In this paper we derive a Gauss-Bonnet formula for the renormalized area of Graham-Witten minimal hypersurfaces of 5-dimensional Poincar\'e-Einstein spaces. The formula we derive expresses the renormalized area in terms of integrals of…
The Gauss-Bonnet density `a la Palatini' is not a total derivative in four dimensions. We study spherically symmetric fields for the torsion-free theory. The resulting equations are highly complicated but we show the existence of unexpected…
We formulate the field-space geometry for an effective field theory of scalars and gauge bosons. Geometric invariants such as the field-space curvature enter in both scattering amplitudes and the renormalization group equations, with the…
The Schroedinger equation is solved exactly within the Born-Oppenheimer approximation for a simulacrum of the $H_3^{++}$-ion. The ion is assumed to form an isosceles triangle and the ground state energy is obtained over its geometrical…
In this paper, I present a novel, purely differential geometric approach to the quantization of scalar fields, with a special focus on the familiar case of Minkowski spacetimes. This approach is based on using the natural geometric…
We compute the cohomology of polygon spaces using their identification to (semi) stable configuration of weighted points on complex projective line. This cohomology is already given by J.C.Hausmann and A. Knutson but we use a different…
Using spin 1/2 particle elastic scattering on a fixed target, in a 1/|x| potential on Euclidean metric, a minimum scattering cross section appears from the spin contribution. Interpreted as semi-classical limit of an earlier proposed…

The generalization of the area theorem is derived for the case of a pulse circulating inside a ring laser cavity. In contrast to the standard area theorem, which is valid for a single pass of a traveling pulse through a resonant medium, the…
This paper deals with different image theorems, i.e., Love's equivalence principle, the induction equivalence principle and the physical optics equivalence principle, in the spherical geometry. The deviation of image theorem approximation…
We consider the numerical approximation of surfaces of prescribed Gaussian curvature via the solution of a fully nonlinear partial differential equation of Monge-Amp\`ere type. These surfaces need not be continuous up to the boundary of the…
We consider a relaxed notion of energy of non-parametric codimension one surfaces that takes account of area, mean curvature, and Gauss curvature. It is given by the best value obtained by approximation with inscribed polyhedral surfaces.…
We generalize the spherical harmonics for l=1 and give the differential equation that the generalized forms satisfy. The new forms have an obvious interpretation in the context of quantum mechanics.
A spherical n-gon is a bordered surface homeomorphic to a closed disk, with n distinguished boundary points called corners, equipped with a Riemannian metric of constant curvature 1, except at the corners, and such that the boundary arcs…
In this note, I would like to discuss an approach to the construction of Green's function on algebraic surfaces, indicated by Manin, towards the computation of the Green's function on surfaces using Schottky uniformization. We shall see…
The area method is a decision procedure for geometry developed by Chou et al. in the 1990's. The method aims to reduce the specified hypothesis to an algebraically verifiable form by applying elimination lemmas. The order in which the…
Krein space quantization and the ambient space formalism have been successfully applied to address challenges in quantum geometry (e.g., quantum gravity) and the axiomatic formulation of quantum Yang-Mills theory, including phenomena such…
We show how to formulate physical theory taking as a starting point the set of states (geometric approach). We discuss the relation of this formulation to the conventional approach to classical and quantum mechanics and the theory of…
We extend known prequantization procedures for Poisson and presymplectic manifolds by defining the prequantization of a Dirac manifold P as a principal U(1)-bundle Q with a compatible Dirac-Jacobi structure. We study the action of Poisson…
