A geometric version of the Poincar\'e Lemma is established for the topological vector space of differential chains. In particular, every differential k-cycle with compact support in a contractible open subset U of a smooth n-manifold M is…

By means of fixed point index theory for multi-valued maps, we provide an analogue of the classical Birkhoff--Kellogg Theorem in the context of discontinuous operators acting on affine wedges in Banach spaces. Our theory is fairly general…

Given a closed, oriented surface, possibly with boundary, and a mapping class, we obtain sharp lower bounds on the number of fixed points of a surface symplectomorphism (i.e. area-preserving map) in the given mapping class, both with and…

We present a novel approach to establish the Birkhoff's theorem validity in the so-called quadratic Poincar\'e Gauge theories of gravity. By obtaining the field equations via the Palatini formalism, we find paradigmatic scenarios where the…

The second Poincar\'e kinematical group serves as one of new ones in addition to the known possible kinematics. The geometries with the second Poincar\'e symmetry is presented and their properties are analyzed. On the geometries, the new…

In this paper, we employ the framework of localization algebras to compute the equivariant K-homology class of the Euler characteristic operator, a central object in studying equivariant index theory on manifolds. This approach provides a…

We prove a fixed point theorem that combines the contraction mapping principle and some Knaster-Tarski-like theorem. As a consequence we obtain an existence theorem to initial value problem for ordinary differential equation with…

In a model of physics taking place on a discrete set of points that approximates Minkowski space, one might perhaps expect there to be an empirically identifiable preferred frame. However, the work of Dowker, Bombelli, Henson, and Sorkin…

In this paper shall we endeavour to substantiate that the evolution of the Riemann- Christoffel tensor or curvature tensor can be expressed entirely by an arbitrary timelike vector field and that the curvature tensor returns to its initial…

We discover a new Poincar\'e type phenomenon by establishing an optimal rigidity theorem for local CR mappings between circle bundles that are defined in a canonical way over (possibly reducible) bounded symmetric domains. We prove such a…

We consider an Abel polynomial differential equation. For two given points a and b, the "Poincare mapping" of the equation transforms the values of its solution at a into their values at b. In this article, we study global analytic…
