The mode problem on the factored 3--sphere is applied to field theory calculations for massless fields of spin 0, 1/2 and 1. The degeneracies on the factors, including lens spaces, are neatly derived in a geometric fashion. Vacuum energies…
In this paper, we investigate the relationship between positive definite functions on the unit sphere $\sph$ and on the Euclidean space $\RR^d$. For the dimension $d$ to be odd, a new technique is developed to establish the inheritance of…
We define positive and strictly positive definite functions on a domain and study these functions on a list of regular domains. The list includes the unit ball, conic surface, hyperbolic surface, solid hyperboloid, and simplex. Each of…

In this paper we prove a quaternionic positive real lemma as well as its generalized version, in case the associated kernel has negative squares for slice hyperholomorphic functions. We consider the case of functions with positive real part…
The functional determinants of the GJMS scalar operators, P_{2k}, on even-dimensional spheres are computed via Barnes multiple gamma functions relying on the numerical availability of the digamma function. For the critical k=d/2 case, it is…
Field localization on 2-dim extra space is considered in the framework of f(R) gravity. It is shown that an interference of local matter energy distribution and a metric of the extra space form a point-like defect - 4-dim brane. The…
Within the scheme of modified gravity, an exponential Lagrangian density will be considered, and the corresponding scalar-tensor description will be addressed for both positive and negative values of the cosmological constant. For negative…
We use an elliptic system of equations with complex coefficients for a set of complex-valued tensor fields as a tool to construct infinite-dimensional families of non-singular stationary black holes, real-valued Lorentzian solutions of the…
An expression in the form of an easily computed integral is given for the determinant of the scalar GJMS operator on an odd--dimensional sphere. Manipulation yields a sum formula for the logdet in terms of the logdets of the ordinary…
In the framework of multidimensional $f(R)$ gravity, we study the metrics of compact extra dimensions assuming that our 4D space has the de Sitter metric. Manifolds described by such metrics could be formed at the inflationary and even…
Starting with geometrical premises, we infer the existence of fundamental cosmological scalar fields. We then consider physically relevant situations in which spacetime metric is induced by one or, in general, by two scalar fields, in…
A function $f$ from a domain in $\mathbb{R}^3$ to the quaternions is said to be inframonogenic if $\overline{\partial}\, f\overline{\partial} =0$, where $\overline{\partial} = \partial/\partial x_0+ (\partial/\partial…
We present an overview of the existing methods for computing functional determinants, and outline a possible way forward for Hamiltonians of higher dimensions without radial symmetry.
In this paper, by using the atomic decomposition theory of weighted Herz-type Hardy spaces, we will obtain some strong type and weak type estimates for intrinsic square functions including the Lusin area function, Littlewood-Paley $\mathcal…
Subspaces obtained by the orthogonal projection of locally supported square-integrable vector fields onto the Hardy spaces $H_+(\mathbb{S})$ and $H_-(\mathbb{S})$, respectively, play a role in various inverse potential field problems since…
We derive simple expressions to regularise functional determinants from fluctuations of fields with spin 0, 1/2, and 1. These are important for the precise dimensionful determination of false vacuum decay rates. We work in $D = 4$ Euclidean…
Scalar fields coupled to three-dimensional gravity are considered. We uncover a scaling symmetry present in the black hole reduced action, and use it to prove a Smarr formula valid for any potential. We also prove that non-rotating hairy…
Recurrences for positive definite functions in terms of the space dimension have been used in several fields of applications. Such recurrences typically relate to properties of the system of special functions characterizing the geometry of…
