The characteristic map for the symmetric group is an isomorphism relating the representation theory of the symmetric group to symmetric functions. An analogous isomorphism is constructed for the symmetric space of symplectic forms over a…
Let $f:\mathbb{T}\to\mathbb{R}$ be a Morse function of class $C^2$ with exactly two critical points, let $\omega\in\mathbb{T}$ be Diophantine, and let $\lambda>0$ be sufficiently large (depending on $f$ and $\omega$). For any value of the…
A canonical quantization scheme applied to a classical supersymmetric system with quadratic in momentum supercharges gives rise to a quantum anomaly problem described by a specific term to be quadratic in Planck constant. We reveal a close…
Let $X$ be a Shimura curve of genus zero. In this paper, we first characterize the spaces of automorphic forms on $X$ in terms of Schwarzian differential equations. We then devise a method to compute Hecke operators on these spaces. An…
For an arbitrary negative Schwarzian unimodal map with non-flat critical point, we establish the level-2 Large Deviation Principle (LDP) for empirical distributions. We also give an example of a multimodal map for which the level-2 LDP does…
A shift-periodic map is a one-dimensional map from the real line to itself which is periodic up to a linear translation and allowed to have singularities. It is shown that iterative sequences $x_{n+1}=F(x_n)$ generated by such maps display…
Grid-based discretizations of the time dependent Schr\"odinger equation coupled to an external magnetic field are converted to manifest gauge invariant discretizations. This is done using generalizations of ideas used in classical lattice…
We show that the additive higher Chow groups of regular schemes over a field induce a Zariski sheaf of pro-differential graded algebras, whose Milnor range is isomorphic to the Zariski sheaf of big de Rham-Witt complexes. This provides an…
We examine the relationships between the differential invariants of objects and of their images under a surjective map. We analyze both the case when the underlying transformation group is projectable and hence induces an action on the…
In the process of constructing invariant difference schemes which approximate partial differential equations we write down a procedure for discretizing an arbitrary partial differential equation on an arbitrary lattice. An open problem is…
We study conformal mappings from the unit disk to one-toothed gear-shaped planar domains from the point of view of the Schwarzian derivative. Gear-shaped (or "gearlike") domains fit into a more general category of domains we call "pregears"…
Differential calculus on Euclidean spaces has many generalisations. In particular, on a set $X$, a diffeological structure is given by maps from open subsets of Euclidean spaces to $X$, a differential structure is given by maps from $X$ to…
We consider a class of step skew product systems of interval diffeomorphisms over shift operators, as a means to study random compositions of interval diffeomorphisms. The class is chosen to present in a simplified setting intriguing…
We show that non-linear Schwarzian differential equations emerging from covariance symmetry conditions imposed on linear differential operators with hypergeometric function solutions, can be generalized to arbitrary order linear…
Schlesinger transformations are algebraic transformations of a Fuchsian system that preserve its monodromy representation and act on the characteristic indices of the system by integral shifts. One of the important reasons to study such…
In skew-product systems with contractive factors, all orbits asymptotically approach the graph of the so-called sync function; hence, the corresponding regularity properties primarily matter. In the literature, sync function Lipschitz…
We study the dynamics of piecewise conformal maps in the Riemann sphere. The normality and chaotic regions are defined and we state several results and properties of these sets. We show that the stability of these piecewise maps is related…
We study the asymptotical behaviour of iterates of piecewise contractive maps of the interval. It is known that Poincar\'e first return maps induced by some Cherry flows on transverse intervals are, up to topological conjugacy, piecewise…
We study the projective derivative as a cocycle of M\"obius transformations over groups of circle diffeomorphisms. By computing precise expressions for this cocycle, we obtain several results about reducibility and almost reducibility to a…
For two-parameter families of dissipative twist maps, we investigate the dynamics of invariant graphs as well as the thresholds for their existence and breakdown. Our main results are as follows: (1) For arbitrarily small $C^r$…
