Generators for a Complex Hyperbolic Braid Group
We give generators for a certain complex hyperbolic braid group. That is, we remove a hyperplane arrangement from complex hyperbolic 13space, take the quotient of the remaining space by a discrete group, and find generators for the orbifold fundamental group of the quotient. These generators have the most natural form: loops corresponding to the hyperplanes which come nearest the basepoint. Our...
متن کاملMonstrous epithelial cell clusters in the seminal vesicle.
A 60-year-old man presented with dysuria and elevated PSA (6.95 ng/ml). Needle biopsies of the prostate revealed well differentiated adenocarcinoma of Gleason's score 6. Prostatectomy and bilateral seminal vesiculotomy were performed. The material was totally cut into 16 preparations. The prostate showed well differentiated adenocarcinoma. The left seminal vesicle showed intraluminal monstrous ...
متن کاملMonstrous and Generalized Moonshine and Permutation Orbifolds
We consider the application of permutation orbifold constructions towards a new possible understanding of the genus zero property in Monstrous and Generalized Moonshine. We describe a theory of twisted Hecke operators in this setting and conjecture on the form of Generalized Moonshine replication formulas.

متن کاملWalt Whitman and Sir William Osler: a poet and his physician
follows with a wonderful piece on the cataloguing of the monstrous from the cabinet to the collections and representations of embryological monsters. Roy Porter, too, fills in the details for the eighteenth century. His brilliant essay on "monsters and the mad" fills in the conceptual gap which Zapperi leaves between these two categories. He shows how both categories reinforce each other on the...
