We initiate the study of fine $p$-(super)minimizers, associated with $p$-harmonic functions, on finely open sets in metric spaces, where $1 < p < \infty$. After having developed their basic theory, we obtain the $p$-fine continuity of the…
We find coordinates, the metric tensor, the inverse metric tensor and the Laplace-Beltrami operator for the orbit space of Hamiltonian SU(2) gauge theory on a finite, rectangular lattice. This is done using a complete axial gauge fixing.…
We show that in the analytic category, given a Riemannian metric $g$ on a hypersurface $M\subset \Z$ and a symmetric tensor $W$ on $M$, the metric $g$ can be locally extended to a Riemannian Einstein metric on $Z$ with second fundamental…
If F is a type-definable family of commensurable subsets, subgroups or sub-vector spaces in a metric structure, then there is an invariant subset, subgroup or sub-vector space commensurable with F. This in particular applies to…
Massive gravity may be viewed as a suitable limit of bimetric gravity. The limiting procedure can lead to an interesting interplay between the "background" and "foreground" metrics in a cosmological context. The fact that in bimetric…
In this paper, we show that the metric space Q is a positively-curved space (PC-space) in the sense of Alexandrov. We also discuss some issues like metric tangent cone and exponential map of Q. Then we give a stratification of this metric…
We consider the metric transformation of metric measure spaces/pyramids. We clarify the conditions to obtain the convergence of the sequence of transformed spaces from that of the original sequence, and, conversely, to obtain the…
The paper is concerned with b-metric and generalized b-metric spaces. One proves the existence of the completion of a generalized b-metric space and some fixed point results. The behavior of Lipschitz functions on b-metric spaces of…
The investigations on higher-order type theories and on the related notion of parametric polymorphism constitute the technical counterpart of the old foundational problem of the circularity (or impredicativity) of second and higher order…
We initiate the study of ends of non-metrizable manifolds and introduce the notion of short and long ends. Using the theory developed, we provide a characterization of (non-metrizable) surfaces that can be written as the topological sum of…
We study the moduli spaces of flat SL(r)- and PGL(r)-connections, or equivalently, Higgs bundles, on an algebraic curve. These spaces are noncompact Calabi-Yau orbifolds; we show that they can be regarded as mirror partners in two different…
This monograph is centred at the intersection of three mathematical topics, that are theoretical in nature, yet with motivations and relevance deep rooted in applications: the linear inverse problems on abstract, in general…
Given a space $X$, a $\sigma$-algebra $\mathfrak{B}$ on $X$ and a measurable map $T:X \to X$, we say that a measure $\mu$ is half-invariant if, for any $B \in \mathfrak{B}$, we have $\mu(T^{-1}(B)\leq \mu (B)$. In this note we present a…
Dimensional types of metric scattered spaces are investigated. Revised proofs of Mazurkiewicz-Sierpi\'nski and Knaster-Urbanik theorems are presented. Embeddable properties of countable metric spaces are generalized onto uncountable metric…
Recently, the construction of ghost-free nonlinear massive spin-2 interactions solved a long outstanding problem in classical field theory. The consistent formulation requires a second rank-two tensor (or metric) and therefore has the form…
It is known that the space of boundedly finite integer-valued measures on a complete separable metric space becomes itself a complete separable metric space when endowed with the weak-hash metric. It is also known that convergence under…
We investigate bang-bang control problems and the possibility to apply Newton's method to solve such kind of problems numerically. To this end, we show that the signum function is Fr\'echet differentiable between appropriate function…
This thesis is devoted to various questions connected with duality. It is composed of two parts. The first part discusses some aspects of timelike T-duality. We explore the possibility of compactification of supergravity theories with…
Let $M$ be a complete metric $ANR$-space such that for any metric compactum $K$ the function space $C(K,M)$ contains a dense set of Bing (resp., Krasinkiewicz) maps. It is shown that $M$ has the following property: If $f\colon X\to Y$ is a…
The admissibility of a gauge-fixing is governed by the invertibility of $\Delta=\{\sigma^a,\gamma_b\}$ where $\sigma^a$ are gauge-fixing conditions and $\gamma_b$ are independent first-class constraints. We prove, via the Schur complement,…
