Matrix hierarchies are: multi-component KP, general Zakharov-Shabat (ZS) and its special cases, e.g., AKNS. The ZS comprises all integrable systems having a form of zero-curvature equations with rational dependence of matrices on a spectral…

Today's quantum field theory (QFT) relies heavenly on canonical quantization (CQ), which fails for $\varphi^4_4$ leading only to a "free" result. Affine quantization (AQ), an alternative quantization procedure, leads to a "non-free" result…

Much work has been done on generalized factorization techniques in integral domains, namely $\tau$-factorization. There has also been substantial progress made in investigating factorization in commutative rings with zero-divisors. This…

We examine two associative products over the ring of symmetric functions related to the intransitive and Cartesian products of permutation groups. As an application, we give an enumeration of some Feynman type diagrams arising in Bender's…

We consider B\"acklund-Darboux transformations for integrable hierarchies of nonlinear equations such as KP, BKP and their close relatives referred to as modified KP and Schwarzian KP. We work in the framework of the bilinear formalism…

An algebraic analysis framework for quantum calculus is proposed. The quantum derivative operator $D_{\tau ,\sigma}$ is based on two commuting bijections $\tau$ and $\sigma$ defined on an arbitrary set $M$ equipped with a tension structure…

We show that the quantum field theoretical formulation of the $\tau$-function theory has a geometrical interpretation within the classical transformation theory of conjugate nets. In particular, we prove that i) the partial charge…

Results on the finite nonperiodic Toda lattice are extended to some generalizations of the system: The relativistic Toda lattice, the generalized Toda lattice associated with simple Lie groups and the full Kostant-Toda lattice. The areas…

We discuss relations of Vafa's quantum cohomology with Floer's homology theory, introduce equivariant quantum cohomology, formulate some conjectures about its general properties and, on the basis of these conjectures, compute quantum…

We generalize a number of works on the zeros of certain level 1 modular forms to a class of weakly holomorphic modular functions whose $q$-expansions satisfy \[ f_k(A, \tau) \colon = q^{-k}(1+a(1)q+a(2)q^2+...) + O(q),\] where $a(n)$ are…

The axiomatic formulation of quantum field theory (QFT) of the 1950's in terms of fields defined as operator valued Schwartz distributions is re-examined in the light of subsequent developments. These include, on the physical side, the…

In this paper, by making use of a certain family of fractional derivative operators in the complex domain, we introduce and investigate a new subclass $\mathcal{P}_{\tau,\mu}(k,\delta,\gamma)$ of analytic and univalent functions in the open…

We revisit dispersionless version of the multicomponent KP hierarchy considered previously by Takasaki and Takebe. In contrast to their study, we do not fix any distinguished component treating all of them on equal footing. We obtain…

We investigate the structure of $\tau$-functions for the elliptic difference Painlev\'e equation of type $E_8$. Introducing the notion of ORG $\tau$-functions for the $E_8$ lattice, we construct some particular solutions which are expressed…

We define covariantly a deformation of a given algebra, then we will see how it can be related to a deformation quantization of a class of observables in Quantum Field Theory. Then we will investigate the operator order related to this…

In this paper we develop the calculus of pseudo-differential operators corresponding to the quantizations of the form $$ Au(x)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}e^{i(x-y)\cdot\xi}\sigma(x+\tau(y-x),\xi)u(y)dyd\xi, $$ where…

We derive a formula for the connected $n$-point functions of a tau-function of the BKP hierarchy in terms of its affine coordinates. This is a BKP-analogue of a formula for KP tau-functions proved by Zhou in [arXiv:1507.01679]. Moreover, we…

We give a detailed account of the N -component Toda lattice hierarchy. This hierarchy is an extended version of the one introduced by Ueno and Takasaki. Our version contains N discrete variables rather than one. We start from the Lax…

We show that the k-double Schur functions defined by the authors, and the quantum double Schubert polynomials studied by Kirillov and Maeno and by Ciocan-Fontanine and Fulton, can be obtained from each other by an explicit rational…

We review some surprising links which have been discovered in the last few years between the theory of certain ordinary differential equations, and particular integrable lattice models and quantum field theories in two dimensions. An…
