We investigate $U(1)^{\,n}$ supersymmetric Born-Infeld Lagrangians with a second non-linearly realized supersymmetry. The resulting non-linear structure is more complex than the square root present in the standard Born-Infeld action, and…

In this work, we study functions that can be obtained by restricting a vectorial Boolean function $F \colon \mathbb{F}_2^n \rightarrow \mathbb{F}_2^n$ to an affine hyperplane of dimension $n-1$ and then projecting the output to an…

We prove that entire conformal curves $\mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^m$ fall into two classes: either the curve is affine or the average energy in a ball is strictly increasing for large radii and diverges to infinity. This rigidity…

In the literature, there are many APN-like functions that generalize the APN properties or are similar to APN functions, e.g. locally-APN functions, 0-APN functions or those with boomerang uniformity 2. In this paper, we study the problem…

We show that certain determinantal functions of multiple matrices, when summed over the symmetries of the cube, decompose into functions of the original matrices. These are shown to be true in complete generality; that is, no properties of…

This paper presents no new results; its goals are purely pedagogical. A special case of the Cartan Decomposition has found much utility in the field of quantum computing, especially in its sub-field of quantum compiling. This special case…

Hilbert famously showed that polynomials in n variables are not too complicated, in various senses. For example, the Hilbert Syzygy Theorem shows that the process of resolving a module by free modules terminates in finitely many (in fact,…

We prove that the description of cubic functors is a wild problem in the sense of the representation theory. On the contrary, we describe several special classes of such functors (2-divisible, weakly alternative, vector spaces and torsion…

For each $n\geq2$ we construct an unbounded closed pseudoconcave complete pluripolar set $\mathcal E$ in $\mathbb C^n$ which contains no analytic variety of positive dimension (we call it a \textit{Wermer type set}). We also construct an…

We describe here some new results concerning the Lorentzian Barrett-Crane model, a well-known spin foam formulation of quantum gravity. Generalizing an existing finiteness result, we provide a concise proof of finiteness of the partition…

Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be an open, connected subset of $\mathbb{R}^n$, and let $F\colon\Omega-\Omega\to\mathbb{C}$, where $\Omega-\Omega=\{x-y\colon x,y\in\Omega\}$, be a continuous positive definite function. We give necessary and…

Zhou 2013 introduced modified planar functions to describe $(2^n,2^n,2^n,1)$ relative difference sets $R$ as a graph of a function on the finite field $\F_{2^n}$, and pointed out that projections of $R$ are difference sets that can be…

We investigate the non-adiabatic processes occurring during the manipulations of Majorana qubits in 1-D semiconducting wires with proximity induced superconductivity. Majorana qubits are usually protected by the excitation gap. Yet,…

We provide two examples which show that for an affine semigroup ring the set of Cohen-Macaulay classes can be larger than the set of conic classes.

We construct homogeneous flat pseudo-Riemannian manifolds with non-abelian fundamental group. In the compact case, all homogeneous flat pseudo-Riemannian manifolds are complete and have abelian linear holonomy group. To the contrary, we…

We construct cubic Hamiltonians for quantum Gaudin models of affine types $\hat{\mathfrak{sl}}_M$. They are given by hypergeometric integrals of a form we recently conjectured in arXiv:1804.01480. We prove that they commute amongst…

Assume $n=2m\geq 2$ and let $F(x)=x^{d_1}+x^{d_2}$ be a binomial vectorial function over $\F_{2^n}$ possessing the maximal number (i.e. $2^n-2^m$) of bent components. Suppose the $2$-adic Hamming weights $\wt_2(d_1)$ and $\wt_2(d_2)$ are…

Cubic sevenfolds are examples of Fano manifolds of Calabi-Yau type. We study them in relation with the Cartan cubic, the $E_6$-invariant cubic in $\PP^{26}$. We show that a generic cubic sevenfold $X$ can be described as a linear section of…

We address the problem of which functions can arise as Dehn functions of K\"ahler groups. We explain why there are examples of K\"ahler groups with linear, quadratic, and exponential Dehn function. We then proceed to show that there is an…

We prove new non-existence results for vectorial monomial Dillon type bent functions mapping the field of order $2^{2m}$ to the field of order $2^{m/3}$. When $m$ is odd and $m>3$ we show that there are no such functions. When $m$ is even…
