A new notion of independence relation is given and associated to it, the class of flat theories, a subclass of strong stable theories including the superstable ones is introduced. More precisely, after introducing this independence…

We study the automorphism group of the algebraic closure of a substructure A of a pseudo-finite field F, or more generally, of a bounded PAC field F. This paper answers some of the questions of [1], and in particular that any finite group…

We compute rationally the topological (complex) K-theory of the classifying space BG of a discrete group provided that G has a cocompact G-CW-model for its classifying space for proper G-actions. For instance word-hyperbolic groups and…

Let $G$ be a Lie group, and let $(M,\omega)$ be a symplectic manifold. If $G$ admits a Hamiltonian action on $(M,\omega)$ with momentum map $\mu$, then $M$, the zero-level set of $\mu$, the orbit space, and the corresponding symplectic…

Let F be a non-Archimedean locally compact field of residue characteristic p, let G be an inner form of GL(n,F) with n>0, and let l be a prime number different from p. We describe the block decomposition of the category of finite length…

We study deterministic and quantum dynamics from a constructive "finite" point of view, since the introduction of a continuum, or other actual infinities in physics poses serious conceptual and technical difficulties, without any need for…

Let G denote a connected, quasi-split reductive group over a field F that is complete with respect to a discrete valuation and that has a perfect residue field. Under mild hypotheses, we produce a subset of the Lie algebra g(F) that picks…

We introduce a geometric construction of a gauge field theory of a complex adaptive system. It is based on a suitable simplicial formulation of a discrete geometry that manifests relevant properties valid in the classical differentiable…

For a joint probability density function f(x) of a random vector X the mixed partial derivatives of log f(x) can be interpreted as limiting cumulants in an infinitesimally small open neighborhood around x. Moreover, setting them to zero…

We fix a field $\kk$ of characteristic $p$. For a finite group $G$ denote by $\delta(G)$ and $\sigma(G)$ respectively the minimal number $d$, such that for any finite dimensional representation $V$ of $G$ over $\kk$ and any $v\in…

For a classical group $G$ of type $\mathsf D_n$ over a field $k$ of characteristic different from $2$, we show the existence of a finitely generated regular extension $R$ of $k$ such that $G$ admits outer automorphisms over $R$. Using this…

A range of bosonic models can be expressed as (sometimes generalized) $\sigma$-models, with equations of motion coming from a selfduality constraint. We show that in D=2, this is easily extended to supersymmetric cases, in a superspace…

We introduce a class of $2d$ sigma models which are parameterized by a function of one variable. In addition to the physical field $g$, these models include an auxiliary field $v_\alpha$ which mediates interactions in a prescribed way. We…

Differential calculus on discrete sets is developed in the spirit of noncommutative geometry. Any differential algebra on a discrete set can be regarded as a `reduction' of the `universal differential algebra' and this allows a systematic…

The proposed theory of causally structured discrete fields studies integer values on directed edges of a self-similar graph with a propagation rule, which we define as a set of valid combinations of integer values and edge directions around…

Many scalar field theory models with complex actions are invariant under the antilinear ($PT$) symmetry operation $L^{\ast}(-\chi)=L(\chi)$. Models in this class include the $i\phi^{3}$ model, the Bose gas at finite density and Polyakov…

We investigate near-ring properties that generalize nearfield properties about units. We study zero symmetric near-rings $N$ with identity with two interrelated properties: the units with zero form an additive subgroup of $(N,+)$; the units…

In this paper we establish decomposition theorems for derivations of group rings. We provide a topological technique for studying derivations of a group ring $A[G]$ in case $G$ has finite conjugacy classes. As a result, we describe all…

We use Sigma-invariants to study homotopical and homological finiteness properties of fixed subgroups of automorphisms of a group $G$ in terms of its center $Z(G)$ and the induced automorphisms on its associated quotient $G/Z(G)$.…

For certain theories of existentially closed topological differential fields, we show that there is a strong relationship between $\mathcal L\cup\{D\}$-definable sets and their $\mathcal L$-reducts, where $\mathcal L$ is a relational…
