This paper represents a first attempt at unifying two promising models that attempt to explain the origin of the internal symmetries of leptons and quarks. It is shown that each of the four normed division algebras over the reals admits a…
For a positive braid $\beta \in \mathrm{Br}^{+}_{k}$, we consider the braid variety $X(\beta)$. We define a family of open sets $\mathcal{U}_{r, w}$ in $X(\beta)$, where $w \in S_k$ is a permutation and $r$ is a positive integer no greater…
Construction of representations of braid group generators from $N$-state vertex models provide an elegant route to study knot and link invariants. Using such a braid group representation, an algebraic formula for the link invariants was put…
We calculate the next-to-leading corrections to the branching ratio of exclusive $B\to K^* \gamma$ decay. The renormalization scale dependence is reduced compared to the leading logarithmic result but there remains a dependence on a cutoff…
Systematic and automatic calculations of the electronic band structure are a crucial component of computationally-driven high-throughput materials screening. An algorithm, for any crystal, to derive a unique description of the crystal…
Using a super scalar field representation of the chiral vertex operators we develop a general method of calculating braiding matrices for all types of N=1 super-conformal 4-point blocks involving Ramond external weights. We give explicit…
A beta-skeleton is a planar proximity undirected graph of an Euclidean point set where nodes are connected by an edge if their lune-based neighborhood contains no other points of the given set. Parameter $\beta$ determines size and shape of…
The n-string braid group of a graph X is defined as the fundamental group of the n-point configuration space of the space X. This configuration space is a finite dimensional aspherical space. A. Abrams and R. Ghrist have conjectured that…
The complement of a hyperplane arrangement in $\mathbb{C}^n$ deformation retracts onto an $n$-dimensional cell complex, but the known procedures only apply to complexifications of real arrangements (Salvetti) or the cell complex produced…
In this work, we investigate how the marginal beta deformation of the ${N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills theory manifests within the context of the topological B-model in the twistor space $\mathbb{CP}^{3|4}$. We begin by identifying the beta…
We study super-braided Hopf algebras $\Lambda$ primitively generated by finite-dimensional right crossed (or Drinfeld-Radford-Yetter) modules $\Lambda^1$ over a Hopf algebra $A$ which are quotients of the augmentation ideal $A^+$ under…
The bending of bilayer plates is a mechanism which allows for large deformations via small externally induced lattice mismatches of the underlying materials. Its mathematical modeling, discussed herein, consists of a nonlinear fourth order…
The braid group $B_{n}$, endowed with Artin's presentation, admits an antiautomorphism $B_{n} \to B_{n}$, such that $v \mapsto \bar{v}$ is defined by reading braids in reverse order (from right to left instead of left to right). We prove…
We obtain the Courant bracket twisted simultaneously by a 2-form $B$ and a bi-vector $\theta$ by calculating the Poisson bracket algebra of the symmetry generator in the basis obtained acting with the relevant twisting matrix. It is the…
An sp-brane can be viewed as the creation and decay of an unstable D(p+1)-brane. It is argued that the decaying half of an sp-brane can be described by a variant of boundary Liouville theory. The pair creation of open strings by a decaying…
We give a survey of the theory of surface braid groups and the lower algebraic K-theory of their group rings. We recall several definitions and describe various properties of surface braid groups, such as the existence of torsion,…
We consider spherically symmetric matter configurations on a four dimensional "brane" embedded in a five dimensional $Z_2$-symmetric "bulk". We write the junction conditions between the interior and exterior of these "stars", treat a couple…
We show that for any given n, there exists a sequence of words a_k in the generators sigma_1, ... sigma_{n-1} of the braid group B_n, representing the identity element of B_n, such that the number of braid relations of the form sigma_i…
While the methodology of band structure unfolding has appeared in several publications, the original derivations of the unfolding formulas can be considerably simplified by using the $k$-projection method. In this work, more transparent…
Gravitationally-bound clusters that survive gas removal represent an unusual mode of star formation in the Milky Way and similar spiral galaxies. While forming, they can be distinguished observationally from unbound star formation by their…
