In a standard quantum field theory the norm $\langle \Omega\vert \Omega\rangle$ of the vacuum state is taken to be finite. In this paper we provide a procedure, based on constructing an equivalent wave mechanics, for determining whether or…
We prove that the Sierpi\'nski gasket is non-removable for quasiconformal maps, thus answering a question of Bishop. The proof involves a new technique of constructing an exceptional homeomorphism from $\mathbb R^2$ into some non-planar…
We consider the general nonvanishing, divergence-free vector fields defined on a domain in three space and tangent to its boundary. Based on the theory of finite type invariants, we define a family of invariants for such fields, in the…
Conditions are given under which an infinitesimal automorphism of a torsion-free connection preserving a symplectic form is necessarily a symplectic vector field. An example is given of a compact symplectic manifold admitting a flat…
We give a combinatorial proof, using the hyperbolicity of the curve graphs, of the bounded geodesic image theorem of Masur and Minsky. Recently it has been shown that curve graphs are uniformly hyperbolic, thus a universal bound can be…
Tropical geometry yields good lower bounds, in terms of certain combinatorial-polyhedral optimisation problems, on the dimensions of secant varieties. In particular, it gives an attractive pictorial proof of the theorem of Hirschowitz that…
In the present paper, we provide a new analogy between number fields and 1-dimensional function fields over finite fields from the viewpoint that the maximal cyclotomic extension of a number field is analogous to the constant field…
A set of algebraic equations for the topological properties of space-time is derived, and used to extend general relativity into the Planck domain. A unique basis set of three-dimensional prime manifolds is constructed which consists of…
In this article, we give explicit examples of infinitely many non-commensurable (non-arithmetic) hyperbolic $3$-manifolds admitting exactly $k$ totally geodesic surfaces for any positive integer $k$, answering a question of Bader, Fisher,…
Most approaches towards a quantum theory of gravitation indicate the existence of a minimal length scale of the order of the Planck length. Quantum mechanical models incorporating such an intrinsic length scale call for a deformation of…
We prove that the non-squeezing theorem of Gromov holds for symplectomorphisms on an infinite-dimensional symplectic Hilbert space, under the assumption that the image of the ball is convex. The proof is based on the construction by duality…
In this paper we consider an extended Gauss-Bonnet gravity theory in arbitrary dimensions and in a space provided with a Weyl connection, which is torsionless but not metric-compatible, the non-metricity tensor being determined by a vector…
The analysis of the validity of Birkhoff's theorem about the uniqueness of the spherically symmetric solution of the gravitational field equations is extended to the framework of the Poincar\'e gauge gravity theory. The class of models with…
We use spectral theory and algebraic geometry to establish a higher-degree analogue of a Szemer\'edi--Trotter-type theorem over finite fields, with an application to polynomial expansion.
It is well known that ordered exponential fields with a compatible non-trivial valuation cannot be spherically complete, but there are some that are ``complete enough''. This paper gives analogues of Kaplansky's theorem on maximally valued…
In this paper, we introduce the concepts of weaknorm, quasi-weaknorm on real vector spaces. By these concepts, we introduce the concept of quasi-locally convex topological vector spaces, which include locally convex topological vector…
We consider certain estimates involving averaging operators over curves and hypersurfaces that can be cast into a combinatorial framework. We show that hypersurfaces with nonzero rotational curvature satisfy the usual restricted weak-type…
The infinite dimensional generalization of the quantum mechanics of extended objects, namely, the quantum field theory of extended objects is presented. The paradigm example studied in this paper is the Euclidean scalar field with a…
Theories of low-energy Lorentz violation by a fixed-norm "aether" vector field with two-derivative kinetic terms have a globally bounded Hamiltonian and are perturbatively stable only if the vector is timelike and the kinetic term in the…
A new idea of quantum gravity is developed based on {\it Gravitational Complementary Principle}. This principle states that gravity has dual complement features: The quantum and classical aspects of gravity are complement and absolutely…
