An algebraic formalism for the study of interacting particle systems is developed. Particle processes are described in terms of the category theory. The problem for the unique description of these processes is discussed. Categories relevant…
These notes form an extended version of a minicourse delivered in Universite de Montreal (June 2002) within the framework of a NATO workshop ``Normal Forms, Bifurcations and Finiteness Problems in Differential Equations''. The focus is on…
These are some informal notes concerning topological vector spaces, with a brief overview of background material and basic notions, and emphasis on examples related to classical analysis.
In this small note we ask several questions which are relevant to the construction of the self-consistent neutrino theory of light. The previous confusions in such attempts are explained in the more detailed publication.
In earlier work we initiated a program to study relationships between finite groups and arithmetic geometric invariants of modular curves in a systematic way. In the present work we continue this program, with a focus on the two smallest…
The general term of the Poincare normalizing series is explicitly constructed for non-resonant systems of ODE's in a large class of equations. In the resonant case, a non-local transformation is found, which exactly linearizes the ODE's and…
These notes introduce some of the basic mathematical and physical tools neccessary for theoretical investigations into the thermodynamics properties of light in cavities. The notes were created while preparing for a project in this area…
The purpose of this short note is to show the interplay between math outreach and conducting original research, in particular how each can build off the other.
We give some experimental observations on the growth of the norm of certain matrices related to the Mertens function. The results obtained in these experiments convince us that linear algebra may help in the study of Mertens function and…
The intention of these notes is to give a mathematical account of how I believe students could be taught to think about functional programming languages and to explain how such languages work.
We describe and investigate a connection between the topology of isolated singularities of plane curves and the mutation equivalence, in the sense of cluster algebra theory, of the quivers associated with their morsifications.
In recent years, chain sequences and their perturbations have played a significant role in characterising the orthogonal polynomials both on the real line as well as on the unit circle. In this note, a particular disturbance of the chain…
The affinely regular polygons in certain planar sets are characterized. It is also shown that the obtained results apply to cyclotomic model sets and, additionally, have consequences in the discrete tomography of these sets.
This is a note on MacPherson's Chern class for algebraic stacks, based on a previous paper of the author [arXiv:math/0407348]. We also discuss other additive characteristic classes in the same manner.
This note is about invariants of moduli spaces of curves. It includes their intersection theory and cohomology. Our main focus in on the distinguished piece containing the so called tautological classes. These are the most natural classes…
This note concerns the interpolation problem with two parametrized families of splines related to polynomial spline interpolation. We address the questions of uniqueness and establish basic convergence rates for splines of the form $…
A new mneumonic device is shown to emerge in connection with O(7) numerical tensors exhibiting duality and reflecting the natural 7=(4+3) splitting of 7-dimensional space. Then Desargues' and Pappus' theorems are shown to be connected…
In this paper we deal with linear systems of P^3 through fat points. We consider the behavior of these systems under a cubo-cubic Cremona transformation that allows us to produce a class of special systems which we conjecture to be the only…
In this text we expose basic cases of some fundamental ideas and methods of topology. Namely, of homotopy, degree, fundamental group, covering, Whitehead invariant, etc. This is done by considering the elementary example: closed polygonal…
These notes are an introduction to knot theory from the perspective of surfaces. The notes cover fundamental concepts such as isotopies, Reidemeister moves, torus knots, and (orientable, connected) surfaces with one boundary component. They…
