Factorization homology theories of topological manifolds, after Beilinson,
Drinfeld and Lurie, are homology-type theories for topological n-manifolds
whose coefficient systems are n-disk algebras or n-disk stacks. In this
work we prov...

Phylogenetically decisive sets of taxon sets have the property that if trees
are chosen for each of their elements, as long as these trees are compatible,
the resulting supertree is unique. This means that as long as the trees
describing th...
Tilings of an Isosceles Triangle
June 9, 2012
Mathematics
Metric Geometry
An N-tiling of triangle ABC by triangle T is a way of writing ABC as a union
of N triangles congruent to T, overlapping only at their boundaries. The
triangle T is the "tile". The tile may or may not be similar to ABC. In this
paper we stud...

It is a result of Ginibre that the normalized bulk k-point correlation
functions of a complex n×n Gaussian matrix with independent entries of
mean zero and unit variance are asymptotically given by the determinantal point
process ...
Triangle Tiling V: Tilings by a tile with integer sides

Metric Geometry
An N-tiling of triangle ABC by triangle T is a way of writing ABC as a union
of N triangles congruent to T, overlapping only at their boundaries. The
triangle T is the "tile". The tile may or may not be similar to ABC. We wish to
understand...

We begin from the generalised eight-dimensional Minkowski spacetime
structure, previously developed in Clifford geometric algebra Cℓ(ℜ3).
We propose that this is the correct algebraic representation for physical
three-dimensional ...

General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology
Since the discovery of cosmic acceleration, modified gravity theories play an
important role in the modern cosmology. In particular, the well-known
F(R)-theories reached great popularity motivated by the easier formalism and by
the prospect...

This is an introductory review of topological field theories (TFTs) called
AKSZ sigma models. The AKSZ construction is a mathematical formulation for the
construction and analyses of a large class of TFTs, inspired by the
Batalin-Vilkovisky...
Riemannian Metrics and Harmonic Sections of Spinor Bundles

Functional Analysis
We study the clustering of the lowest non negative eigenvalue of the Dirac
operator on a general Dirac bundle when the metric structure is varied. In the
classical case we show that any closed spin manifold of dimension greater than

We exhibit isomorphisms of Grassmann spaces and their relationship with
collineations and embeddings of the underlying projective spaces....
