Stokes' theorem is central to many aspects of physics -- electromagnetism, the Aharonov-Bohm effect, and Wilson loops to name a few. However, the pedagogical examples and research work almost exclusively focus on situations where the fields…

Stokes phenomenon refers to the fact that the asymptotic expansion of complex functions can differ in different regions of the complex plane, and that beyond the so-called Stokes lines has an unphysical divergence. An important special case…

We discuss monodromy relations between different color-ordered amplitudes in gauge theories. We show that Jacobi-like relations of Bern, Carrasco and Johansson can be introduced in a manner that is compatible with these monodromy relations.…

We show sharpened forms of the concentration of measure phenomenon centered at first order stochastic expansions. The bound are based on second order difference operators and second order derivatives. Applications to functions on the…

We show that the Kontsevich integral on $n\times n$ matrices ($n< \infty$) is the isomonodromic tau function associated to a $2\times 2$ Riemann--Hilbert problem. The approach allows us to gain control of the analysis of the convergence as…

We characterise the quantum group gauge symmetries underlying q-deformations of two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory by studying their relationships with the matrix models that appear in Chern-Simons theory and six-dimensional N=2 gauge…

In the present paper, a general theory for the second-order matrix difference equation of bilateral type is discussed. We introduced the matrix $q$-Kummer equation of bilateral type and presented the $q$-Kummer matrix function as a series…

We prove that in dimension $n\ge 2$ the main singularities of a complex potential $q$ having a certain a priori regularity are contained in the Born approximation $q_{B}$ constructed from backscattering data. This is archived using a new…

Let q_1, ..., q_n be some variables and set K:=Z[q_1, ..., q_n]/(q_1q_2...q_n). We show that there exists a K-bilinear product \star on H^*(F_n;Z)\otimes K which is uniquely determined by some quantum cohomology like properties (most…

In this paper, we determine the connection coefficients for Okubo's canonical solution matrix of types ${\rm I}$, ${\rm I}^*$, ${\rm II}$ and ${\rm III}$ in Yokoyama's list.To solve these problems, we investigate a special type of Katz…

We study the WKB expansion of $2\times 2$ system of linear differential equations with four fuchsian singularities. The main focus is on the generating function of the monodromy symplectomorphism which, according to a recent paper is…

This paper aims at looking for Frobenius subcategories, via the separated monomorphism category ${\rm smon}(Q, I, \x)$, and on the other hand, to establish an {\rm RSS} equivalence from ${\rm smon}(Q, I, \x)$ to its dual ${\rm sepi}(Q, I,…

The article studies the Fifth Painlev\'e equation and of the nonlinear Stokes phenomenon at its irregular singularity at infinity from the point of view of confluence from the Sixth Painlev\'e equation. This approach is developped…

We consider the phase-integral method applied to an arbitrary ordinary linear differential equation of the second-order and study how its symmetries affect the connection matrices associated with its general solution. We reduce the obtained…

We consider the third order differential equation derived from the deformed Seiberg-Witten differential for pure ${\cal N}=2$ SYM with gauge group $SU(3)$ in Nekrasov-Shatashvili limit of $\Omega$-background. We show that this is the same…

The general idea of this paper is to start from a classical integrable (partial differential) equation which arises as a compatibility condition for a matrix linear differential problem. For definitiveness' sake, a generalised sinh-Gordon…

In this work we study the presence of kinks in models described by a single real scalar field in bidimensional spacetime. We work within the first-order framework, and we show how to write first-order differential equations that solve the…

We describe a relation between Arnold's strange duality and a polar duality between the Newton polytopes which is mostly due to M.~Kobayashi. We show that this relation continues to hold for the extension of Arnold's strange duality found…

2-Dim quantum Poincare` Group E_q(1,1) at roots of unity, its dual U_q(e(1,1)) and some of its homogeneous spaces are introduced. Invariant integrals on E_q(1,1) and its invariant discrete subgroup E(1,1\mid p) are constructed.…

We use nonstandard analysis to formulate quantum mechanics in hyperfinite-dimensional spaces. Self-adjoint operators on hyperfinite-dimensional spaces have complete eigensets, and bound states and continuum states of a Hamiltonian can thus…
