We consider the description of second-class constraints in a Lagrangian path integral associated with a higher-order $\Delta$-operator. Based on two conjugate higher-order $\Delta$-operators, we also propose a Lagrangian path integral with…
We extend the action for evolution equations of KdV and MKdV type which was derived in [Capel/Nijhoff] to the case of not periodic, but only equivariant phase space variables, introduced in [Faddeev/Volkov]. The difference of these…
We obtain new regularity conditions for problems of calculus of variations with higher-order derivatives. As a corollary, we get non-occurrence of the Lavrentiev phenomenon. Our main regularity result asserts that autonomous integral…
We show that if A is an abelian category satisfying certain mild conditions, then one can introduce the concept of a moduli space of (semi)stable objects which has the structure of a projective algebraic variety. This idea is applied to…
The operators of fractional calculus come in many different types, which can be categorised into general classes according to their nature and properties. We conduct a formal study of the class known as weighted fractional calculus and its…
Using Dirac's approach to constrained dynamics, the Hamiltonian formulation of regular higher order Lagrangians is developed. The conventional description of such systems due to Ostrogradsky is recovered. However, unlike the latter, the…
Highest weight categories are an abstraction of the representation theory of semisimple Lie algebras introduced by Cline, Parshall and Scott in the late 1980s. There are by now many characterisations of when an abelian category is highest…
A description of scalar charged particles, based on the Feshbach-Villars formalism, is proposed. Particles are described by an object that is a Wigner function in usual coordinates and momenta and a density matrix in the charge variable. It…
We give an explicit formula for symplectically basic representatives of the cyclic cohomology of the Weyl algebra. This paper can be seen as cyclic addendum to the paper by Feigin, Felder and Shoikhet, where the analogous Hochschild case…
In a recent letter, new representations were proposed for the pair of sequences ($\gamma,\delta$), as defined formally by Bailey in his famous lemma. Here we extend and prove this result, providing pairs ($\gamma,\delta$) labelled by the…
We study higher-order analogues of Dirac structures, extending the multisymplectic structures that arise in field theory. We define higher Dirac structures as involutive subbundles of $TM+\wedge^k TM^*$ satisfying a weak version of the…
We prove Reilly-type upper bounds for divergence-type operators of the second order as well as for Steklov problems on submanifolds of Riemannian manifolds of bounded sectional curvature endowed with a weighted measure.
The objective of this paper is to provide a fairly general model category context in which one can perform Goodwille Calculus. There are two main parts to the paper, the first establishing general conditions which guarantee the existence of…
In the context of the two dimensional sigma model, we show that classical field theory naturally defines a functor from Segal's category of Riemann surfaces to the Guillemin-Sternberg/Weinstein category of canonical relations in symplectic…
Let $W$ be an affine Weyl group, and let $\Bbbk$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$. The diagrammatic Hecke category $\mathcal{D}$ for $W$ over $\Bbbk$ is a categorification of the Hecke algebra for $W$ with rich connections to modular…
We extend the classical notion of a Reedy category so as to allow non-trivial automorphisms. Our extension includes many important examples occuring in topology such as Segal's category Gamma, or the total category of a crossed simplicial…
We consider three categories arising from the higher Auslander algebras of type $A$ in relation to $d$-dimensional cluster combinatorics: $d$-exact subcategory of the module category of $A^d_{n+1}$ generated by the $d$-cluster-tilting…
We give an explicit conjectural formula for the motivic Euler characteristic of an arbitrary symplectic local system on the moduli space A_3 of principally polarized abelian threefolds. The main term of the formula is a conjectural motive…
Nakaoka-Ogawa-Sakai considered the localization of an extriangulated category. This construction unified the Serre quotient of abelian categories and the Verdier quotient of triangulated categories. Recently, Herschend-Liu-Nakaoka defined…
In the context of the Higher-Order Maxwell-Einstein-Scalar (HOMES) theories, which are invariant under spacetime diffeomorphisms and $U(1)$ gauge symmetry, we study two broad subclasses: the first is up to linear in $R_{\mu\nu\alpha\beta}$,…
