We study Sobolev spaces of radial functions on spherically symmetric Riemannian manifolds. Using geodesic polar coordinates, we give a sharp one-dimensional reduction: a radial function belongs to the Sobolev space on the manifold if and…
Antonymous functions are real-valued functions on the Stone spectrum of a von Neumann algebra R. They correspond to the self-adjoint operators in R, which are interpreted as observables in quantum physics. Antonymous functions turn out to…
In two-dimensional statistical physics, correlation functions of the O(N) and Potts models may be written as sums over configurations of non-intersecting loops. We define sums associated to a large class of combinatorial maps (also known as…

Positive definite functions of compact support are widely used for radial basis function approximation as well as for estimation of spatial processes in geostatistics. Several constructions of such functions for ${\mathbb R}^d$ are based…
The purpose of this paper is to establish L^p error estimates, a Bernstein inequality, and inverse theorems for approximation by a space comprising spherical basis functions located at scattered sites on the unit n-sphere. In particular,…
Matrix-valued spherical functions related to the quantum symmetric pair for the quantum analogue of $(SU(2) \times SU(2), \text{diag})$ are introduced and studied in detail. The quantum symmetric pair is given in terms of a quantised…

We survey many of the important properties of spherically symmetric spacetimes as follows. We present several different ways of describing a spherically symmetric spacetime and the resulting metrics. We then focus our discussion on an…
We consider the averages of a function $ f$ on $ \mathbb R ^{n}$ over spheres of radius $ 0< r< \infty $ given by $ A_{r} f (x) = \int_{\mathbb S ^{n-1}} f (x-r y) \; d \sigma (y)$, where $ \sigma $ is the normalized rotation invariant…
We consider the problem of graph-matching on a network of 3D shapes with uncertainty quantification. We assume that the pairwise shape correspondences are efficiently represented as \emph{functional maps}, that match real-valued functions…
We reprove some results about the Minakshisundaram-Pleijel zeta functions of spheres and study their values at nonpositive integers. The results are extended to zeta functions of real projective spaces.
The spinor representations of the orthosymplectic Lie superalgebras osp(m|n) are considered and constructed. These are infinite-dimensional irreducible representations, of which the superdimension coincides with the dimension of the spinor…
We investigate the subclass of reversible functions that are self-inverse and relate them to reversible circuits that are equal to their reverse circuit, which are called palindromic circuits. We precisely determine which self-inverse…
We suggest a certain type of conformal $n$-point function of scalar primaries where the scalar operators share the same scaling dimension. The conformal correlation functions are obtained in momentum space, and we show that they satisfy the…
In this paper, we present the implicit equations for one special class of real-valued spherical harmonics with octahedral symmetry. Based on this representation, we construct the rotationally invariant measure of deviation from the…
A method of solving the Einstein equations with a scalar field is presented. It is applied to find higher dimensional vacuum metrics invariant under the group SO(n + 1) acting on n-dimensional spheres.
According to Browder if $4n+2\neq 2^{t+1}-2$ then the Kervaire invariant of the cobordism class of a $(4n+2)$-dimensional manifold $M^{4n+2}$ vanishes and $M^{2^{t+1}-2}$ is of Kervaire invariant one if and only if…
Given a continuous function $\phi$ defined on a domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^m\times\mathbb{R}^n$, we show that if a Pr\'ekopa-type result holds for $\phi+\psi$ for any non-negative convex function $\psi$ on $\Omega$, then $\phi$ must be…
We classify simple singularities of functions on space curves. We show that their bifurcation sets have properties very similar to those of functions on smooth manifolds and complete intersections [1,2]: the k(pi, 1)-theorem for the…
