Spherical harmonics provide a smooth, orthogonal, and symmetry-adapted basis to expand functions on a sphere, and they are used routinely in physical and theoretical chemistry as well as in different fields of science and technology, from…
Compressed sensing extends from the recovery of sparse vectors from undersampled measurements via efficient algorithms to the recovery of matrices of low rank from incomplete information. Here we consider a further extension to the…
In many time-harmonic electromagnetic wave problems, the considered geometry exhibits an axial symmetry. In this case, by exploiting a Fourier expansion along the azimuthal direction, fully three-dimensional (3D) calculations can be carried…
Tannaka duality and its extensions by Lurie, Sch\"appi et al. reveal that many schemes as well as algebraic stacks may be identified with their tensor categories of quasi-coherent sheaves. In this thesis we study constructions of cocomplete…
We consider Fock's fundamental theory of the hydrogen atom in momentum space which allows a realization of the previously predicted rotation group of a three-dimensional (3D) sphere in four-dimensional (4D) space. We then modify Fock's…
Bertrand's theorem asserts that any spherically symmetric natural Hamiltonian system in Euclidean 3-space which possesses stable circular orbits and whose bounded trajectories are all periodic is either a harmonic oscillator or a Kepler…
A similarity transformation is constructed through which a system of particles interacting with inverse-square two-body and harmonic potentials in one dimension, can be mapped identically, to a set of free harmonic oscillators. This…
The spherical harmonics $Y_\ell^m$ fall into three families -- sectoral ($\ell = |m|$), tesseral ($\ell > |m| > 0$), and zonal ($m = 0$) -- which exhibit fundamentally different behaviour under analytic continuation to non-integer…
We illustrate a rigorous approach to express the totally symmetric isotropic tensors of arbitrary rank in the $n$-dimensional Euclidean space as a linear combination of products of Kronecker deltas. By making full use of the symmetries, one…
A new vector-tensor model of classical gravity, which contains coupling between the field strength of the vector field and the curvature tensors in six dimensions, is proposed. Cosmological solutions of the scale factors in this model with…
We construct generic real symmetric tensors with only real eigenvectors or, equivalently, real homogeneous polynomials with the maximum possible finite number of critical points on the sphere.
In this note, using the spinorial description of $SU(3)$ and $G_2$-structures obtained recently by other authors, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for harmonicity of above mentioned structures. We describe obtained results on…
In this thesis we study the momentum space approach to the solution of the CWI's of CFT's in higher dimensions. Our work's goal is to illustrate the essential steps needed to build tensor correlators starting from the scalar solutions, for…
The article contains several observations on spherical harmonics and their nodal sets: a construction for harmonics with prescribed zeroes; a kind of canonical representation of this type for harmonics on $\bbS^2$; upper and lower bounds…
To solve the spinor-spinor Bethe-Salpeter equation in Euclidean space we propose a novel method related to the use of hyperspherical harmonics. We suggest an appropriate extension to form a new basis of spin-angular harmonics that is…
A rank-three tensor model in canonical formalism has recently been proposed. The model describes consistent local-time evolutions of fuzzy spaces through a set of first-class constraints which form an on-shell closed algebra with structure…
In a recent letter we suggested a natural generalization of the flat-space spinor-helicity formalism in four dimensions to anti-de Sitter space. In the present paper we give some technical details that were left implicit previously. For…
Total-angular-momentum (TAM) waves provide a set of basis functions for scalar, vector, and tensor fields that can be used in place of plane waves and that reflect the rotational symmetry of the spherical sky. Here we discuss three-point…
We prove that any (real or complex) analytic horizontally conformal submersion from a three-dimensional conformal manifold M to a two-dimensional conformal manifold N can be, locally, `extended' to a unique harmonic morphism from the heaven…
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,…
