We consider the lagrangian $L=F(R)$ in classical (=non-quantized) two-dimensional fourth-order gravity and give new relations to Einstein's theory with a non-minimally coupled scalar field. We distinguish between scale-invariant lagrangians…

Let $I\subset (0,\infty )$ be an interval that is closed with respect to the multiplication. The operations $C_{f,g}\colon I^{2}\rightarrow I$ of the form \begin{equation*} C_{f,g}\left( x,y\right) =\left( f\circ g\right) ^{-1}\left(…

We characterize Carnot groups admitting a 1-quasiconformal metric inversion as the Lie groups of Heisenberg type whose Lie algebras satisfy the $J^2$-condition, thus characterizing a special case of inversion invariant bi-Lipschitz…

The suspicion that the existence of a minimal uncertainty in position measurements violates Lorentz invariance seems unfounded. It is shown that the existence of such a nonzero minimal uncertainty in position is not only consistent with…

In fuzzy group theory many versions of the well-known Lagrange's theorem have been studied. The aim of this article is to investigate the converse of one of those results. This leads to an interesting characterization of finite cyclic…

Graded Lagrangian formalism in terms of a Grassmann-graded variational bicomplex on graded manifolds is developed in a very general setting. This formalism provides the comprehensive description of reducible degenerate Lagrangian systems,…

This is my PhD thesis supervised by Professor Jerzy Weyman. A symmetric quiver $(Q,\sigma)$ is a finite quiver without oriented cycles $Q=(Q_0,Q_1)$ equipped with a contravariant involution $\sigma$ on $Q_0\sqcup Q_1$. The involution allows…

On groups of symplectomorphisms of the disk, we construct two homogeneous quasi-morphisms which relate to the Calabi invariant and the flux homomorphism respectively. We also show the relation between the quasi-morphisms and the translation…

In a previous paper the author constructed biinvariant measures (possibly having values in a line bundle) for a loop group LK (with compact simply connected K) acting on the formal completion of its complexification LG. One motivation for…

Computations in small Coxeter groups or dihedral groups suggest that the partition into Kazhdan-Lusztig cells with unequal parameters should obey to some semicontinuity phenomenon (as the parameters vary). The aim of this paper is to…

We study different notions of quasiconvexity for a subgroup $H$ of a relatively hyperbolic group $G.$ The first result establishes equivalent conditions for $H$ to be relatively quasiconvex. As a corollary we obtain that the relative…

A decomposition of the Wiener measure based on its quasi-invariance under the group of diffeo- morphisms is proposed. As a result, functional integrals in the Schwarzian theory can be written as the Fourier transform of the integrals in a…

We present a variation of quasi-isometry to approach the problem of defining a geometric notion equivalent to commensurability. In short, this variation can be summarized as "quasi-isometry with uniform parameters for a large enough family…

The particle algebras generated by the creation/annihilation operators for bosons and for fermions are shown to possess quantum invariance groups. These structures and their sub(quantum)groups are investigated.

Given an exact symplectic manifold M and a support Lagrangian \Lambda, we construct an infinity-category Lag, which we conjecture to be equivalent (after specialization of the coefficients) to the partially wrapped Fukaya category of M…

The application of the notion of `observable' from gauge theory to diffeomorphism-invariant theories -- most relevantly to general relativity -- has led to numerous conceptual and technical issues when interpreting classical theories with…

A bijection $f$ of a loop $L$ is a half-automorphism if $f(xy)\in \{f(x)f(y),f(y)f(x)\}$, for any $x,y\in L$. A half-automorphism is nontrivial when it is neither an automorphism nor an anti-automorphism. A Chein loop $L=G\cup Gu$ is a…

We prove several results on symplectic varieties with a Hamiltonian action of a reductive group having invariant Lagrangian subvarieties. Our main result states that the images of the moment maps of a Hamiltonian variety and of the…

We develop the theory of quasi--invariant (resp. strongly quasi--invariant) states under the action of a group $G$ of normal $*$--automorphisms of a $*$--algebra (or von Neumann alegbra) $\mathcal{A}$. We prove that these states are…

We examine the variational and conformal structures of higher order theories of gravity which are derived from a metric-connection Lagrangian that is an arbitrary function of the curvature invariants. We show that the constrained first…
