DQ-algebroids locally defined on a symplectic manifold form a 2-gerbe. By adapting the method of P. Deligne to the setting of DQ-algebroids we show that this 2-gerbe admits a canonical global section, namely that every symplectic manifold…

Let $F:\Bbb C^n\to\Bbb C^n$ be a polynomial mapping with a non vanishing Jacobian. If the set $S_F$ of non-properness of $F$ is smooth, then $F$ is a surjective mapping. Moreover, the set $S_F$ can not be connected (this is the…

Projectivity and injectivity are fundamental notions in category theory. We consider natural weakenings termed semiprojectivity and semiinjectivity, and study these concepts in different categories. For example, in the category of metric…

Motivated by a question of Rubel, we consider the problem of characterizing which noncompact hypersurfaces in $\RR^n$ can be regular level sets of a harmonic function modulo a $C^\infty$ diffeomorphism, as well as certain generalizations to…

We consider positive semidefinite kernels valued in the $*$-algebra of adjointable operators on a VE-space (Vector Euclidean space) and that are invariant under actions of $*$-semigroups. A rather general dilation theorem is stated and…

We give sufficient conditions for a $ C^1_c $-local diffeomorphism between Fr\'{e}chet spaces to be a global one. We extend the Clarke's theory of generalized gradients to the more general setting of Fr\'{e}chet spaces. As a consequence, we…

It is proven that for compact, connected and semisimple structure groups every degenerate labelled web is strongly degenerate. This conjecture by Lewandowski and Thiemann implies that diffeomorphism invariant operators in the category of…

The \begin{it} Invariance Theorem \end{it} of M. Gerstenhaber and S. D. Schack states that if $\mathbb{A}$ is a diagram of algebras then the subdivision functor induces a natural isomorphism between the Yoneda cohomologies of the category…

We prove two versions of a global implicit function theorem, which involve no loss of derivative, for Keller's $ C_c^1 $-mappings between arbitrary Fr\'{e}chet spaces. Subsequently, within this framework, we apply these theorems to…

Let $D\subset\subset\mathbb{C}^n$ be a complex manifold of dimension $p\geq 2$ with $\C^2$ boundary in $\mathbb{C}^n$. Let $f$ be a $\C^1$ function on $bD$ and $V$ a generic and large enough family of complex $(n-p+1)$-planes. Let suppose…

It is well known that general relativity (GR) does not possess any non-trivial local (in a precise standard sense) and diffeomorphism invariant observables. We propose a generalized notion of local observables, which retain the most…

In this paper we settle the two-dimensional case of a conjecture involving unknown semialgebraic functions with specified smoothness. More precisely, we prove the following result: Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a semialgebraic bundle with respect to…

If $G$ is a finitely generated group with generators $\{g_1,..., g_s\}$, we say an infinite-order element $f \in G$ is a distortion element of $G$ provided that $\displaystyle \liminf_{n \to \infty} \frac{|f^n|}{n} = 0$, where $|f^n|$ is…

Let $R\subset F$ be an extension of real closed fields and ${\mathcal S}(M,R)$ the ring of (continuous) semialgebraic functions on a semialgebraic set $M\subset R^n$. We prove that every $R$-homomorphism $\varphi:{\mathcal S}(M,R)\to F$ is…

We prove a local-global principle for $\infty$-categories over any base $\infty$-category $\mathcal{C}$: we show that any $\infty$-category $\mathcal{B} \to \mathcal{C}$ over $\mathcal{C}$ is determined by the following data: the collection…

The present note studies \emph{surjective rational endomorphisms} $f: \mathbb{P}^2 \dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}^2$ with \emph{cubic} terms and the indeterminacy locus $I_f \ne \emptyset$. We develop an experimental approach, based on some…

In this paper consisting of two parts, we study the integral of a logarithmic differential form on a compact semi-algebraic set in R^n or C^n. In Part I, we prove the convergence of the integral when the semi-algebraic set satisfies…

A local gauge symmetry can not possibly be a mere redundancy of the description, provided that 1. charge is nonzero. 2. we also consider divergent gauge transformations, whose brackets with local transformations contain global charge…

The approximation of Sobolev homeomorphisms by smooth diffeomorphisms is well understood in first-order spaces $W^{1,p}$, but remains largely open in the second-order space $W^{2,1}$ due to a fundamental tension between curvature control…

We prove that a nilpotent subgroup of orientation preserving $C^{1}$ diffeomorphisms of ${\mathbb S}^{2}$ has a finite orbit of cardinality at most two. We also prove that a finitely generated nilpotent subgroup of orientation preserving…
