It is known, that every function on the unit sphere in $\bbr^n$, which is invariant under rotations about some coordinate axis, is completely determined by a function of one variable. Similar results, when invariance of a function reduces…
We study actions for massive bosonic particles of higher spins by dimensionally reducing an action for massless particles. For the latter we take a model with a SO(N) extended local supersymmetry on the worldline, that is known to describe…
The issue of general covariance of spinors and related objects is reconsidered. Given an oriented manifold $M$, to each spin structure $\sigma$ and Riemannian metric $g$ there is associated a space $S_{\sigma, g}$ of spinor fields on $M$…
We give the description of discretized moduli spaces (d.m.s.) $\Mcdisc$ introduced in \cite{Ch1} in terms of a discrete de Rham cohomologies for each moduli space $\Mgn$ of a genus $g$, $n$ being the number of punctures. We demonstrate that…
Commutator relations are used to investigate the spectra of Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians, $H = -\Delta + V({x}),$ acting on functions of a smooth, compact $d$-dimensional manifold $M$ immersed in $\bbr^{\nu}, \nu \geq d+1$. Here $\Delta$…
We are interested in differential forms on mixed-dimensional geometries, in the sense of a domain containing sets of $d$-dimensional manifolds, structured hierarchically so that each $d$-dimensional manifold is contained in the boundary of…
We show that the particle states of Maxwell's theory, in $D$ dimensions, can be represented in an infinite number of ways by using different gauge fields. Using this result we formulate the dynamics in terms of an infinite set of duality…
Recently a definition for a Lorentz invariant operator approximating the d'Alembertian in d-dimensional causal set space-times has been proposed. This operator contains several dimension-dependent constants which have been determined for…
Diffeomorphisms can be seen as automorphisms of the algebra of functions. In the matrix regularization, functions on a smooth compact manifold are mapped to finite size matrices. We consider how diffeomorphisms act on the configuration…
An elliptic theory is constructed for operators acting in subspaces defined via odd pseudodifferential projections. Subspaces of this type arise as Calderon subspaces for first order elliptic differential operators on manifolds with…
The Lasserre's reconstruction algorithm is extended to the D-polytopes with the construction of their shape space. Thus, the areas of d-skeletons $(1\leq d\leq D)$ can be expressed as functions of the areas and normal bi-vectors of the…
A particle which lives in a d-dimensional ordinary and a d-dimensional Grassmann space manifests itself in an ordinary four-dimensional subspace as a spinor, a scalar or a vector with charges. Operators of the Lorentz transformations and…
The general construction of self-adjoint configuration space representations of the Heisenberg algebra over an arbitrary manifold is considered. All such inequivalent representations are parametrised in terms of the topology classes of flat…
We study integration over functions on superspaces. These functions are invariant under a transformation which maps the whole superspace onto the part of the superspace which only comprises purely commuting variables. We get a compact…
We present a generalization of the Clifford action for other representations spaces of $Spin(n)$, which is called the Clifford homomorphism. Their properties extend to the ones for the higher spin Dirac operators on spin manifolds. In…
A new generalized matrix inverse is derived which is consistent with respect to arbitrary nonsingular diagonal transformations, e.g., it preserves units associated with variables under state space transformations, thus providing a general…
It is well known that the Einstein-Hilbert action in two dimensions is topological and yields an identically vanishing Einstein tensor. Consequently one is faced with difficulties when formulating a non-trivial gravity model. We present a…

The spectral theorem of the linear 2D Euler operator in Sobolev spaces is presented as a corollary of the spectral theorem in $\ell_2$ space in [Li,00]. Study on the (dashed) line model introduced in [Li,01] is continued. Specifically,…
