Spacetime symmetries

We know some nice space-time have a lot of symmetries. It is said that Minkowski spacetime has $$ISO(d-1,1)/SO(d-1,1),$$ de Sitter spacetime has $$SO(d,1)/SO(d-1,1)$$ and anti-de Sitter spacetime ...

Are there infinite many two sided prime numbers?

A prime number $p=\overline{a_na_{n-1}\ldots a_1a_0}$ is called a two sided prime number if its reverse representation $q=\overline{a_0a_1\ldots a_{n-1}a_n}$ is a prime number too. Are there ...

On the status of some conjectures mentioned/used in Harish Chandra's 1970 lecture notes

In van Dijk's notes of Harish Chandra's lectures on harmonic analysis, several conjectures are mentioned throughout, such as in Part 1, section 4 of van Dijk's notes Conjecture I : Let $\omega$ be ...

Set of points with a unique closest point in a compact set

Let $K\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be any compact set. Let $\operatorname{Unp}(K)$ be the set of points in $$\operatorname{Unp}(K)=\{x\in\mathbb{R}^n\setminus K:\, \exists ! y\in K \ \ |x-y|=d(x,K)\}.$$ ...

Example of a tensor triangulated category with two different monoidal t-structures?

What's an example of a tensor triangulated category / symmetric monoidal stable $\infty$-category with two different monoidal $t$-structures? While I'm at it: is there an example of a tensor ...

General topological space with closure operation as in Russian translation of Hausdorff's 1914 and 1927 Mengenlehre

In the Russian translation (by P. Alexandroff and A. Kolmogorov) of chapter "Point Sets in General Spaces" Hausdorff (1914), the notion of a general topological space is defined as set $R$ with ...

Is this representation of Go (game) irreducible?

This post is freely inspired by the basic rules of Go (game), usually played on a $19 \times 19$ grid graph. Consider the $\mathbb{Z}^2$ grid. We can assign to each vertex a state "black" ($b$), "...

Is there an $\infty$-topos of monochromatic spaces?

Fix (a prime $p$ and) a chromatic height $h$. Recall that the Bousfield-Kuhn functor $\Phi_h: \mathcal M_h^f \to Sp_{T(h)}$ is monadic, where $\mathcal M_h^f \subseteq Top_\ast$ is a certain ...

Tensoring irreducible $B$-series representations/ Type B Littlewood-Richardson

When tensoring finite dimensional representations of the Lie algebra ${\frak sl}_n$, we have an explicit algorithm given in terms of Young diagrams. See Section 4 of this paper. Do there exist ...
Studying the article "Games that involve set theory or topology" of Marion Scheepers, I found the following result Theorem 46 Let $\{(X_{i}, \tau_{i}) : i\in I \}$ be a family of topological spaces. ...
Let $F$ be the free group of rank $2$ (or any finite rank if this does not matter). The set of injective group endomorphisms $F\to F$ forms a monoid $M$ by compositions. Is there a simple looking set ...
