When dealing with concrete problems in a function space on R^n, it is sometimes helpful to have a dense subspace consisting of functions of a particular type, adapted to the problem under consideration. We give a theorem that allows one to…
We study the three positivity constraints among the eight virtual photon structure functions, derived from the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality and which are hence model-independent. The photon structure functions obtained from the simple parton…
In this paper we are concerned with restricted additive Schwarz with local impedance transformation conditions for a family of Helmholtz problems in two dimensions. These problems are discretized by the finite element method with conforming…
Let $f$ be a function on a finite field $F$. The decomposition of the generalized Fermat variety $X$ defined by the multivariate polynomial of degree $n$, $\phi(x,y,z)=f(x)+f(y)+f(z)$ in $\Bbb{P}^3(\overline{\mathbb{F}}_2)$, plays a crucial…
Given linearly independent holomorphic functions $f_0,...,f_n$ on a planar domain $\Omega$, let $\mathcal E$ be the set of those points $z\in\Omega$ where a nontrivial linear combination $\sum_{j=0}^n\lambda_jf_j$ may have a zero of…
The Banach space $E$ has the weakly compact approximation property (W.A.P. for short) if there is a constant $C < \infty$ so that for any weakly compact set $D \subset E$ and $\epsilon > 0$ there is a weakly compact operator $V: E \to E$…
Permutation polynomials over finite fields are fundamental objects as they are used in various theoretical and practical applications in cryptography, coding theory, combinatorial design, and related topics. This family of polynomials…
The $K=4$ fractional superstring Fock space is constructed in terms of $\bZ_4$ parafermions and free bosons. The bosonization of the $\bZ_4$ parafermion theory and the generalized commutation relations satisfied by the modes of various…
In spacetime dimensions larger than 2, whenever a global symmetry G is spontaneously broken to a subgroup H, and G and H are Lie groups, there are Nambu-Goldstone modes described by fields with values in G/H. In two-dimensional spacetimes…
For a graph $G=(V,E)$, $k\in \mathbb{N}$, and a complex number $w$ the partition function of the univariate Potts model is defined as \[ {\bf Z}(G;k,w):=\sum_{\phi:V\to [k]}\prod_{\substack{uv\in E \\ \phi(u)=\phi(v)}}w, \] where…
We extend the Gelfand and Graev construction of generalized Fourier transforms on basic affine space from split groups to quasi-split groups over a local non-archimedean field $F$.
The Grassmannian of affine subspaces is a natural generalization of both the Euclidean space, points being zero-dimensional affine subspaces, and the usual Grassmannian, linear subspaces being special cases of affine subspaces. We show…
We consider gauged WZW models based on a four dimensional non-semi-simple group. We obtain conformal $\s$-models in $D=3$ spacetime dimensions (with exact central charge $c=3$) by axially and vectorially gauging a one-dimensional subgroup.…
We construct Narain conformal field theories (CFTs) from quantum subsystem codes, a more comprehensive class of quantum error-correcting codes than quantum stabilizer codes, for qudit systems of prime dimensions. The resulting code CFTs…
In these proceedings we review the main results concerning superspace geometries with nonanticommutative spinorial variables and field theories formulated on them. In particular, we report on the quantum properties of the WZ model…
We introduce a new concept, the APN-defect, which can be thought of as measuring the distance of a given function $G:\mathbb{F}_{2^n} \rightarrow \mathbb{F}_{2^n}$ to the set of almost perfect nonlinear (APN) functions. This concept is…
We give a consistent example of a zero-dimensional separable metrizable space $Z$ such that every homeomorphism of $Z^\omega$ acts like a permutation of the coordinates almost everywhere. Furthermore, this permutation varies continuously.…

In this paper we study a series of vertex operator algebras of integer level associated to the affine Lie algebra $A_{\ell}^{(1)}$. These vertex operator algebras are constructed by using the explicit construction of certain singular…
We study invariant Hermitian forms on a conformal vertex algebra and on their (twisted) modules. We establish existence of a non-zero invariant Hermitian form on an arbitrary $W$-algebra. We show that for a minimal simple $W$-algebra…
