Building on the Utiyama principle we formulate an approach to Lagrangian field theory in which exterior covariant differentials of vector-valued forms replace partial derivatives, in the sense that they take up the role played by the latter…
We give an upper bound on the topological complexity of varieties $\mathcal{V}$ obtained as complements in $\mathbb{C}^m$ of the zero locus of a polynomial. As an application, we determine the topological complexity of unordered…
