The generalized covariant derivative on 5-dimen-sional space including 1-dimensional extra compact space is defined, and, by use of it, the Weinberg-Salam model is reconstructed. The spontaneous breakdown of symmetry takes place owing to…
We study the cohomology of the Schwinger term arising in second quantization of the class of observables belonging to the restricted general linear algebra. We prove that, for all pseudodifferential operators in 3+1 dimensions of this type,…
In this paper, we study the perturbative aspects of the half-twisted variant of Witten's topological A-model coupled to a non-dynamical gauge field with Kahler target space X being a G-manifold. Our main objective is to furnish a purely…
A bi-invariant differential 2-form on a Lie group G is a highly constrained object, being determined by purely linear data: an Ad-invariant alternating bilinear form on the Lie algebra of G. On a compact connected Lie group these have an…
In this second part of our series of papers, we develop an abstract framework suitable for de Rham complexes that depend on a parameter belonging to an arbitrary Banach space. Our primary focus is on spectral perturbation problems and the…
We introduce a class of densely defined, unbounded, 2-Hochschild cocycles ([PT]) on finite von Neumann algebras $M$. Our cocycles admit a coboundary, determined by an unbounded operator on the standard Hilbert space associated to the von…
In this paper, we develop a new approach to the deformation theory of restricted Lie-Rinehart algebras in positive characteristic, based on the deformation theory of restricted morphisms introduced in our earlier work. We provide a full…
We develop the cohomology theory of color Lie superalgebras due to Scheunert--Zhang in a framework of nonhomogeneous quadratic Koszul algebras. In this approach, the Chevalley--Eilenberg complex of a color Lie algebra becomes a standard…
We introduce the notion of cyclic cohomology of an A-infinity algebra and show that the deformations of an A-infinity algebra which preserve an invariant inner product are classified by this cohomology. We use this result to construct some…
We investigate the first cohomology space associated with the embedding of the Lie superalgebra $\cK(2)$ of contact vector fields on the (1,2)-dimensional supercircle $S^{1\mid 2}$ in the Lie superalgebra $\cS\Psi \cD \cO(S^{1\mid 2})$ of…
We compute explicit bases for the de Rham cohomology of cyclic covers of the projective line defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\geq 0$. For both Kummer and Artin-Schreier extensions, we describe precise…
Grothendieck has proved that each class in the de Rham cohomology of a smooth complex affine variety can be represented by a differential form with polynomial coefficients. After having proved a single exponential bound for the degrees of…
Superconformal symmetry in six-dimensions is analyzed in terms of coordinate transformations on superspace. A superconformal Killing equation is derived and its solutions are identified in terms of supertranslations, dilations, Lorentz…
We consider various $A_{\infty}$-algebras of differential (super)forms, which are related to gauge theories and demonstrate explicitly how certain reformulations of gauge theories lead to the transfer of the corresponding…
On a given manifold M, the Nijenhuis bracket makes the superspace of vector-valued differential forms into a Lie superalgebra that can be interpreted as the centralizer of the exterior differential considered as a vector field on the…
The purpose of this paper is to study Lie-Rinehart superalgebras over characteristic zero fields, which are consisting of a supercommutative associative superalgebra $A$ and a Lie superalgebra $L$ that are compatible in a certain way. We…
A new (1+1)-dimensional integrable system, i. e. the super coupled Korteweg-de Vries (cKdV) system, has been constructed by a super extension of the well-known (1+1)-dimensional cKdV system. For this new system, a novel symmetry constraint…
The Penrose triangle, staircase, and related ``impossible objects'' have long been understood as related to first cohomology $H^1$: the obstruction to extending locally consistent interpretations around a loop. This paper develops a…
We approach the question of complexification of the diffeomorphism group of the circle by considering real-analytic maps from the circle into the punctured complex plane with winding number +1. Such complex deformations form an…
We give a combinatorial description (including explicit differential-form bases) for the cohomology groups of the space of n distinct nonzero complex numbers, with coefficients in rank-one local systems which are of finite monodromy around…
