We choose such boundary conditions for open IIB superstring theory which preserve N=1 SUSY. The explicite solution of the boundary conditions yields effective theory which is symmetric under world-sheet parity transformation…
For every natural number $m$, the existentially closed models of the theory of fields with $m$ commuting derivations can be given a first-order geometric characterization in several ways. In particular, the theory of these differential…
Building on work of Kuhlmann and Lisinski, we study the theory of the Hahn series field $\mathbb{F}_{q}(\!(\mathbb{Q})\!)$, over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$, equipped with the $t$-adic valuation, in a language of valued fields. We prove…
An exponential homomorphism for a complete discrete valuation field of characteristic zero which relates differential forms and the Milnor K-groups of the field is studied. An application to explicit formulas is included.
We prove that (additive) ordered group reducts of nonstandard models of the bounded arithmetical theory $\mathsf{VTC^0}$ are recursively saturated in a rich language with predicates expressing the integers, rationals, and logarithmically…
We prove a dichotomy for o-minimal fields $\mathcal{R}$, expanded by a $T$-convex valuation ring (where $T$ is the theory of $\mathcal{R}$) and a compatible monomial group. We show that if $T$ is power bounded, then this expansion of…
In 1907, Hans Hahn proved the remarkable fact that any ordered group can be embedded in an ordered real function space. This set the stage for work on ordered groups and fields, and this area received valuable contributions from Levi-Civita…
We prove that in every ring of generalised power series with non-positive real exponents and coefficients in a field of characteristic zero, every series admits a factorisation into finitely many irreducibles of infinite support, the number…
We elaborate on a recently proposed geometric framework for scalar effective field theories. Starting from the action, a metric can be identified that enables the construction of geometric quantities on the associated functional manifold.…
Let $T$ be an o-minimal theory extending the theory of real closed ordered fields. An $H_T$-field is a model $K$ of $T$ equipped with a $T$-derivation such that the underlying ordered differential field of $K$ is an $H$-field. We study…
We survey some important properties of fields of generalized series and of exponential-logarithmic series, with particular emphasis on their possible differential structure, based on a joint work of the author with S. Kuhlmann [KM12b,KM11].
The algebra of exponential fields and their extensions is developed. The focus is on ELA-fields, which are algebraically closed with a surjective exponential map. In this context, finitely presented extensions are defined, it is shown that…
We study the existence of formal Taylor expansions for functions defined on fields of generalised series. We prove a general result for the existence and convergence of those expansions for fields equipped with a derivation and an…
We study model theoretic properties of valued fields (equipped with a real-valued multiplicative valuation), viewed as metric structures in continuous first order logic. For technical reasons we prefer to consider not the valued field…
We show that any complex (respectively real) representation of finite group naturally generates a open-closed (respectively Klein) topological field theory over complex numbers. We relate the 1-point correlator for the projective plane in…
We establish a correspondence between automorphisms and derivations on certain algebras of generalised power series. In particular, we describe a Lie algebra of derivations on a field $k(\!(G)\!)$ of generalised power series, exploiting our…
We prove that unitary two-dimensional topological field theories are uniquely characterized by $n$ positive real numbers $\lambda _1,\ldots \lambda _n$ which can be regarded as the eigenvalues of a hermitean handle creation operator. The…
We study the automorphism group of the field of surreal numbers. Our main structure theorem presents a decomposition of this group into a product of five significant factors. Using the representation of surreal numbers as generalized power…
We prove that the Reeb space of a proper definable map $f:X \rightarrow Y$ in an arbitrary o-minimal expansion of a real closed field is realizable as a proper definable quotient. This result can be seen as an o-minimal analog of Stein…
We investigate the existence of "generic derivations" in exponential fields. We show that exponential fields without additional compatibility conditions between derivation and exponentiation cannot support a generic derivation.
