Given a convex optimization problem and its dual, there are many possible first-order algorithms. In this paper, we show the equivalence between mirror descent algorithms and algorithms generalizing the conditional gradient method. This is…
Although the introduction of generalised and extended geometry has been motivated mainly by the appearance of dualities upon reductions on tori, it has until now been unclear how (all) the duality transformations arise from first principles…
Hodge-filtered derived de Rham cohomology of a ring $R$ can be described (up to completion and shift) as the graded pieces of the even filtration on $\mathrm{HC}^-(R)$. In this paper we show a deformation of this result: If $R$ admits a…
In this paper the gauge embedding procedure of dualization is reassessed through a deeper analysis of the mutual equivalence of vector field models of more generic forms, explicitly, a general modified massive gauge-breaking extension of…
We construct an action for double field theory using a metric connection that is compatible with both the generalised metric and the O_{D,D} structure. The connection is simultaneously torsionful and flat. Using this connection one may…
The notion of a duality between two derived functors as well as an extension theorem for derived functors to larger categories in which they need not be defined is introduced. These ideas are then applied to extend and study the coext…
The representation and the cohomology theory of associative 2-algebras are developed. We study the deformations and abelian extensions of associative 2-algebras in details.
This is the second of two papers that introduce a deformation theoretic framework to explain and broaden a link between homotopy algebra and probability theory. This paper outlines how the framework can assist in the development of homotopy…
HSZ Double Field Theory is a higher-derivative theory of gravity with exact and manifest T-duality symmetry. The first order corrections in the massless sector were shown to be governed solely by Chern-Simons deformations of the three-form…
The previously proposed generalized action principle approach to supersymmetric extended objects is considered in some details for the case of heterotic string in $D=3, 4, 6 ~and~ 10$ space--time dimensions. The proof of the 'off--shell'…
T-duality is a symmetry of the heterotic string to all orders in string perturbation theory. This results in an effective four dimensional supergravity theory with desirable features for phenomenology. T-duality, as well as, generically, an…
We establish a consistency result by comparing two independent notions of generalised solutions to a large class of linear hyperbolic first order PDE systems with constant coefficients, showing that they eventually coincide. The first is…
The purpose of this note is to provide an alternative proof of two transformation formulas contiguous to that of Kummer's second transformation for the confluent hypergeometric function ${}_1F_1$ using a differential equation approach.
In this paper, our focus is on exploring the gauge-invariant basis for bosonic couplings within the framework of heterotic string theories, specifically examining 3-, 5-, and 7-derivative terms. We thoroughly analyze the invariance of these…
We consider the general case of a type IIA string compactified on a Calabi-Yau manifold which has a heterotic dual description. It is shown that the nonabelian gauge symmetries which can appear nonperturbatively in the type II string but…
This work introduces a decoding strategy for binary self-dual codes possessing an automorphism of a specific type. The proposed algorithm is a hard decision iterative decoding scheme. The enclosed experiments show that the new decoding…
We continue our exploration of local Double Field Theory (DFT) in terms of symplectic graded manifolds carrying compatible derivations and study the case of heterotic DFT. We start by developing in detail the differential graded manifold…
It is shown that the matrix KP hierarchy can yield new integrable equations in $(2+1)$-dimensions along with the corresponding Lax pair. For particular gauge choice this may result derivative and also a higher order nonlinear extension of…
The higher order symmetries are investigated in a covariant Hamiltonian formulation. The covariant phase-space approach is extended to include the presence of external gauge fields and scalar potentials. The special role of the Killing-Yano…
The theory described by the sum of the Einstein-Hilbert action and the action of conformal scalar field possesses the duality symmetry which includes some special conformal transformation of the metric, and also inversion of scalar field…
