We show that the configuration space over a manifold M inherits many curvature properties of the manifold. For instance, we show that a lower Ricci curvature bound on M implies for the configuration space a lower Ricci curvature bound in…

We show that the travel time difference functions, measured on the boundary, determine a compact Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary up to Riemannian isometry, if boundary satisfies a certain visibility condition. This corresponds with…

Generalizing to relativistic exponential scaling and using the theory of noise from quantum fluctuations, it has been shown that one vacuum (Rindler, Hartle-Hawking, or Gibbons-Hawking for the cases of the uniformly accelerated detector,…

In this paper we introduce and study Brownian motion on state spaces with varying dimension. Starting with a concrete case of such state spaces that models a big square with a flag pole, we construct a Brownian motion on it and study how…

Let $M$ be a finite volume oriented Riemannian manifold of dimension $n\geq 3$ and curvature in $[-b^2,-1]$, with thick-thin decomposition $M=M(thick)\cup M(thin)$. Denote by $\lambda_k(M(thick))$ the k-th eigenvalue for the Laplacian on…

The motion of a quantum particle constrained to a two-dimensional non-compact Riemannian manifold with non-trivial metric can be described by a flat-space Schroedinger-type equation at the cost of introducing local mass and metric and…

We study heat and wave type equations on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ by considering non-local operators in time with any positive densely defined linear operator with discrete spectrum. We show the explicit representation of the…
