By invoking the reflection functors introduced by Bernstein, Gelfand, and Ponomarev in 1973, in this paper we define a metric on the space of all zigzag modules of a given length, which we call the reflection distance. We show that the…

The action of the isometry algebra U_h(sl(2)) on the h-deformed Lobachevsky plane is found. The invariant distance and the invariant 2-point functions are shown to agree precisely with the classical ones. The propagator of the Laplacian is…

The aim of this article is to define and compare several distances (or metrics) between operators acting on different (separable) Hilbert spaces. We consider here three main cases of how to measure the distance between two bounded…

We introduce an estimator for distances in a compact Riemannian manifold based on graph Laplacian estimates of the Laplace-Beltrami operator. We upper bound the error in the estimate of manifold distances, or more precisely an estimate of a…

We formulate geodesics on a manifold in terms of a parallel transfer of a particle state vector transformed by local Lorentz and Yang-Mills symmetry groups. This formulation leads to an introduction of a canonical one-form the eigenvalues…

In metric geometry, the question of whether a distance metric is given by the length of curves can be decided via the existence of midpoints with respect to the metric $d$. We adapt a similar characterization to the setting of Lorentzian…

The relationship between spinors and Clifford (or geometric) algebra has long been studied, but little consistency may be found between the various approaches. However, when spinors are defined to be elements of the even subalgebra of some…

For pattern recognition like image recognition, it has become clear that each machine-learning dictionary data actually became data in probability space belonging to Euclidean space. However, the distances in the Euclidean space and the…

Riemann surfaces are among the simplest and most basic geometric objects. They appear as key players in many branches of physics, mathematics, and other sciences. Despite their widespread significance, how to compute distances between pairs…

This talk discusses various aspects of the structure of space-time presenting mechanisms leading to the explanation of the "rigidity" of the manifold and to the emergence of time, i.e. of the Lorentzian signature. The proposed ingredient is…

It is well-known that global hyperbolicity implies that the Lorentzian distance is finite and continuous. By carefully analysing the causes of discontinuity of the Lorentzian distance, we show that in most other respects the finiteness and…

We give an explicit bijective correspondence between between nonzero pairs of complex numbers, which we regard as spinors or spin vectors, and horospheres in 3-dimensional hyperbolic space decorated with certain spinorial directions. This…

In "Part I: Vector Analysis of Spinors", the author studied the geometry of two component spinors as points on the Riemann sphere in the geometric algebra of three dimensional Euclidean space. Here, these ideas are generalized to apply to…

The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the connection between the properties of the Gromov--Hausdorff distance and the Borsuk conjecture. The Borsuk number of a given bounded metric space $X$ is the infimum of cardinal numbers $n$…

In this note we give an alternative geometrical derivation of the results recently presented by Garcia-Godinez, Newman and Silva-Ortigoza in [1] on the class of all two-dimensional riemannian and lorentzian metrics from 2nd order ODEs which…

We show that Dirac 4-spinors admit an entirely equivalent formulation in terms of 2-spinors defined over the split-quaternions. In this formalism, a Lorentz transformation is represented as a $2 \times 2$ unitary matrix over the…

The metric Bezout Theorem proved in an earlier paper can be extended to a derivative version that compares derivatives of the algebraic distance of a point $\theta$ to two properly intersecting cycles in projective space with the…

We begin with a basic exploration of the (point-set topological) notion of Hausdorff closed limits in the spacetime setting. Specifically, we show that this notion of limit is well suited to sequences of achronal sets, and use this to…

We give a new perspective on the Lorentzian OPE inversion formula of arXiv:1703.00278, building on arXiv:2302.06469. We introduce an ``auxiliary'' fourpoint function that can be related to the traditionally defined ones via a Radon…

We revisit extending the Kolmogorov-Smirnov distance between probability distributions to the multidimensional setting and make new arguments about the proper way to approach this generalization. Our proposed formulation maximizes the…
