What is Expositio?

A public repository for expository academic papers, with an integrated scholarly record.

Expositio is a place to read and cite expository work. Papers are published as stable, citable records, while remaining connected to later versions, editorial decisions, and related context.

Some papers are early drafts; others have been peer reviewed or formally published. Each paper remains readable on its own, while preserving the history behind it.

The result is both a reading room and a record: a place to browse by field, read papers in stable form, and follow their development over time.

Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) host two inequivalent valleys at the K and K′ points of the Brillouin zone, offering a binary degree of freedom that can encode information. Lifting the degeneracy between these valleys is the central challenge of valleytronics. …

Single-point airfoil optimization targets one operating condition, which limits how reliably a design performs across real flight conditions. This study presents a multi-point optimization of a NACA 4-digit airfoil, maximizing lift-to-drag ratio and lift coefficient while minimi…

Kepler Towers (Catalan Objects)

Justin Cheong

Preprint
v1

In this paper, we will dive into the deep world of Catalan numbers, exploring interesting examples and why those are Catalan objects. There will be a special focus on Kepler Towers, one specific type of Catalan object that seems to be relatively unstudied and has a nonobvious …

Hilbert's Third Problem

Simon Rubinstein-Salzedo

Preprint
v1

Hilbert's Third Problem asks whether, given two polyhedra of the same volume, it is possible to cut one into finitely many polyhedra and rearrange the pieces into the other one. In these notes, we will answer this question and study the surrounding mathematics. The notes conclud…

Central Limit Theorem

Justin Cheong

Preprint
v1

In this paper, we will prove a few different versions of the Central Limit Theorem: first, a weak one, then the Lindeberg and Liapunov Central Limit Theorems. Additionally, we will show the Central Limit Theorem in action and explain why it is one of the most useful theorems …
