A projective geometry is an equivalence class of torsion free connections sharing the same unparametrised geodesics; this is a basic structure for understanding physical systems. Metric projective geometry is concerned with the interaction…
The main purpose of this paper is a mathematical construction of a non-perturbative deformation of a two-dimensional conformal field theory. We introduce a notion of a full vertex algebra which formulates a compact two-dimensional conformal…
We clarify the conformal invariance of the Pontrjagin forms by giving them a manifestly conformally invariant construction; they are shown to be the Pontrjagin forms of the conformally invariant tractor connection. The Q-curvature is…
The localization tensor is a measure of distinguishability between insulators and metals. This tensor is related to the quantum metric tensor associated with the occupied bands in momentum space. In two dimensions and in the thermodynamic…
Let $(M^4,g)$ be a smooth, closed, oriented anti-self-dual (ASD) four-manifold. $(M^4,g)$ is said to be unobstructed if the cokernel of the linearization of the self-dual Weyl tensor is trivial. This condition can also be characterized as…
On a (pseudo-) Riemannian manifold of dimension n > 2, the space of tensors which transform covariantly under Weyl rescalings of the metric is built. This construction is related to a Weyl-covariant operator D whose commutator [D,D] gives…

A closed 1-form $\Theta$ on a manifold induces a perturbation $d_\Theta$ of the de~Rham complex. This perturbation was originally introduced Witten for exact $\Theta$, and later extended by Novikov to the case of arbitrary closed $\Theta$.…
A method to construct interior axially symmetric metrics that appropriately match with any vacuum solution of the Weyl family is developed in Hernandez-Pastora etal. (Class Quantum Gravity 33:235005, 2016). It was shown,for the case of some…
We study differential complexes of Kolmogorov-Alexander-Spanier type on metric measure spaces associated with unbounded non-local operators, such as operators of fractional Laplacian type. We define Hilbert complexes, observe invariance…
We compute the trace, diffeomorphism and Lorentz anomalies of a free Weyl fermion in a gravitational background field by path integral methods. This is achieved by regularising the variation of the determinant of the Weyl operator building…
