The wavefront set provides a precise description of the singularities of a distribution. Because of its ability to control the product of distributions, the wavefront set was a key element of recent progress in renormalized quantum field…
Unitary metaplectic representations of the group $SL_2(\mathbb{Z}_{2^n})$ are necessary to describe the evolution of $2^n$-dimensional quantum systems, such as systems involving $n$ qubits. It is shown that in order for the metaplectic…
We develop an approach to affine symplectic invariant geometry of Lagrangian surfaces by the method of moving frames. The fundamental invariants of elliptic Lagrangian immersions in affine symplectic four-space are derived together with…
For the reconstruction problem, the universal representation of inverse Radon transforms implies the needed complexity of the direct Radon transforms which leads to the additional contributions. In the standard theory of generalized…
In this paper, we study the Lagrangian functions for a class of second-order differential systems arising from physics. For such systems, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of Lagrangian functions. Based on the…
We show that the linear symplectic and anti-symplectic transformations form the maximal covariance group for both the Wigner transform and Weyl operators. The proof is based on a new result from symplectic geometry which characterizes…
Metaplectic Wigner distributions generalize the most popular time-frequency representations, such as the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) and $\tau$-Wigner distributions, using metaplectic operators. However, in order for a metaplectic…
By carrying out refined point-wise estimates for the mean curvature, we prove better rigidity theorems of Lagrangian and symplectic translating solitons.
Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field of odd residual characteristic. We compute the Jordan set of a simple cuspidal representation of a symplectic group over $F$, using explicit computations of generators of the Hecke algebras of covers…
We generalize Y. Nievergelt's inversion method for the Radon transform on lines in the 2-plane to the $k$-plane Radon transform of continuous and $L^p$ functions on $R^n$ for all $1\leq k<n$.
In this article, we generalize the theory of discrete Lagrangian mechanics and variational integrators in two principal directions. First, we show that Lagrangian submanifolds of symplectic groupoids give rise to discrete dynamical systems,…
We revisit the spherical Radon transform, also called the Funk-Radon transform, viewing it as an axisymmetric convolution on the sphere. Viewing the spherical Radon transform in this manner leads to a straightforward derivation of its…
We introduce the totally nonnegative Lagrangian Grassmannian $\rm{LG}_{\geq 0}^R (n,2n)$, a new subset of the totally nonnegative Grassmannian consisting of subspaces isotropic with respect to a certain bilinear form $R$. We describe its…
We study the phase-space concentration of the so-called generalized metaplectic operators whose main examples are Schr\"odinger equations with bounded perturbations. To reach this goal, we perform a so-called $\mathcal{A}$-Wigner analysis…
In image reconstruction there are techniques that use analytical formulae for the Radon transform to recover an image from a continuum of data. In practice, however, one has only discrete data available. Thus one often resorts to sampling…
We illustrate the general point of view developed in [SIAM J. Math. Anal., 51(6), 4356-4381] that can be described as a variation of Helgason's theory of dual $G$-homogeneous pairs $(X,\Xi)$ and which allows us to prove intertwining…
Let $\mR$ be the restriction of the spherical Radon transform to the set of spheres centered on a hypersurface $\mS$. We study the inversion of $\mR$ by a closed-form formula. We approach the problem by studying an oscillatory integral,…
We discuss Lagrangian and Hamiltonian field theories that are invariant under a symmetry group. We apply the polysymplectic reduction theorem for both types of field equations and we investigate aspects of the corresponding reconstruction…
By means of the perturbative renormalization group method, we study a long-time behaviour of some symplectic discrete maps near elliptic and hyperbolic fixed points. It is shown that a naive renormalization group (RG) map breaks the…
Let $F$ be a local field and $n\ge 2$ an integer. We study the Radon transform as an operator $M : \mathcal C_+ \to \mathcal C_-$ from the space of smooth $K$-finite functions on $F^n \setminus \{0\}$ with bounded support to the space of…
