We use a new, conformally-invariant method of analysis to test incomplete null geodesics approaching the singularity in a model of an evaporating black hole for the possibility of extensions of the conformal metric. In general, a local…
In this paper, we provide a comprehensive study of asymptotically flat spacetime in even dimensions $d\geq 4$. We analyze the most general boundary condition and asymptotic symmetry compatible with Penrose's definition of asymptotic null…
This article is the second of two in which we develop a geometric framework for analysing silent and anisotropic big bang singularities. In the present article, we record geometric conclusions obtained by combining the geometric framework…
Penrose's idea of asymptotic flatness provides a framework for understanding the asymptotic structure of gravitational fields of isolated systems at null infinity. However, the studies of the asymptotic behaviour of fields near spatial…
It is shown that self-dual theories generalize to four dimensions both the conformal and analytic aspects of two-dimensional conformal field theories. In the harmonic space language there appear several ways to extend complex analyticity…
The analysis of strings of $n$ random variables with geometric distribution has recently attracted renewed interest: Archibald et al. consider the number of distinct adjacent pairs in geometrically distributed words. They obtain the…
In this outline of a program, based on rigorous renormalization group theory, we introduce new definitions which allow one to formulate precise mathematical conjectures related to conformal invariance as studied by physicists in the area…
We discuss some global and semi-global existence and stability results obtained with the use of the conformal field equations.
This is a survey article on an old topic in classical analysis. We present some new developments in asymptotics in the last fifty years. We start with the classical method of Darboux and its generalizations, including an uniformity…
These are (not updated) notes from the lectures I gave at the NATO ASI ``Symmetric Functions 2001'' at the Isaac Newton Institute in Cambridge (June 25 -- July 6, 2001). Their goal is an informal introduction to asymptotic combinatorics…
Conformal prediction delivers prediction intervals with distribution-free coverage, but its intervals can look overconfident in regions where the model is extrapolating, because standard conformal scores do not explicitly represent…
In this thesis, the symmetry structure of gravitational theories at null infinity is studied further, in the case of pure gravity in four dimensions and also in the case of Einstein-Yang-Mills theory in $d$ dimensions with and without a…
We compare two recently proposed methods that combine ideas from conformal inference and quantile regression to produce locally adaptive and marginally valid prediction intervals under sample exchangeability (Romano et al., 2019;…
We review a framework for the conformal bootstrap that does not rely on positivity and treats the infinite tower of high-dimension OPE contributions to conformal correlators through dispersion relations and neural networks. We apply it to…
This is a paper based on a talk given at the conference on Conformal Geometry which held at Roscoff in France in the 2008 summer. We study some aspects of the equation arising from the problem of the existence on a given closed Riemannian…
We study conformally compact metrics satisfying the Lovelock equations, which generalize the Einstein equation. We show that these metrics admit polyhomogeneous expansions, thereby naturally realizing the Fefferman-Graham expansion, which…
A system of relativistic Snyder particles with mutual two-body interaction that lives in a Non-Commutative Snyder geometry is studied. The underlying novel symplectic structure is a coupled and extended version of (single particle) Snyder…
This work may be defined as a modern philosophical approach to theoretical physics. Since ancient times science and philosophy evolved in parallel, thus renewing from time to time the epochal paradigms of human thought. We could not…
The starting point of this work was an intriguing similarity between the behaviour of fields near a degenerate horizon and near the infinity of an asymptotically flat spacetime, as revealed by the scattering theory for Dirac fields in the…
