It is well-known that quantum groups are relevant to describe the quantum regime of 3d gravity. They encode a deformation of the gauge symmetries parametrized by the value of the cosmological constant. They appear as a form of…
We study singular integral operators induced by $3$-dimensional Calder\'on-Zygmund kernels in the Heisenberg group. We show that if such an operator is $L^{2}$ bounded on vertical planes, with uniform constants, then it is also $L^{2}$…
Recent studies of the $AdS_4/CFT_3$ correspondence involve the construction of a peculiar supersymmetric gauge theory on the worldvolume of multiple M2s branes as a boundary field theory. Under suitable conditions the quantum theory becomes…
We discuss various aspects of positive kernel method of quantization of the one-parameter groups $\tau_t \in \mbox{Aut}(P,\vartheta)$ of automorphisms of a $G$-principal bundle $P(G,\pi,M)$ with a fixed connection form $\vartheta$ on its…
In this paper we study the spacelike-characteristic Cauchy problem for the Einstein vacuum equations. We prove that given initial data on a maximal compact spacelike hypersurface $\Sigma \simeq \overline{B(0,1)} \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ and…
We define a Gauss map $\gamma:M\rightarrow\mathbb{S}^{6}$ of an oriented hypersurface $M$ of the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{7}$ and prove that $\gamma$ is harmonic if and only if $M$ has CMC. Results on the geometry and topology of CMC…
A linear isometry $R$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$ is called a similarity isometry of a lattice $\Gamma \subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ if there exists a positive real number $\beta$ such that $\beta R\Gamma$ is a sublattice of (finite index in) $\Gamma$. The…
Starting with the correspondence between positive definite kernels on the one hand and reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHSs) on the other, we turn to a detailed analysis of associated measures and Gaussian processes. Point of departure:…
We present a mechanical proof of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality in ACL2(r) and a formalisation of the necessary mathematics to undertake such a proof. This includes the formalisation of $\mathbb{R}^n$ as an inner product space. We also…
Given a graph $\Gamma$, one may conside the set $X$ of its vertices as a metric space by assuming that all edges have length one. We consider two versions of homology theory of $\Gamma$ and their $K$-theory counterparts -- the $K$-theory of…
We analyse the convergence of sampling algorithms for functions in reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHS). To this end, we discuss approximation properties of kernel regression under minimalistic assumptions on both the kernel and the…
Centered kernel alignment (CKA) is a popular metric for comparing representations, determining equivalence of networks, and neuroscience research. However, CKA does not account for the underlying manifold and relies on numerous heuristics…
If $\Gamma$ is the range of a Jordan curve that bounds a convex set in $\mathbb{R}^2,$ then $\frac{1}{2}(\Gamma+\Gamma)=\mathsf{co}(\Gamma),$ where $+$ is the Minkowski sum and $\mathsf{co}$ is the convex hull. Answering a question of V.N.…
A semi-Riemannian manifold is said to satisfy $R\ge K$ (or $R\le K$) if spacelike sectional curvatures are $\ge K$ and timelike ones are $\le K$ (or the reverse). Such spaces are abundant, as warped product constructions show; they include,…
In this paper we construct the modular Cauchy kernel $\Xi_N(z_1, z_2)$, i.e. the modular invariant function of two variables, $(z_1, z_2) \in \mathbb{H} \times \mathbb{H}$, with the first order pole on the curve $$D_N=\left\{(z_1, z_2) \in…
It has been recently shown that if $K$ is a sesqui-analytic scalar valued non-negative definite kernel on a domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb C^m$, then the function $\big(K^2\partial_i\bar{\partial}_j\log K\big )_{i,j=1}^ m,$ is also a…
We study quantum field theories with boundary by utilizing non-invertible symmetries. We consider three kinds of boundary conditions of the four dimensional $\mathbb{Z}_2$ lattice gauge theory at the critical point as examples. The weights…
In this work, we investigate the computation of the counterterms necessary for the renormalization of the one-loop effective action of quantum gravity using both the worldline formalism and the heat kernel method. Our primary contribution…
Recently there have been discussions about which complex metrics should be allowable in quantum gravity. These discussions assumed that the matter fields were real valued. We make the observation that for compactified solutions it makes…
The geometric quantization of a symplectic manifold endowed with a prequantum bundle and a metaplectic structure is defined by means of an integrable complex structure. We prove that its semi-classical limit does not depend on the choice of…
