Consideration of the Noether variational problem for any theory whose action is invariant under global and/or local gauge transformations leads to three distinct theorems. These include the familiar Noether theorem, but also two equally…
We shall review a novel formulation of four dimensional gauged supergravity which is manifestly covariant with respect to the non-perturbative electric-magnetic duality symmetry transformations of the ungauged theory, at the level of the…
For a non negative measure $\mu$ with $p$ atoms, we study the relation between the Square Root Problem of $\mu$ and the problem of subnormality of ${\tilde W_\mu}$ the Aluthge transform of the associated unilateral weighted shift. We use an…
The concepts of weighted numerical radius has been defined in recent times. In this article, we obtain several upper bound for weighted numerical radius of operators and $2 \times 2$ operator matrices which generalize and improves some well…
We examine Li's double determinantal varieties in the special case that they are toric. We recover from the general double determinantal varieties case, via a more elementary argument, that they are irreducible and show that toric double…
We study an invariant, the secondary trace, attached to two commuting endomorphisms of a 2-dualizable object in a symmetric monoidal higher category. We establish a secondary trace formula which encodes the natural symmetries of this…
A new realization of the conformal algebra is studied which mimics the behaviour of a statistical system on a discrete albeit infinite lattice. The two-point function is found from the requirement that it transforms covariantly under this…
Let $A = U |A|$ be the polar decomposition of $A$. The Aluthge transform of the operator $A$, denoted by $\tilde{A}$, is defined as $\tilde{A} =|A|^{\frac{1}{2}} U |A|^{\frac{1}{2}}$. In this paper, first we generalize the definition of…
An intriguing feature of the Standard Model is that the representations of the unbroken gauge symmetries are vector-like whereas those of the spontaneously broken gauge symmetries are chiral. Here we provide a toy model which shows that a…
We study 2-cocycle twists, or equivalently Zhang twists, of semigroup algebras over a field k. If the underlying semigroup is affine, that is abelian, cancellative and finitely generated, then Spec k[S] is an affine toric variety over k,…
For recursively generated shifts, we provide definitive answers to two outstanding problems in the theory of unilateral weighted shifts: the Subnormality Problem ({\bf SP}) (related to the Aluthge transform) and the Square Root Problem…
Given a bounded sequence \omega of positive numbers and its associated unilateral weighted shift W_{\omega} acting on the Hilbert space \ell^2(\mathbb{Z}_+), we consider natural representations of W_{\omega} as a 2-variable weighted shift,…
We demonstrate a few striking similarities and some glaring differences between (i) the free four (3 + 1)-dimensional (4D) Abelian 2-form gauge theory, and (ii) the anomalous two (1 + 1)-dimensional (2D) Abelian 1-form gauge theory, within…
The Horndeski action is the most general one involving a metric and a scalar field that leads to second order field equations in four dimensions. Being the natural extension of the well known Scalar-Tensor theories, its structure and…

We discuss the most general class of teleparallel scalar-torsion theories of gravity in their covariant formulation. The only restrictions we impose are the invariance of the action under diffeomorphisms and local Lorentz transformations,…
In this paper we present two different problems within the framework of shift-invariant theory. First, we develop a triangular form for shift-preserving operators acting on finitely generated shift-invariant spaces. In case of the normal…
An infinite number of topological conformal algebras with varying central charges are explicitly shown to be present in $2d$ gravity (treated both in the conformal gauge and in the light-cone gauge) coupled to minimal matter. The central…
In this paper, we outline a method to determine all recursive relations for a subnormal 2-variable weighted shift, up to total degree $k$, entirely from the representing measure. This allows us to show that the densities of the atoms do not…
Let $T$ be a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space. Then the Aluthge transform $\Delta T$ and the sequence $(\Delta^nT)$ of Aluthge iterates of $T$ are defined by \begin{align*} \Delta…
