Motivated by the integral representation of the Euler Beta function, we introduce its Cauchy siblings and investigate some of their properties. Two of these newly introduced functions happen to coincide with some classical means, such as…
We consider a special degeneration limit $\omega_1\to - \omega_2$ (or $b\to {\rm i}$ in the context of $2d$ Liouville quantum field theory) for the most general univariate hyperbolic beta integral. This limit is also applied to the most…
We show that the exact $beta$--function of 4D N=2 SYM plays the role of the metric whose inverse satisfies the WDVV--like equations $\F_{ikl}\beta^{lm} \F_{mnj}=\F_{jkl}\beta^{lm}\F_{mni}$. The conjecture that the WDVV--like equations are…
In this paper we introduce a new class of integrable 3D lattice models, possessing continuous families of commuting layer-to-layer transfer matrices. Algebraically, this commutativity is based on a very special construction of local…
We develop a theory of Valuation Hilbert Modules and prove a version of Beurling's theorem for these. Then we apply our version of Beurling's theorem to obtain complete descriptions of the closed invariant subspaces of a number of Hilbert…
We study quantization of a self-interacting scalar field within the unfolded dynamics approach. To this end we find and analyze a classical unfolded system describing 4d off-shell scalar field with a general self-interaction potential. Then…
The coefficients occurring in summation formulae of the Lubbock type are shown to be generalised Bernoulli polynomials which turn up in subdivision questions such as quantum field theory around a conical singularity and on spherical lunes.…
This research note deals with the evaluation of some generalized beta-type integral operators involving the multi-index Mittag-Leffler function $E_{\epsilon_{i}),(\omega_{i})}(z)$. Further, we derive a new family of beta-type integrals…
The $O(d,d)$ invariant worldsheet theory for bosonic string theory with $d$ abelian isometries is employed to compute the beta functions and Weyl anomaly at one-loop. We show that vanishing of the Weyl anomaly coefficients implies the…
We develop the quantum field theory of fermion mixing in curved spacetime and discuss the role of unitarily inequivalent representations in the particle interpretation of the theory. We derive general oscillation formulae and apply them to…
Certain integrable models are described by pairs (X,Y) of ADET Dynkin diagrams. At high energy these models are expected to have a conformally invariant limit. The S-matrix of the model determines algebraic equations, whose solutions are…
In this work we report a new result that appears when one investigates the route that starts from a scalar field theory and ends on a supersymmetric quantum mechanics. The subject has been studied before in several distinct ways and here we…
We consider summations over digamma and polygamma functions, often with summands of the form (\pm 1)^n\psi(n+p/q)/n^r and (\pm 1)^n\psi^{(m)} (n+p/q)/n^r, where m, p, q, and r are positive integers. We develop novel general integral…
We derive a general integral formula on an embedded hypersurface for general relativistic space-times. Suppose the hypersurface is foliated by two-dimensional compact ``sections'' $S_s$. Then the formula relates the rate of change of the…
Quantum Field Theory with fields as Operator Valued Distributions with adequate test functions, -the basis of Epstein-Glaser approach known now as Causal Perturbation Theory-, is recalled. Its recent revival is due to new developments in…
The purpose of this work is to present a method based on the factorizations used in one dimensional quantum mechanics in order to find the symmetries of quantum and classical superintegrable systems in higher dimensions. We apply this…
An analogue of Brylinski's knot beta function is defined for a compactly supported (Schwartz) distribution $T$ on $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. This is a holomorphic function on a right half-plane. If $T$ is a (uniform) double-layer on a…
We give two results concerning the construction of modular invariant partition functions for conformal field theories constructed by tensoring together other conformal field theories. First we show how the possible modular invariants for…
A simple conformal quantum mechanics model of a d-component variable is proposed, which exactly reproduces the retarded Green functions and conformal weights of conformally coupled scalar fields in de Sitter spacetime seen by a static patch…
We compute the one-loop beta-functions for renormalisable quantum gravity coupled to scalars using the co-ordinate space approach and generalised Schwinger De Witt technique. We resolve apparent contradictions with the corresponding…
