Enumerative aspects of the Gross-Siebert program [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present enumerative aspects of the Gross-Siebert program in this introductory survey. After sketching the program's main themes and goals, we review the basic definitions and results of logarithmic and tropical geometry.

Metric-Affine Geometries with Spherical Symmetry [PDF]

open access: yesSymmetry, 2020
We provide a comprehensive overview of metric-affine geometries with spherical symmetry, which may be used in order to solve the field equations for generic gravity theories which employ these geometries as their field variables. We discuss the most general class of such geometries, which we display both in the metric-Palatini formulation and in the ...

An extension to the OVH concept for knowledge‐based dose volume histogram prediction in lung tumor volumetric‐modulated arc therapy

open access: yesJournal of Applied Clinical Medical Physics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Volumetric‐modulated arc therapy (VMAT) treatment planning allows a compromise between a sufficient coverage of the planning target volume (PTV) and a simultaneous sparing of organs‐at‐risk (OARs). Particularly in the case of lung tumors, deciding whether it is possible or worth spending more time on further improvements of a treatment

Symmetries and conformal bridge in Schwarschild-(A)dS black hole mechanics

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2021
We show that the Schwarzschild-(A)dS black hole mechanics possesses a hidden symmetry under the three-dimensional Poincaré group. This symmetry shows up after having gauge-fixed the diffeomorphism invariance in the symmetry-reduced homogeneous Einstein-Λ

Tetrad gravity, electroweak geometry and conformal symmetry

open access: yes, 2010
A partly original description of gauge fields and electroweak geometry is proposed. A discussion of the breaking of conformal symmetry and the nature of the dilaton in the proposed setting indicates that such questions cannot be definitely answered in ...

Toeplitz Operators, K\"ahler Manifolds, and Line Bundles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This is a survey paper. We discuss Toeplitz operators in K\"ahler geometry, with applications to geometric quantization, and review some recent developments.Comment: This is a contribution to the Proceedings of the 2007 Midwest Geometry Conference in ...

Controlling transport of underdamped particles in two-dimensional driven Bravais lattices

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2020
We demonstrate the directed transport of underdamped particles in two-dimensional lattices of arbitrary geometry driven by an unbiased AC driving force.

Quantum gauge symmetries in noncommutative geometry

open access: yesJournal of Noncommutative Geometry, 2014
We discuss generalizations of the notion of i) the group of unitary elements of a (real or complex) finite-dimensional C*-algebra, ii) gauge transformations and iii) (real) automorphisms in the framework of compact quantum group theory and spectral triples.

Parabolic Symmetric Spaces [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Global Analysis and Geometry, Vol. 37, Issue 2,2010, 125-141, 2009
We study here systems of symmetries on $|1|$--graded parabolic geometries. We are interested in smooth systems of symmetries and we discuss non--flat homogeneous $|1|$--graded geometries. We show the existence of an invariant admissible affine connection under quite weak condition on the system.

Einstein-Riemann Gravity on Deformed Spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A differential calculus, differential geometry and the E-R Gravity theory are studied on noncommutative spaces. Noncommutativity is formulated in the star product formalism. The basis for the gravity theory is the infinitesimal algebra of diffeomorphisms.
