Lattice theory

Dual lattice

In the theory of lattices, the dual lattice is a construction analogous to that of a dual vector space. In certain respects, the geometry of the dual lattice of a lattice is the reciprocal of the geometry of , a perspective which underlies many of its uses. Dual lattices have many applications inside of lattice theory, theoretical computer science, cryptography and mathematics more broadly. For instance, it is used in the statement of the Poisson summation formula, transference theorems provide connections between the geometry of a lattice and that of its dual, and many lattice algorithms exploit the dual lattice. For an article with emphasis on the physics / chemistry applications, see Reciprocal lattice. This article focuses on the mathematical notion of a dual lattice. (Wikipedia).

Dual basis

Dual basis definition and proof that it's a basis In this video, given a basis beta of a vector space V, I define the dual basis beta* of V*, and show that it's indeed a basis. We'll see many more applications of this concept later on, but this video already shows that it's straightforwar

Dual Basis Example

In this video, I show how to explicitly calculate dual bases. More specifically, I find the dual basis corresponding to the basis (2,1) and (3,1) of R^2. Hopefully this will give you a better idea of how dual bases work. Subscribe to my channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/drpeyam What is

Every basis is a dual basis

In this video, I show a very neat result about dual spaces: Namely, any basis of V* is automatically a dual basis of some basis of V. Even though this result is very interesting, it's the proof that makes this very exciting, by simply using the fact that V and V** are 'very' isomorphic. En

Duality Argument

In this video, I present a very classical example of a duality argument: Namely, I show that T^T is one-to-one if and only if T is onto and use that to show that T is one-to-one if and only if T^T is onto. This illustrates the beautiful interplay between a vector space and its dual space,

Geometric Algebra - Duality and the Cross Product

In this video, we will introduce the concept of duality, involving a multiplication by the pseudoscalar. We will observe the geometric meaning of duality and also see that the cross product and wedge product are dual to one another, which means that the cross product is already contained w

Reverse Dual Basis

In this video, we solve a classical dual space exercise: Given a set F of linear functionals, find a basis B of V such that F is the dual basis of B. This procedure is very important in applications, an in fact in another video, we'll see a neat application of this idea to numerical integr

Modular forms: Theta functions in higher dimensions

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on modular forms. We study theta functions of even unimodular lattices, such as the root lattice of the E8 exceptional Lie algebra. As examples we show that one cannot "her the shape of a drum", and calculate the number of minimal vectors
