We study the computation of local approximations of invariant manifolds of parabolic fixed points and parabolic periodic orbits of periodic vector fields. If the dimension of these manifolds is two or greater, in general, it is not possible…

We show that the XY quantum chain in a magnetic field is invariant under a two parameter deformation of the SU(1/1) superalgebra. One is led to an extension of the braid group and the Hecke algebra which reduce to the known ones when the…

We develop techniques for computing the integer valued SU(3) Casson invariant. Our method involves resolving the singularities in the flat moduli space using a twisting perturbation and analyzing its effect on the topology of the perturbed…

We investigate for the N = 2 supersymmetry (SUSY) a relation between a vector supermultiplet of the linear SUSY and the Volkov-Akulov model of the nonlinear SUSY. We express component fields of the vector supermultiplet in terms of…

We classify, up to automorphism, left invariant Riemannian metrics on 4-dimensional simply connected nonunimodular Lie groups. This is equivalent to classifying, up to automorphism, inner products on 4-dimensional nonunimodular Lie…

Shape analysis is ubiquitous in problems of pattern and object recognition and has developed considerably in the last decade. The use of shapes is natural in applications where one wants to compare curves independently of their…

We compute the invariants for a class of knots and links in arbitrary representations in $S^3/\mathbb{Z}_p$ in the large $k$ (level), large $N$ (rank) limit, keeping $N/(k+N)=\lambda$ fixed, in $U(N)$ and $Sp(N)$ Chern-Simons theories.…

The vector system of linear differential equations for a field with arbitrary fractional spin is proposed using infinite-dimensional half-bounded unitary representations of the $\overline{SL(2,R)}$ group. In the case of $(2j+1)$-dimensional…

All SL($n$) contravariant vector valuations on polytopes in $\mathbb R^n$ are completely classified without any additional assumptions. The facet vector is defined. It turns out to be the unique such valuation for $n\geq3$. In dimension…

This paper treats some basic points in general relativity and in its perturbative analysis. Firstly a systematic classification of global SO(n) invariants, which appear in the weak-field expansion of n-dimensional gravitational theories, is…

We consider a class of non-locally compact groups on which one may define a left-invariant, finitely additive measure taking values in some finitely generated extension of the field $\mathbb{R}$ of real numbers. In particular, we recover…

The spaces of Sp(n)-, Sp(n)U(1)- and Sp(n)Sp(1)- invariant, translation invariant, continuous convex valuations on the quaternionic vector space H^n are studied. Combinatorial dimension formulas involving Young diagrams and Schur…

On the affine space containing the space $\mathcal{S}$ of quantum states of finite-dimensional systems there are contravariant tensor fields by means of which it is possible to define Hamiltonian and gradient vector fields encoding relevant…

Let a differential 4D-manifold with a smooth coframe field be given. Consider the operators on it that are linear in the second order derivatives or quadratic in the first order derivatives of the coframe, both with coefficients that depend…

We obtain new general results on the structure of the space of translation invariant continuous valuations on convex sets (a version of the hard Lefschetz theorem). Using these and our previous results we obtain explicit characterization of…

We consider the Lie group $SU_2$ endowed with a left-invariant axisymmetric Riemannian metric. This means that a metric has eigenvalues $I_1 = I_2, I_3 > 0$. We give an explicit formula for the diameter of such metric. Other words, we…

We show the existence of a weak bi-invariant symmetric nondegenerate 2-form on the symplectic diffeomorphisms group $\mathcal{D}_\omega$ of a symplectic Riemannian manifold $(M,g,\omega)$ and study its properties. We describe the Euler's…

Geometric structures on $\mathbb N Q$-manifolds, i.e.~non-negatively graded manifolds with an homological vector field, encode non-graded geometric data on Lie algebroids and their higher analogues. A particularly relevant class of…

In this note, we describe several new examples of holomorphic modular forms on the group SU(2,1). These forms are distinguished by having weight $\frac{1}{3}$. We also describe a method for determining the levels at which one should expect…

Using face algebras (i.e. algebras of L-operators of IRF models), we construct modular tensor categories with positive definite inner product, whose fusion rules and S-matrices are the same as (or slightly different from) those obtained by…
