Let $(M,g)$ be a pseudo-Riemannian manifold. We propose a new approach for defining the conformal Schwarzian derivatives. These derivatives are 1-cocycles on the group of diffeomorphisms of $M$ related to the modules of linear differential…
A Goldstino field in the nonlinear realization of supersymmetry is constructed from an appropriate chiral super-multiplet of the linear theory, in general O'Raifeataigh-like models. The linear theories can thus be reformulated into their…
This article gives an invariant representation of the curvature of a plane wave spacetime in terms of the Schwarzian of a curve in the Lagrangian Grassmannian. It develops a general theory of cross ratios and Schwarzians of curves in what…
A pre-Schwarzian and a Schwarzian derivative for locally univalent pluriharmonic mappings in ${\mathbb C}^n$ are introduced. Basic properties such as the chain rule, multiplicative invariance and affine invariance are proved for these…
In this paper, we investigate the non-modular solutions to the Schwarz differential equation $\{f,\tau \}=sE_4(\tau)$ where $E_4(\tau)$ is the weight 4 Eisenstein series and $s$ is a complex parameter. In particular, we provide explicit…
A nonlinear realization of SU(2) chiral symmetry spontaneous breaking approach is developed in the composite operator formalism. A Lagrangian including quark, gluon and Goldstone boson degrees of freedom of the chiral quark model is…
We apply the nonlinear realizations method for constructing new Galilean conformal mechanics models. Our starting point is the Galilean conformal algebra which is a non-relativistic contraction of its relativistic counterpart. We calculate…
We argue relations between the Aharonov invariants and Tamanoi's Schwarzian derivatives of higher order and give a recursion formula for Tamanoi's Schwarzians. Then we propose a definition of invariant Schwarzian derivatives of a…
For a nonconstant holomorphic map between projective Riemann surfaces with conformal metrics, we consider invariant Schwarzian derivatives and projective Schwarzian derivatives of general virtual order. We show that these two quantities are…
The Schwarzian-Newton method can be defined as the minimal method for solving nonlinear equations $f(x)=0$ which is exact for any function $f$ with constant Schwarzian derivative; exactness means that the method gives the exact root in one…
It was recently demonstrated that the N=0,1,2,4 super-Schwarzian derivatives can be constructed by applying the method of nonlinear realizations to the finite-dimensional (super)conformal groups SL(2,R), OSp(1|2), SU(1,1|1), and SU(1,1|2),…
Lagrangian formulation of quantum mechanical Schr\"odinger equation is developed in general and illustrated in the eigenbasis of the Hamiltonian and in the coordinate representation. The Lagrangian formulation of physically plausible…
We show that it is possible to formulate gravity with a complex vierbein based on SL(2,C) gauge invariance. The proposed action is a four-form where the metric is not introduced but results as a function of the complex vierbein. This…
In this note we present an application of the Schwarzian derivative. By exploiting some properties of the Schwarzian derivative, we solve the equation appearing in the gravity-dilaton-antisymmetric tensor system. We also mention that this…
Nonlinear realizations describing the spontaneous breakown of supersymmetry and R symmetry are constructed using the Goldstino and R axion fields. The associated R current, supersymmetry current and energy-momentum tensor are shown to be…
We compare two relationships between quadratic differentials and measured geodesic laminations on hyperbolic Riemann surfaces (by foliations or complex projective structures). Each yields a homeomorphism $\ML(S) \to Q(X)$ for any conformal…
Suppose that a transcendental meromorphic function in the plane has finitely many critical values, while its multiple points have bounded multiplicities, and its inverse function has finitely many transcendental singularities. Using the…
Chiral perturbation theory is extended to nonrelativistic systems with spontaneously broken symmetry. In the effective Lagrangian, order parameters associated with the generators of the group manifest themselves as effective coupling…
The existence of subnormal solutions of following three difference equations with Schwarzian derivative $$\omega(z+1)-\omega(z-1)+a(z)(S(\omega,z))^n=R(z,\omega(z)),$$ $$\omega(z+1)\omega(z-1)+a(z)S(\omega,z)=R(z,\omega(z)),$$ and…
We give an interpretation of the holographic correspondence between two-dimensional $BF$ theory on the punctured disk with gauge group ${\rm PSL}(2,\mathbb R)$ and Schwarzian quantum mechanics in terms of a Drinfeld-Sokolov reduction. The…
