A method is given to obtain the Green's function for the Poisson equation in any arbitrary integer dimension under periodic boundary conditions. We obtain recursion relations which relate the solution in d-dimensional space to that in…

Extension problems for polynomial valuations on different cones of convex functions are investigated. It is shown that for the classes of functions under consideration, the extension problem reduces to a simple geometric obstruction on the…
A classical set of birational invariants of a variety are its spaces of pluricanonical forms and some of their canonically defined subspaces. Each of these vector spaces admits a typical metric structure which is also birationally…

Four-dimensional N=2 superconformal field theories have families of protected correlation functions that possess the structure of two-dimensional chiral algebras. In this paper, we explore the chiral algebras that arise in this manner in…
When all Green's functions are known in a given gauge we may raise a question of whether it is possible or not to derive the corresponding ones in a different gauge. The answer is negative in QCD but affirmative in QED provided that we…
This is the third of a series of papers on a new equivariant cohomology that takes values in a vertex algebra, and contains and generalizes the classical equivariant cohomology of a manifold with a Lie group action a la H. Cartan. In this…
Hole and spin Green's functions of the two-dimensional t-J model of the Cu-O planes are calculated in an approximation which retains the rotation symmetry in the paramagnetic state and has no presumed magnetic ordering. In this…
Chiral symmetry breaking in QCD leads to the emergence of pions as Goldstone bosons. Their existence in turn affects the Green functions of the theory. Here we study the effect of pion corrections on the light quark's Green function in…
Starting from a manifestly Lorentz- and diffeomorphism-invariant classical action we perform a perturbative derivation of the gravitational anomalies for chiral bosons in 4n+2 dimensions. The manifest classical invariance is achieved using…
In the present work we discuss how to address the solution of electrostatic problems, in professional cycle, using Green's functions and the Poisson's equation. By using this procedure, it was possible to verify its relation with the method…
The dynamics of chiral p-forms can be captured by a lower-dimensional parity-violating action motivated by a Kaluza-Klein reduction on a circle. The massless modes are (p-1)-forms with standard kinetic terms and Chern-Simons couplings to…
We verify a conjecture proposed by X. Chen and Y. Shi, which arises from their study of the Green function on spheres in Euclidean space. More precisely, let $M\subset \mathbb{R}^3$ be a closed $C^{2}$ embedded surface and suppose that…
We developed a gauge-covariant formulation of the non-equilibrium Green function method for the dynamical and/or non-uniform electromagnetic field by means of the deformational quantization method. Such a formulation is realized by…
