Let $q$ be a unimodular quadratic form over a field $K$. Pfister's famous local--global principle asserts that $q$ represents a torsion class in the Witt group of $K$ if and only if it has signature $0$, and that in this case, the order of…

In this paper we consider certain local-global principles for Mordell-Weil type groups over number fields like S-units, abelian varieties and algebraic K-theory groups

This work is the first step in a two-part investigation of real-time replica wormholes. Here we study the associated real-time gravitational path integral and construct the variational principle that will define its saddle-points. We also…

We study obstructed deformation problems for two-dimensional residual Galois representations arising from weight~$2$ newforms of level~$N$. Using Poitou-Tate duality, we isolate local and global sources of obstructions and give concrete…

For a cuspidal automorphic representation of GL2/Q associated to a modular form, the local and global Langlands correspondences are compatible at all finite places of Q. On the p-adic Coleman-Mazur eigencurve this principle can fail (away…

The Local-to-Global-Principle used in the proof of convexity theorems for momentum maps has been extracted as a statement of pure topology enriched with a structure of convexity. We extend this principle to not necessarily closed maps…

We prove a local-global principle for the embedding problems of global fields with restricted ramification. By this local-global principle, for a global field $k$, we use only the local information to give a presentation of the maximal…

Within a global physical theory, a notion of locality allows us to find and justify information-processing primitives, like non-signalling between distant agents. Here we propose exploring the opposite direction: to take agents as the basic…

We investigate the failure of a local-global principle with regard to "containment of number fields"; i.e., we are interested in pairs of number fields $(K_1,K_2)$ such that $K_2$ is not a subfield of any algebraic conjugate $K_1^\sigma$ of…

This paper defines new intersection homology groups. The basic idea is this. Ordinary homology is locally trivial. Intersection homology is not. It may have significant local cycles. A local-global cycle is defined to be a family of such…

Cosmological models that are locally consistent with general relativity and the standard model in which an object transported around the universe undergoes P, C and CP transformations, are constructed. This leads to generalization of the…

We study the theory of a global field k as a k-vector space with a predicate for one of the absolute values on k. For example, we prove that in this language a global field with an ultrametric or real archimedean absolute value has a…

We give a characterization of completely regular topological spaces. Applying some recent results for supinf problems in completely regular topological spaces we establish a variational principle for saddle points. Well-posedness of saddle…

Visual paradoxes like the Penrose staircase present a fundamental tension: locally coherent geometric relationships that cannot be realized globally. Inspired by Penrose's observations connecting such paradoxes to cohomology, we develop a…

We discuss the criteria that must be satisfied by a well-posed variational principle. We clarify the role of Gibbons-Hawking-York type boundary terms in the actions of higher derivative models of gravity, such as F(R) gravity, and argue…

We discuss the most general class of teleparallel scalar-torsion theories of gravity in their covariant formulation. The only restrictions we impose are the invariance of the action under diffeomorphisms and local Lorentz transformations,…

We study relationships between different formulations of the local principle. Also we establish a connection among the local principle and the non-commutative Fourier transform approach to the investigation of convolution operator algebras.…

For the kinetic energy of 1d model finite systems the leading corrections to local approximations as a functional of the potential are derived using semiclassical methods. The corrections are simple, non-local functionals of the potential.…

We give an exposition of Deligne's theory of local $\epsilon_0$-factors over fields and discrete valuation rings under the assumption that the theory over the complex numbers is known. We then employ standard techniques from algebraic…

This work presents a unified framework that combines global approximations with locally built models to handle challenging nonconvex and nonsmooth composite optimization problems, including cases involving extended real-valued functions. We…
