We study factorizations of rational matrix functions with simple poles on the Riemann sphere. For the quadratic case (two poles) we show, using multiplicative representations of such matrix functions, that a good coordinate system on this…

We study the behaviour of differential forms in a manifold having at least one of their maximal isotropic local distributions endowed with the special algebraic property of being decomposable. We show that they can be represented as the sum…

We study special functions on euclidean spaces from the viewpoint of riemannian symmetric spaces. Here the euclidean space $E^n = G/K$ where $G$ is the semidirect product $R^n \cdot K$ of the translation group with a closed subgroup $K$ of…

We construct valuations on the space of finite-valued convex functions using integration of differential forms over the differential cycle associated to a convex function. We describe the kernel of this procedure and show that the…

All continuous, SL$(n)$ and translation invariant valuations on the space of convex functions on ${\mathbb R}^n$ are completely classified.

We show that every valued differential field has an immediate strict extension that is spherically complete. We also discuss the issue of uniqueness up to isomorphism of such an extension.

We propose methods towards a systematic determination of d dimensional curved spaces where Euclidean field theories with rigid supersymmetry can be defined. The analysis is carried out from a group theory as well as from a supergravity…

We prove some sharp Hardy inequalities for domains with a spherical symmetry. In particular, we prove an inequality for domains of the unit $n$-dimensional sphere with a point singularity, and an inequality for functions defined on the…

We consider the class $\Psi_d$ of continuous functions $\psi \colon [0,\pi] \to \mathbb{R}$, with $\psi(0)=1$ such that the associated isotropic kernel $C(\xi,\eta)= \psi(\theta(\xi,\eta))$ ---with $\xi,\eta \in \mathbb{S}^d$ and $\theta$…

We write down a one-dimensional integral formula and compute large-n asymptotics for the expectation of the absolute value of the smallest component of a unit vector in n-dimensional Euclidean space. The method is general, and allows to…

In a work by Artstein-Avidan and Milman the concept of polarity is generalized from the class of convex bodies to the larger class of convex functions. While the only self-polar convex body is the Euclidean ball, it turns out that there are…

This is the second part of our work on Zariski decomposition structures, where we compare two different volume type functions for curve classes. The first function is the polar transform of the volume for ample divisor classes. The second…

We give a characterization of smooth, rotation and dually epi-translation invariant valuations and use this result to obtain a new proof of the Hadwiger theorem on convex functions. We also give a description of the construction of the…

We characterize the valuations on the space of quasi-concave functions defined on the $N$-dimensional Euclidean space, that are rigid motion invariant and continuous with respect to a suitable topology. Among them we also provide a specific…

The geodesic total curvature of rectifiable spherical curves is analyzed. We extend to the case of high dimension spheres the explicit formula that holds true for curves supported into the 2-sphere. For this purpose, we take advantage of…

In this work we start by determining all irreducible spherical functions $\Phi$ of any $K $-type associated to the pair $(G,K)=(\SO(4),\SO(3))$. The functions $P=P(u)$ corresponding to the irreducible spherical functions of a fixed $K$-type…

We give a simplified proof of J. A. Wolf's classification of finite groups that can act freely and isometrically on a round sphere of some dimension. We slightly improve the classification by removing some non-obvious redundancy. The groups…

We prove the Plancherel formula for spherical Schwartz functions on a reductive symmetric space. Our starting point is an inversion formula for spherical smooth compactly supported functions. The latter formula was earlier obtained from the…
