The Hurwitz form of a projective variety characterizes linear spaces of complementary dimension which meet the variety non-transversally. We extend this notion to varieties in a product of projective spaces. This parallels the multigraded…

In this letter we continue the development of $W$-representations. We propose several generalizations of the known models, such as the hypergeometric Hurwitz $\tau$-functions. We construct $W$-representations for multi-character expansions,…

The classical Sturm-Hurwitz-Kellogg theorem asserts that a function, orthogonal to an n-dimensional Chebyshev system on a circle, has at least n+1 sign changes. We prove the converse: given an n-dimensional Chebyshev system on a circle and…

The addition of angular momenta can be reduced to elementary coupling processes of spin-$\frac{1}{2}$-particles. In this way, a method is developed which allows for a non-recursive, simultaneous computation of all Clebsch-Gordan…

The Kustaanheimo-Stiefel (KS) transformation maps the non-linear and singular equations of motion of the three-dimensional Kepler problem to the linear and regular equations of a four-dimensional harmonic oscillator. It is used extensively…

By means of the Helmholtz theorem on the decomposition of vector fields, the angular momentum of the classical electromagnetic field is decomposed, in a general and manifestly gauge invariant manner, into a spin component and an orbital…

In this work we investigate the relation between curved momentum space and momentum-dependent gauge fields. While the former is a classic idea that has been shown to be tied to minimal-length models, the latter constitutes a relatively…

We construct the shifted genus expanded $\cal{W}_{\infty}$ algebra, which is isomorphic to the central subalgebra $\cal{A}_{\infty}$ of infinite symmetric group algebra and to the shifted Schur symmetrical function algebra $\Lambda^\ast$…

If we replace the general spacetime group of diffeomorphisms by transformations taking place in the tangent space, general relativity can be interpreted as a gauge theory, and in particular as a gauge theory for the Lorentz group. In this…

We develop the deformation theory of cohomological field theories (CohFTs), which is done as a special case of a general deformation theory of morphisms of modular operads. This leads us to introduce two new natural extensions of the notion…

We study the group of transformations of 4F3 hypergeometric functions evaluated at unity with one unit shift in parameters. We reveal the general form of this family of transformations and its group property. Next, we use explicitly known…

We consider general curvature-invariant modifications of the Einstein-Hilbert action that become important only in regions of extremely low space-time curvature. We investigate the far future evolution of the universe in such models,…

The famous Hadwiger theorem classifies all rigid motion invariant continuous valuations on convex sets as linear conbinations of quermassintegrals. We prove much more general result. We classify continuous valuations which are invariant…

We consider a maximal extension of the Hilbert-Einstein action and analyze several interesting features of the theory. More specifically, the motion is non-geodesic and takes place in the presence of an extra force. These models could lead…

In this work, we introduce a class of Timmermann's measured multiplier Hopf *-algebroids called algebraic quantum transformation groupoids of compact type. Each object in this class admits a Pontrjagin-like dual called an algebraic quantum…

The dynamics of spinning particles in curved space-time is discussed, emphasizing the hamiltonian formulation. Different choices of hamiltonians allow for the description of different gravitating systems. We give full results for the…

Hurwitz numbers, which count certain covers of the projective line (or, equivalently, factorizations of permuations into transpositions), have been extensively studied for over a century. The Gromov-Witten potential F of a point, the…

We prove some results which extend the classical theory, due to Hecke-Schoeneberg, of the transformation laws of theta functions. Although our results are classical in natural, they were suggested by recent work involving modular-invariance…
