We first extend the Peierls algebra of gauge invariant functions from the space ${\cal S}$ of classical solutions to the space ${\cal H}$ of histories used in path integration and some studies of decoherence. We then show that it may be…
Given a principal G-bundle over a smooth manifold M, with G a compact Lie group, and given a finite-dimensional unitary representation of G, one may define an algebra of functions on the space of connections modulo gauge transformations,…
A topological description of various generalized function algebras over corresponding basic locally convex algebras is given. The framework consists of algebras of sequences with appropriate ultra(pseudo)metrics defined by sequences of…
An explicit calculation is carried out to show that the distributional curvature of a 2-cone, calculated by Clarke et al. (1996), using Colombeau's new generalised functions is invariant under non-linear $C^\infty$ coordinate…
The coordinate invariant theory of generalised functions of Colombeau and Meril is reviewed and extended to enable the construction of multi-index generalised tensor functions whose transformation laws coincide with their counterparts in…
We extend the construction of [19] by introducing spaces of generalized tensor fields on smooth manifolds that possess optimal embedding and consistency properties with spaces of tensor distributions in the sense of L. Schwartz. We thereby…
A function is differentially algebraic (or simply D-algebraic) if there is a polynomial relationship between some of its derivatives and the indeterminate variable. Many functions in the sciences, such as Mathieu functions, the Weierstrass…
Given an abelian category and a stability condition satisfying appropriate conditions, we define generalized $K$-theoretic invariants and prove that they satisfy wall-crossing formulas. For this, we introduce a new associative algebra…
Let $\bar{\Kset}_f$ denote the commutative unital ring of Colombeau's full generalized numbers. This ring can be endowed with an ultra-metric in such a way that it becomes a topological ring. There are many interesting question about…
We construct generalised diffeomorphisms for E$_9$ exceptional field theory. The transformations, which like in the E$_8$ case contain constrained local transformations, close when acting on fields. This is the first example of a…
Integral calculus on the space of gauge equivalent connections is developed. Loops, knots, links and graphs feature prominently in this description. The framework is well--suited for quantization of diffeomorphism invariant theories of…
We introduce and develop a structure theory of a new class of noncommutative rings - Galois orders, that generalize classical orders in noncommutative rings. Galois orders realized as certain subrings of invariants in skew semigroup rings.…
Recently the space-time foam differential algebras of generalized functions with dense singularities were introduced, motivated by the so called space-time foam structures in General Relativity with dense singularities, and by Quantum…
This work introduces the class of generalized linear-quadratic functions, constructed using maximally monotone symmetric linear relations. Calculus rules and properties of the Moreau envelope for this class of functions are developed. In…
The Weyl algebra A of continuous functions and exponentiated fluxes, introduced by Ashtekar, Lewandowski and others, in quantum geometry is studied. It is shown that, in the piecewise analytic category, every regular representation of A…
Generalised diffeomorphisms in double field theory rely on an O(d,d) structure defined on tangent space. We show that any (pseudo-)Riemannian metric on the doubled space defines such a structure, in the sense that the generalised…
Extending the construction of the (intrinsically defined) full algebra of scalar valued Colombeau functions on a smooth manifold M (Grosser et al., Adv. Math. 166 (2002), 179-206) we present a suitable basic space for eventually obtaining…
We construct by geometric methods a noncommutative model E of the algebra of regular functions on the universal (2-fold) cover M of certain nilpotent coadjoint orbits O for a complex simple Lie algebra g. Here O is the dense orbit in the…
The fully matricial generalization in part I, of the difference quotient derivation on holomorphic functions, in which ${\mathbb C}$ is replaced by a Banach algebra $B$, is extended from the affine case to a Grassmannian completion. The…
In distribution theory the pullback of a general distribution by a $C^{\infty}$-function is well-defined whenever the normal bundle of the $C^{\infty}$-function does not intersect the wavefront set of the distribution. However, the…
