An algebraic classification is given for spaces of holomorphic vector-valued modular forms of arbitrary real weight and multiplier system, associated to irreducible, T-unitarizable representations of the full modular group, of dimension…
We assume that the points in volumes smaller than an elementary volume (which may have a Planck size) are indistinguishable in any physical experiment. This naturally leads to a picture of a discrete space with a finite number of degrees of…
In this paper, the authors propose a new framework under which a theory of generalized Besov-type and Triebel-Lizorkin-type function spaces is developed. Many function spaces appearing in harmonic analysis fall under the scope of this new…
We show that Petrov type I vacuum solutions admitting a Killing vector whose Papapetrou field is aligned with a principal bivector of the Weyl tensor are the Kasner and Taub metrics, their counterpart with timelike orbits and their…
(d+1)-colored graphs, i.e. edge-colored graphs that are (d+1)-regular, have already been proved to be a useful representation tool for compact PL d-manifolds, thus extending the theory (known as crystallization theory) originally developed…
The curvature tensor of a symplectic connection, as well as its covariant derivatives, satisfy certain identities that hold on any manifold of dimension less than or equal to a fixed n. In this paper, we prove certain results regarding…
In this note we classify all homogeneous spaces $G/H$ admitting a $G$-invariant $G_2$-structure, assuming that $G$ is a compact Lie group and $G$ acts effectively on $G/H$. They include a subclass of all homogeneous spaces $G/H$ with a…
We study the recovery of multivariate functions from reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces in the uniform norm. Our main interest is to obtain preasymptotic estimates for the corresponding sampling numbers. We obtain results in terms of the…
Using G-structure language, a systematic, iterative formalism for computing neccessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of N arbitrary linearly independent Killing spinors is presented. The key organisational tool is the common…
The classification of 4-dimensional naturally reductive pseudo-Riemannian spaces is given. This classification comprises symmetric spaces, the product of 3-dimensional naturally reductive spaces with the real line and new families of…
Here we perform a Kaluza-Klein dimensional reduction of Vasiliev's first-order description of massless spin-s particles from $D=3+1$ to $D=2+1$ and derive first-order self-dual models describing particles with helicities $\pm s$ for the…
The Bel-Robinson tensor is analyzed as a linear map on the space of the traceless symmetric tensors. This study leads to an algebraic classification that refines the usual Petrov-Bel classification of the Weyl tensor. The new classes…
The tetrad approach is used to resolve the matrix square root appearing in the dRGT potential. Constraints and their algebra are derived for the minimal case. It is shown that the number of gravitational degrees of freedom corresponds to…
We investigate the structure of subspaces of a Hilbert space that are invariant under unitary representations of a discrete group. We work with square integrable representations, and we show that they are those for which we can construct an…
A new method is presented for obtaining the general conformally flat radiation metric by using the differential operators of Machado Ramos and Vickers (a generalisation of the GHP operators) which are invariant under null rotations and spin…
An exact solution to the vacuum Einstein equations is presented, whose structure is based on the Hopf fibration. The solution employs a geodesic null vector field that defines a twisting congruence and appears in the metric in Kerr-Schild…
We give simple upper bounds for rational sectional category and use them to compute invariants of the type of Farber's topological complexity of rational spaces. In particular we show that the sectional category of formal morphisms reaches…
We show that for a parabolic R^d-action on a compact quotient of PSL(2,R)^d, the cohomologies in degrees 1 through d-1 trivialize, and we give the obstructions to solving the degree-d coboundary equation, along with bounds on Sobolev norms…
We develop new constructions of 2D classical and quantum superintegrable Hamiltonians allowing separation of variables in Cartesian coordinates. In classical mechanics we start from two functions on a one-dimensional phase space, a natural…
Recently a new model has been proposed to describe free massive spin-2 particles in $D$ dimensions in terms of a non symmetric rank-2 tensor $e_{\mu\nu}$ and a mixed symmetry tensor $B^{\mu[\alpha\beta]}$. The model is invariant under…
