Conformal properties of the topological gravitational terms in $D=2$, $D=4$ and $D=6$ are discussed. It is shown that in the last two cases the integrands of these terms, when being settled into the dimension $D-1$ and multiplied by a…

Recently a new technique in the harmonic analysis on symmetric spaces was suggested based on certain remarkable representations of affine and double affine Hecke algebras in terms of Dunkl and Demazure operators instead of Lie groups and…

A $(p,q)$-double form on a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ can be considered simultaneously as a vector-valued differential $p$-form over $M$ or alternatively as a vector-valued $q$-form. Accordingly, the usual Hodge-de Rham Laplacian on…
