The past decade has witnessed two important new developments in the study of linear series on algebraic varieties. First, vector bundles have emerged as powerful tools for analyzing linear series on curves and surfaces. More recently, the…
We introduce new generalizations of the Gamma and the Beta functions. Their properties are investigated and known results are obtained as particular cases.
These notes are an elementary introduction to supersymmetric quantum mechanics for students of mathematics. We start from the very basic concepts of quantum mechanics and proceed to construct a realization of Heisenberg's superalgebra as a…
In this paper, we investigate applications of the ordinary derivative operator, instead of the $q$-derivative operator, to the theory of $q$-series. As main results, many new summation and transformation formulas are established which are…
A combinatorial study of multiple $q$-integrals is developed. This includes a $q$-volume of a convex polytope, which depends upon the order of $q$-integration. A multiple $q$-integral over an order polytope of a poset is interpreted as a…
In this series of lectures directed towards a mainly mathematically oriented audience I try to motivate the use of operator algebra methods in quantum field theory. Therefore a title as ``why mathematicians are/should be interested in…
This is an overview of higher structural constructions in physics. The main motivations of our current attempt are as follows: (i) to provide a brief introduction to derived algebraic geometry, (ii) to understand how derived objects…
Hypergeometric functions and their generalizations play an important r\^{o}les in diverse applications. Many authors have been established generalizations of hypergeometric functions by a number ways. In this paper, we aim at establishing…
We prove, in a quantitative form, linear independence results for values of a certain class of q-series, which generalize classical q-hypergeometric series. These results refine our recent estimates.
We introduce a bilateral extension of the continuous $q$-ultraspherical polynomials which we call bilateral $q$-ultraspherical functions. These functions are given as specific bilateral basic hypergeometric ${}_2\psi_2$ series, they are…
The main purpose of this paper is to present closed integral form expressions for the Mathieu-type $\boldsymbol a$-series and its associated alternating version whose terms contain a $(p, q)$-extended Gauss' hypergeometric function. Certain…
If $k$ is set equal to $a q$ in the definition of a WP Bailey pair, \[ \beta_{n}(a,k) = \sum_{j=0}^{n} \frac{(k/a)_{n-j}(k)_{n+j}}{(q)_{n-j}(aq)_{n+j}}\alpha_{j}(a,k), \] this equation reduces to $\beta_{n}=\sum_{j=0}^{n}\alpha_{j}$. This…
This lecture consists of two sections. In section 1 we consider the simplest version of a q-deformed Heisenberg algebra as an example of a noncommutative structure. We first derive a calculus entirely based on the algebra and then formulate…
From two q-summation formulas we deduce certain series expansion formulas involving the q-gamma function. With these formulas we can give q-analogues of series expansions for certain constants.
In these self-contained low prerequisite introductory notes we first present (in part 1) basic concepts of set theory and algebra without explicit category theory. We then present (in part 2) basic category theory involving a somewhat…
The purpose of this text is to set up a few basic notions concerning quantum graphs, to indicate some areas addressed in the quantum graph research, and to provide some pointers to the literature. The pointers in many cases are secondary,…
In the present paper, we consider (p,q)-analogue of the Beta operators and using it, we propose the integral modification of the generalized Bernstein polynomials. We estimate some direct results on local and global approximation. Also, we…
This investigation pertains to the construction of a class of generalised deformed derivative operators which furnish the familiar finite difference and the q-derivatives as special cases. The procedure involves the introduction of a linear…
