The aim of this short lecture series is to expose the students to the beautiful theory of lattices by, on one hand, demonstrating various basic ideas that appear in this theory and, on the other hand, formulating some of the celebrated…

These five lectures collect elementary facts about 4D supersymmetric theories with emphasis on N=1 supersymmetry, as well as the basic notions of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. Contents: I. From symmetries to supersymmetry; II. Basic…

These Lectures have been given at Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati in the month of March, 2005. The main idea was to provide our young collegues, who joined us in our attempts to understand the structure of $N$-extended supersymmetric…

In this review, we give a pedagogical introduction to a systematic framework for constructing and analyzing supersymmetric field theories on curved spacetime manifolds. The framework is based on the use of off-shell supergravity background…

Graph transformations definable in logic can be described using the notion of transductions. By understanding transductions as a basic embedding mechanism, which captures the possibility of encoding one graph in another graph by means of…

This text is aimed at undergraduates, or anyone else who enjoys thinking about shapes and numbers. The goal is to encourage the student to think deeply about seemingly simple things. The main objects of study are lines, squares, and the…

This is an expository introduction to simplicial sets and simplicial homotopy theory with particular focus on relating the combinatorial aspects of the theory to their geometric/topological origins. It is intended to be accessible to…

Elements of supergeometry are an ingredient in many contemporary classical and quantum field models involving odd fields. For instance, this is the case of SUSY field theory, BRST theory, supergravity. Addressing to theoreticians, these…

The thesis is devoted to abstract, geometric and symmetric aspects of modern elementary particle theories. A new direction in constructing supersymmetric and superstring models based on consequent and strong consideration and inclusion of…

These notes contain a survey of some aspects of the theory of graded differential algebras and of noncommutative differential calculi as well as of some applications connected with physics. They also give a description of several new…

Group theory involves the study of symmetry, and its inherent beauty gives it the potential to be one of the most accessible and enjoyable areas of mathematics, for students and non-mathematicians alike. Unfortunately, many students never…

This lecture series consists of mostly independent three parts: Part 1: a tour of basic 4d N=1 supersymmetric dynamics, covering the pure super Yang-Mills, the Seiberg duality for classical groups, the supersymmetric index on S^3, and the…

These lectures contain an introduction to the theory and practice of weak-scale supersymmetry. They begin with a discussion of the hierarchy problem and the motivation for weak-scale supersymmetry. They continue by developing the coset…

Introductory lectures on the phenomenology of the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. The emphasis is on general signatures for supersymmetry and on the motivation for constructing supersymmetric models. These lectures are intended for…

These lecture notes are intended to give a modest impulse to anyone willing to start or pursue a journey into the theory of Vertex Algebras by reading one of Kac's or Lepowsky-Li's books. Therefore, the primary goal is to provide required…

In this paper we develop a structure called Link Algebra, in which we present a Set with two binary operations and an axiom system developed from the study of graph theory and set/antiset theory, sowing main theorems and definitions. Once…

The main purpose of this paper is to present a new approach to logic or what we will call superlogic. This approach constitutes a new way of looking at the connection between quantum mechanics and logic. It is a {\it geometrisation} of the…

The purpose of this note is twofold. First, we survey results on the construction of large class groups of number fields by specialization of finite covers of curves. Then we give examples of applications of these techniques.

These are lecture notes on the algebraic approach to regular languages. The classical algebraic approach is for finite words; it uses semigroups instead of automata. However, the algebraic approach can be extended to structures beyond…

In these lectures we discuss some elementary concepts in connection with the theory of symmetric spaces applied to ensembles of random matrices. We review how the relationship between random matrix theory and symmetric spaces can be used in…
