The $f(R)$ theory of gravity can be expressed as a scalar tensor theory with a scalar degree of freedom $\phi$. By a conformal transformation, the action and its Gibbons-York-Hawking boundary term are written in the Einstein frame and the…

We present a complete solution to the problem of Formal Higher Spin Gravities --- formally consistent field equations that gauge a given higher spin algebra and describe free higher spin fields upon linearization. The problem is shown to be…

This paper is the second in a series of works dedicated to studying non-linear partial differential equations via derived geometric methods. We study a natural derived enhancement of the de Rham complex of a non-linear PDE via…

For a representation of a finite group $G$ on a complex vector space $V$ we determine when a holomorphic $\binom{p}{q}$-tensor field on the principle stratum of the orbit space $V/G$ can be lifted to a holomorphic $G$-invariant tensor field…

Let M_m be the generic fibre of the formal deformation space of a one-dimensional formal module X of finite height together with level-m-structures. We show that it is defined over the mth Lubin-Tate extension of the ground field and that…

We compute the Hochschild homology of the differential graded category of perfect curved modules over suitable curved rings, giving what might be termed "de Rham models" for such. This represents a generalization of previous results by…

We study higher derivative extension of the functional renormalization group (FRG). We consider FRG equations for a scalar field that consist of terms with higher functional derivatives of the effective action and arbitrary cutoff…

In the study of 2d (the space dimension) topological orders, it is well-known that bulk excitations are classified by unitary modular tensor categories. But these categories only describe the local observables on an open 2-disk in the long…

In Papers I-III [arXiv:2210.10435, arXiv:2210.11085, arXiv:2304.13304], we use the flat-sky and distant-observer approximations to develop a formalism with which the correlation statistics of cosmological tensor fields are calculated by the…

In this paper, we give a precise definition of an analytic $\gamma$-factor of an irreducible representation of a classical group over a local function field of odd characteristic so that it satisfies some notable properties which are enough…

We study a relation between distinction and special values of local invariants for representations of the general linear group over a quadratic extension of $p$-adic fields. We show that the local Rankin-Selberg root number of any pair of…

We show that the de Rham cohomology of any separated and smooth rigid variety over a field of Laurent series of characteristic zero carries a natural formal meromorphic connection, which we call the Gauss-Manin connection. We compare it…

Given a semi-Hamiltonian system, we construct an $F$-manifold with a connection satisfying a suitable compatibility condition with the product. We exemplify this procedure in the case of the so-called $\epsilon$-system. The corresponding…

In this paper it is shown that for locally trivial complex analytic morphisms between some reduced spaces the Relative Riemann-Hilbert Theorem still holds up to torsion, i.e. tame flat relative connections on torsion-free sheaves are in…

In this paper, we extend purely non-local Hamiltonian formalism to a class of Riemannian F-manifolds, without assumptions on the semisimplicity of the product $\circ$ or on the flatness of the connection $\nabla$. In the flat case we show…

The possibility of using spin connection components as basic quantization variables of a conformal version of General Relativity is studied. The considered model contains gravitational degrees of freedom and a scalar dilaton field. The…

It is outlined how deformations of field theoretical rigid symmetries can be constructed and classified by cohomological means in the extended antifield formalism. Special attention is devoted to deformations referring only to a subset of…

Applications of a method recently suggested by one of the authors (R.L.) are presented. This method is based on the use of dimensional recurrence relations and analytic properties of Feynman integrals as functions of the parameter of…

Local connection forms provide a very useful tool for handling connections on principal bundles, because they ignore any complexities of the total space and, essentially, involve only two fundamental features of the structure group, namely…

Lagrangian formalism on graded manifolds is phrased in terms of the Grassmann-graded variational bicomplex, generalizing the familiar variational bicomplex for even Lagrangian systems on fiber bundles.
