This article contributes to the relative BGG-machinery for parabolic geometries. Starting from a relative tractor bundle, this machinery constructs a sequence of differential operators that are naturally associated to the geometry in…

BGG-operators form sequences of invariant differential operators and the first of these is overdetermined. Interesting equations in conformal geometry described by these operators are those for Einstein scales, conformal Killing forms and…

We study the half-sided translations associated to Rindler wedge algebras for conformal field theories in 1+1 Minkowski spacetime, generated by an unbounded operator $\mathcal{G}$, in terms of bilinear forms $G, G'$ made from entanglement…

A gauge theory with 4 physical dimensions can be consistently expressed as a renormalizable topological quantum field theory in 5 dimensions. We extend the symmetries in the 5-dimensional framework to include not only a topological BRST…

In this paper, an overview is presented of the recent construction of fully back-reacted half-BPS solutions in 11-dimensional supergravity which correspond to near-horizon geometries of M2 branes ending on, or intersecting with, M5 and…

We determine a basis of dimension-7 operators which arise at O($a$) in the Symanzik expansion of the $\Delta B=2$ operators with static heavy quarks. We consider both Wilson-like and Ginsparg-Wilson light quarks. Exact chiral symmetry…

BGG resolutions and generalized BGG resolutions from representation theory of semisimple Lie algebras have been generalized to sequences of invariant differential operators on manifolds endowed with a geometric structure belonging to the…

We develop a framework for constructing superconformal blocks for correlators of general supermultiplets in theories with $\mathrm{SU}(m,m|2n)$ symmetry, such as four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ and $\mathcal{N} = 4$ conformal theories. We…

We study five dimensional geometries associated with the 5-dimensional irreducible representation of GL(2,R). These are special Weyl geometries in signature (3,2) having the structure group reduced from CO(3,2) to GL(2,R). The reduction is…

In this paper we introduce a generalized Sobolev space by defining a semi-inner product formulated in terms of a vector distributional operator $\mathbf{P}$ consisting of finitely or countably many distributional operators $P_n$, which are…

Given a maximally non-integrable 2-distribution ${\mathcal D}$ on a 5-manifold $M$, it was discovered by P. Nurowski that one can naturally associate a conformal structure $[g]_{\mathcal D}$ of signature (2,3) on $M$. We show that those…

This paper analyses the parabolic geometries generated by a free $n$-distribution in the tangent space of a manifold. It shows that certain holonomy reductions of the associated normal Tractor connections, imply preferred connections with…

We propose an organizing principle for classifying and constructing Schrodinger-invariant solutions within string theory and M-theory, based on the idea that such solutions represent nonlinear completions of linearized vector and graviton…

For any 4D split-signature conformal structure, there is an induced twistor distribution on the 5D space of all self-dual totally null 2-planes, which is $(2,3,5)$ when the conformal structure is not anti-self-dual. Several examples where…

We study a family of higher-derivative conformal operators $P_{2k}^{(2)}$ acting on transverse-traceless symmetric 2-tensors on generic Einstein spaces. They are a natural generalization of the well-known construction for scalars. We first…

Let \chi be a character on a discrete subgroup \Gamma of rank one of the additive group (C,+). We construct a complete orthonormal basis of the Hilbert space of (L^2,\Gamma,\chi)-theta functions. Furthermore, we show that it possesses a…

We study one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators defined as closed operators that are exactly solvable in terms of the Gauss hypergeometric function. We allow the potentials to be complex. These operators fall into three groups. The first…

Paraconformal or $GL(2)$ geometry on an $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ is defined by a field of rational normal curves of degree $n-1$ in the projectivised cotangent bundle $\mathbb{P} T^*M$. Such geometry is known to arise on solution spaces…

We reconsider dimension-five proton decay operators, making semi-quantitative remarks which apply to a large class of supersymmetric GUTs in which the short-distance operators are correlated with the fermion Yukawa couplings. In these GUTs,…

We establish a direct connection between two fundamental topics: one in probability theory and one in quantum field theory. The first topic is the problem of pointwise multiplication of random Schwartz distributions which has been the…
