Chasing Poincaré: Reflections on Interdisciplinary Research and Historiography
I will present two examples of influential (and incorrect) interpretations of Poincaré, pinpointing their errors and documenting some of their diffusion.

Teaching Non-Euclidean Geometries in High-School: an experimental study. [PDF]
In these years it is becoming quite clear that the development of a young student into an adult citizen requires a solid scientific background. Facing the challenges of a quickly changing world where political decisions are not only concerned with ...

Lecciones epistemológicas de la historia de la geometría
El recorrido histórico sobre la creación de las geometrías no euclidianas, es decisivo para juzgar los criterios que la epistemología ha planteado en el problema de la validez de los enunciados de las ciencias formales, así como con respecto al ...

The fourth dimension: from its spatial nature in Euclidean geometry to a time-like component of non-Euclidean manifolds [PDF]
In this article, the evolution of the ideas about the fourth spatial dimension is presented, starting from those which come out within classical Euclidean geometry and going through those arose in the framework of non-Euclidean geometries, like those of ...

Non-perturbative decay of non-Abelian hair
We construct a solution of Heterotic supergravity which interpolates between two different AdS3 × S3 × T4 geometries corresponding to the near-horizon limits of two 5-dimensional black holes, only one of which has non-Abelian hair.

D-instantons in Type IIA string theory on Calabi-Yau threefolds
Type IIA string theory compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold has a hypermultiplet moduli space whose metric is known to receive non-perturbative corrections from Euclidean D2-branes wrapped on 3-cycles.

The first objective of this work is to establish a parallel between the ordinary language philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein as well as the philosophy of Stanley Cavell and poststructuralism and its theories through their apprehension of vision and seeing

1. Non-Euclidean Geometry [PDF]
When I had the honour of being asked by the Council of the Royal Society to give the following address, I chose the subject partly because it had been brought under the notice of the fellows by my predecessor, Professor Kelland. His memoir was written comparatively early in the history of the subject; and he seems to have been but little acquainted ...

Properties of Euclidean and non-Euclidean distance matrices [PDF]
A distance matrix D of order n is symmetric with elements −12dij2, where dii=0. D is Euclidean when the 12n(n−1) quantities dij can be generated as the distances between a set of n points, X (n×p), in a Euclidean space of dimension p.

Supersymmetric indices factorize
The extent to which quantum mechanical features of black holes can be understood from the Euclidean gravity path integral has recently received significant attention. In this paper, we examine this question for the calculation of the supersymmetric index.
