Operator product expansions (OPE) for the product of a scalar field with its conjugate are presented as infinite sums of bilocal fields V_k (x_1, x_2) of dimension (k,k). For a {\it globally conformal invariant} (GCI) theory we write down…
Let $X$ be a rearrangement-invariant space over a non-atomic $\sigma$-finite measure space $(\mathscr{R},\mu)$ and let $\alpha\in(0,\infty)$. We define the functional \begin{equation*} \|f\|_{X^{\langle \alpha \rangle}} =…
In this study, we explore the field of physics through the lens of fractional dimensionality. We propose that space is not confined to integer dimensions alone, but can also be understood as a superposition of spaces that exist between…
This paper studies absolute integrability for functions with values in semi- normed spaces and in locally convex topological vector spaces (LCTVS). We introduce an \emph{upper-integral} approach (based on a $\rho$-variational measure…
In the last decade there has been a growing interest in superoscillations in various fields of mathematics, physics and engineering. However, while in applications as optics the local oscillatory behaviour is the important property, some…
(abridged)The achievements of the present work include: a) A clarification of the multiple definition given by Bergmann of the concept of {\it (Bergmann) observable. This clarification leads to the proposal of a {\it main conjecture}…
Physical geometry studies mutual disposition of geometrical objects and points in space, or space-time, which is described by the distance function d, or by the world function \sigma =d^{2}/2. One suggests a new general method of the…
Invariant ergodic measures for generalized Boole type transformations are studied using an invariant quasi-measure generating function approach based on special solutions to the Frobenius--Perron operator. New two-dimensional Boole type…
We define an integral of real-valued functions with respect to a measure that takes its values in the extended positive cone of a partially ordered vector space $E$. The monotone convergence theorem, Fatou's lemma, and the dominated…

The Maxwell extension of the conformal algebra is presented. With the help of gauging the Maxwell-conformal group, a conformally invariant theory of gravity is constructed. In contrast to the conventional conformally invariant actions, our…
We consider a model of Bose-Einstein condensate of weakly interacting off-shell gravitons in the regime that is far from the quantum critical point. Working in static spherically symmetric setup, recent study has demonstrated that the…
Crofton's formula of integral geometry evaluates the total motion invariant measure of the set of $k$-dimensional planes having nonempty intersection with a given convex body. This note deals with motion invariant measures on sets of pairs…
A deformed relativistic kinematics can be understood within a geometrical framework through a maximally symmetric momentum space. However, when considering this kind of approach, usually one works in a flat spacetime and in a curved…
We study the breakdown of conformal symmetry in a conformally invariant gravitational model. The symmetry breaking is introduced by defining a preferred conformal frame in terms of the large scale characteristics of the universe. In this…
It has been found empirically that quasi-Monte Carlo methods are often efficient for very high-dimensional problems, that is, with dimension in the hundreds or even thousands. The common explanation for this surprising fact is that those…
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…
Inspired by group cohomology, we define several coarse topological invariants of metric spaces. We define the coarse cohomological dimension of a metric space, and demonstrate that if G is a countable group, then the coarse cohomological…
Properties of 2-dimensional generalizations of sine functions that are symmetric or antisymmetric with respect to permutation of their two variables are described. It is shown that the functions are orthogonal when integrated over a finite…
By restricting the functional integration to the Regge geometries, we give the discretized version of the well known path integral formulation of 2--dimensional quantum gravity in the conformal gauge. We analyze the role played by…
