The aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the path-dependent Stochastic Volterra Integral Equations (SVIEs), in which both the drift and the diffusion coefficients are allowed to depend on the whole trajectory of the…
We present a way for calculating the Lagrangian path integral measure directly from the Hamiltonian Schwinger--Dyson equations. The method agrees with the usual way of deriving the measure, however it may be applied to all theories, even…
Anderson localization is derived directly from the path integral representation of quantum mechanics in the presence of a random potential energy function. The probability distribution of the potential energy is taken to be a Gaussian in…
In this short note, we give a localized version of the basic triangle theorem, first published in 2011 (see [4]) in order to prove the independence of hyperlogarithms over various function fields. This version provides direct access to…
In this note we present a formula for the equivariant index of the cohomological complex obtained from localization of $\mathcal{N}=2$ SYM on simply-connected compact four-manifolds with a $T^2$-action. Knowledge of said index is essential…
Spectral triples for nonunital algebras model locally compact spaces in noncommutative geometry. In the present text, we prove the local index formula for spectral triples over nonunital algebras, without the assumption of local units in…
A geometric model for twisted $K$-homology is introduced. It is modeled after the Mathai-Melrose-Singer fractional analytic index theorem in the same way as the Baum-Douglas model of $K$-homology was modeled after the Atiyah-Singer index…
We give a new short proof of the index formula of Atiyah and Singer based on combining Getzler's rescaling with Greiner's approach of the heat kernel asymptotics. As application we can easily compute the Connes-Moscovici cyclic cocycle of…
We use localization to compute the partition function of a four dimensional, supersymmetric, abelian gauge theory on a hemisphere coupled to charged matter on the boundary. Our theory has eight real supercharges in the bulk of which four…
An anticommuting analogue of Brownian motion, corresponding to fermionic quantum mechanics, is developed, and combined with classical Brownian motion to give a generalised Feynman-Kac-It\^o formula for paths in geometric supermanifolds.…
We provide a new proof of Alesker's Irreducibility Theorem. We first introduce a new localization technique for polynomial valuations on convex bodies, which we use to independently prove that smooth and translation invariant valuations are…
We apply the antifield quantization method of Batalin and Vilkovisky to the calculation of the path integral for the Poisson-Sigma model in a general gauge. For a linear Poisson structure the model reduces to a nonabelian gauge theory, and…
We derive a localization formula for the refined index of gauged quantum mechanics with four supercharges. Our answer takes the form of a residue integral on the complexified Cartan subalgebra of the gauge group. The formula captures the…
This paper is concerned with the localization of higher analytic indices for Lie groupoids. Let $\gr$ be a Lie groupoid with Lie algebroid $A\gr$. Let $\tau$ be a (periodic) cyclic cocycle over the convolution algebra $\cg$. We say that…
Inspired by an analytic construction of Chang, Weinberger and Yu, we define an assembly map in relative geometric $K$-homology. The properties of the geometric assembly map are studied using a variety of index theoretic tools (e.g., the…
We apply localization techniques to topologically $A$-twisted $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric theories of vector and chiral multiplets on $S^{2}$ and derive a novel exact formula for abelian observables, described by a distribution…
Atiyah-Singer index theorem on a lattice without boundary is well understood owing to the seminal work by Hasenfratz et al. But its extension to the system with boundary (the so-called Atiyah- Patodi-Singer index theorem), which plays a…
In this text, we are concerned with ring epimorphisms, and more specifically universal localisations, from path algebras to matrix algebras. We are mainly focused on constructing ring epimorphisms and universal localisations by extending…
Equivariant cohomology, a captivating fusion of symmetry and abstract mathematics, illuminates the profound role of group actions in shaping geometric structures. At its core lies the Atiyah-Bott Localization Theorem, a mathematical jewel…
In his book (II.5), Connes gives a proof of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem for closed manifolds by using deformation groupoids and appropiate actions of these on R^N. Following these ideas, we prove an index theorem for manifolds with…
