In continuum physics, there are important topological aspects like instantons, theta-terms and the axial anomaly. Conventional lattice discretizations often have difficulties in treating one or the other of these aspects. In this paper, we…
We show how the level matching condition in six dimensional, abelian and supersymmetric orbifolds of the E_8 x E_8 heterotic string can be given equivalently in terms of fractional gauge and gravitational instanton numbers. This relation is…

Duality groups of Abelian gauge theories on four manifolds and their reduction to two dimensions are considered. The duality groups include elements that relate different space-times in addition to relating different gauge-coupling…
We compute the partition functions of D(-1)D7 systems describing the multi-instanton dynamics of SO(N) gauge theories in eight dimensions. This is the simplest instance of the so called exotic instantons. In analogy with the Seiberg-Witten…

Anomalous diffusion is a phenomenon that cannot be modeled accurately by second-order diffusion equations, but is better described by fractional diffusion models. The nonlocal nature of the fractional diffusion operators makes substantially…
We start a program of background independent quantum gravity in eight dimensions. We begin by considering canonical gravity \textit{a la} "Kaluza-Klein" in $D=d+1$ dimensions. We show that our canonical gravity approach can be applied to…
We present a simple construction of the instantonic type equation over octonions where its similarities and differences with the quaternionic case are very clear. We use the unified language of Clifford Algebra. We argue that our approach…
We show that the heterotic supersymmetry (Killing spinor equations) and the anomaly cancellation imply the heterotic equations of motion in dimensions five, six, seven, eight if and only if the connection on the tangent bundle is an…

This paper presents high-order numerical methods for solving boundary value problems associated with the Lane-Emden equation, which frequently arises in astrophysics and various nonlinear models. A major challenge in studying this equation…
Self-dual 2-forms in D=2n dimensions are characterised by an eigenvalue criterion. The equivalence of various definitions of self-duality is proven. We show that the self-dual 2-forms determine a n^2-n+1 dimensional manifold S_{2n} and the…
We discuss instantons on noncommutative four-dimensional Euclidean space. In commutative case one can consider instantons directly on Euclidean space, then we should restrict ourselves to the gauge fields that are gauge equivalent to the…
This paper continues the research we developed in \cite{MT1} and \cite% {MT2}. The main aim of this paper is to investigate separability conditions for a cowreath $(A\otimes H^{op},H,\psi )$ constructed by using the $8$% -dimensional…
It is shown that the generators of Clifford algebras behave as creation and annihilation operators for fermions and bosons. They can create extended objects, such as strings and branes, and can induce curved metric of our spacetime. At a…
In the context of D-dimensional Euclidean gravity, we define the natural generalisation to D-dimensions of the self-dual Yang-Mills equations, as duality conditions on the curvature 2-form of a Riemannian manifold. Solutions to these…
