We review the relation between scale and conformal symmetries in various models and dimensions. We present a dimensional reduction from relativistic to non-relativistic conformal dynamics.
The modulus metric (also called the capacity metric) on a domain $D\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ can be defined as $\mu_D(x,y)=\inf\{{\mbox{cap}}\,(D,\gamma)\}$, where ${\mbox{cap}}\,(D,\gamma)$ stands for the capacity of the condenser $(D,\gamma)$…
By a conformal string in Euclidean space is meant a closed critical curve with non-constant conformal curvatures of the conformal arclength functional. We prove that (1) the set of conformal classes of conformal strings is in 1-1…
Let $\mathfrak{M}$ be a class of metric spaces. A metric space $Y$ is minimal $\mathfrak{M}$-universal if every $X\in\mathfrak{M}$ can be isometrically embedded in $Y$ but there are no proper subsets of $Y$ satisfying this property. We find…
In this note we show the Bredon-analogue of a result by Emmanouil and Talelli, which gives a criterion when the homological and cohomological dimensions of a countable group $G$ agree. We also present some applications to groups of…
Inspired by the all-important conformal invariance of harmonic maps on two-dimensional domains, this article studies the relationship between biharmonicity and conformality. We first give a characterization of biharmonic morphisms,…
The conformal method in general relativity aims to successfully parametrise the set of all initial data associated with globally hyperbolic spacetimes. One such mapping was suggested by David Maxwell. I verify that the solutions of the…
We consider definable topological spaces of dimension one in o-minimal structures, and state several equivalent conditions for when such a topological space $\left(X,\tau\right)$ is definably homeomorphic to an affine definable space…
Necessary and sufficient conditions for a space-time to be conformal to an Einstein space-time are interpreted in terms of curvature restrictions for the corresponding Cartan conformal connection.
Let $E$ be a closed polar subset of $\mathbb{C}$. In this short note, we use elementary potential theoretic tools to show that any conformal map on $\mathbb{C}\setminus{E}$ is necessarily a M\"{o}bius map. As a consequence we obtain that…
We show that if the upper Assouad dimension of the compact set $E\subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is positive, then given any $D>\dim_{A}E$ there is a measure with support $E$ and upper Assouad (or regularity) dimension $D$. Similarly, given any…
The conformal symmetry on the instanton moduli space is discussed using the ADHM construction, where a viewpoint of "homogeneous coordinates" for both the spacetime and the moduli space turns out to be useful. It is shown that the conformal…
We construct field theories in $2+1$ dimensions with multiple conformal symmetries acting on only one of the spatial directions. These can be considered a conformal extension to "subsystem scale invariances", borrowing the language often…
Using the definition of uniformly perfect sets in terms of convergent sequences, we apply lower bounds for the Hausdorff content of a uniformly perfect subset $E$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ to prove new explicit lower bounds for the Hausdorff…
Let $\mathcal{R}$ be a free Lie conformal algebra of rank $2$ with $\mathbb{C}[\partial]$-basis $\{L,I\}$ and relations \begin{eqnarray*} \left[L_{\lambda} L\right]=(\partial+2 \lambda) (L+I),\ \left[L_{\lambda} I\right]=(\partial+\lambda)…
$Vect(N)$, the algebra of vector fields in $N$ dimensions, is studied. Some aspects of local differential geometry are formulated as $Vect(N)$ representation theory. There is a new class of modules, {\it conformal fields}, whose…
A theorem of Lawson and Simons states that the only stable minimal submanifolds in complex projective spaces are complex submanifolds. We generalize their result to the cases of quaternionic and octonionic projective spaces. Our approach…
We show that for Gibbs measures on self-conformal sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ $(d\ge2)$ satisfying certain minimal assumptions, without requiring any separation condition, the Hausdorff dimension of orthogonal projections to $k$-dimensional…
In this note we study the conformal metrics of constant $Q$ curvature on closed locally conformally flat manifolds. We prove that for a closed locally conformally flat manifold of dimension $n\geq 5$ and with Poincar\"{e} exponent less than…
Working in the general context of "modules with an additive dimension," we complete the determination of the minimal dimension of a faithful Alt(n)-module and classify those modules in three of the exceptional cases: 2-dimensional…
