This paper forms part of a larger work where we prove a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer regarding the algebraic structure of "global conformal invariants"; these are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars. The…
This paper treats some basic points in general relativity and in its perturbative analysis. Firstly a systematic classification of global SO(n) invariants, which appear in the weak-field expansion of n-dimensional gravitational theories, is…
The classification of compact homogeneous spaces of the form $M=G/K$, where $G$ is a non-simple Lie group, such that the standard metric is Einstein is still open. The only known examples are $4$ infinite families and $3$ isolated spaces…
This is the fifth in a series of papers where we prove a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer regarding the algebraic structure of ``global conformal invariants''; these are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars.…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ denote an $n$-dimensional Gorenstein ring. For an ideal $I \subset R$ with $\grade I = c$ we define new numerical invariants $\tau_{i,j}(I)$ as the socle dimensions of $H^i_{\mathfrak{m}}(H^{n-j}_I(R))$. In case of a…
The asymptotic dimension is an invariant of metric spaces introduced by Gromov in the context of geometric group theory. When restricted to graphs and their shortest paths metric, the asymptotic dimension can be seen as a large scale…
The gauge principle is at the heart of a good part of fundamental physics: Starting with a group G of so-called rigid symmetries of a functional defined over space-time Sigma, the original functional is extended appropriately by additional…
Let G be a graph whose edges are labeled by ideals of a commutative ring. We introduce a generalized spline, which is a vertex-labeling of G by elements of the ring so that the difference between the labels of any two adjacent vertices lies…
Using Klein's approach, geometry can be studied in terms of a space of points and a group of transformations of that space. This allows us to apply algebraic tools in studying geometry of mathematical structures. In this article, we follow…
The quasispecies model introduced by Eigen in 1971 has close connections with the isometry group of the space of binary sequences relative to the Hamming distance metric. Generalizing this observation we introduce an abstract quasispecies…
The question of interest in the present study is: ``Given a body subject to mechanical loads, how to define the initial geometry so that the deformed one matches precisely a prescribed shape?'' This question is particularly relevant in…
A. Zinger defined reduced Gromov-Witten (GW) invariants and proved a comparison theorem of standard and reduced genus one GW invariants for every symplectic manifold (with all dimension). H. -L. Chang and J. Li provided a proof of the…
The space of n (ordered) points on the projective line, modulo automorphisms of the line, is one of the most important and classical examples of an invariant theory quotient, and is one of the first examples given in any course. Generators…
The concept of an $i$-symmetrization is introduced, which provides a convenient framework for most of the familiar symmetrization processes on convex sets. Various properties of $i$-symmetrizations are introduced and the relations between…
This is my old unpublished paper called "The generalized Grassmann invariant". It shows how "pictures" also known as "Peiffer diagrams" represent elements of $H_3G$ for any group $G$ and shows that $K_3(\mathbb Z [G])$ is isomorphic to a…
In this paper we construct an algebraic invariant attached to Galois representations over number fields. This invariant, which we call an Artin symmetric function, lives in a certain ring we introduce called the ring of arithmetic symmetric…
Groupoids are mathematical structures able to describe symmetry properties more general than those described by groups. They were introduced (and named) by H. Brandt in 1926. Around 1950, Charles Ehresmann used groupoids with additional…
The notion of $\ast$-measure on a compact Hausdorff space can be defined for arbitrary continuous triangular norm $\ast$. The well-known Hutchinson-Barnsley theory deals with the iterated function systems (IFSs) of probability measures and…
Gauge-invariant quantum fields are constructed in an Abelian power-counting renormalizable gauge theory with both scalar, vector and fermionic matter content. This extends previous results already obtained for the gauge-invariant…
Going beyond the cohomological invariants attached to tiling spaces via inverse limit constructions, Clark and Hunton introduced shape group invariants, and showed these invariants in dimension one give new information. We show for…
