Knot mosaic theory was introduced by Lomonaco and Kauffman in the paper on `Quantum knots and mosaics' to give a precise and workable definition of quantum knots, intended to represent an actual physical quantum system. A knot (m,n)-mosaic…
We explain the observation of clusters in the tunneling resonance spectra of small metallic particles of few nanometer size. Each cluster of resonances is identified with one excited single--electron state of the metal particle, shifted as…
A recent experimental discovery involving the spin structure of electrons in a cold one-dimensional magnet points to a validation of a Zamolodchikov model involving the exceptional Lie group $E_8$. The model predicts 8 particles and…
The goal of this article is to clarify the relationship between the topos of triads and the neo-Riemannian PLR-group. To do this, we first develop some theory of generalized interval systems: 1) we prove the well known fact that every pair…
In this paper we introduce the notion of a spherical knot mosaic where a knot is represented by tiling the surface of a topological 2-sphere with 11 canonical knot mosaic tiles and show this gives rise to several novel knot (and link)…
This paper deals with the algebraic structure of the sequence of harmonics when combined with equal temperaments. Fractals and the golden ratio appear surprisingly on the way. The sequence of physical harmonics is an increasingly enumerable…
Starting from the work by Jones on representations of Thompson's group $F$, subgroups of $F$ with interesting properties have been defined and studied. One of these subgroups is called the $3$-colorable subgroup $\mathcal{F}$, which…
Motivated by problems on the \'etale cohomology of Rapoport--Zink spaces and their generalizations, as well as Fargues's geometrization conjecture for the local Langlands correspondence, we develop a six functor formalism for the \'etale…
The lattice of monotone triangles $(\mathfrak{M}_n,\le)$ ordered by entry-wise comparisons is studied. Let $\tau_{\min}$ denote the unique minimal element in this lattice, and $\tau_{\max}$ the unique maximum. The number of $r$-tuples of…
This paper explores a particular statistical model on 6-valent graphs with special properties which turns out to be invariant with respect to certain Roseman moves if the graph is the singular point graph of a diagram of a 2-knot. The…
Topological semimetals have emerged as an important class of quantum materials with novel electronic responses and unconventional transport phenomena. Among them, nodal-line semimetals are distinguished by band crossings that extend along…
Quantum triangles can work as interferometers. Depending on their geometric size and interactions between paths, "beats" {\it and/or} "steps" patterns are observed. We show that when inter-level distances between level positions in quantum…
The paper deals with the question of homometry in the dihedral groups $D_{n}$ of order $2n$. These groups have the specificity to be non-commutative. It leads to a new approach as compared as the one used in the traditional framework of the…
Much has been written about the golden ratio $\phi=\frac{1+\sqrt{5}}{2}$ and this strange number appears mysteriously in many mathematical calculations. In this article, we review the appearance of this number in the graph theory. More…
We define a new congruence relation on the set of integers, leading to a group similar to the multiplicative group of integers modulo $n$. It makes use of a symmetry almost omnipresent in modular multiplications and halves the number of…
A chord diagram refers to a set of chords with distinct endpoints on a circle. The intersection graph of a chord diagram $\cal C$ is defined by substituting the chords of $\cal C$ with vertices and by adding edges between two vertices…
The connection between spherical harmonics and symmetric tensors is explored. For each spherical harmonic, a corresponding traceless symmetric tensor is constructed. These tensors are then extended to include nonzero traces, providing an…
Observations suggest that our universe is spatially flat on the largest observable scales. Exactly six different compact orientable three-dimensional manifolds admit flat metrics. These six manifolds are therefore the most natural choices…
Following the ideas of von Helmholtz and Plomp-Levelt, an algorithm for calculating the total dissonance of complex sounds, free from logical inconsistencies and useful for comparing different chords, is proposed. The method is tested by…
This is survey about the classical knot concordance group, prepared for an upcoming handbook of knot theory. Topics include: the basic definitions of concordance; the theory of algebraic concordance as developed by Levine; the theory of…
