Let $X$ be a prehomogeneous vector space under a connected reductive group $G$ over $\mathbb{R}$. Assume that the open $G$-orbit $X^+$ admits a finite covering by a symmetric space. We study certain zeta integrals involving (i) Schwartz…
Using a recent path integral representation for the T-matrix in nonrelativistic potential scattering we investigate new variational approximations in this framework. By means of the Feynman-Jensen variational principle and the most general…
To a pair $(A,s)$ consisting of a smooth, cyclic $A_\infty$-algebra $A$ and a splitting $s$ of the Hodge filtration on its Hochschild homology Costello (2005) associates an invariant which conjecturally generalizes the total descendant…
Diagrammatic extensions of dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) such as the dynamical vertex approximation (D$\Gamma$A) allow us to include non-local correlations beyond DMFT on all length scales and proved their worth for model calculations.…
We propose an alternative description of 2 dimensional Conformal Field Theory in terms of Quantum Inverse Scattering. It is based on the generalized KdV systems attached to $A_2^{(2)}$, yielding the classical limit of Virasoro as Poisson…
We present exact computations of partition functions of singlet vector models (infinite level Chern-Simons-matter theories) on lens spaces L(p, 1). We identify light topological configurations and their spectra, and we comment on the…
In this paper, we introduce and investigate a new extension of the beta function by means of an integral operator involving a product of Bessel-Struve kernel functions. We also define a new extension of the well-known beta distribution, the…
We demonstrate that the recent ansatz of arXiv:1009.5553, inspired by the original remark due to R.Dijkgraaf and C.Vafa, reproduces the toric conformal blocks in the same sense that the spherical blocks are given by the integral…
We discuss the relation between matrix models and the Seiberg--Witten type (SW) theories, recently proposed by Dijkgraaf and Vafa. In particular, we prove that the partition function of the Hermitean one-matrix model in the planar (large…
The basis of the $\{\beta\}$-expansion for the perturbative series evaluated in the $\overline{MS}$ scheme for the renormalization group invariant quantities is summarized.Comparison with a similar representation,used within the…
Qualification conditions (also termed constraint qualifications) help avoid pathological behavior at domain boundaries in convex analysis. By generalizing facial reduction from conic programming to general convex programs of the form $f(x)…
Analyses of the galaxy N-Point Correlation Functions (NPCFs) have a large number of degrees of freedom, meaning one cannot directly estimate an invertible covariance matrix purely from mock catalogs, as has been the standard approach for…
In the present contribution, I report on certain {\it non-linear} and {\it non-local} extensions of the conformal (Virasoro) algebra. These so-called $V$-algebras are matrix generalizations of $W$-algebras. First, in the context of…
Prototypical rational vertex operator algebras are associated to affine Lie algebras at positive integer level k. They correspond physically to the Wess-Zumino-Witten theories, and their representation theory can be captured by quantum…
In the present paper we use the expansion formula of the polylogarithm function to construct approximations of the Caputo derivative which are related to the midpoint approximation of the integral in the definition of the Caputo derivative.…
We introduce compositional tensor trains (CTTs) for the approximation of multivariate functions, a class of models obtained by composing low-rank functions in the tensor-train format. This format can encode standard approximation tools,…
Bershadsky-Cecotti-Ooguri-Vafa (BCOV) proposed that the B-model of mirror symmetry should be described by a quantum field theory on a Calabi-Yau variety, which they called the Kodaira-Spenser theory (we call it the BCOV theory). This is the…
Approximate Bayesian computation methods are useful for generative models with intractable likelihoods. These methods are however sensitive to the dimension of the parameter space, requiring exponentially increasing resources as this…
The Ward identities in Kontsevich-like 1-matrix models are used to prove at the level of discrete matrix models the suggestion of Gava and Narain, which relates the degree of potential in asymmetric 2-matrix model to the form of $\cal…
The well-known Caputo fractional derivative and the corresponding Caputo fractional integral occur naturally in many equations that model physical phenomena under inhomogeneous media. The relationship between the two fractional terms can be…
