The purpose of this paper is to present a generalized hole argument for gauge field theories and their geometrical setting in terms of fiber bundles. The generalized hole argument is motivated and extended from the spacetime hole arguments…
The aim of this paper and its sequel is to introduce and classify the holonomy algebras of the projective Tractor connection. After a brief historical background, this paper presents and analyses the projective Cartan and Tractor…
In this article we characterize the foliations that have the same Newton polygon that their union of formal separatrices, they are the foliations called of the second type. In the case of cuspidal foliations studied by Loray, we precise…
The object of this survey is to give an overview on the topology of singularities of holomorphic foliation germs on $(\mathbb C^2,0)$.
In this paper we introduce the additive analogue of the index of a polynomial over finite fields. We study several problems in the theory of polynomials over finite fields in terms of their additive indices, such as value set sizes, bounds…
This is a written-up version of eight introductory lectures to the Hodge theory of projective manifolds. The table of contents should be self-explanatory. The only exception is section 8 where I discuss, in a simple example, a technique for…
Torse-forming vector fields are generalizations of some important vector fields. In this paper, we present some techniques to transform a proper torse-forming vector field into its special cases. Concrete examples are given.
The main purpose of this paper is to lay the foundations of a general theory which encompasses the features of the classical Hough transform and extend them to general algebraic objects such as affine schemes. The main motivation comes from…
The aim of this note is to survey the factorizations of the Fibonacci infinite word that make use of the Fibonacci words and other related words, and to show that all these factorizations can be easily derived in sequence starting from…
The index of a Lie algebra is an important algebraic invariant, but it is notoriously difficult to compute. However, for the suggestively-named seaweed algebras, the computation of the index can be reduced to a combinatorial formula based…
Traces in symmetric monoidal categories are well-known and have many applications; for instance, their functoriality directly implies the Lefschetz fixed point theorem. However, for some applications, such as generalizations of the…
This paper proposes an algebraic view of trees which opens the doors to an alternative computational scheme with respect to classic algorithms. In particular, it is shown that this view is very well-suited for machine learning and…
Field theories on the plane wave background are considered. We discuss that for such field theories one can only form 1+1 dimensional freely propagating wave packets. We analyze tree level four point functions of scalar field theory as well…
This is an overview of higher structural constructions in physics. The main motivations of our current attempt are as follows: (i) to provide a brief introduction to derived algebraic geometry, (ii) to understand how derived objects…
In this paper we review the hole argument for the space-time points and elementary particles and generalize the hole argument to include all geometric object fields and diffeomorphisms; and, by application of forgetful functors to abstract…
These are lecture notes for a course in Winter 2022/23, updated and completed in October 2025. The goal of the lectures is to present some recent developments around six-functor formalisms, in particular: the abstract theory of 6-functor…
An extension of the Gutzwiller trace formula is given that includes diffraction effects due to hard wall scatterers or other singularities. The new trace formula involves periodic orbits which have arcs on the surface of singularity and…
These notes survey the theory of (twisted) conformal blocks from an algebro-geometric perspective and have two main goals. The first one is to summarize the construction of conformal blocks from vertex operator algebras, and to describe…
Pursuing conjectures of John Roe, we use the stable Higson corona of foliated cones to construct a new $K$-theory model for the leaf space of a foliation. This new $K$-theory model is -- in contrast to Alain Connes' $K$-theory model -- a…
We formulate a general set of consistency requirements, which are expected to be satisfied by the scattering matrices in the presence of reflecting boundaries. In particular we derive an equivalent to the boostrap equation involving the…
