Consider a decomposition $\mathfrak{n} = \mathfrak{n}_1 \oplus \cdots \oplus \mathfrak{n}_r$ of the positive nilradical of a complex semisimple Lie algebra of rank $r$, where each $\mathfrak{n}_k$ is a module under an appropriate Levi…

Using Polyakov's functional integral approach with the Liouville action functional defined in \cite{ZT2} and \cite{LTT}, we formulate quantum Liouville theory on a compact Riemann surface X of genus g > 1. For the partition function <X> and…

We present a (mathematically rigorous) probabilistic and geometrical proof of the KPZ relation between scaling exponents in a Euclidean planar domain D and in Liouville quantum gravity. It uses the properly regularized quantum area measure…

We study differential cohomology on categories of globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifolds. The Lorentzian metric allows us to define a natural transformation whose kernel generalizes Maxwell's equations and fits into a restriction of the…

In the first part of the paper, we study conformal groups that act properly discontinuously and cocompactly on simply connected, non-flat homogeneous plane waves. We show that proper cocompact similarity actions that are not isometric can…

In many applications, we desire neural networks to exhibit invariance or equivariance to certain groups due to symmetries inherent in the data. Recently, frame-averaging methods emerged to be a unified framework for attaining symmetries…

We construct Euclidean Liouville conformal field theories in odd number of dimensions. The theories are nonlocal and non-unitary with a log-correlated Liouville field, a ${\cal Q}$-curvature background, and an exponential Liouville-type…

We use localization method to understand the rational equivariant cohomology rings of real Grassmannians and oriented Grassmannians, then relate this to the Leray-Borel description which says the ring generators are equivariant Pontryagin…

In this paper, we study quantum modular forms in connection to quantum invariants of plumbed 3-manifolds introduced recently by Gukov, Pei, Putrov, and Vafa. We explicitly compute these invariants for any $3$-leg star plumbing graphs whose…

In the classification of real singularities by Arnold et al. (1985), normal forms, as representatives of equivalence classes under right equivalence, are not always uniquely determined. We describe the complete structure of the equivalence…

The more important difference between Riemann and pseudo-Riemann manifolds is the metric signature and its theoretical consequences. The practical application for Physics Theories becomes often impossible due to the signature consequences.…

Dubrovin has shown that the spectrum of the quantization (with respect to the first Poisson structure) of the dispersionless Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) hierarchy is given by shifted symmetric functions; the latter are related by the…

A generalisation of the classical covariance for quantum mechanical observables has previously been presented by Gibilisco, Hiai and Petz. Gibilisco and Isola has proved that the usual quantum covariance gives the sharpest inequalities for…

Using arbitrary symplectic structures and parametrization invariant actions, we develop a formalism, based on Dirac's quantization procedure, that allows us to consider theories with both space-space as well as space-time noncommutativity.…

The quantum Bruhat graph, which is an extension of the graph formed by covering relations in the Bruhat order, is naturally related to the quantum cohomology ring of G/B. We enhance a result of Fulton and Woodward by showing that the…

Classical physics is reformulated as a constrained Hamiltonian system in the history phase space. Dynamics, i.e. the Euler-Lagrange equations, play the role of first-class constraints. This allows us to apply standard methods from the…
