These are notes for a Ph.D.\ course I held at SISSA, Trieste, in the Winter 2025. We review well-known topics in Riemannian geometry where Lie groups play a fundamental role. Part of the theory of compact connected Lie groups, their…
In these notes we review the material presented at the summer school on "Mathematical Physics, Analysis and Stochastics" held at the University of Heidelberg in July 2014. We consider the time-evolution of quantum systems and in particular…
We establish the full asymptotic for the discrete second moment of the Riemann zeta function of mixed derivatives evaluated at the zeta zeros, providing both unconditional and conditional error terms. This was first studied by Gonek, where…
Riemann's mathematical papers contain many ideas that arise from physics, and some of them are motivated by problems from physics. In fact, it is not easy to separate Riemann's ideas in mathematics from those in physics. Furthermore,…
We give an account of the complex Arithmetic-Geometric Mean (AGM), as first studied by Gauss, together with details of its relationship with the theory of elliptic curves over $\C$, their period lattices and complex parametrisation. As an…
This thesis is divided into three parts. In the first part, we give an introduction to J. Harrison's theory of differential chains. In the second part, we apply these tools to generalize the Cauchy theorems in complex analysis. Instead of…
This paper discusses and summarizes some results on complex variables that are very useful in fractional-order systems analysis and design, specifically when the system is analyzed in the frequency domain. The author hopes that this…
Richard P. Feynman's work on gravitation, as can be inferred from several published and unpublished sources, is reviewed. Feynman was involved with this subject at least from late 1954 to the late 1960s, giving several pivotal contributions…
Presents a history of the evolution of the author's ideas on program-size complexity and its applications to metamathematics over the course of more than four decades. Includes suggestions for further work.
We associate to each covering map of simple Lie groups a sequence of integers, called the multi-degree of the covering; extend Schubert calculus to evaluate the invariant; and apply the results to solve two outstanding topological problems…
A class of elliptic-hyperbolic equations is placed in the context of a geometric variational theory, in which the change of type is viewed as a change in the character of an underlying metric. A fundamental example of a metric which changes…
This doctoral dissertation presents an in-depth analysis of the first six chapters of Eddington's Fundamental Theory, sometimes referred to as his 'statistical' theory, in the context of discoveries and advancements made since its original…
A case for the teaching of classical thermodynamics with an explicit time variable, with phenomena involving changes in time, is made by presenting and solving a exercise in textbook style, and pointing out that a solution accords with…
These are lecture notes based on the first part of a course on 'Mathematical Data Science', which I taught to final year BSc students in the UK in 2019-2020. Topics include: concentration of measure in high dimensions; Gaussian random…
In these informal lecture notes we outline different approaches used in doing calculations involving the Dirac equation in curved spacetime. We have tried to clarify the subject by carefully pointing out the various conventions used and by…
Church's simple type theory is often deemed too simple for elaborate mathematical constructions. In particular, doubts were raised whether schemes could be formalized in this setting and a challenge was issued. Schemes are sophisticated…
In this series of seven papers, predominantly by means of elementary analysis, we establish a number of identities related to the Riemann zeta function. Whilst this paper is mainly expository, some of the formulae reported in it are…
Euclidean functions with values in an arbitrary well-ordered set were first considered in a 1949 work of Motzkin and studied in more detail in work of Fletcher, Samuel and Nagata in the 1970's and 1980's. Here these results are revisited,…
We analyse a collection of twisted mixed moments of the Riemann zeta function and establish the validity of asymptotic formulae comprising on some instances secondary terms of the shape $P(\log T) T^{C}$ for a suitable constant $C<1$ and a…
We suggest a new scenario of gravitation in which gravity at the fundamental level is described by a Riemannian (i.e. locally Euclidean) theory without the notion of time. The Lorentzian metric structure and the notion of time emerge as…
