We study the higher order Jacobi operator in pseudo-Riemannian geometry. We exhibit a family of manifolds so that this operator has constant Jordan normal form on the Grassmannian of subspaces of signature (r,s) for certain values of (r,s).…
A new class of vector fields enabling the integration of first-order ordinary differential equations (ODEs) is introduced. These vector fields are not, in general, Lie point symmetries. The results are based on a relation between…
A new family of $n$-dimensional solutions of the Jacobi identities is characterized. Such a family is very general, thus unifying in a common framework many different well-known Poisson systems seemingly unrelated. This unification is not…
We present a systematic treatment of line bundle geometry and Jacobi manifolds with an application to geometric mechanics that has not been noted in the literature. We precisely identify categories that generalise the ordinary categories of…
We give characterizations of affine transformations and affine vector fields in terms of the spray. By utilizing the Jacobi type equation that characterizes affine vector fields, we prove some rigidity theorems of affine vector fields on…
A map $f$ from the quaternion skew field $H$ to itself, can also be thought as a transformation $f:R^4 \to R^4$. In this manuscript, the Jacobian $J(f)$ of $f$ is computed, in the case where $f$ is a quaternion polynomial. As a consequence,…
Jackiw was undoubtedly the first to exhibit an example of a scalar field action which is not conformally invariant whereas its equation of motion is. This feature has recently been dubbed as a non-Noetherian conformal scalar field. The…
We define Jacobi forms of indefinite lattice index, and show that they are isomorphic to vector-valued modular forms also in this setting. We also consider several operations of the two types of objects, and obtain an interesting bilinear…
Various recent results on quantum L\'evy processes are presented. The first part provides an introduction to the theory of L\'evy processes on involutive bialgebras. The notion of independence used for these processes is tensor…
There are several types of Laplacians of a vector field on a Riemannian manifold. These include the Bochner and the Hodge Laplacian. The Gauss formula for the Levi-Civita connection relates the extrinsic connection to the intrinsic…
In curved spacetimes, the lack of criteria for the construction of a unique quantization is a fundamental problem undermining the significance of the predictions of quantum field theory. Inequivalent quantizations lead to different physics.…

The index Whittaker convolution operator, recently introduced by the authors, gives rise to a convolution measure algebra having the property that the convolution of probability measures is a probability measure. In this paper, we introduce…
We give the full representation theory of the gravitational extended corner symmetry group in two-dimensions. This includes projective representations, which correspond to representations of the quantum corner symmetry group. We find that…
The Hamilton--Jacobi formalism generalized to 2--dimensional field theories according to Lepage's canonical framework is applied to several covariant real scalar fields, e.g. massless and massive Klein--Gordon, Sine--Gordon, Liouville and…
We present a formal derivation of the key equations governing gravitational lensing in arbitrary space-times, starting from the basic properties of Jacobi fields and their expressions in terms of the exponential map. A careful analysis of…
We prove that the two-dimensional Gaussian Free Field describes the asymptotics of global fluctuations of a multilevel extension of the general beta Jacobi random matrix ensembles. Our approach is based on the connection of the Jacobi…
We study the composition of bivariate L\'evy process with bivariate inverse subordinator. The explicit expressions for its dispersion and auto correlation matrices are obtained. Also, the time-changed two parameter L\'evy processes with…
It is shown that a quantum L\'evy process in a box leads to a problem involving topological constraints in space, and its treatment in the framework of the path integral formalism with the L\'evy measure is suggested. The eigenvalue problem…
A compound Poisson process whose parameters are all unknown is observed at finitely many equispaced times. Nonparametric estimators of the jump and L\'evy distributions are proposed and functional central limit theorems using the uniform…
