This book is mainly an exposition of the author's works and his joint works with his former students on explicit representations of finite-dimensional simple Lie algebras, related partial differential equations, linear orthogonal algebraic…
We study in detail the application of renormalisation theory to models of cluster aggregation and fragmentation of relevance to nucleation and growth processes. We investigate the Becker-Dorging equations, originally formulated to describe…
We study Lie-Rinehart algebra structures in the framework provided by a duality pairing of modules over a unital commutative associative algebra. Thus, we construct examples of Lie brackets corresponding to a fixed anchor map whose image is…
We apply Lie algebra deformation theory to the problem of identifying the stable form of the quantum relativistic kinematical algebra. As a warm up, given Galileo's conception of spacetime as input, some modest computer code we wrote zeroes…
Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) is a non-perturbative attempt at quantization of a classical phase space description of gravity in terms of $SU(2)$ connections and electric fields. As emphasized recently [1], on this phase space, classical…
We show how to use extended word series in the reduction of continuous and discrete dynamical systems to normal form and in the computation of formal invariants of motion in Hamiltonian systems. The manipulations required involve complex…
We extend a classical fact about deformations of groups of units of commutative rings to $\mathbb{E}_{\infty}$-ring spectra, and we use this result to provide a map of spectra generalizing the ordinary logarithmic derivative induced by an…
We completely characterize all nonlinear partial differential equations leaving a given finite-dimensional vector space of analytic functions invariant. Existence of an invariant subspace leads to a re duction of the associated dynamical…
We discuss conservation laws for gravity theories invariant under general coordinate and local Lorentz transformations. We demonstrate the possibility to formulate these conservation laws in many covariant and noncovariant(ly looking) ways.…
To study operator algebras with symmetries in a wide sense we introduce a notion of {\em relative convolution operators} induced by a Lie algebra. Relative convolutions recover many important classes of operators, which have been already…
The Universal Field Equations, recently constructed as examples of higher dimensional dynamical systems which admit an infinity of inequivalent Lagrangians are shown to be linearised by a Legendre transformation. This establishes the…
We study the properties of the logarithm of the derivative operator and show that its action on a constant is not zero, but yields the sum of the logarithmic function and the Euler-Mascheroni constant. We discuss more general aspects…
A renormalizable theory of gravity is obtained if the dimension-less 4-derivative kinetic term of the graviton, which classically suffers from negative unbounded energy, admits a sensible quantisation. We find that a 4-derivative degree of…
We study the behavior of the modular class of a Lie algebroid under general Lie algebroid morphisms by introducing the relative modular class. We investigate the modular classes of pull-back morphisms and of base-preserving morphisms…
We present a theory for the construction of renormalized kinetic equations to describe the dynamics of classical systems of particles in or out of equilibrium. A closed, self-consistent set of evolution equations is derived for the…
We review the structures imposed on perturbative QFT by the fact that its Feynman diagrams provide Hopf and Lie algebras. We emphasize the role which the Hopf algebra plays in renormalization by providing the forest formulas. We exhibit how…
We show in the framework of Pfaff systems theory, the functional dependences of the general analytic solutions of a suitable system of involutive differential equations describing the differences between the analytic solutions of the…
We investigate 4-dim gauge theories and gravitational theories with nonpolynomial actions containing an infinite series in covariant derivatives of the fields representing the expansion of a transcendental entire function. A class of entire…
The problem of renormalization of the semiclassical one-loop equations used in the non-equilibrium field theory is considered. Recently, the renormalizability of such equations has been justified for some special cases of classical field…
The study of the effective potential for non-renormalisable scalar SO(N) symmetric theories leads to recurrence relations for the coefficients of the leading logarithms. These relations can be transformed into generalised…
