We give the full representation theory of the gravitational extended corner symmetry group in two-dimensions. This includes projective representations, which correspond to representations of the quantum corner symmetry group. We find that…

Parreau compactified the Hitchin component of a closed surface $S$ of negative Euler characteristic in such a way that a boundary point corresponds to the projectivized length spectrum of an action of $\pi_1(S)$ on an $\mathbb R$-Euclidean…

In this paper, we study generalized symmetric Finsler spaces. We first study symmetry preserving diffeomorphisms, then we show that the group of symmetry preserving diffeomorphisms is a transitive Lie transformation group. Finally we give…

In a previous paper by Deroin-Tholozan, the authors construct a map $\mathbf{\Psi}_\rho$ from the Teichm\"uller space of $S$ to itself and prove that, when $M$ has sectional curvature $\leq -1$, the image of $\mathbf{\Psi}_\rho$ lies…

Recall that the group $PSL(2,\mathbb R)$ is isomorphic to $PSp(2,\mathbb R),\ SO_0(1,2)$ and $PU(1,1).$ The goal of this paper is to examine the various ways in which Fuchsian representations of the fundamental group of a closed surface of…

This paper is concerned with the primitive cohomology of a smooth projective hypersurface considered as a linear representation for its automorphism group. Using the Lefschetz-Riemann-Roch formula, the character of this representation is…

Stabilization, by deformation, of the Poincar\'{e}-Heisenberg algebra requires both the introduction of a fundamental lentgh and the noncommutativity of translations which is associated to the gravitational field. The noncommutative…

Given a reductive representation $\rho: \pi_1(S)\rightarrow G$, there exists a $\rho$-equivariant harmonic map $f$ from the universal cover of a fixed Riemann surface $\Sigma$ to the symmetric space $G/K$ associated to $G$. If the Hopf…

Let $\Sigma_g$ be a compact, connected, orientable surface of genus $g \geq 2$. We ask for a parametrization of the discrete, faithful, totally loxodromic representations in the deformation space ${\rm Hom}(\pi_1(\Sigma_g), {\rm…

The representation of the conformal group (PSU(2,2)) on the space of solutions to Maxwell's equations on the conformal compactification of Minkowski space is shown to break up into four irreducible unitarizable smooth Fr\'echet…

For a symmetric $R$-space $K/L=G/P$ the standard intertwining operators provide a canonical $G$-invariant pairing between sections of line bundles over $G/P$ and its opposite $G/\overline{P}$. Twisting this pairing with an involution of $G$…

Finsler and Lagrange spaces can be equivalently represented as almost Kahler manifolds enabled with a metric compatible canonical distinguished connection structure generalizing the Levi Civita connection. The goal of this paper is to…

We describe a set of coordinates on the PU(2,1)-representation variety of the fundamental group of an oriented punctured surface $S$ with negative Euler characteristic. The main technical tool we use is a set of geometric invariants of a…

We investigate the reflection of a Gaussian beam impinging upon the surface of an epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) medium. In particular, we discuss the occurrence of Goos-H\"anchen and Imbert-Fedorov shifts. Our calculations reveal that spatial…

A variation of the Zamolodchikov-Faddeev algebra over a finite dimensional Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and an involutive unitary $R$-Matrix $S$ is studied. This algebra carries a natural vacuum state, and the corresponding Fock…

Let $K$ be a global field of positive characteristic. Let $\infty$ be a fixed place of $K$. This paper gives an explicit isomorphism between the space of automorphic forms (resp. cusp forms) for $GL_{n+1}(K)$ that transform like the special…

It is known that on $\mathrm{RCD}$ spaces one can define a distributional Ricci tensor ${\bf Ric}$. Here we give a fine description of this object by showing that it admits the polar decomposition $${\bf Ric}=\omega\,|{\bf Ric}|$$ for a…

In this paper, we establish some rigidity theorems for space-like hypersurfaces in Minkowski space by using a Weinberger-type approach with P-functions and integral identities. Firstly, for space-like hypersurfaces $M$ represented as graphs…

We define a symmetry for a Finsler space with Chern connection and investigate its implementation and properties and find a relation between them and flag curvature.

The paper aims to initiate a systematic study of conformal mappings between Finsler spacetimes and, more generally, between pseudo-Finsler spaces. This is done by extending several results in pseudo-Riemannian geometry which are necessary…
