In this paper, we revisit foundations of umbral calculus using a straightforward approach based on an explicit matrix realization of binomial convolution. We construct an umbral duality of Wronskian type for rational curves in echelon form,…
After introducing some motivations for this survey, we describe a formalism to parametrize a wide class of algebraic structures occurring naturally in various problems of topology, geometry and mathematical physics. This allows us to define…
We describe a method for constructing characters of combinatorial Hopf algebras by means of integrals over certain polyhedral cones. This is based on ideas from resurgence theory, in particular on the construction of well-behaved averages…
Cluster algebras are a class of commutative algebras whose generators are defined by a recursive process called mutation. We give a brief introduction to cluster algebras, and explain how discrete integrable systems can appear in the…
The theory of versal normal form has been playing a role in normal form since the introduction of the concept by V.I. Arnol'd. But there has been no systematic use of it that is in line with the semidirect character of the group of formal…
This is a paper in a series that studies smooth relative Lie algebra homologies and cohomologies based on the theory of formal manifolds and formal Lie groups. In two previous papers, we develop the basic theory of formal manifolds,…
We give a self-contained exposition of some mathematical aspects of the Mueller-Stokes formalism. In the first part we review some basic notions of linear algebra and establish a proper notation. In the second part we introduce the…
The theory of Topological Modular Forms suggests the existence of deformation invariants for two-dimensional supersymmetric field theories that are more refined than the standard elliptic genus. In this note we give a physical definition of…
This article provides a pedagogically oriented introduction to geometric (Clifford) calculus on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. Unlike usual approaches to the topic, which rely on embedding the geometric algebra either within a tensor algebra…
We construct a diffeomorphism invariant (Colombeau-type) differential algebra canonically containing the space of distributions in the sense of L. Schwartz. Employing differential calculus in infinite dimensional (convenient) vector spaces,…
A simple pedagogical introduction to the Colombeau algebra of generalised functions is presented, leading the standard definition.
The Dulac series are the asymptotic expansions of first return maps in a neighborhood of a hyperbolic polycycle. In this article, we consider two algebras and of power-log transseries (generalized series) which extend the algebra of Dulac…
The present notes are the expanded and polished version of three lectures given in Stanford, concerning the analytic and arithmetic properties of weight one modular forms. The author tried to write them in a style accessible to…
We discuss the history of the monodromy theorem, starting from Weierstra\ss, and the concept of monodromy group. From this viewpoint we compare then the Weierstra\ss , the Legendre and other normal forms for elliptic curves, explaining…
We explore the theory of illfounded and cyclic proofs for the propositional modal $\mu$-calculus. A fine analysis of provability for classical and intuitionistic modal logic provides a novel bridge between finitary, cyclic and illfounded…
In this paper we show how the theory of monads can be used to deduce in a uniform manner several duality theorems involving categories of relations on one side and categories of algebras with homomorphisms preserving only some operations on…
We decompose a matrix Y into a sum of bilinear terms in a stepwise manner, by considering Y as a mapping from a finite dimensional Banach space into another finite dimensional Banach space. We provide transition formulas, and represent them…
We introduce a simple extension of the $\lambda$-calculus with pairs---called the distributive $\lambda$-calculus---obtained by adding a computational interpretation of the valid distributivity isomorphism $A \Rightarrow (B\wedge C)\ \…
We study modules over the ring $\widetilde{\C}$ of complex generalized numbers from a topological point of view, introducing the notions of $\widetilde{\C}$-linear topology and locally convex $\widetilde{\C}$-linear topology. In this…
We present a method for the implicitization problem that goes back to the work of Sederberg and Chen. The formalism we use, with approximation complexes as a key ingredient, is due to Jean-Pierre Jouanolou and was explained in details in…
