We consider perturbative quantum field theory in the causal framework. Gauge invariance is, in this framework, an identity involving chronological products of the interaction Lagrangian; it express the fact that the scattering matrix must…

Given a compact metric space $X$, the collection of Borel probability measures on $X$ can be made into a compact metric space via the Kantorovich metric. We partially generalize this well known result to projection-valued measures. In…

We study integralgeometric representations of variations of general sets $A$ in the Euclidean n-space without any regularity assumptions. If we assume, for example, that just one partial derivative of its characteristic function $\chi^A$ is…

Previous analyses on the gauge invariance of the action for a generally covariant system are generalized. It is shown that if the action principle is properly improved, there is as much gauge freedom at the endpoints for an arbitrary gauge…

We give a construction of a universal average of Lie algebra elements whose exponentiation gives (when there is an associated Lie group) a totally symmetric geometric mean of Lie group elements (sufficiently closed to the identity) with the…

In \cite{g5}, we defined and investigated the grand Wiener amalgam space $W(L^{p),\theta_1}(\Omega), L^{q),\theta_2}(\Omega))$ , where $1<p,q<\infty, \theta_1>0, \theta_2>0$, $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^{n} $ and the Lebesgue measure of…

Linear cosmological perturbation theory is pivotal to a theoretical understanding of current cosmological experimental data provided e.g. by cosmic microwave anisotropy probes. A key issue in that theory is to extract the gauge invariant…

Let $M=G/H$ be a compact connected isotropy irreducible Riemannian homogeneous manifold, where $G$ is a compact Lie group (may be, disconnected) acting on $M$ by isometries. This class includes all compact irreducible Riemannian symmetric…

We take advantage of the principal bundle geometry of the space of connections to obtain general results on the presymplectic structure of two classes of (pure) gauge theories: invariant theories, and non-invariant theories satisfying two…

We develop the necessary tools, including a notion of logarithmic derivative for curves in homogeneous spaces, for deriving a general class of equations including Euler-Poincar\'e equations on Lie groups and homogeneous spaces. Orbit…

Let $\lambda$ be a probability measure on $\mathbb T^{n-1}$ where $n=2$ or 3. Suppose $\lambda$ is invariant, ergodic and has positive entropy with respect to the linear transformation defined by a hyperbolic matrix. We get a measure $\mu $…

Co lombeau's construction of generalized functions (in its special variant) is extended to a theory of generalized sections of vector bundles. As particular cases, generalized tensor analysis and exterior algebra are studied. A point value…

For any compact connected Lie group $G$, we introduce a novel notion of average signature $\mathbb A(G)$ valued in its tensor Lie algebra, by taking the average value of the signature of the unique length-minimizing geodesics between all…

Let $G$ be a Lie group and $\Gamma$ be a lattice in $G$. We introduce the notion of locally unipotent invariant measures on $G/\Gamma$. We then prove that under some conditions, the limit measure supported on the image of polynomial…

We discuss the algebra of general gauge theories that are described by the embedding tensor formalism. We compare the gauge transformations dependent and independent of an invariant action, and argue that the generic transformations lead to…

We propose a generalization of non-commutative geometry and gauge theories based on ternary Z_3-graded structures. In the new algebraic structures we define, we leave all products of two entities free, imposing relations on ternary products…

The quantum completion of the space of connections in a manifold can be seen as the set of all morphisms from the groupoid of the edges of the manifold to the (compact) gauge group. This algebraic construction generalizes an analogous…

This article provides a concise introduction to the theory of Haar measures on locally compact Hausdorff groups. We cover the necessary preliminaries on topological groups and measure theory, the Haar correspondence, unimodularity and Haar…

The predictions of the Mirror Symmetry are extended in dimensions n>3 and are proven for projective complete intersections Calabi-Yau varieties. Precisely, we prove that the total collection of rational Gromov-Witten invariants of such…
