Einstein-dilaton-Gauss-Bonnet gravity is investigated on existence of solutions with mild singularities, not shielded by the event horizons. These still may have sense since presumably such singularities will be smoothed by corrections to…
We describe a bilinear identity satisfied by certain multidimensional q-hypergeometric integrals. The identity can be considered as a deformation of the Riemann bilinear relation for the twisted de Rham (co)homologies. The identity also…
We show how to define curvature as a measure using the Gauss-Bonnet Theorem on a family of singular surfaces obtained by gluing together smooth surfaces along boundary curves. We find an explicit formula for the curvature measure as a sum…
This paper establishes a connection between the Hawking temperature of spacetime horizons and global topological invariants, specifically the Euler characteristic of Wick-rotated Euclidean spacetimes. This is demonstrated for both de Sitter…
We compute the measure with multiplicity of the set of complex planes intersecting a compact domain in a complex space form. The result is given in terms of the so-called hermitian intrinsic volumes. Moreover, we obtain two different…
Making use of the SO(3,1) Lorentz algebra, we derive in this paper two series of Gauss-Bonnet type identities involving torsion, one being of the Pontryagin type and the other of the Euler type. Two of the six identities involve only…
An identity is proved connecting two finite sums of inverse tangents. This identity is discretized version of Jacobi's imaginary transformation for the modular angle from the theory of elliptic functions. Some other related identities are…
In this thesis we deal with spectral invariants for polygons and closed orbisurfaces of constant Gaussian curvature. In each case our method is to study the heat kernel and the asymptotic expansion of the heat trace. First, we investigate…
Type families on higher inductive types such as pushouts can capture homotopical properties of differential geometric constructions including connections, curvature, and vector fields. We define a class of pushouts based on simplicial…
We study type II universal metrics of the Lorentzian signature. These metrics simultaneously solve vacuum field equations of all theories of gravitation with the Lagrangian being a polynomial curvature invariant constructed from the metric,…
We discuss notions of Gauss curvature and mean curvature for polyhedral surfaces. The discretizations are guided by the principle of preserving integral relations for curvatures, like the Gauss/Bonnet theorem and the mean-curvature force…
In this paper, we establish some comparison theorems for the total quotient curvature. Specifically, we examine the behavior of the functional with respect to the total quotient curvature and prove that the background Einstein metric…
Using general identities for difference operators, as well as a technique of symbolic computation and tools from probability theory, we derive very general kth order (k \ge 2) convolution identities for Bernoulli and Euler polynomials. This…
The statement of the Gauss-Bonnet theorem brings up an unexpected form of reflexivity (major concept of philosophy of mathematics), so that geometry contemplates itself in it. It is therefore the revolutionary and multifaceted concept of…
Using the methods of classical invariant theory a general approach to finding of identities for Bernulli, Euler and Hermite polynomials is proposed.
In the paper we provide some polynomial identities for finite-dimensional algebras. A list of well known single polynomial identities is exposed and the classification of all $2$-dimensional algebras with respect to these identities is…
We write explicitly the Euler identity and the Gibbs-Duhem relation for thermodynamic potentials that are not homogeneous first-order functions of their natural extensive variables. We apply the rules to the theory of geometrothermodynamics…
We prove a Gauss-Bonnet formula for the extrinsic curvature of complete surfaces in hyperbolic space under some assumptions on the asymptotic behaviour. The result is given in terms of the measure of geodesics intersecting the surface…
In this paper we introduce a class of polygonal complexes for which we can define a notion of sectional combinatorial curvature. These complexes can be viewed as generalizations of 2-dimensional Euclidean and hyperbolic buildings. We focus…
It is shown that the curious identity of Simons follows immediately from Euler's series transformation formula and also from an identity due to Ljunggren. The relation of Simons' identity to Legendre's polynomials is also discussed. At the…
