Monodromy Representations of the Braid Group [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Chiral conformal blocks in a rational conformal field theory are a far going extension of Gauss hypergeometric functions. The associated monodromy representations of Artin's braid group capture the essence of the modern view on the subject, which ...

Multiobjective Codesign Optimization of a Planar Pneumatic Artificial Muscle‐Based Snake‐Like Robot for Enhanced Agility and Energy Efficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

Iterant Algebra

open access: yesEntropy, 2017
We give an exposition of iterant algebra, a generalization of matrix algebra that is motivated by the structure of measurement for discrete processes. We show how Clifford algebras and matrix algebras arise naturally from iterants, and we then use this ...

Cross‐Scale Hierarchical Targeted Delivery System Based on Small‐Scale Magnetic Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article reviews a cross‐scale hierarchical targeted delivery system that integrates magnetic continuum robots and magnetic microrobots. By combining rapid long‐range navigation with precise microscale targeting, the system overcomes key limitations of single‐scale approaches.

Mean-set attack: cryptanalysis of Sibert et al. authentication protocol

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Cryptology, 2010
We analyze the Sibert et al. group-based (Feige–Fiat–Shamir type) authentication protocol and show that the protocol is not computationally zero-knowledge.

Strategic Design of Soft Actuators in Translational Medical Robotics for Human‐Centered Healthcare

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Soft robotics enables biocompatible, compliant medical devices, but clinical translation requires design‐driven engineering beyond materials. This perspective reviews implantable, surgical, and wearable systems by actuation mechanism, highlighting how optimized architectures and integration improve mechanical interfacing, adaptability, and durability ...

Representations of the Necklace Braid Group [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The necklace braid group NBvn is the motion group of the n + 1 component necklace link Lvn in Euclidean R^3 . The link Lvn consists of n pairwise unlinked Euclidean circles each linked to an auxiliary circle.

Double Affine Hecke Algebras of Rank 1 and the Z_3-Symmetric Askey-Wilson Relations

open access: yesSymmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2010
We consider the double affine Hecke algebra H=H(k_0,k_1,k_0^v,k_1^v;q) associated with the root system (C_1^v,C_1). We display three elements x, y, z in H that satisfy essentially the Z_3-symmetric Askey-Wilson relations.

Ising-like and Fibonacci anyons from KZ-equations

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2022
In this work we present solutions to Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov (KZ) equations corresponding to conformal block wavefunctions of non-Abelian Ising-like and Fibonacci Anyons.

Stochastic Entanglement of Deterministic Origami Tentacles For Robust Robotic Grasping

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces an origami tentacle gripper to robustly grasp objects‐in air, underwater, and even in orbital space‐by exploiting a synergy between local, deterministic deformation programming and global, stochastic entanglements. A single origami tentacle can be designed to coil with a simple tendon pull.
