A sphere by any other name

How alternative bilinear forms change the geometry of generalized spheres.

When
Aug 2026 – Expected Dec 2026
Venue
Lab of Geometry at Michigan LoG(M)
  • Investigating how alternative bilinear forms change the geometry of generalized spheres, with emphasis on symmetries, embedded circles, positivity, and cyclic order.
  • Constructing and comparing low-dimensional examples using matrix representations and linear-algebraic analysis to identify invariant and form-dependent geometric properties.
  • Developing computational visualizations and geometric diagrams that make abstract boundary-order structures interpretable and support further theoretical analysis.
