A new convenient method of describing flat convex compact sets is proposed. It generalizes classical trigonometric functions $\sin$ and $\cos$. Apparently, this method may be very useful for explicit description of solutions of optimal…
An interesting deformation of the Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity has been proposed by Witten by adding a potential term $U(\phi)$ as a self-coupling of the scalar dilaton field. During calculating the path integral over fields, a constraint…
In this book chapter we study the Riemannian Geometry of the density registration problem: Given two densities (not necessarily probability densities) defined on a smooth finite dimensional manifold find a diffeomorphism which transforms…
We study two variants of the mirror descent-ascent (MDA) algorithm for solving min-max problems on the space of measures: simultaneous and alternating. We work under assumptions of convexity-concavity and relative smoothness of the payoff…
We continue our study, initiated in our earlier paper, of Riemann surfaces with constant curvature and isolated conic singularities. Using the machinery developed in that earlier paper of extended configuration families of simple divisors,…
An attempt is made to formulate Gaiotto's S-duality relations in an explicit quantitative form. Formally the problem is that of evaluation of the Racah coefficients for the Virasoro algebra, and we approach it with the help of the matrix…
The purpose of the present paper is to investigate cohomologies and deformations of weighted Rota-Baxter Lie algebras as well as weighted Rota-Baxter associative algebras with derivations. First we introduce a notion of weighted Rota-Baxter…
We present an extended version of Riemannian geometry suitable for the description of current formulations of double field theory (DFT). This framework is based on graded manifolds and it yields extended notions of symmetries, dynamical…
In the standard approach to Finsler geometry the metric is defined as a vertical Hessian and the Chern or Cartan connections appear as just two among many possible natural linear connections on the pullback tangent bundle. Here it is shown…
This paper constructs a Riemann surface associated to the icosahedron and discusses the geodesics associated to a flat metric on this surface. Because of the icosahedral symmetry, this is a distinguished special case of the example treated…
One of the questions investigated in deformation theory is to determine to which algebras can a given associative algebra be deformed. In this paper we investigate a different but related question, namely: for a given associative…
This paper deals with the introduction of a decomposition of the deformations of curved thin beams, with section of order $\delta$, which takes into account the specific geometry of such beams. A deformation $v$ is split into an elementary…
In previous work we established a multilinear duality and factorisation theory for norm inequalities for pointwise weighted geometric means of positive linear operators defined on normed lattices. In this paper we extend the reach of the…
We develop a general deformation principle for families of Riemannian metrics on smooth manifolds with possibly non-compact boundary, preserving lower scalar curvature bounds. The principle is used in order to strengthen boundary…
Ever since Yau's non-constructive existence proof of Ricci-flat metrics on Calabi-Yau manifolds, finding their explicit construction remains a major obstacle to development of both string theory and algebraic geometry. Recent computational…
In this work, we consider a two-dimensional (2D) dilaton gravity model where the dilaton kinetic term $\mathcal{X}$ is modified by an additional derivative coupling term $\alpha\mathcal{X}^2$. In the case with a canonical scalar matter…
A new class of deformation of the matrix model of M-theory is considered. The deformation is analogous to the so-called $\b$-deformation of $D=3+1$, $\mN=4$ Super Yang-Mills theory, which preserves the conformal symmetry. It is shown that…
In this paper, we introduce horizontal and vertical warped product Finsler manifold. We prove that every C-reducible or proper Berwaldian doubly warped product Finsler manifold is Riemannian. Then, we find the relation between Riemmanian…
In this paper we argue that when gauge invariance is taken into consideration, there is no consistent geometric framework of Finsler class that can accommodate Randers type spaces. In this context, an alternative non-Finslerian framework…
We calculate some infinite sums containing the digamma function in closed-form. These sums are related either to the incomplete beta function or to the Bessel functions. The calculations yield interesting new results as by-products, such as…
