We study the Madsen-Tillmann spectrum $\C P^\infty_{-1}$ as a quotient of the Mahowald pro-object $\C P^{\infty}_{-\infty}$, which is closely related to the Tate cohomology of circle actions. That theory has an associated symplectic…
This paper is based on the lectures given by the first author at Harvard in February and March, 2009. It begins with an introduction to the classical p-adic theory of the Macdonald, Matsumoto and Whittaker functions. Its major directions…
We define the orbit category for transitive topological groupoids and their equivariant CW-complexes. By using these constructions we define equivariant Bredon homology and cohomology for actions of transitive topological groupoids. We show…
We compute the dispersion laws of chaotic periodic systems using the semiclassical periodic orbit theory to approximate the trace of the powers of the evolution operator. Aside from the usual real trajectories, we also include complex…
Some basic notions and results in Topological Dynamics are extended to continuous groupoid actions in topological spaces. We focus mainly on recurrence properties. Besides results that are analogous to the classical case of group actions,…
Let G be a torus of dimension n > 1 and M a compact Hamiltonian G-manifold with $M^G$ finite. A circle, $S^1$, in G is generic if $M^G = M^{S^1}$. For such a circle the moment map associated with its action on M is a perfect Morse function.…
We investigate classical and semiclassical aspects of codimension--two bifurcations of periodic orbits in Hamiltonian systems. A classification of these bifurcations in autonomous systems with two degrees of freedom or time-periodic systems…
This work addresses the Hamiltonian dynamics of the Kepler problem in a deformed phase space, by considering the equatorial orbit. The recursion operators are constructed and used to compute the integrals of motion. The same investigation…
Hawking radiation as tunneling by Hamilton-Jacobi method beyond semiclassical approximation is analysed. We compute all quantum corrections in the single particle action revealing that these are proportional to the usual semiclassical…
Symplectic slice theorems elucidate the local structure of symplectic manifolds carrying Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups. We generalize these theorems in two natural settings. The first is based on the idea that complex reductive…
The notation of torus manifolds were introduced by A. Hattori and M. Masuda. Toric manifolds, quasitoric manifolds, topological toric manifolds, toric origami manifolds and $b$-symplectic toric manifolds are typical examples of torus…
Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact connected Lie group on a conformal symplectic manifold. We prove a convexity theorem for the moment map under the assumption that the action is of Lee type, which establishes an analog of Kirwan's…
The Hamilton-Jacobi equation of relativistic quantum mechanics is revisited. The equation is shown to permit solutions in the form of breathers (oscillating/spinning solitons), displaying simultaneous particle-like and wave-like behaviour.
Continuing our previous work on graded twisting of Hopf algebras and monoidal categories, we introduce a graded twisting construction for equivariant comodule algebras and module categories. As an example we study actions of quantum…
Generalizations of classical theta functions are proposed that include any even number of analytic parameters for which conditions of quasi-periodicity are fulfilled and that are representations of extended Heisenberg group. Differential…
We introduce the notion of an E_k-ring with prelogarithmic structure, define logarithmic topological Hochschild homology and logarithmic topological cyclic homology in this context, and establish localization sequences for these theories.…
An analytical method is developed describing the approach to a finite-time singularity associated with collapse of a narrow fluid layer in an unstable Hele-Shaw flow. Under the separation of time scales near a bifurcation point, a…
We introduce a new variational method for finding periodic orbits of flows and spatio-temporally periodic solutions of classical field theories, a generalization of the Newton method to a flow in the space of loops. The feasibility of the…
We specify exterior generators for $\pi_* THH(MU) = \pi_*(MU) \otimes E(\lambda'_n \mid n\ge1)$ and $\pi_* THH(BP) = \pi_*(BP) \otimes E(\lambda_n \mid n\ge1)$, and calculate the action of the $\sigma$-operator on these graded rings. In…
The Lewis-Zagier correspondence, which attaches period functions to Maa\ss\ wave forms, is extended to wave forms of higher order, which are higher invariants of the Fuchsian group in question. The key ingredient is an identification of…
