Some cohomology elements, called $\nu$ classes, as a supergeneralization of universal Chern classes, are introduced for canonical super line bundles over $\nu$ projective spaces, a novel supergeometric generalization of projective spaces.…

The Chern class of the sheaf of logarithmic derivations along a simple normal crossing divisor equals the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of the complement of the divisor. We extend this equality to more general divisors, which are locally…

We apply the self consistency method for determining critical exponents to a model with a four fermi interaction coupled to QED and compute various gauge independent exponents in arbitrary dimensions in the large $N$ expansion at $O(1/N)$.…

We show that the universal odd Chern form, defined on the stable unitary group $U$, extends to the loop group $LU$ in a way that is closed with respect to an equivariant-type differential. This provides an odd analogue to the Bismut-Chern…

The theory of Schur functors provides a powerful and elegant approach to the representation theory of GL_n - at least to the so-called polynomial representations - especially to questions about how the theory varies with n. We develop…

We characterize the extendibility of the normal curvature on frontals and we give a representation formula of this type of frontals. Also we give representation formulas for wavefronts on all types of singularities and others sub classes of…

We give a closed-form expression for the associated Meixner polynomials from which we derive closed-form expressions for the associated Charlier and Laguerre polynomials by a limit procedure. These formulas are then used to derive…

We express a general 4-hyperlogarithm as a linear combination of 4-hyperlogarithms in two variables. We reduce the Zagier's conjecture for $n=4$ to a combinatorial statement. We give a short survey of the strategy of Goncharov and Zagier…

We develop a novel and systematic approach to computing the $(2n-1)$-form Chern-Simons potential given the Pontryagin density, i.e. the $n^{\text{th}}$ Chern character, in arbitrary even dimensions $D=2 n \geq 2$. Throughout we work with a…

We show the existence of and explicitly construct generic polynomials for various groups, over fields of positive characteristic. The methods we develop apply to a broad class of connected linear algebraic groups defined over finite fields…

We quantize a generalized electromagnetism in 2 + 1 dimensions which contains a higher-order derivative term by using Dirac's method. By introducing auxiliary fields we transform the original theory in a lower-order derivative one which can…

A generalization of the generating function for Gegenbauer polynomials is introduced whose coefficients are given in terms of associated Legendre functions of the second kind. We discuss how our expansion represents a generalization of…

We generalize the Giveon-Kutasov duality by adding possible Chern-Simons interactions for the $U(N)$ gauge group. Some of the generalized dualities are known in the literature and many others are new to the best of our knowledge. The…

In this paper, I generalize the formula that the integration of Chern forms of hermitian line bundles equals the algebraic intersection number of the underlying line bundles. I generalize it to a formula on a quasi-projective variety over a…
