We consider an involutive automorphism of the conformal algebra and the resulting symmetric space. We display a new action of the conformal group which gives rise to this space. The space has an intrinsic symplectic structure, a…
We show that the notions of homotopy epimorphism and homological epimorphism in the category of differential graded algebras are equivalent. As an application we obtain a characterization of acyclic maps of topological spaces in terms of…
We study how tensor products of representations decompose when restricted from a compact Lie algebra to one of its subalgebras. In particular, we are interested in tensor squares which are tensor products of a representation with itself. We…
We examine the geometry of loop spaces in derived algebraic geometry and extend in several directions the well known connection between rotation of loops and the de Rham differential. Our main result, a categorification of the geometric…
We present a novel method to perform numerical integration over curved polyhedra enclosed by high-order parametric surfaces. Such a polyhedron is first decomposed into a set of triangular and/or rectangular pyramids, whose certain faces…
Folding is emerging as a promising manufacturing process to transform flat materials into functional structures, offering efficiency by reducing the need for welding, gluing, and molding, while minimizing waste and enabling automation.…
We investigate the representation of symmetric polynomials as a sum of squares. Since this task is solved using semidefinite programming tools we explore the geometric, algebraic, and computational implications of the presence of discrete…
A spectral sequence calculating the homology groups of some spaces of maps equivariant under compact group actions is described. For the main example, we calculate the rational homology groups of spaces of even and odd maps $S^m \to S^M$,…
Using Nadler's Geometric Satake Equivalence for real reductive groups, we obtain a description of the equivariant homology of the loop space of splitting-rank symmetric spaces in terms of the relative dual group of the space. The…
The decomposability of a Cartesian product of two nondecomposable manifolds into products of lower dimensional manifolds is studied. For 3-manifolds we obtain an analog of a result due to Borsuk for surfaces, and in higher dimensions we…
Marginal polytopes are important geometric objects that arise in statistics as the polytopes underlying hierarchical log-linear models. These polytopes can be used to answer geometric questions about these models, such as determining the…
The weight systems of finite-dimensional representations of complex, simple Lie algebras exhibit patterns beyond Weyl-group symmetry. These patterns occur because weight systems can be decomposed into lattice polytopes in a natural way.…
In a previous work arXiv:physics/0611108v2, it was shown that the volume spanned by a molecular system in its conformational space can be effectively bounded by a polyhedral cone, this cone is described by means of a simple combinatorial…
Let M be the product of two compact Hamiltonian T-spaces X and Y. We present a formula for evaluating integrals on the symplectic reduction of M by the diagonal T action. At every regular value of the moment map for X x Y, the integral is…
In this paper we introduce various associative products on the homology of the space of knots and singular knots in $S^n$. We prove that these products are related through a desingularization map. We also compute some of these products and…
In this paper we construct an infinite family of homotopically rigid spaces. These examples are then used as building blocks to forge highly connected rational spaces with prescribed finite group of self-homotopy equivalences. They are also…
We investigate commutative analogues of Clifford algebras -- algebras whose generators square to $\pm1$ but commute, instead of anti-commuting as they do in Clifford algebras. We observe that commutativity allows for elegant results. We…
Multisymplectic geometry admits an operation that has no counterpart in symplectic geometry, namely, taking the product of two multisymplectic manifolds endowed with the wedge product of the multisymplectic forms. We show that there is an…
In this paper, we study a deformation theory of rigid analytic spaces. We develop a theory of cotangent complexes for rigid geometry which fits in with our deformations. We then use the complexes to give a cohomological description of…
We give a survey on classical and recent results on dual spaces of topological tensor products as well as some examples where these are used.
