We start from a new theory (discussed earlier) in which the arena for physics is not spacetime, but its straightforward extension-the so called Clifford space ($C$-space), a manifold of points, lines, areas, etc..; physical quantities are…

We extend the trace-logarithmic $S$-divergence from matrices to tracial $C^*$-algebras and finite von Neumann algebras, and show that its square root defines a metric on the invertible positive cone. We also prove an integral representation…

The space of Minkowski valuations on an m-dimensional complex vector space which are continuous, translation invariant and contravariant under the complex special linear group is explicitly described. Each valuation with these properties is…

We consider a class of C*-algebras C(X) associated with quantum spaces such as spheres, projective spaces, and lens spaces. We introduce a non-self-adjoint operator algebra A together with an explicit functor from the category of…

We study projective varieties $X \subset \mathbb{P}^r$ of dimension $n \geq 2$, of codimension $c \geq 3$ and of degree $d \geq c + 3$ that are of maximal sectional regularity, i.e. varieties for which the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity…

Let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional Auslander algebra. For a $\Lambda$-module $M$, we prove that the projective dimension of $M$ is at most one if and only if the projective dimension of its socle soc\,$M$ is at most one. As an…

To every finite-dimensional $\mathbb C$-algebra $\Lambda$ of finite representation type we associate an affine variety. These varieties are a large generalization of the varieties defined by "$u$ variables" satisfying "$u$-equations", first…

The concept of a $ C $*-algebra-valued metric space was introduced in 2014. It is a generalization of a metric space by replacing the set of real numbers by a $ C $*-algebra. In this paper, we show that $ C $*-algebra-valued metric spaces…

We consider a generalisation of vector fields on a vector space, where the vector space is generalised to a highest-weight module over a Kac-Moody algebra. The generalised vector field is an element in a non-associative superalgebra defined…

In this paper, we consider a Finsler space with a Randers change of Quartic metric F = $\sqrt[4]{\alpha^4 + \beta^4} + \beta$. The conditions for this space to be with reversible geodesics are obtained. Further, we study some geometrical…

In this paper, it is proved that any conformal vector field is homothetic on a locally projectively flat $(\alpha,\beta)$-space of non-Randers type in dimension $n\ge 3$, and the local solutions of such a vector field are determined. While…

We describe the integral equivariant cohomology ring of a weighted projective space in terms of piecewise polynomials, and thence by generators and relations. We deduce that the ring is a perfect invariant, and prove a Chern class formula…

It is often inevitable to introduce an indefinite-metric space in quantum field theory, for example, which is explained for the sake of the manifestly covariant quantization of the electromagnetic field. We show two more evident…
