We construct a parallel transport on higher loop spaces of a manifold in term of a higher dimensional generalization of iterated path integrals. Under mild assumptions, we define a de Rham complex on higher loop spaces and we recover a…
We deduce from the work of Chen, that the restriction morphism from closed free iterated integrals to closed iterated integrals on loops is onto. We use this to show that the module of higher order invariants of smooth functions is…
Higher order automorphic forms have recently been introduced to study important questions in number theory and mathematical physics. We investigate the connection between these functions and Chen's iterated integrals. Then using Chen's…
Chen's iterated integrals are treated within synthetic differential geometry. The main result is that iterated integrals produce a subcomplex of the de Rham complex on the free path space as well as based path spaces.
Chen's iterated integrals may be generalized by interpolation of functions of the positive integer number of times which particular forms are iterated in integrals along specific paths, to certain complex values. These generalized iterated…

We develop a class of integrals on a manifold M called exponential iterated integrals, an extension of K. T. Chen's iterated integrals. It is shown that the matrix entries of any upper triangular representation of the fundamental group of M…
K.T. Chen showed that iterated integrals give comparison isomorphisms between the cohomologies of bar complexes and fundamental group rings. This led to the development of an algebraic-geometric approach to studying periods given by…
Repeated integration is a major topic of integral calculus. In this article, we study repeated integration. In particular, we study repeated integrals and recurrent integrals. For each of these integrals, we develop reduction formulae for…
A simplicial analogy of Chen's iterated integral was introduced in another paper. However, its properties were hardly investigated in the paper. In particular, no mention is made of whether it coincides with Chen's iterated integral as a…
In this paper we generalize notions of iterated integral with regard to an unpredictable process. We establish a formula of integration by parts, the existence of a continuous modification and give an expression of the increasing process.
New invariants for 2-dimensional cell complexes are defined, which can be interpreted as curvature bounds. These invariants are proved to be rational and computable in a companion article. This document is a survey that collects theorems…
Let X be a simply connected Riemannian manifold. Until now, quantitative topology has used Sullivan's rational homotopy theory as the bridge between geometric information on X and torsion-free homotopy theoretic information on X. In this…
We introduce a class of iterated integrals, defined through a set of linearly independent integration kernels on elliptic curves. As a direct generalisation of multiple polylogarithms, we construct our set of integration kernels ensuring…
In this paper, we consider a discrete version of iterated integrals by the naive (equally divided) Riemann sum. In particular, basic three formulas for usual iterated integrals are discritized. Moreover, we proved cyclic sum formulas for…
We interpret tensors on a smooth manifold M as differential forms over a graded commutative algebra called the algebra of iterated differential forms over M. This allows us to put standard tensor calculus in a new differentially closed…

In this paper we develop further and refine the method of differential equations for computing Feynman integrals. In particular, we show that an additional iterative structure emerges for finite loop integrals. As a concrete non-trivial…
We introduce a notion of integration defined from filters over families of finite sets. This procedure corresponds to determining the average value of functions whose range lies in any algebraic structure in which finite averages make…
Iterated loop algebras are by definition obtained by repeatedly applying the loop construction, familiar from the theory of affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras, to a given base algebra. Our interest in this iterated construction is motivated by…
