As shown in earlier work, skew-adjoint linear differential operators, mapping efforts into flows, give rise to Dirac structures on a bounded spatial domain by a proper definition of boundary variables. In the present paper this is extended…

A discretisation of differential geometry using the Whitney forms of algebraic topology is consistently extended via the introduction of a pairing on the space of chains. This pairing of chains enables us to give a definition of the…

Differential operators on Schwartz distributions conventionally are defined as the transpose of differential operators on functions with compact support. They do not exhaust all differential operators. We follow algebraic formalism of…

Let $R$ be an integral domain of characteristic zero. We prove that a function $D\colon R\to R$ is a derivation of order $n$ if and only if $D$ belongs to the closure of the set of differential operators of degree $n$ in the product…

Derivatives and integration operators are well-studied examples of linear operators that commute with scaling up to a fixed multiplicative factor; i.e., they are scale-invariant. Fractional order derivatives (integration operators) also…

In this paper we solve some differential equations in the $D_h$ derivative in Ward's sense. We use a special metric in the formal power series ring $\K[[x]]$. The solutions of that equations are giving in terms of fixed points for certain…

On differential manifolds with spinor structure, it is possible to express the Euler and Pontryagin currents in terms of tensors that also appear as source in the Dirac equation. It is hence possible to tie concepts rooted in geometry and…

Using the example of a Dirac particle in external static fields, Dirac theory is reformulated as a one-particle quantum theory in the space of normalized two-component spinors. In this formulation, the Dirac operator ``splits'' into two…
