    Euclidean simplices generating discrete reflection groups

    AbstractLet P be a convex polytope in the Euclidean space En. Consider the group GP generated by reflections in the facets of P. We say that P generates a reflection group GP. The spherical simplices generating simply-laced reflection groups were described by P.J. Cameron, J.J. Seidel and S.V. Tsaranov [Signed graphs, root lattices and Coxeter groups, J. Algebra 164 (1994) 173–209]. The simplices generating the remaining spherical reflection groups were listed in [A. Felikson, Spherical simplices generating discrete reflection groups, Sb. Math. 195 (3–4) (2004) 585–598, arXiv:math.MG/0212244]. In the present paper, we find all Euclidean simplices generating discrete reflection groups

    Exhange graphs for mutation-finite non-integer quivers

    Skew-symmetric non-integer matrices with real entries can be viewed as quivers with noninteger arrow weights. Such quivers can be mutated following the usual rules of quiver mutation. Felikson and Tumarkin show that mutation-finite non-integer quivers admit geometric realisations by partial reflections. This allows us to define a geometric notion of seeds and thus to define the exchange graphs for mutation classes. In this paper we study exchange graphs of mutation-finite quivers. The concept of finite type generalises naturally to mutation-finite non-integer quivers. We show that for all non-integer quivers of finite type there is a well-defined notion of an exchange graph, and this notion is consistent with the classical notion of exchange graph of integer mutation types coming from cluster algebras. In particular, exchange graphs of finite type quivers are finite. We also show that exchange graphs of rank 3 affine quivers are finite modulo the action of a finite-dimensional lattice (but unlike the integer case, the rank of the lattice is higher than 1 for non-integer quivers)

    Richardson, Barbauld, and the construction of an early modern fan club

    No full text
    MPhilMuch has been written about the life and long works of the eighteenth century epistolary novelist, Samuel Richardson, but the prospect of his position as the first celebrity novelist – responsible for courting his own fame as well as initiating his own fan club – has largely been ignored. The body of manuscripts housed at the National Art Library in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London provides the modern scholar with evidence of the skeletal beginnings of an early fan club. This thesis aims to show how these manuscripts were turned into a saleable commodity by the publisher and entrepreneur Richard Phillips, while under the guiding hand of another, slightly later, literary celebrity, Anna Laetitia Barbauld. In order to restore Richardson’s reputation amongst a new nineteenth century audience, Barbauld was required to construct her own idea of him as an eighteenth century celebrity author, and in doing so the insecurities of a self-professed, apparently diffident man, are revealed. Barbauld’s capacious, but heavily edited selection of letters is analyzed in this thesis, providing ample evidence that Richardson’s correspondents were more than just eager letter writers. By using Barbauld’s biography of Richardson this thesis aims to show how she manipulates the genre of life writing in her construction of him. This thesis offers an alternative reading of how the Richardson manuscripts are viewed, redefining them as not simply a collection of letters, but as a collective entity, deliberately selected and archived as evidence of an early modern fan club, and its celebrity managing director
