The loop equation satisfied by Wilson's loops in QCD is reformulated as a functional Laplace equation. Discretizing the loop space by polygons, Green's function of the functional Laplacian is represented as a path integral of the Euclidean…

We quantise orbits of the adjoint group action on elements of the sl(2,R) Lie algebra. The path integration along elliptic slices is akin to the coadjoint orbit quantization of compact Lie groups, and the calculation of the characters of…

A superintegrable system is, roughly speaking, a system that allows more integrals of motion than degrees of freedom. This review is devoted to finite dimensional classical and quantum superintegrable systems with scalar potentials and…
We obtain a new important basic result on splice-quotient singularities in an elegant combinatorial-geometric way: every level of the divisorial filtration of the ring of functions is generated by monomials of the defining coordinate…
We consider one-loop tensor and scalar integrals, which occur in a massless quantum field theory and we report on the implementation into a numerical program of an algorithm for the automated computation of these one-loop integrals. The…
It has been a long-standing challenge to define a canonical loop integrand for non-supersymmetric gluon scattering amplitudes in the planar limit. Naive integrands are inflicted with $1/0$ ambiguities associated with tadpoles and massless…
The paper is concerned with three types of cubic splines over a triangulation that are characterized by three degrees of freedom associated with each vertex of the triangulation. The splines differ in computational complexity, polynomial…
This article treats the question of fundamentality of the translates of a polyharmonic spline kernel (also known as a surface spline) in the space of continuous functions on a compact set $\Omega\subset \RR^d$ when the translates are…
A system of two particles with spin s=0 and s=1/2 respectively, moving in a plane is considered. It is shown that such a system with a nontrivial spin-orbit interaction can allow an 8 dimensional Lie algebra of first-order integrals of…
In this paper we discuss the geometric integrand expansion of the five-point Wilson loop with one Lagrangian insertion in maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. We construct the integrand corresponding to an all-loop class of…
An $S$-hypersimplex for $S \subseteq \{0,1, \dots,d\}$ is the convex hull of all $0/1$-vectors of length $d$ with coordinate sum in $S$. These polytopes generalize the classical hypersimplices as well as cubes, crosspolytopes, and…
