Balanced root systems and a Schellekens-type list for holomorphic vertex operator algebras of central charge
Maneesha Ampagouni, Geoffrey Mason, Michael H. Mertens
We study a special class of holomorphic vertex operator algebras (VOAs) that we call \emph{balanced}.\ For a balanced, holomorphic VOA …
Weight multiplier systems for the group and a geometric formulation
Michael H. Mertens, Mark A. Norfleet
We construct a weight multiplier system for the group , the normalizer of the congruence subgroup where is an odd prime, and we define an analogue of t…
Class Numbers, Cyclic Simple Groups and Arithmetic
Miranda C. N. Cheng, John F. R. Duncan, Michael H. Mertens
Here we initiate a program to study relationships between finite groups and arithmetic-geometric invariants in a systematic way. To do this we first introduce a notion of optimal m…
Central Limit Theorem for the number of real roots of Kostlan Shub Smale random polynomial systems
Diego Armentano, Jean-Marc Azaïs, Federico Dalmao +1
We obtain a Central Limit Theorem for the normalized number of real roots of a square Kostlan-Shub-Smale random polynomial system of any size as the degree goes to infinity. A stud…
