An invariant definition of mass in asymptotically de-Sitter space-times is given that relies on the existence of a time-like Killing vector on a sphere surrounding the mass but does not require going to an asymptotic region. In particular…
We discuss the different definitions of the mass of a halo in common use and how one may convert between them. Using N-body simulations we show that mass estimates based on spherical averages are much more tightly correlated with each other…
The observed stellar kinematics of dispersion-supported galaxies are often used to measure dynamical masses. Recently, several analytical relationships between the stellar line-of-sight velocity dispersion, the projected (2D) or deprojected…
The n-dimensional hypergeometric integrals associated with a hypersphere arrangement are formulated by the pairing of n-dimensional twisted cohomology and its dual. Under the condition of general position there are stated some results which…
In this article, we introduce and investigate polynomial curvelets on spheres, which form a class of Parseval frames for $L^2(\mathbb{S}^{d-1})$, $d \geq 3$. The proposed construction offers a directionally sensitive multiscale…
The paper advances the hypothesis that the multi-field is a determinable, that is, a physical object characterized by indeterminate values with respect to some properties. The multi-field is a realist interpretation of the wave function in…
We evaluate the variance of the number of lattice points in a small randomly rotated spherical ball on a surface of 3-dimensional sphere centered at the origin. Previously, Bourgain, Rudnick, and Sarnak showed conditionally on the…
We derive a Jacobi-Trudi type formula for Jack functions of rectangular shapes. In this formula, we make use of a hyperdeterminant, which is Cayley's simple generalization of the determinant. In addition, after developing the general theory…
We consider quantum general relativity in three dimensions with a positive cosmological constant. The Hartle-Hawking wave function is computed as a function of metric data at asymptotic future infinity. The analytic continuation from…
The standard formula for the change in the effective action under a conformal transformation is extended to the case when the boundary is piecewise smooth. We then find the functional determinants of the scalar Laplacian on regions of the…
A recently formulated conjecture of Gamayun, Iorgov and Lisovyy gives an asymptotic expansion of the Jimbo--Miwa--Ueno isomonodromic $\tau$-function for certain Painlev\'e transcendents. The coefficients in this expansion are given in terms…
We prove some sharp Hardy inequalities for domains with a spherical symmetry. In particular, we prove an inequality for domains of the unit $n$-dimensional sphere with a point singularity, and an inequality for functions defined on the…
We consider an important class of derivative contracts written on multiple assets (so-called spread options) which are traded on a wide range of financial markets. The present paper introduces a new approximation method of density functions…
The recently suggested quasi-local spin-angular momentum expressions, based on the Bramson superpotential and on the holomorphic or anti-holomorphic spinor fields, are calculated for large spheres near the future null infinity of…
We combine data from a number of N-body simulations to predict the abundance of dark halos in Cold Dark Matter universes over more than 4 orders of magnitude in mass. A comparison of different simulations suggests that the dominant…
We construct a directional spin wavelet framework on the sphere by generalising the scalar scale-discretised wavelet transform to signals of arbitrary spin. The resulting framework is the only wavelet framework defined natively on the…
Unfolded equations of motion for symmetric massive bosonic fields of any spin in Minkowski and (A)dS spaces are presented. Manifestly gauge invariant action for a spin $s \ge 2$ massive field in any dimension is constructed in terms of…
The massive spinning particle in six-dimensional Minkowski space is described as a mechanical system with the configuration space ${\ R}% ^{5,1}\times {\ CP}^3$. The action functional of the model is unambigiously determined by the…
The angular power spectrum of a stationary random field on the sphere is estimated from the needlet coefficients of a single realization, observed with increasingly fine resolution. The estimator we consider is similar to the one recently…
In this work we start by determining all irreducible spherical functions $\Phi$ of any $K $-type associated to the pair $(G,K)=(\SO(4),\SO(3))$. The functions $P=P(u)$ corresponding to the irreducible spherical functions of a fixed $K$-type…
