Extended Space

The set of scators was introduced by Fernández-Guasti and Zaldívar in the context of special relativity and the deformed Lorentz metric. In this paper, the scator space of dimension 1+n (for n=2 and n=3) is interpreted as an intersection of some quadrics in the pseudo-Euclidean space of dimension 2n with zero signature. The scator product, nondistributive and rather counterintuitive in its original formulation, is represented as a natural commutative product in this extended space. What is more, the set of invertible embedded scators is a commutative group. This group is isomorphic to the group of all symmetries of the embedded scator space, i.e., isometries (in the space of dimension 2n) preserving the scator quadrics.

Dynamic Phenomena

In this paper I propose a network theory of attitudes where attitude agreements and disagreements forge a multilayer network structure that simultaneously binds people into groups (via attitudes) and attitudes into clusters (via people who share them). This theory proposes that people have a range of possible attitudes (like cards in a hand) but these only become meaningful when expressed (like a card played). Attitudes are expressed with sensitivity to their potential audiences and are socially performative: when we express attitudes, or respond to those expressed by others, we tell people who we are, what groups we might belong to and what to think of us. Agreement and disagreement can be modelled as a bipartite network that provides a psychological basis for perceived ingroup similarity and outgroup difference and, more abstractly, group identity. Opinion-based groups and group-related opinions are therefore co-emergent dynamic phenomena. Dynamic fixing occurs when particular attitudes become associated with specific social identities. The theory provides a framework for understanding identity ecosystems in which social group structure and attitudes are co-constituted. The theory describes how attitude change is also identity change. This has broad relevance across disciplines and applications concerned with social influence and attitude change.

Quantum Digital Signature

For the construction of post-quantum digital signature schemes that satisfy the strengthened criterion of resistance to quantum attacks, an algebraic carrier is proposed that allows one to define a hidden commutative group with two-dimensional cyclicity. Formulas are obtained that describe the set of elements that are permutable with a given fixed element. A post-quantum signature scheme based on the considered finite non-commutative associative algebra is described.

Local Solutions

The pseudogroup of local solutions in Chapter 3 defines another pseudogroup by taking its centralizer inside the diffeomorphism group Diff(M) of a manifold M. These two pseudogroups define a Lie group structure on M.
