We introduce a framework for degenerate classical field theories in the BV formalism, which allows us to discuss many interesting examples of theories which do not admit a Lagrangian description. Further, we study phase spaces and boundary…

There are abundant results on Diophantine approximation over fields of positive characteristic (see the survey papers [13, 25]), but there is very little information about simultaneous approximation. In this paper, we develop a technique of…

Gauge symmetries indicate redundancies in the description of the relevant degrees of freedom of a given field theory and restrict the nature of observable quantities. One of the problems faced by emergent theories of relativistic fields is…

For every natural number $m$, the existentially closed models of the theory of fields with $m$ commuting derivations can be given a first-order geometric characterization in several ways. In particular, the theory of these differential…

We consider coupling an ordinary quantum field theory with an infinite number of degrees of freedom to a topological field theory. On R^d the new theory differs from the original one by the spectrum of operators. Sometimes the local…
