We present new criteria, based on commutator methods, for the strong mixing property of discrete flows $\{U^N\}_{N\in\mathbb Z}$ and continuous flows $\{{\rm e}^{-itH}\}_{t\in\mathbb R}$ induced by unitary operators $U$ and self-adjoint…
We study the interplay between the diagonal flow on, and the topology of, a stratum component of a space of rooted quadratic differentials. We prove that the flow group -- the subgroup of the fundamental group generated by almost-flow loops…
We study the existence of the stochastic flow associated to a linear stochastic evolution equation $$d X= AX\,d t +\sum_{k} B_k X\,d W_k, $$ on a Hilbert space. Our first result covers the case where $A$ is the generator of a…
Hamilton flows on K\"ahler manifold for which all trajectories are $H$-planar curves (complex analog of geodesics) are considered. These flows are called $H$-planar. The equation which has to obey the Hamiltonian of $H$-planar Hamilton flow…
Inspired by work of Besson-Courtois-Gallot, we construct a flow called the natural flow on a non-positively curved Riemannian manifold $M$. As with the natural map, the $k$-Jacobian of the natural flow is directly related to the critical…
In this paper, we propose Continuous Graph Flow, a generative continuous flow based method that aims to model complex distributions of graph-structured data. Once learned, the model can be applied to an arbitrary graph, defining a…
The Hochschild and cyclic homology groups are computed for the algebra of `cusp' pseudodifferential operators on any compact manifold with boundary. The index functional for this algebra is interpreted as a Hochschild 1-cocycle and…
These notes are based on three lectures given by the second author at Copenhagen University (October 2009) and at Aarhus University, Denmark (December 2009). We mostly present here a survey of results of Dieter Mayer on relations between…
We derive lower und upper bounds for the degree of regularity of an overdetermined, zero-dimensional and homogeneous quadratic semi-regular system of polynomial equations. The analysis is based on the interpretation of the associated…
Self-similar symmetric $\alpha$-stable, $\alpha\in(0,2)$, mixed moving averages can be related to nonsingular flows. By using this relation and the structure of the underlying flows, one can decompose self-similar mixed moving averages into…
We consider generalised Dirac--Schr\"odinger operators, consisting of a self-adjoint elliptic first-order differential operator D with a skew-adjoint 'potential' given by a (suitable) family of unbounded operators. The index of such an…
By an appropriate definition, we divide the irregular set into level sets. Then we characterize the multifractal spectrum of these new pieces by calculating their entropies. We also compute the entropies of various intersections of the…
We identify incompressible planar linear flows that are generalizations of the well known one-parameter family characterized by the ratio of in-plane extension to (out-of-plane) vorticity. The latter `canonical' family is classified into…
We relate the spectral flow to the index for paths of selfadjoint Breuer-Fredholm operators affiliated to a semifinite von Neumann algebra, generalizing results of Robbin-Salamon and Pushnitski. Then we prove the vanishing of the von…
Consider a holomorphic torus action on a possibly non-compact K\"ahler manifold. We show that the higher cohomology groups appearing in the geometric quantization of the symplectic quotient are isomorphic to the invariant parts of the…
First, we prove a local spectral flow formula (Theorem 3.7) for a differentiable curve of selfadjoint Fredholm operators. This formula enables us to prove in a simple way a general spectral flow formula. Secondly, we prove a splitting…
In this paper, we study the spectral orthogonality problem for special flows built over irrational rotations under two different types of roof functions: 1) the roof functions are real analytic. 2) the roof functions are piecewise $C^1$…
We investigate index theory in the context of Dirac operators coupled to superconnections. In particular, we prove a local index theorem for such operators, and for families of such operators. We investigate eta-invariants and prove an…
The parameter space of the Feigin-Fuks representations of the N=4 SU(2)$_k$ superconformal algebras is studied from the viewpoint of the specral flow. The $\eta$ phase of the spectral flow is nicely incorporated through twisted fermions and…
We shall study a turbulence model arising in compressible fluid mechanics. The model called $\theta - \phi$ we study is closely related to the k-epsilon model. We shall establish existence, positivity and regularity results in a very…
