We introduce a classification of the radial spin textures in momentum space that emerge at the high-symmetry points in crystals characterized by nonpolar chiral point groups (D2, D3, D4, D6, T, O). Based on the symmetry constraints imposed by these point g ...
We investigate generalizations along the lines of the Mordell-Lang conjecture of the author's p-adic formal Manin-Mumford results for n-dimensional p-divisible formal groups F. In particular, given a finitely generated subgroup (sic) of F(Q(p)) and a close ...
Non-positively curved spaces admitting a cocompact isometric action of an amenable group are investigated. A classification is established under the assumption that there is no global fixed point at infinity under the full isometry group. The visual bounda ...
Layered materials (LMs), such as graphite, hexagonal boron nitride, and transition-metal dichalcogenides, are at the center of an ever-increasing research effort, due to their scientific and technological relevance. Raman and infrared spectroscopies are ac ...
The crystal structure of [ZnCl2(NH3)(2)], diamminedichloridozinc, was reinvestigated at low temperature, revealing the positions of the hydrogen atoms and thus a deeper insight into the hydrogen-bonding scheme in the crystal packing. In comparison with pre ...

Regionalization methods have long been used to estimate high return levels of river discharges at ungauged locations on a river network. In these methods, discharge measurements from a homogeneous group of similar, gauged, stations are used to estimate hig ...
We consider the phase diagram of the most general SU(4)-symmetric two-site Hamiltonian for a system of two fermions per site (i.e., self-conjugate 6 representation) on the square lattice. It is known that this model hosts magnetic phases breaking SU(4) sym ...
Let R be a semilocal principal ideal domain. Two algebraic objects over R in which scalar extension makes sense (e.g. quadratic spaces) are said to be of the same genus if they become isomorphic after extending scalars to all completions of R and its fract ...
The symmetry theory of halving objects into two identical fragments is developed and illustrated by examples. La coupe du roi is a fascinating way to slice an apple into chiral fragments with the same handedness. It may be applied to any object with point ...
