We show that the range of applicability of the change of representation formula derived in J. Math. Phys. \textbf{54}, 033513 (2013) [arXiv:1302.6928] is very narrow and extend it to include all physical applications, particularly,…
Sequences of discrete Levy and adjoint Levy transformations for the multidimensional quadrilateral lattices are studied. After a suitable number of iterations we show how all the relevant geometrical features of the transformed…
Multidimensional matrix inversions provide a powerful tool for studying multiple hypergeometric series. In order to extend this technique to elliptic hypergeometric series, we present three new multidimensional matrix inversions. As…
I review the lattice QCD approach to determining hadronic decay transitions. Examples considered include rho to pi pi; b_1 to pi omega; hybrid meson decays and scalar meson decays. I discuss what lattices can provide to help understand the…
The monograph contains a systematic treatment of a circle of problems in analysis and integral geometry related to inversion of the Radon transform on the space of real rectangular matrices. This transform assigns to a function $f$ on the…
These notes concern linear transformations on R^n and C^n, exponentials of linear transformations, and some related geometric questions.
This is the second in a series of papers on natural modification of the normal tractor connection in a parabolic geometry, which naturally prolongs an underlying overdetermined system of invariant differential equations. We give a short…
The spherical Radon transform on the unit sphere can be regarded as a member of the analytic family of suitably normalized generalized cosine transforms. We derive new formulas for these transforms and apply them to study classes of…
This note collects together useful unit conversions and numerical values from early universe cosmology. It is a quick reference that can be used to make easy order-of-magnitude estimates. Included are tables for unit conversions, the…
The solution of the geodesic problem for an oblate ellipsoid is developed in terms of series. Tables are provided to simplify the computation. [This is an English translation of F. W. Bessel, Astronomische Nachrichten 4(86), 241-254 (1825).…
We show that gauge-transformation properties of correlation functions in chiral gauge theories on the finite lattice are determined in a general way.
Most of cosmological observables are light-propagated. I will present coordinates adapted to the propagation of null-like signals as observed by a geodesic observer. These "geodesic light-cone (GLC) coordinates" are general, adapted to…
A complete treatment of the intersections of two geodesics on the surface of an ellipsoid of revolution is given. With a suitable metric for the distances between intersections, bounds are placed on their spacing. This leads to fast and…
Astronomical data does not always use Cartesian coordinates. Both all-sky observational data and simulations of rotationally symmetric systems, such as accretion and protoplanetary discs, may use spherical polar or other coordinate systems.…
In this article, we give a geometric description for any invertible operator on a finite dimensional inner--product space. With the aid of such a description, we are able to decompose any given conformal transformation as a product of…
A brief overview of the authors' work on lattice chirality and its application to the numerical study of planar QCD is presented.
This work contributes to the analysis of linear geometric polygon transformations with the aim to force a desired shape by an iterative procedure.
We extend the application of Hamiltonian Monte Carlo to allow for sampling from probability distributions defined over symmetric or Hermitian positive definite matrices. To do so, we exploit the Riemannian structure induced by Cartan's…
A natural extension of Riemannian geometry to a much wider context is presented on the basis of the iterated differential form formalism developed in math.DG/0605113 and an application to general relativity is given.
The geodesic total curvature of rectifiable spherical curves is analyzed. We extend to the case of high dimension spheres the explicit formula that holds true for curves supported into the 2-sphere. For this purpose, we take advantage of…
