorithmic…
Stability, bifurcation properties, and the spatiotemporal behavior of different nonlinear combination structures of spiral vortices in the counter rotating Taylor-Couette system are investigated by full numerical simulations and by coupled…
We prove an upper bound for the length of an arithmetic progression represented by an irreducible integral binary quadratic form or a norm form, which depends only on the form and the progression's common difference. For quadratic forms,…
A notion of duality of weight systems which corresponds to Batyrev's toric mirror symmetry is given. Explicit duality on the (1,1)-cohomology of K3 surfaces which are minimal models of toric hypersurfaces is constructed using monomial…
