We argue that conformal invariance in flat spacetime implies Weyl invariance in a general curved background metric for all unitary theories in spacetime dimensions $d \leq 10$. We also study possible curvature corrections to the Weyl…
In this paper, we investigate the singular values of a natural family of transfer operators twisted by large random permutation matrices. In the large N limit, we obtain a Weyl law for its singular values, valid asymptotically almost surely…
Weyl transverse gravity is a gravitational theory that is invariant under transverse diffeomorphisms and Weyl transformations. It is characterised by having the same classical solutions as general relativity while solving some of its issues…
The conformal anomaly (also known as the stress-energy trace anomaly) of an interacting quantum theory, associated with violation of Weyl (conformal) symmetry by quantum effects, can be amended if one endows the theory with a dilatation…
This is a partly expository article for the volume "Algebraic and Analytic Microlocal Analysis" on pointwise Weyl laws for spectral projections kernels in the Kaehler setting. We prove a 2-term pointwise Weyl law for projections onto sums…
The topological nature of the band structure of a Weyl semimetal leads to a number of unique transport and optical properties. For example, the description of the propagation of an electromagnetic wave in a Weyl semimetal with broken…
We investigate the possibility that the observed behavior of test particles outside galaxies, which is usually explained by assuming the existence of dark matter, is the result of the dynamical evolution of particles in a Weyl type…
On a closed manifold $M$, we consider a smooth vector field $X$ that generates an Anosov flow. Let $V\in C^{\infty}\left(M;\mathbb{R}\right)$ be a smooth function called potential. It is known that for any $C>0$, there exists some…
We study the spectral asymptotics of wave equations on certain compact spacetimes where some variant of the Weyl asymptotic law is valid. The simplest example is the spacetime $S^1 \times S^2$. For the Laplacian on $S^1 \times S^2$ the Weyl…
We consider Weyl gauge theories of gravity (WGTs), which are invariant both under local Poincar\'e transformations and local changes of scale. Such theories may be interpreted as gauge theories in Minkowski spacetime, but their…
We consider quantum maps induced by periodically-kicked scattering systems and discuss the computation of their resonance spectra in terms of complex scaling and sufficiently weak absorbing potentials. We also show that strong absorptive…
In this article, we investigate the interplay between the curvature operator, Weyl curvature, and the Hopf conjecture on compact Riemannian manifolds of even dimension. By decomposing the curvature operator into Hermitian components, we…
Causal systems describe the localizability of relativistic quantum systems complying with the principles of special relativity and elementary causality. At their classification we restrict ourselves to real mass and finite spinor systems.…
We expose at a previously unknown level of detail the features of the dynamics of trajectories that either evolve towards the Feigenbaum attractor or are captured by its matching repellor. Amongst these features are the following: i) The…
We generalize the work of Lindenstrauss and Venkatesh establishing Weyl's Law for cusp forms from the spherical spectrum to arbitrary Archimedean type. Weyl's law for the spherical spectrum gives an asymptotic formula for the number of cusp…
We study when the Jacobi operator associated to the Weyl conformal curvature tensor has constant eigenvalues on the bundle of unit spacelike or timelike tangent vectors. This leads to questions in the conformal geometry of pseudo-Riemannian…
An algorithm to obtain the Weyl anomaly in higher dimensions is presented. It is based on the heat-kernel method. Feynman rules, such as the vertex rule and the propagator rule, are given in (regularized) coordinate space. Graphical…
We study the particle spectrum and the unitarity of the generic n-dimensional Weyl-invariant quadratic curvature gravity theories around their (anti-)de Sitter [(A)dS] and flat vacua. Weyl symmetry is spontaneously broken in (A)dS and…
We compare the conventional description of the interaction of matter with the four known forces in the standard model with an alternative Weyl description in which the chiral coupling is extended to include gravity. The two are…
It was argued recently that conformal invariance in flat spacetime implies Weyl invariance in a general curved background for unitary theories and possible anomalies in the Weyl variation of scalar operators are identified. We argue that…
