We study polyharmonic (k-harmonic) maps between Riemannian manifolds with finite j-energies (j=1, cdots, 2k-2). We show if the domain is complete and the target is the Euclidean space, then such a map is harmonic.
In universal algebraic geometry, an algebra is called an equational domain if the union of two algebraic sets is algebraic. We characterize equational domains, with respect to polynomial equations, inside congruence permutable varieties,…
New examples of harmonic unit vector fields on hyperbolic 3-space are constructed by exploiting the reduction of symmetry arising from the foliation by horospheres. This is compared and contrasted with the analogous construction in…
In the framework of quaternionic Clifford analysis in Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{4p}$, which constitutes a refinement of Euclidean and Hermitian Clifford analysis, the Fischer decomposition of the space of complex valued polynomials is…
Classical harmonic analysis says that the spaces of homogeneous harmonic polynomials (solutions of Laplace equation) are irreducible modules of the corresponding orthogonal Lie group (algebra) and the whole polynomial algebra is a free…
Given two Riemannian manifolds $(B,g_B)$ and $(F,g_F)$, we give harmonicity conditions for vector fields on the Riemannian warped product $B\times_fF$, with $f:B \longrightarrow ]0,+\infty[$, using a characteristic variational condition.…
The space forms, the complex hyperbolic spaces and the quaternionic hyperbolic spaces are characterized as the harmonic manifolds with specific radial eigenfunctions of the Laplacian.
We discuss the relationship between quaternion algebras and quadratic forms with a focus on computational aspects. Our basic motivating problem is to determine if a given algebra of rank 4 over a commutative ring R embeds in the 2x2-matrix…
Let V be the pseudo-Euclidean vector space of signature (p,q), p>2 and W a module over the even Clifford algebra Cl^0 (V). A homogeneous quaternionic manifold (M,Q) is constructed for any spin(V)-equivariant linear map \Pi : \wedge^2 W \to…
This work introduces author's approach to harmonic analysis on algebraic groups over functional two-dimensional local fields. For a two-dimensional local field a Hecke algebra which is formed by operators which integrate…
In the presence of an $\Omega$-deformation, local operators generate a chiral algebra in the topological-holomorphic twist of a four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} = 2$ supersymmetric field theory. We show that for a unitary $\mathcal{N} = 2$…
A Lie algebra is said to be quadratic if it admits a symmetric invariant and non-degenerated bilinear form. Semisimple algebras with the Killing form are examples of these algebras, while orthogonal subspaces provide abelian quadatric…
There is considered the problem of describing up to linear conformal equivalence those harmonic cubic homogeneous polynomials for which the squared-norm of the Hessian is a nonzero multiple of the quadratic form defining the Euclidean…
Quaternion, an extension of complex number, is the first discovered non-commutative division algebra by William Rowan Hamilton in 1843. In this article, we review the recent progress on building up the connection between the mathematical…
We show that 4--dimensional conformal field theory is most naturally formulated on Kulkarni 4--folds, i. e. real 4--folds endowed with an integrable quaternionic structure. This leads to a formalism that parallels very closely that of…
In this paper we give a unified framework for the construction of complex valued harmonic morphisms from the real, complex and quaternionic Grassmannians and their non-compact duals. This gives a positive answer to the corresponding open…
Building upon Dyson's fundamental 1962 article known in random-matrix theory as 'the threefold way', we classify disordered fermion systems with quadratic Hamiltonians by their unitary and antiunitary symmetries. Important examples are…
We consider a four dimensional space-time symmetry which is a non trivial extension of the Poincar\'e algebra, different from supersymmetry and not contradicting {\sl a priori} the well-known no-go theorems. We investigate some field…
We study the emergence of Heisenberg (Bianchi II) algebra in hyper-K\"ahler and quaternionic spaces. This is motivated by the r\^ole these spaces with this symmetry play in $\mathcal{N}=2$ hypermultiplet scalar manifolds. We show how to…
Harmonic oscillator, in 2-dimensional noncommutative phase space with non-vanishing momentum-momentum commutators, is studied using an algebraic approach. The corresponding eigenvalue problem is solved and discussed.
