A 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold equipped with a tensor structure of type $(1,1)$, whose third power is the identity, is considered. This structure and the metric have circulant matrices with respect to some basis, i.e., these structures…
Representation theory provides a suitable framework to count and classify invariants in tensor models. We show that there are two natural ways of counting invariants, one for arbitrary rank of the gauge group and a second, which is only…
On smooth manifolds of dimension $n \ge 4$, we prove that the torsion and curvature are, up to a scalar factor, the only pair of a vector-valued 2-form and an endomorphism-valued 2-form naturally associated with a linear connection that…
For an affine, toric Q-Gorenstein variety Y (given by a lattice polytope Q) the vector space T^1 of infinitesimal deformations is related to the complexified vector spaces of rational Minkowski summands of faces of Q. Moreover, assuming Y…
We prove a theorem on scalar-valued functions of tensors, where ``scalar'' refers to absolute scalars as well as relative scalars of weight $w$. The present work thereby generalizes an identity referred to earlier by Rosenfeld in his…
By including an additional self-dual three-form we construct a Lorentz invariant lagrangian for the abelian (2,0) tensor supermultiplet. The extra three-form is a supersymmetry singlet and decouples from the (2,0) tensor supermultiplet. We…
A modified Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity in four dimensions where the quadratic Gauss-Bonnet term is coupled to a scalar field is considered. The field equations of the model are obtained by variational methods by making use of the…
The solutions to the Euler-Poisson equations are geodesic lines of $SO(3)$ manifold with the metric determined by the inertia tensor. However, the Poisson structure on the corresponding symplectic leaf does not depend on the inertia tensor.…
We construct the gravitational energy-momentum pseudo-tensor of up to fourth-order conformally invariant theories of gravity. Then we linearize the pseudo-tensor and use its average over a macroscopic region to find the energy and momentum…
We study scalar and symmetric 2-form valued universal curvature identities. We use this to establish the Gauss-Bonnet theorem using heat equation methods, to give a new proof of a result of Kuz'mina and Labbi concerning the Euler-Lagrange…
Real band topology often appears in systems with space-time inversion symmetry and is characterized by invariants such as the Euler and second Stiefel-Whitney classes. Here, we examine the generic band topology of Bogoliubov de-Gennes (BdG)…
In this paper we evince a rigorous formulation of duality in gravitational theories where an Einstein like equation is valid, by providing the conditions under which the Hodge duals (with respect to the metric tensor g) of T^a and R_b^a may…
By using Cauchy's formula, it is known that Bernoulli numbers and Euler numbers can be represented by the contour integrals \begin{equation*} \begin{aligned} B_n&=\frac{n!}{2\pi i}\oint \frac{z}{e^z-1}\frac{d…
A linear Lorentz connection has always two fundamental derived characteristics: curvature and torsion. The latter is assumed to vanish in general relativity. Three gravitational models involving non-vanishing torsion are examined:…
In this article, we analyze the structure and relationships between magnitude homology and Eulerian magnitude homology of finite graphs. Building on the work of Kaneta and Yoshinaga, Sazdanovic and Summers, and Asao and Izumihara, we…
We study the irreducible decomposition under Sp(2n, R) of the space of torsion tensors of almost symplectic connections. Then a description of all symplectic quadratic invariants of torsion-like tensors is given. When applied to a manifold…
We compute explicit transgression forms for the Euler and Pontrjagin classes of a Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension 4 under a conformal change of the metric, or a change to a Riemannian connection with torsion. These formulae describe…
Let A be an abelian variety defined over a number field K, the number of torsion points rational over a finite extension L is bounded polynomially in terms of the degree [L : K]. When A is isogenous to a product of simple abelian varieties…
Given a rigidly-compactly generated tensor-triangulated category whose Balmer spectrum is finite dimensional and Noetherian, we construct a torsion model for it, which is equivalent to the original tensor-triangulated category. The torsion…
We consider pairs of toral automorphisms (A,B) satisfying an invariant cone property. At each iteration, A acts with probability p and B with probability 1-p. We prove exponential decay of correlations for a class of Holder continuous…
