This is a sequel to [SIGMA 9 (2013), 007, 23 pages, arXiv:1210.1177], in which there is a construction of a $2\times2$ positive-definite matrix function $K (x)$ on $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. The entries of $K(x)$ are expressed in terms of…
A 2-group is a "categorified" version of a group, in which the underlying set G has been replaced by a category and the multiplication map has been replaced by a functor. Various versions of this notion have already been explored; our goal…
In this paper we study an equivalence relation defined on the set of cycle-free $d$-partitions of the complete graph $K_{2d}$. We discuss a conjecture which states that this equivalence relation has only one equivalence class, and show that…
We construct the actions of a very broad family of 2d integrable $\sigma$-models. Our starting point is a universal 2d action obtained in [arXiv:2008.01829] using the framework of Costello and Yamazaki based on 4d Chern-Simons theory. This…
We consider codimension-one defects in the theory of $d$ compact scalars on a two-dimensional worldsheet, acting linearly by mixing the scalars and their duals. By requiring that the defects are topological, we find that they correspond to…
If C and D are varieties of algebras in the sense of general algebra, then by a representable functor C --> D we understand a functor which, when composed with the forgetful functor D --> Set, gives a representable functor in the classical…
Let $S$ be a semigroup, $Z(S)$ the center of $S$ and $\sigma:S\rightarrow S$ is an involutive automorphism. Our main results is that we describe the solutions of the Kannappan-Wilson functional equation \[\displaystyle \int_{S}…
We introduce a new point of view towards Glaeser's theorem on composite $C^\infty$ functions [Ann. of Math. 1963], with respect to which we can formulate a ``$C^k$ composite function property" that is satisfied by all semiproper real…
Let (k(n)) n=1,2,... be a strictly increasing sequence of positive integers . We consider a specific sequence of differential operators Tk(n),{\lambda} , n=1,2,... on the space of entire functions , that depend on the sequence (k(n))…
Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion free lattice in $G=\PGL(3,{{\mathbb F}})$ where ${{\mathbb F}}$ is a nonarchimedean local field. Then $\Gamma$ acts freely on the affine Bruhat-Tits building ${\mathcal B}$ of $G$ and there is an induced action on…
We prove that for a continuum $K\subset \mathbb R^n$ the sum $K^{+n}$ of $n$ copies of $K$ has non-empty interior in $\mathbb R^n$ if and only if $K$ is not flat in the sense that the affine hull of $K$ coincides with $\mathbb R^n$.…
Every countable directed graph generates a Fock space Hilbert space and a family of partial isometries. These operators also arise from the left regular representations of free semigroupoids derived from directed graphs. We develop a…
Two and three point functions of composite operators are analysed with regard to (logarithmically) divergent contact terms. Using the renormalisation group of dimensional regularisation it is established that the divergences are governed by…
Higher genus partition functions of two-dimensional conformal field theories have to be invariants under linear actions of mapping class groups. We illustrate recent results [4,6] on the construction of such invariants by concrete…
In this paper we develop computational tools to study the higher algebraic $K$-theory of Green functors. We construct a spectral sequence converging to the algebraic $\mathbb{G}$-theory of any $G$-Green functor, for $G$ a cyclic $p$-group.…
We prove a Universal Coefficient Theorem for objects in the bootstrap class in the equivariant Kasparov category for a finite cyclic group of square-free order.
In this paper we study the 3D gauge theory of two tensor gauge fields: $a_{\mu\nu}(x)$, which we take symmetric, and $B_{\mu\nu}(x)$, with no symmetry on its indices. The corresponding invariant action is a higher-rank BF-like model, which…
In this second part we prove that, if $G$ is one of the groups $\mathrm{PSL}_2(q)$ with $q>5$ and $q\equiv 5\pmod {24}$ or $q\equiv 13 \pmod{24}$, then the fundamental group of every acyclic $2$-dimensional, fixed point free and finite…
In this paper, we extend Waldhausen's results on algebraic K-theory of generalized free produts in a more general setting and we give some properties of the Nil functors. As a consequence, we get new groups with trivial Whitehead groups.
Let K be a complete discretely valued field with residue field k. If char(K) = 0, char(k) = 2 and the 2-rank of k is d, we prove that there exists an integer N depending on d such that the u-invariant of any function field in one variable…
