We give a construction of the two-dimensional tame symbol as the commutator of a group-like monoidal groupoid which is obtained from some group of k-linear operators acting in a two-dimensional local field and corresponds to some third…

As a part of our program for Geometric Arithmetic, we develop an arithmetic cohomology theory for number fields using theory of locally compact groups.

A triangular limit algebra A is isometrically isomorphic to the tensor algebra of a C*-correspondence if and only if its fundamental relation R(A) is a tree admitting a $Z^+_0$-valued continuous and coherent cocycle. For triangular limit…

A previously proposed two-step algorithm for calculating the expectation values of Chern-Simons graphs fails to determine certain crucial signs. The step which involves calculating tetrahedra by solving certain non- linear equations is…

We make cohomological computations related to the moduli space of genus three curves with symplectic level two structure by means of counting points over finite fields. In particular, we determine the cohomology groups of the quartic locus…

Given a diagram for a trisection of a 4-manifold $X$, we describe the homology and the intersection form of $X$ in terms of the three subgroups of $H_1(\Sigma;\mathbb{Z})$ generated by the three sets of curves and the intersection pairing…

$N$-complexes have been argued recently to be algebraic structures relevant to the description of higher spin gauge fields. $N$-complexes involve a linear operator $d$ that fulfills $d^N = 0$ and that defines a generalized cohomology. Some…

Let n>=3 be an odd integer. For any integer a prime to n, define the permutation gamma_{a,n} of {1,...,(n-1)/2} by gamma_{a,n}(x)=n-\dec{ax}_n if {ax}_n>=(n+1)/2, and {ax}_n if {ax}_n<=(n-1)/2, where {x}_n denotes the least nonnegative…

We propose an algebraic expression for $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_3)$ quantum $3j$ symbols (quantum Clebsch-Gordan coefficients) appearing in the decomposition of tensor product of symmetric representations. Our compact form will be useful to write…

We prove that for every nonempty set $\Sigma$ of integers bigger than $1$, which has at most three elements, there exists a numerical semigroup $T$ and an element $x$ of $T$ such that a natural number $n$ is the number of atoms in a…

We present new combinatorial proofs of Nicomachus's Theorem for the sum of the third powers of the first n natural numbers. The key step is that we define a 4-dimensional block which comprises unit hyper-cubes. In our first proof we…

We prove that a certain family of sums of products of three binomials has alternating behavior modulo a prime $p$. To accomplish this we rewrite these sums as signed sums of products of three binomials, the better to handle $p$, and we give…

The Thom-Boardman symbol was first introduced by Thom in 1956 to classify singularities of differentiable maps. It was later generalized by Boardman to a more general setting. Although the Thom-Boardman symbol is realized by a sequence of…

The (co)homology theory of n-ary (co)compositions is a functor associating to $n$-ary (co)composition a complex. We present unified approach to the cohomology theory of coassociative and Lie coalgebras and for $2n$-ary cocompositions. This…

We give an asymptotic formula for the minimum number of edges contained in triangles in a graph having n vertices and e edges. Our main tool is a generalization of Zykov's symmetrization method that can be applied for several graphs…

Since the beginning of the quest of hypercomplex numbers in the late eighteenth century, many hypercomplex number systems have been proposed but none of them succeeded in extending the concept of complex numbers to higher dimensions. This…

A rational linear combination of Chern numbers is an oriented diffeomorphism invariant of smooth complex projective varieties if and only if it is a linear combination of the Euler and Pontryagin numbers. In dimension at least three only…

We present a finite-dimensional and smooth formulation of string structures on spin bundles. It uses trivializations of the Chern-Simons 2-gerbe associated to this bundle. Our formulation is particularly suitable to deal with string…

A graph $G$ is defined encapsulating the number theoretic notion of the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic. We then provide a graph theoretic approach to the fundamental results on the coprimality of two natural numbers, through the use of…

A cosmological polytope is defined for a given Feynman diagram, and its canonical form may be used to compute the contribution of the Feynman diagram to the wavefunction of certain cosmological models. Given a subdivision of a polytope, its…
