An important open problem in geometric complex analysis is to find algorithms for explicit determination of basic functionals intrinsically connected with conformal and quasiconformal maps, such as their Teichmuller and Grunsky norms,…
The general dual volume $\dveV(K)$ and the general dual Orlicz curvature measure $\deV(K, \cdot)$ were recently introduced for functions $G: (0, \infty)\times \sphere\rightarrow (0, \infty)$ and convex bodies $K$ in $\R^n$ containing the…
Recently, a combinatorial interpretation of Baldoni and Vergne's generalized Lidskii formula for the volume of a flow polytope was developed by Benedetti et al.. This converts the problem of computing Kostant partition functions into a…
Continuous dually epi-translation invariant valuations on convex functions are characterized in terms of the Fourier-Laplace transform of the associated Goodey-Weil distributions. This description is used to obtain integral representations…
Let $g$ be a finite dimensional real Lie algebra. Let $r:g\to End(V)$ be a representation of $g$ in a finite dimensional real vector space. Let $C_{V}=(End(V)\tens S(g))^{g}$ be the algebra of $End(V)$-valued invariant differential…
Gaussian processes are widely employed as versatile modelling and predictive tools in spatial statistics, functional data analysis, computer modelling and diverse applications of machine learning. They have been widely studied over…
The Minkowski tensors are valuations on the space of convex bodies in ${\mathbb R}^n$ with values in a space of symmetric tensors, having additional covariance and continuity properties. They are extensions of the intrinsic volumes, and as…
We consider the class non-surjective irreducible endomorphisms of the free group $F_n$. We show that such an endomorphism $\phi$ is topologically represented by a simplicial immersion $f:G \rightarrow G$ of a marked graph $G$; along the way…
We find a relationship between the dynamics of the Gaussian wave packet and the dynamics of the corresponding Gaussian Wigner function from the Hamiltonian/symplectic point of view. The main result states that the momentum map corresponding…
It is generally assumed that quantum field theory (QFT) is gauge invariant. However it is well known that non-gauge invariant terms appear in various calculations. This problem was examined in Refs. [3] and [4] and it was shown that at the…
Continuous, dually epi-translation invariant valuations on the space of finite-valued convex functions on $\mathbb{C}^n$ that are invariant under the unitary group are investigated. It is shown that elements belonging to the dense subspace…
We study the slicing inequality for the surface area instead of volume. This is the question whether there exists a constant $\alpha_n$ depending (or not) on the dimension $n$ so that $$S(K)\leq\alpha_n|K|^{\frac{1}{n}}\max_{\xi\in…
The "old-new" concept of convex-hull function was investigated by several authors in the last seventy years. A recent research on it led to some other volume functions as the covariogram function, the widthness function or the so-called…
Let $K$ be a convex body in $\R^d$, let $j\in\{1, ..., d-1\}$, and let $\varrho$ be a positive and continuous probability density function with respect to the $(d-1)$-dimensional Hausdorff measure on the boundary $\partial K$ of $K$. Denote…
Every locally normal representation of a local chiral conformal quantum theory is covariant with respect to global conformal transformations, if this theory is diffeomorphism covariant in its vacuum representation. The unitary, strongly…
A covariant spin-foam formulation of quantum gravity has been recently developed, characterized by a kinematics which appears to match well the one of canonical loop quantum gravity. In particular, the geometrical observable giving the area…
This is the third of a series of papers on a new equivariant cohomology that takes values in a vertex algebra, and contains and generalizes the classical equivariant cohomology of a manifold with a Lie group action a la H. Cartan. In this…
In a previous paper [M.~Hanada, H.~Kawai and Y.~Kimura, Prog. Theor. Phys. 114 (2005), 1295] it is shown that a covariant derivative on any n-dimensional Riemannian manifold can be expressed in terms of a set of n matrices, and a new…
The Gaussian curvature $K$ is a fundamental geometric quantity discovered by Gauss in the case of surfaces embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$. One can naturally extend the definition of the Gaussian curvature to arbitrary submanifolds of…
In this paper, we prove a KAM theorem in a-posteriori format, using the parameterization method to look invariant tori in non-autonomous Hamiltonian systems with $n$ degrees of freedom that depend periodically or quasi-periodically (QP) on…
