Diagrammatic approaches to perturbation theory transformed the practicability of calculations in particle physics. In the case of extended theories of gravity, however, obtaining the relevant diagrammatic rules is non-trivial: we must…
Previous results on trans-Planckian collisions in superstring theory are rewritten in terms of an explicitly unitary S-matrix whose range of validity covers a large region of the energy/impact-parameter plane. Amusingly, as part of this…
We establish an integral inequality for the Ricci curvature of a certain class of warped products $M\times_fN$, where the equality holds if and only if it is simply a Riemannian product. We also give a sufficient condition for the…
We characterize those intersection-type theories which yield complete intersection-type assignment systems for lambda-calculi, with respect to the three canonical set-theoretical semantics for intersection-types: the inference semantics,…

The Feynman path integral is defined over the space $\mathbb{R}^T$ of all possible paths; it has been a powerful tool to develop Quantum Mechanics. The absolute value of Feynman's integrand is not integrable, then Lebesgue integration…
We derive the (matrix-valued) Feynman rules of the mass perturbation theory and use it for the resummation of the $n$-point functions with the help of the Dyson-Schwinger equations. We use these results for a short review of the complete…
The study of Feynman integrals through the lens of intersection theory offers a unifying framework for their analysis, capturing both the linear and quadratic relations that arise among integrals. In doing so, it provides a powerful method…
Alesker has introduced the space $\mathcal V^\infty(M)$ of {\it smooth valuations} on a smooth manifold $M$, and shown that it admits a natural commutative multiplication. Although Alesker's original construction is highly technical, from a…
We give a new residual intersection decomposition for the refined intersection products of Fulton-MacPherson. Our formula refines the celebrated residual intersection formula of Fulton, Kleiman, Laksov, and MacPherson. The new decomposition…
