Model sets (or cut and project sets) provide a familiar and commonly used method of constructing and studying nonperiodic point sets. Here we extend this method to situations where the internal spaces are no longer Euclidean, but instead…
This is an exposition of the known techniques for constructing $\Cal L_p$-spaces for $p\in (1,\infty)\setminus \{2\}$, including some unpublished work of Alspach. Isomorphic and complemented embedding relations between these spaces are also…
We construct non-trivial elements in the homotopy groups of the observer moduli space of positive sectional curvature metrics on $\mathbb{C}P^n$ and non-trivial elements in the homotopy groups of the observer moduli space of positive scalar…
The purpose of this new survey paper is, among other things, to collect in one place most of the articles on cone (abstract, K-metric) spaces, published after 2007. This list can be useful to young researchers trying to work in this part of…
This is a non-standard paper, containing some problems in set theory I have in various degrees been interested in. Sometimes with a discussion on what I have to say; sometimes, of what makes them interesting to me, sometimes the problems…
Integrals related to the surface area of arbitrary ellipsoids are derived, evaluated, and compared with each other and existing integrals found in the literature. We clarify the literature on the ellipsoid area problem, which dates back to…
A basic family of solenoids is discussed, especially from the point of view of analysis on metric spaces.
This short expository note gives an elementary introduction to the study of dynamics on certain moduli spaces, and in particular the recent breakthrough result of Eskin, Mirzakhani, and Mohammadi. We also discuss the context and…
These are notes on some algebraic geometry of complex projective curves, together with an application to studying the contact curves in CP^3 and the null curves in the complex quadric Q^3 in CP^4, related by the well-known Klein…
Unbounded composition operators in $L^2$-space over discrete measure spaces are investigated. Normal, formally normal and quasinormal composition operators acting in $L^2$-spaces of this kind are characterized.
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…
This expository paper explores the interaction of group ordering with topological questions, especially in dimensions 2 and 3. Among the topics considered are surfaces, braid groups, 3-manifolds and their structures such as foliations and…
The paper aims to give an account, both historical and geometric, on the diverse geography of rational parametrizations of moduli spaces related to curves. It is a contribution to the book Handbook of Moduli, editors G. Farkas and I.…
In this paper I present an elementary construction to prove that any proper metric space can arise as the asymptotic cone of another proper metric space. Furthermore I answer a question of Drutu and Sapir concerning slow ultrafilters.
These lecture notes (from the Second Autumn School in High Energy Physics and Quantum Field Theory, Yerevan 2014) cover a number of topics related to geometric quantization. Most of the material is presented from a physicist's point of…
The Tamari lattice and the associahedron provide methods of measuring associativity on a line. The real moduli space of marked curves captures the space of such associativity. We consider a natural generalization by considering the moduli…
This article was prepared in connection with the 2009 Barnett lecture at the University of Cincinnati, and deals with various classes of fractal sets and analysis on them.
Pairs of metrics in a two-dimensional linear vector space are considered, one of which is a Minkowski type metric. Their simultaneous diagonalizability is studied and canonical presentations for them are suggested.
This paper is devoted to certain applications of classical Whitney decomposition of the upper half space R^n+1 to various problems in harmonic function spaces in the upper half space.We obtain sharp new assertions on embeddings,distances…
These are lecture notes from a mini-course taught at Winterbraids XIII (Montpellier, 2024). The main character of these notes are curves in the complex projective plane, viewed from a topological perspective.
