We conjecture an exact formula for the Kontsevich integral of the unknot, and also conjecture a formula (also conjectured independently by Deligne) for the relation between the two natural products on the space of Chinese characters. The…
The aim of this note is to prove various general properties of a generalization of the full module of first order differential operators on a commutative ring - a $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebra. A $\operatorname{D}$-Lie algebra $\tilde{L}$…
We first study some properties of images of commuting differential operators of polynomial algebras of order one with constant leading coefficients. We then propose what we call the image conjecture on these differential operators and show…
We explore connections between stellar moves on simplicial complexes (these are fundamental operations of combinatorial topology) and projective Fra{\"i}ss{\'e} limits (this is a model theoretic construction with topological applications).…
We study the category of wheeled PROPs using tools from Invariant Theory. A typical example of a wheeled PROP is the mixed tensor algebra ${\mathcal V}=T(V)\otimes T(V^\star)$, where $T(V)$ is the tensor algebra on an $n$-dimensional vector…
The perturbative expansion of tensorial field theories in Feynman graphs can be interpreted as weighted generating series of some piecewise linear varieties. This simple fact establishes a link between two a priori distinct fields: the…
We introduce an algebra of elliptic commuting variables involving a base $q$, nome $p$, and $2r$ noncommuting variables. This algebra, which for $r=1$ reduces to an algebra considered earlier by the author, is an elliptic extension of the…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring: we explain the Beilinson-Bernstein localisation mechanism for sheaves of homogeneous twisted differential operators defined over a smooth, separated, locally of finite type $R$-scheme. As an application, we…
Riemann surfaces with nodes can be described by introducing simple composite operators in matrix models. In the case of the Kontsevich model, it is sufficient to add the quadratic, but ``non-propagating'', term (tr[X])^2 to the Lagrangian.…
We present explicit generators of an algebra of commuting difference operators with trigonometric coefficients. The operators are simultaneously diagonalized by recently discovered q-polynomials (viz. Koornwinder's multivariable…
The combinatorial refinement techniques have proven to be an efficient approach to isomorphism testing for particular classes of graphs. If the number of refinement rounds is small, this puts the corresponding isomorphism problem in a…
Generalizing the algebra of motion-invariant differential operators on a symmetric space we study invariant operators on equivariant vector bundles. We show that the eigenequation is equivalent to the corresponding eigenequation with…
We consider symmetry operations on the four-dimensional vector space that is spanned by the local versions of the Minkowski functionals (or fundamental measures): volume, surface, integral mean curvature, and Euler characteristic, of an…
The Heisenberg-Weyl algebra, which underlies virtually all physical representations of Quantum Theory, is considered from the combinatorial point of view. We provide a concrete model of the algebra in terms of paths on a lattice with some…
We continue a program generalizing classical results from the analysis on symmetric cones to the Dunkl setting for root systems of type A. In particular, we prove a Dunkl-Laplace transform identity for Heckman-Opdam hypergeometric functions…
In the present paper we continue the project of systematic construction of invariant differential operators on the example of the non-compact exceptional algebra $E_{7(-25)}$. Our choice of this particular algebra is motivated by the fact…
The operad of moulds is realized in terms of an operational calculus of formal integrals (continuous formal power series). This leads to many simplifications and to the discovery of various suboperads. In particular, we prove a conjecture…
In this paper, we pursue the investigations started in \cite{Mas-You} where the authors provide a construction of the Dunkl intertwining operator for a large subset of the set of regular multiplicity values. More precisely, we make concrete…
We give a combinatorial evaluation of Iwahori Whittaker functions for unramified genuine principal series representations on metaplectic covers of the general linear group over a non-archimedean local field. To describe the combinatorics,…
Let $\Delta$ be a linear differential operator acting on the space of densities of a given weight $\lo$ on a manifold $M$. One can consider a pencil of operators $\hPi(\Delta)=\{\Delta_\l\}$ passing through the operator $\Delta$ such that…
