We discuss BF theories defined on manifolds with spatial boundaries. Variational arguments show that one needs to augment the usual action with a boundary term for specific types of boundary conditions. We also show how to use this…

Let $\Gamma$ be a compact group acting on a smooth, compact manifold $M$, let $P \in \psi^m(M; E_0, E_1)$ be a $\Gamma$-invariant, classical pseudodifferential operator acting between sections of two equivariant vector bundles $E_i \to M$,…

We develop the notion of Rokhlin dimension for partial actions of finite groups, extending the well-established theory for global systems. The partial setting exhibits phenomena that cannot be expected for global actions, usually stemming…

We connect boundary conditions for one-sided pseudo-differential operators with the generators of modified one-sided L\'evy processes. On one hand this allows modellers to use appropriate boundary conditions with confidence when restricting…

By restricting to a class of localic open groupoids $G$ which, similarly to Lie groupoids, possess appropriate covers $\widehat G\to G$ by \'etale groupoids, we extend results about groupoid actions and quantales that were previously proved…

This is a survey on upper and lower bounds for finite group actions on bounded surfaces, 3-dimensional handlebodies and closed handles, handlebodies in arbitrary dimensions and finite graphs (the common feature of these objects is that all…

We establish Fredholm properties for a class of nonlocal differential operators. Using mild convergence and localization conditions on the nonlocal terms, we also show how to compute Fredholm indices via a generalized spectral flow, using…

We consider the index problem of certain boundary groupoids of the form $\mathcal{G} = M _0 \times M _0 \cup \mathbb{R}^q \times M _1 \times M _1$. Since it has been shown that for the case that $q \geq 3$ is odd, $K _0 (C^* (\mathcal{G}))…

In this article, we develop a general technique for gluing subcategories of $\infty$-categories. We obtain categorical equivalences between simplicial sets associated to certain multisimplicial sets. Such equivalences can be used to…

We present a boundary integral formulation of the Helmholtz equation with visco-thermal boundary conditions, in two dimensions. Such boundary conditions allow for the accurate simulation of viscous and thermal losses in the vicinity of the…

In this article, we introduce the concept of partial groupoid actions on R- semicategories as well as we give criteria for existence of a globalization of it. This point of view is a generalization of the notions of partial groupoid actions…

Given a partial action $\alpha$ of a connected groupoid $\mathcal{G}$ on an associative ring $A$ we investigate under what conditions the partial skew groupoid ring $A\star_{\alpha}\mathcal{G}$ can be realized as a partial skew group ring.…

We construct models where initial and boundary conditions can be found from the fundamental rules of physics, without the need to assume them, they will be derived from the action principle. Those constraints are established from physical…

We systematically compute the effective short-range potentials arising from second order QCD-diagrams related to bound states of quarks, antiquarks, and gluons. Our formalism relies on the assumption that the exchanged gluons are massless,…

We introduce two new classes of pseudo-differential operators on open curves. They correspond via a change of variables to subclasses of the periodic pseudo-differential operators, which respectively stabilize even and odd functions. The…

In this thesis, we employ simplicial methods to study actions, principal bundles, and bibundles of higher groupoids. Roughly, we use Kan fibrations to model actions of higher groupoids, we use pairs of a Kan fibration and a special acyclic…

We explore the connections between automata, groups, limit spaces of self-similar actions, and tilings. In particular, we show how a group acting ``nicely'' on a tree gives rise to a self-covering of a topological groupoid, and how the…

We give bordism-finiteness results for manifolds with semi-simple group action. Consider the class of oriented manifolds which admit a circle action with isolated fixed points such that the action extends to an $S^3$-action with fixed…

Given a certain triangulation of a punctured surface with boundary, we construct a new triangulated surface without punctures which covers it. This new surface is naturally equipped with an action of a group of order two, and its quotient…

We introduce a general framework realizing edge modes in (classical) gauge field theory as dynamical reference frames, an often suggested interpretation that we make entirely explicit. We focus on a bounded region $M$ with a co-dimension…
