We establish analytic linearization of s-proper analytic groupoids around invariant submanifolds. We apply this result to show that any such groupoid admits a holomorphic extension.
The aim of this work is to establish the existence of invariant manifolds in complex systems. Considering trajectory curves integral of multiple time scales dynamical systems of dimension two and three (predator-prey models, neuronal…
We consider Euclidean path integrals with higher derivative actions, including those that depend quadratically on acceleration, velocity and position. Such path integrals arise naturally in the study of stiff polymers, membranes with…
We introduce the notion of Ricci-corrected differentiation in parabolic geometry, which is a modification of covariant differentiation with better transformation properties. This enables us to simplify the explicit formulae for standard…
We prove metric rigidity for complete manifolds supporting solutions of certain second order differential systems, thus extending classical works on a characterization of space-forms. In the route, we also discover new characterizations of…
A set of differential operators acting by continuous deformations on path dependent functionals of open and closed curves is introduced. Geometrically, these path operators are interpreted as infinitesimal generators of curves in the base…
We study finite-dimensional integrals in a way that elucidates the mathematical meaning behind the formal manipulations of path integrals occurring in quantum field theory. This involves a proper understanding of how Wick's theorem allows…
We embed the rough integration in a larger geometrical/algebraic framework of integrating one-forms against group-valued paths, and reduce the rough integral to an inhomogeneous analogue of the classical Young integral. We define dominated…
In the framework of path integral the evolution operator kernel for the Merton-Garman Hamiltonian is constructed. Based on this kernel option formula is obtained, which generalizes the well-known Black-Scholes result. Possible approximation…
We give a survey on higher invariants in noncommutative geometry and their applications to differential geometry and topology.
We obtain integral formulas for a metric-affine space equipped with two complementary orthogonal distributions. The integrand depends on the Ricci and mixed scalar curvatures and invariants of the second fundamental forms and integrability…
We introduce a variant of Farber's topological complexity, defined for smooth compact orientable Riemannian manifolds, which takes into account only motion planners with the lowest possible "average length" of the output paths. We prove…
We extend the classical Wick rotation to D-modules and higher codimensional submanifolds.
Automorphisms of finite order and real forms of "smooth" affine Kac-Moody algebras are studied, i.e. of 2-dimensional extensions of the algebra of smooth loops in a simple Lie algebra. It is shown that they can be parametrized by certain…
We introduce the notion of porous invariants for multipath (or branching/nondeterministic) affine loops over the integers; these invariants are not necessarily convex, and can in fact contain infinitely many 'holes'. Nevertheless, we show…
Does a conformal manifold imply the existence of exactly marginal operators? We answer this question affirmatively under the assumption that there exists a conformal interface with certain properties connecting nearby CFTs. We show that the…
We continue the approach in Part I \cite{duchong19} to study stationary states of controlled differential equations driven by rough paths, using the framework of random dynamical systems and random attractors. Part II deals with driving…
Integration over curved manifolds with higher codimension and, separately, discrete variants of continuous operators, have been two important, yet separate themes in harmonic analysis, discrete geometry and analytic number theory research.…
A branched rough path $X$ consists of a rough integral calculus for $X \colon [0, T] \to \mathbb R^d$ which may fail to satisfy integration by parts. Using Kelly's bracket extension [Kel12], we define a notion of pushforward of branched…
Using truncated variation techniques we obtain an improved version of the Loeve-Young inequality for the Riemann-Stieltjes integrals driven by rough paths. This allowed us to strenghten some result on the existence of solutions of integral…
