In these lectures, we discuss two approaches to studying orbit spaces of algebraic Lie groups. Due to algebraic approach orbit space, or quotient, is an algebraic manifold, while from the differential viewpoint a quotient is a differential…
In this paper, we investigate the action of pseudogroup of all point transformations on the natural bundle of equations $y''=a^3(x,y)(y')^3+a^2(x,y)(y')^2+a^1(x,y)y'+a^0(x,y)$. We construct differential invariants of this action and solve…
We give a complete classification of conformally covariant differential operators between the spaces of $i$-forms on the sphere $S^n$ and $j$-forms on the totally geodesic hypersphere $S^{n-1}$. Moreover, we find explicit formul{\ae} for…
We present an approach for construction of functional bases of differential invariants for some infinite-dimensional algebras with coefficients of generating operators depending on arbitrary functions. An example for the…
Through making use of a Borel measure and a piecewise-Riemannian inner scalar product, it is shown that over a Lorentzian manifold every three diffeomorphisms generate a conformal space, whose elements are smooth vector-valued functions…
It is shown that in dimension at least three a local diffeomorphism of Euclidean n-space into itself is injective provided that the pull-back of every plane is a Riemannian submanifold which is conformal to a plane. Using a similar…
We continue our study of the variation of parabolic cohomology (math.AG/0310139) and derive an exact formula for the underlying Poincare duality. As an illustration of our methods, we compute the monodromy of the Picard-Euler system and its…
The Frobenius manifold structure on the space of rational functions with multiple simple poles is constructed. In particular, the dependence of the Saito-flat coordinates on the flat coordinates of the intersection form is studied. While…
We construct a two-parameter covariant differential calculus on the quantum $h$-exterior plane. We also give a deformation of the two-dimensional fermionic phase space.
This Note presents the resolution of a differential system on the plane that translates a geometrical problem about isotropic deformations of area and length. The system stems from a probability study on deformed random fields [J.Fournier…
Consider the quotient of a Hilbert space by a subgroup of its automorphisms. We study whether this orbit space can be embedded into a Hilbert space by a bilipschitz map, and we identify constraints on such embeddings.
The demand to know the structure of functionally independent invariants of tensor fields arises in many problems of theoretical and mathematical physics, for instance for the construction of interacting higher-order tensor field actions. In…
We explore orbits, rational invariant functions, and quotients of the natural actions of connected, not necessarily finite dimensional subgroups of the automorphism groups of irreducible algebraic varieties. The applications of the results…
Each H^k Sobolev inner product defines a Hamiltonian vector field X_k on the regular dual of the Lie algebra of the diffeomorphism group of the circle. We show that only X_0 and X_1 are bi-Hamiltonian relatively to a modified Lie-Poisson…
We elucidate the vector space (twisted relative cohomology) that is Poincar\'e dual to the vector space of Feynman integrals (twisted cohomology) in general spacetime dimension. The pairing between these spaces - an algebraic invariant…
The Molien-Weyl integral formula and the Hilbert-Poincar\'e series have proven to be powerful mathematical tools in relation to gauge theories, allowing to count the number of gauge invariant operators. In this paper, we show that these…
Based on an original classification of differential equations by types of regular Lie group actions, we offer a systematic procedure for describing partial differential equations with prescribed symmetry groups. Using a new powerful…
This contribution is the first in a series of three: it reports on the construction of (a fine sheaf of) diffeomorphism invariant Colombeau algebras on open sets of Eucildean space, which completes earlier approaches. Part II and III will…
Given a generic 2-plane field on a 5-dimensional manifold we consider its (3,2)-signature conformal metric [g] as defined in math.DG/0406400. Every conformal class [g] obtained in this way has very special conformal holonomy: it must be…
We consider semiclassical orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle associated with a weight function that satisfy a Pearson-type differential equation involving two polynomials of degree at most three. Structure relations and difference…
