This is the fifth in a series of papers where we prove a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer regarding the algebraic structure of ``global conformal invariants''; these are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars.…

This is the first of two papers where we address and partially confirm a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer, originally postulated in high energy physics. The objects of study are scalar Riemannian quantities constructed out of the curvature…
This paper is a continuation of [2], where we complete our partial proof of the Deser-Schwimmer conjecture on the structure of ``global conformal invariants''. Our theorem deals with such invariants P(g^n) that locally depend only on the…
The goal of the present paper is to investigate the algebraic structure of global conformal invariants of submanifolds. These are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars of the tangent and normal bundle. A famous…
We develop methods for constructing and computing conformal invariants of submanifolds, with a particular emphasis on conformal submanifold scalars and conformally invariant integrals of natural submanifold scalars. These methods include a…
We provide the full classification, in arbitrary even and odd dimensions, of global conformal invariants, i.e., scalar densities in the spacetime metric and its derivatives that are invariant, possibly up to a total derivative, under local…
It is known that some cosmological perturbations are conformal invariant. This facilitates the studies of perturbations within some gravitational theories alternative to general relativity, for example the scalar-tensor theory, because it…
We consider generalized gradients in the general context of $G$-structures. They are natural first order differential operators acting on sections of vector bundles associated to irreducible $G$-representations. We study their geometric…
This paper is part of a series of articles on noncommutative geometry and conformal geometry. In this paper, we reformulate the local index formula in conformal geometry in such a way to take into account of the action of conformal…
We study numerical computation of conformal invariants of domains in the complex plane. In particular, we provide an algorithm for computing the conformal capacity of a condenser. The algorithm applies for wide kind of geometries: domains…
We show that, for both the conformal and projective groups, all the differential invariants of a generic surface in three-dimensional space can be written as combinations of the invariant derivatives of a single differential invariant. The…
This paper contains a proof of a conjecture of Breuil and Schneider, on the existence of an invariant norm on any locally algebraic representation of $\GL(n)$, with integral central character, whose smooth part is given by a generalized…
The main results on the theory of conformal and almost Grassmann structures are presented. The common properties of these structures and also the differences between them are outlined. In particular, the structure groups of these structures…
An enumerative invariant theory in Algebraic Geometry, Differential Geometry, or Representation Theory, is the study of invariants which 'count' $\tau$-(semi)stable objects $E$ with fixed topological invariants $[E]=\alpha$ in some…
We prove a structure theorem for the Gromov-Witten invariants of compact Kahler surfaces with geometric genus $p_g>0$. Under the technical assumption that there is a canonical divisor that is a disjoint union of smooth components, the…
We study a global invariant for path structures. The invariant is obtained as a secondary invariant from a Cartan connection on a canonical bundle associated to a path structure. It is computed in examples which are defined in terms of…
