We give a new construction of the holonomy and fundamental groupoids of a singular foliation. In contrast with the existing construction of Androulidakis and Skandalis, our method proceeds by taking a quotient of an infinite dimensional…

We prove a formula for a characteristic polynomial of an operator expressed as a polynomial of rank 1 operators. The formula uses a discrete analog of path integration and implies a generalization of the Forman-Kenyon's formula [4,6] for a…

Motivated by questions arising in financial mathematics, Dupire introduced a notion of smoothness for functionals of paths (different from the usual Fr\'echet--Gat\'eaux derivatives) and arrived at a generalization of It\=o's formula…

Semilinear maps are a generalization of linear maps between vector spaces where we allow the scalar action to be twisted by a ring homomorphism such as complex conjugation. In particular, this generalization unifies the concepts of linear…

We develop a path integrals approach for analyzing stationary light propagation appropriate for photonic crystals. The hermitian form of the stationary Maxwell equations is transformed into a quantum mechanical problem of a spin 1 particle…

The center of interest in this work are variational problems with integral functionals depending on special nonlocal gradients. The latter correspond to truncated versions of the Riesz fractional gradient, as introduced in [Bellido, Cueto &…

We introduce the notion of bilinear moment functional and study their general properties. The analogue of Favard's theorem for moment functionals is proven. The notion of semi-classical bilinear functionals is introduced as a generalization…

This note is an invitation to the theory of geometric functions. The foundation techniques and some of the developments in the field are explained with the mindset that the audience is principally young researchers wishing to understand…

Density functional theory (DFT) is an indispensable ab initio method in both quantum chemistry and condensed matter physics. Based on recent advancements in reduced density matrix functional theory (RDMFT), a variant of DFT that is believed…

We define a generalized vector partition function and derive an identity for generating series of such functions associated with solutions of basic recurrence relation of combinatorial analysis. As a consequence, we obtain the generating…

When one tries to take into account the non-trivial vacuum structure of Quantum Field Theory, the standard functional-integral tools such as generating functionals or transitional amplitudes, are often quite inadequate for such purposes.…

The decomposition of correlation functions into conformal blocks is an indispensable tool in conformal field theory. For spinning correlators, non-trivial tensor structures are needed to mediate between the conformal blocks, which are…

Using the integral representations of the solutions of Schr\"odinger equation, which are the essential ingredients of the Gel'fand-Levitan and Marchenko integral equations of inverse scattering theory, we obtain a general theorem on the…

Using the existence of infinite numbers $k$ in the non-Archimedean ring of Robinson-Colombeau, we define the hyperfinite Fourier transform (HFT) by considering integration extended to $[-k,k]^{n}$ instead of $(-\infty,\infty)^{n}$. In order…

We derive the effective theories for heavy particles with a functional integral approach by integrating away the states with high velocity and with high virtuality. This formulation is non-perturbative and has a close connection with the…

A new method is presented for obtaining indefinite integrals of common special functions. The approach is based on a Lagrangian formulation of the general homogeneous linear ordinary differential equation of second order. A general integral…

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…

In this work, we prove the existence of integrable solutions for the following generalized mixed-type nonlinear functional integral equation $$x(t)=g\left(t,(Tx)(t)\right)+f\left(t,\int_0^t…

We establish the functorial transfer of generic, automorphic representations from the quasi-split general spin groups to general linear groups over arbitrary number fields, completing an earlier project. Our results are definitive and, in…

Classical spectral theory provides powerful tools for analyzing linear operators, but does not extend naturally to nonlinear or compositional settings. In particular, there is no general way to transport spectral invariants in a functorial…
