A knight's tour on a board is a sequence of knight moves that visits each square exactly once. A knight's tour on a square board is called magic knight's tour if the sum of the numbers in each row and column is the same (magic constant). Knight's tour in higher dimensions (n > 3) is a new topic in the age-old world of knight's tours. In this paper, it has been proved that there can't be magic knight's tour or closed knight's tour in an odd order n-dimensional hypercube. 3 \times 4 \times 2n-2…

An optimization problem related to the extension in k-dimensions of the well known 3x3 points problem by Sam Loyd is considered, thanks to a variation of the so called “clockwise-algorithm”, it is shown how it is possible to visit all the 3^k points of the k-dimensional grid given by the Cartesian product of (0, 1, 2).

### Commutator, spectral analysis and application

We present the theory of positive commutator and its recent improvements. We discuss applications to the spectral analysis of magnetic Laplacians on manifolds, singular Dirac operators, and slowly
