Red Blood Cell Membrane Mechanics Using Discrete Exterior Calculus (DEC) and Optimization
We present a novel DEC approach for calculating RBC shapes applicable to other cell types and membrane problems. We derive an energy minimization equation that can be solved semi‐implicitly, and a Lie derivative method to control node spacing. This novel work should aid computational modeling in many biological situations.

ABSTRACT In this paper, we continue the development of the Cartan neural networks programme, launched with three previous publications, by focusing on some mathematical foundational aspects that we deem necessary for our next steps forward. The mathematical and conceptual results are diverse and span various mathematical fields, but the inspiring ...

Graph potentials and topological quantum field theories
Abstract We introduce a new functional equation in birational geometry, whose solutions can be used to construct two‐dimensional topological quantum field theories (2d TQFTs), infinite‐dimensional in many interesting examples. The solutions of the equation give rise to a hierarchy of graph potentials, which, in the simplest setup, are Laurent ...

Equivariant toric geometry and Euler–Maclaurin formulae
Abstract We first investigate torus‐equivariant motivic characteristic classes of toric varieties, and then apply them via the equivariant Riemann–Roch formalism to prove very general Euler–Maclaurin‐type formulae for full‐dimensional simple lattice polytopes.

Fixed‐point posets of groups and Euler characteristics
Abstract Suppose that G$G$ is a group and Ω$\Omega$ is a G$G$‐set. For X$\mathcal {X}$ a set of subgroups of G$G$, we introduce the fixed‐point poset XΩ$\mathcal {X}_{\Omega }$. A variety of results concerning XΩ$\mathcal {X}_{\Omega }$ are proved as, for example, in the case when p$p$ is a prime and X$\mathcal {X}$ is a non‐empty set of finite non ...

Quantization of infinitesimal braidings and pre‐Cartier quasi‐bialgebras
Abstract In this paper, we extend Cartier's deformation theorem of braided monoidal categories admitting an infinitesimal braiding to the nonsymmetric case. The algebraic counterpart of these categories is the notion of a pre‐Cartier quasi‐bialgebra, which extends the well‐known notion of quasi‐triangular quasi‐bialgebra given by Drinfeld.

On the Euler characteristic of S$S$‐arithmetic groups
Abstract We show that the sign of the Euler characteristic of an S$S$‐arithmetic subgroup of a simple algebraic group depends on the S$S$‐congruence completion only, except possibly in type 6D4${}^6 D_4$. Consequently, the sign is a profinite invariant for such S$S$‐arithmetic groups with the congruence subgroup property. This generalizes previous work

Harmonic maps to the circle with higher dimensional singular set
Abstract In a closed, oriented ambient manifold (Mn,g)$(M^n,g)$ we consider the problem of finding S1$\mathbb {S}^1$‐valued harmonic maps with prescribed singular set. We show that the boundary of any oriented (n−1)$(n-1)$‐submanifold can be realised as the singular set of an S1$\mathbb {S}^1$‐valued map, which is classically harmonic away from the ...

Local equivalence and refinements of Rasmussen's s‐invariant
Abstract Inspired by the notions of local equivalence in monopole and Heegaard Floer homology, we introduce a version of local equivalence that combines odd Khovanov homology with equivariant even Khovanov homology into an algebraic package called a local even–odd (LEO) triple.

Homological smoothness and deformations of generalized Weyl algebras
It is an immediate conclusion from Bavula's papers \cite{Bavula:GWA-def}, \cite{Bavula:GWA-tensor-product} that if a generalized Weyl algebra $A=\kk[z;\lambda,\eta,\varphi(z)]$ is homologically smooth, then the polynomial $\varphi(z)$ has no multiple ...
