The ring $\text{Diff}_{\mathbf{h}}(n)$ of $\mathbf{h}$-deformed differential operators appears in the theory of reduction algebras. In this thesis, we construct the rings of generalized differential operators on the $\mathbf{h}$-deformed…
In this paper, we study harmonic analysis on the affine Poincar\'e group $\mathcal{P}_{aff}$, which is a non-unimodular group, and obtain pseudo-differential operators with operator valued symbols. More precisely, we study the boundedness…
We study a novel type of braid groups on a closed orientable surface $\Sigma$. These are fundamental groups of certain manifolds that are hybrids between symmetric products and configuration spaces of points on $\Sigma$; a class of examples…
We study linear ordinary differential equations which are analytically parametrized on Hermitian symmetric spaces and invariant under the action of symplectic groups. They are generalizations of the classical Lam\'e equation. Our main…
We develop a categorical framework for reasoning about abstract properties of differentiation, based on the theory of fibrations. Our work encompasses the first-order fragments of several existing categorical structures for differentiation,…
We study differential operators on an elliptic curve of order higher than 2 which are algebraically integrable (i.e., finite gap). We discuss classification of such operators of order 3 with one pole, discovering exotic operators on special…
We study two special cases of the equivariant index defined in part I of this series. We apply this index to deformations of Spin$^c$-Dirac operators, invariant under actions by possibly noncompact groups, with possibly noncompact orbit…
For a manifold M we define a structure on the group action of Diff(M) on the smooth functions on M which reduces to the usual differential geometry upon differentiation at zero along the one-parameter groups of Diff(M). This ``integrated…
We define the gauge-equivariant index of a family of elliptic operators invariant with respect to the free action of a family $\GR \to B$ of Lie groups (these families are called ``gauge-invariant families'' in what follows). If the fibers…
For a smooth algebraic variety $X$, we study the category of finitely generated modules over the ring of function of $X$ that has a compatible action of the Lie algebra $\mathcal{V}$ of polynomials vector fields on $X$. We show that the…
In this paper we study the decomposition of the direct image of $\pi_+(\Oc_{X})$ the polynomial ring $\Oc_X$ as a $\D$-module, under the map $\pi: \spec \Oc_{X} \to \spec \Oc_{X}^{G(r,n)}$, where $\Oc_{X}^{G(r,n)}$ is the ring of invariant…
Consider a unitary representation $\pi$ of a discrete group $G$, which, when restricted to an almost normal subgroup $\Gamma\subseteq G$, is of type II. We analyze the associated unitary representation $\overline{\pi}^{\rm{p}}$ of $G$ on…
For a smooth scheme $X$ over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic, we define (for each $m\in\mathbb{Z}$) a sheaf of rings $\mathcal{\widehat{D}}_{W(X)}^{(m)}$ of differential operators (of level $m$) over the Witt vectors of $X$.…
Tangent categories are categories equipped with a tangent functor: an endofunctor with certain natural transformations which make it behave like the tangent bundle functor on the category of smooth manifolds. They provide an abstract…
Let $X/\mathbb{P}^1$ be a Mori fibre space with general fibre of Picard rank at least two. We prove that there is a proper closed subset $S\subsetneq X$, invariant by the connected component of the identity ${\rm Aut}^{\circ}(X)$ of the…
Earlier the authors considered and, in some cases, computed Poincare series of two sorts of multi-index filtrations on the ring of germs of functions on a complex (normal) surface singularity (in particular on the complex plane). A…
In this article, we examine the geometry of a group of Fourier-integral operators, which is the central extension of $Diff(S^1)$ with a group of classical pseudo-differential operators of any order. Several subgroups are considered, and the…
In this paper we study the properties of multiplication invariant (MI) operators acting on subspaces of the vector-valued space $L^2(X;\mathcal H)$. We characterize such operators in terms of range functions by showing that there is an…
Let ${\cal D}^k$ be the space of $k$-th order linear differential operators on ${\bf R}$: $A=a_k(x)\frac{d^k}{dx^k}+\cdots+a_0(x)$. We study a natural 1-parameter family of $\Diff(\bf R)$- (and $\Vect(\bf R)$)-modules on ${\cal D}^k$. (To…
We classify and construct $SL(n,\mathbb{R})$-intertwining differential operators $\mathcal{D}$ from a line bundle to a vector bundle over the real projective space $\mathbb{RP}^{n-1}$ by the F-method. This generalizes a classical result of…
