Motivated by obtaining a consistent mathematical description for the radiation reaction of point charged particles in linear classical electrodynamics, a theory of generalized higher order tensors and differential forms is introduced. The…
We develop a framework that systematically casts the solvability and uniqueness conditions of linearized geometric boundary-value problems into cohomological terms. The theory is designed to be applicable without assumptions on the…
Effects of geometric constraints on a steady flow potential are described by an elliptic-hyperbolic generalization of the harmonic map equations. Sufficient conditions are given for global triviality.
Systems of Newton equations of the form $\ddot{q}=-{1/2}A^{-1}(q)\nabla k$ with an integral of motion quadratic in velocities are studied. These equations generalize the potential case (when A=I, the identity matrix) and they admit a…
In this thesis we investigate how the nonlocalities affect the study of different PDEs coming from physics, and we analyze these equations under almost optimal assumptions of the nonlinearity. In particular, we focus on the fractional…
We find a principle of harmonic analyticity underlying the quaternionic (quaternion-K\"ahler) geometry and solve the differential constraints which define this geometry. To this end the original $4n$-dimensional quaternionic manifold is…
Harmonic morphisms, maps which preserve Laplace's equation, are intimately connected to the topic of minimal submanifolds. In this article we first characterise harmonic morphisms between Riemannian manifolds as the weakly horizontally…
We study the existence problem of harmonic maps with potential from $\mathbb{R}^2$ into $S^2$. For a specific class of potential functions on $S^2$, we give the sufficient and necessary conditions for the existence of equivariant solutions…
We give two new constructions of the harmonic algebra of a lattice polytope $P$, a bigraded algebra whose character is the $q$-Ehrhart series of $P$ defined by Reiner and Rhoades. First, we show that the harmonic algebra is the associated…
We introduce W-spin structures on a Riemann surface and give a precise definition to the corresponding W-spin equations for any quasi-homogeneous polynomial W. Then, we construct examples of nonzero solutions of spin equations in the…
Systems of equations are invariant under "polydimensional transformations" which reshuffle the geometry such that what is a line or a plane is dependent upon the frame of reference. This leads us to propose an extension of Clifford calculus…
In this paper we derive the symplectic framework for field theories defined by higher-order Lagrangians. The construction is based on the symplectic reduction of suitable spaces of iterated jets. The possibility of reducing a higher-order…

We study the structure and dynamics of the infinite sequence of extensions of the Poincar{\'e} algebra whose method of construction was described in a previous paper [1]. We give explicitly the Maurer-Cartan (MC) 1-forms of the extended Lie…
Symmetries and, in particular, Cartan (Noether) symmetries and conserved quantities (conservation laws) are studied for the multisymplectic formulation of first and second order Lagrangian classical field theories. Noether-type theorems are…
This paper aims at the most comprehensive and systematic construction and tabulation of mechanical systems that admit a second invariant, quadratic in velocities, other than the Hamiltonian. The configuration space is in general a 2D…
