相关论文: Kummer surfaces: 200 years of study

What is the Higgs boson telling us? What else is there? How do we find it? This talk discusses these current topics in particle physics in the wake of the Higgs discovery, with particular emphasis on the discrete symmetries CP and R-parity,…

The toric surfaces for octonions and related objects are discussed.

In the century since Einstein's anno mirabilis of 1905, our concept of the Universe has expanded from Kapteyn's flattened disk of stars only 10 kpc across to an observed horizon about 30 Gpc across that is only a tiny fraction of an…

Summary and outlook presented at the 9th International Conference on the Structure of Baryons (BARYONS 2002), Jefferson Lab, March 3-8, 2002

These proceedings contain research results presented during the Workshops "Quark Matter in Astro- and Particle Physics" held at the University of Rostock, November 27-29, 2000 and "Dynamical Aspects of the QCD Phase Transition" held at the…

On the twentieth anniversary of the observation of the top quark, we trace our understanding of this heaviest of all known particles from the prediction of its existence, through the searches and discovery, to the current knowledge of its…

This is an informal paper presenting historical results around the recent paper of the author about Lang's Conjecture and torsion of elliptic curves. This paper also discusses a few aspects of the proof.

A chapter in a book"50 years of QGP" An extended summary of the field can be found in large books and reviews, e.g., my take in Ref.~\cite{Shuryak:2024zrh}. It is hard to compress its 600+ pages and 50+ years of research to a few given…

We present the results of two studies on how individuals interact with each other during a international, interdisciplinary scientific conference. We first show that contact activity is highly variable across the two conferences and between…

I make some remarks on events leading to the final formulation of quantum chromodynamics, stimulated by the ``Search and Discovery''article by Bertram Schwarzschild in the December, 2004 {\it Physics Today}. The following text and…

This is a written version of a series of lectures aimed at undergraduate students in astrophysics/particle theory/particle experiment. We summarize the important progress made in recent years towards understanding high energy astrophysical…

The first papers on neutrino oscillations are shortly reviewed.

This text grew out of some lecture notes prepared by the author in the occasion of a series of three lectures during the workshop "Young mathematicians in dynamical systems" organized by Francoise Dal'bo, Louis Funar, Boris Hasselblatt and…

To teach the topic of Dark Matter in Galaxies to undergraduate and PhD students is not easy, one reason being that the scientific community has not converged yet to a generally shared knowledge. We argue that the teaching of this topic and…

In this closing talk of the DIS 2021 Workshop, I review some of the lessons we've learned about quantum chromodynamics, and reflect on what we may hope to learn in the coming years.

We discuss several geometric features of a Kummer surface associated with a (1,2)-polarized abelian surface defined over the field of complex numbers. In particular, we show that any such Kummer surface can be modeled as the double cover of…

This is a survey paper on algebraic surfaces in positive characteristic based on a series of lectures that the author gave at the University of Edinburgh in March 2023. It is focused on certain positive characteristic phenomena like…

Open questions on the fundamental nature of the strong force endure and the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is a once-in-a-generation laboratory elucidating its quantum origins. This document summarizes the plenary overview talk titled "QCD…

We consider closed immersed hypersurfaces in $\R^{3}$ and $\R^4$ evolving by a class of constrained surface diffusion flows. Our result, similar to earlier results for the Willmore flow, gives both a positive lower bound on the time for…

Results on observables related to hard scattering processes as presented at this conference are reviewed. This includes in particular measurements related to jet quenching, a phenomenon which has been predicted as a signature for the hot…
