We introduce the symplectic group $\mathrm{Sp}_2(A,\sigma)$ over a noncommutative algebra $A$ with an anti-involution $\sigma$. We realize several classical Lie groups as $\mathrm{Sp}_2$ over various noncommutative algebras, which provides…

The constraints of $BF$ topological gauge theories are used to construct Hamiltonians which are anti-commutators of the BRST and anti-BRST operators. Such Hamiltonians are a signature of Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFT's). By…

We consider functions of Wiener--Hopf type operators on the Hilbert space $L^2(\mathbb R^d)$. It has been known for a long time that the quasi-classical asymptotics for traces of resulting operators strongly depend on the smoothness of the…

A representation theorem for non-semibounded Hermitian quadratic forms in terms of a (non-semibounded) self-adjoint operator is proven. The main assumptions are closability of the Hermitian quadratic form, the direct integral structure of…

We study operators on a singular manifold, here of conical or edge type, and develop a new general approach of representing asymptotics of solutions to elliptic equations close to the singularities. The idea is to construct so-called…

We derive an asymptotic formula for operator product expansion coefficients of heavy operators in two dimensional conformal field theory. This follows from modular invariance of the genus two partition function, and generalises the…

In this work, we study the asymptotic geometry of the mapping class group and Teichmueller space. We introduce tools for analyzing the geometry of `projection' maps from these spaces to curve complexes of subsurfaces; from this we obtain…

We consider the noncommutative space $\mathbb{R}^3_\lambda$, a deformation of the algebra of functions on $\mathbb{R}^3$ which yields a "foliation" of $\mathbb{R}^3$ into fuzzy spheres. We first construct a natural matrix base adapted to…

We consider the quantum mechanics of a particle on a noncommutative two-sphere with the coordinates obeying an SU(2)-algebra. The momentum operator can be constructed in terms of an $SU(2)\times SU(2)$-extension and the Heisenberg algebra…

The present paper is the companion of [1] in which we proposed a scheme that tries to derive the Quantum Field Theory (QFT) on Curved Spacetimes (CST) limit from background independent Quantum General Relativity (QGR). The constructions of…

The spectrum of chiral operators in supersymmetric quiver gauge theories is typically much larger in the free limit, where the superpotential terms vanish. We find that the finite N counting of operators in any free quiver theory, with a…
