By means of an analogy with Classical Mechanics and Geometrical Optics, we are able to reduce Lagrangians to a kinetic term only.

Using properties of the determinant line bundle for a family of elliptic boundary value problems, we explain how the Fock space functor defines an axiomatic quantum field theory which formally models the Fermionic path integral. The 'sewing axiom' of the theory arises as an algebraic pasting law for the determinant of …

We prove that, in dimensions greater than 2, the generic metric is not a Hessian metric and find a curvature condition on Hessian metrics in dimensions greater than 3. In particular we prove that the forms used to define the Pontryagin classes in terms of the curvature vanish on a Hessian manifold. By contrast all anal…
