The positive definiteness of real quadratic forms with convolution structures plays an important role in stability analysis for time-stepping schemes for nonlocal operators.In this work, we present a novel analysis tool to handle discrete…
The method of dimensional recurrences proposed by one of the authors [1,2] is applied to the evaluation of the pentagon-type scalar integral with on-shell external legs and massless internal lines. For the first time, an analytic result…
Bell conjectured that a positive Wigner function does not allow violation of the inequalities imposed by local hidden variable theories. A requirement for this conjecture is "when phase space measurements are performed". We introduce the…
We consider two types of convolutions ($\ast$ and $\star$) of functions on spaces of finite configurations (finite subsets of a phase space), and some their properties are studied. A connection of the $\ast$-convolution with the convolution…
We consider derivation of the effective potential for a scalar field in curved space-time within the physical regularization scheme, using two sorts of covariant cut-off regularizations. The first one is based on the local momentum…
The presence of a boundary (or defect) in a conformal field theory allows one to generalize the notion of an exactly marginal deformation. Without a boundary, one must find an operator of protected scaling dimension $\Delta$ equal to the…
The in-in path integral of a scalar field propagating in a fixed background is formulated in a suitable function space. The free kinetic operator, whose inverse gives the propagators of the in-in perturbation theory, becomes essentially…
To a generalized tight continuous frame in a Hilbert space $\H$ indexed by a locally compact space $\Si$ endowed with a Radon measure, one associates a coorbit theory converting spaces of functions on $\Si$ in spaces of vectors comparable…
Recent advances in image and signal processing have drawn on geometric function theory, particularly coefficient estimate problems. Motivated by their significance, we introduce a class of starlike functions related to a balloon-shaped…
Let $d,k$ be positive integers. We call generalized spaces the cartesian product of the $d$-dimensional sphere, $\mathbb{S}^d$, with the $k$-dimensional Euclidean space, $\mathbb{R}^k$. We consider the class ${\mathcal P}(\mathbb{S}^d…
Nowadays a great attention has been focused on the discrete fractional Laplace operator as the natural counterpart of the continuous one. In this paper, we discretize the fractional Laplace operator $(-\Delta)^{s}$ for an arbitrary finite…
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…
In this paper, we introduce a new operator, $\mathcal{S}$, which is closely related to the restriction problem for spheres in $\mathbb{F}_q^d$, the $d$-dimensional vector space over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with $q$ elements. The…
The study of covariances (or positive definite functions) on the sphere (the Earth, in our motivation) goes back to Bochner and Schoenberg (1940--42) and to the first author (1969, 1973), among others. Extending to the geotemporal case…
In a previous paper we considered a positive function f, uniquely determined for s>0 by the requirements f(1)=1, log(1/f) is convex and the functional equation f(s)=psi(f(s+1)) with psi(s)=s-1/s. We prove that the meromorphic extension of f…
We derive a systematic treatment of one-loop effective potentials for interacting scalar fields in curved spacetimes, providing a general formula valid in arbitrary geometries and explicit results for de Sitter and anti-de Sitter…
Assuming the existence of the dS/CFT correspondence, we construct local scalar fields with $m^2>\left( \frac{d}{2} \right)^2$ in de Sitter space by smearing over conformal field theory operators on the future/past boundary. To maintain bulk…
We introduce a general framework for the construction of polynomial frames in $L^2(\mathbb{S}^{d-1})$, $d \geq 3$, where the frame functions are obtained as rotated versions of an initial sequence of polynomials $\Psi^j$, $j\in…
We prove that if the Hausdorff dimension of a compact subset of ${\mathbb R}^d$ is greater than $\frac{d+1}{2}$, then the set of angles determined by triples of points from this set has positive Lebesgue measure. Sobolev bounds for…
This paper first shows that the Riemann localisation property holds for the Fourier-Laplace series partial sum for sufficiently smooth functions on the two-dimensional sphere, but does not hold for spheres of higher dimension. By Riemann…
