Extends field theory foundations to infinitesimal spaces, simplifying complex concepts.

problem Develop rigorous foundations for field theory, especially for infinitesimal spaces.
method Formulates local Lagrangian field theory in a new category of thickened smooth sets.
result Establishes a firm foundation for field theory, including tangent bundles and perturbative considerations.

This paper is devoted to the development and applications of some (new) basic concepts in Lie theory, both from `computational" and "observability" viewpoint. We specify set of all "G-equivariant" maps from a given Lie group G to the underlying manifold M, namely GG-set, and also we introduce "conjugacy" in Lie group …

In anomaly-free quantum field theories the integrand in the bosonic functional integral--the exponential of the effective action after integrating out fermions--is often defined only up to a phase without an additional choice. We term this choice ``setting the quantum integrand''. In the low-energy approximation to M-t…

This paper refines homotopy theory for cubical sets and uniform spaces.

problem Classical homotopy theory limitations in cubical sets and uniform spaces.
method Develops a uniform-theoretic refinement for cubical sets and uniform spaces, lifting to a full and faithful embedding.
result Lifts classical homotopy categories to new uniform homotopy categories, generalizing cohomology theories.

The purpose of this paper is to outline a simple set of axioms for basic set theory from which most fundamental facts can be derived. The key to the whole project is a new axiom of set theory which I dubbed "The Law of Extremes". It allows for quick proofs of basic set-theoretic identities and logical tautologies, so i…

We extend profound results in pluripotential theory on Kahler manifolds to Sasaki setting via its transverse Kahler structure. As in Kahler case, these results form a very important piece to solve the existence of Sasaki metrics with constant scalar curvature (cscs) in terms of properness of K-energy. One main result i…

We extend the Nielsen theory of coincidence sets to equalizer sets, the points where a given set of (more than 2) mappings agree. On manifolds, this theory is interesting only for maps between spaces of different dimension, and our results hold for sets of k maps on compact manifolds from dimension (k-1)n to dimension …

Extends Morse-Forman theory to vector-valued functions for multiparameter persistence.

problem Computing multiparameter persistence with new tools and methods.
method Adapting Forman's theory to vectorial setting and using combinatorial topological dynamics.
result Established more general result for sublevel sets and found a way to induce Morse decomposition.

Lectures on topological field theories and differential cohomology.

problem Exploring topological field theories and their connections to differential cohomology.
method Introduction to topological field theory and generalized Abelian gauge theories.
result Explains the relationship between topological field theories and differential cohomology.

A new geometrical setting for classical field theories is introduced. This description is strongly inspired in the one due to Skinner and Rusk for singular lagrangians systems. For a singular field theory a constraint algorithm is developed that gives a final constraint submanifold where a well-defined dynamics exists.…

In this paper we develop a Hamilton-Jacobi theory in the setting of almost Poisson manifolds. The theory extends the classical Hamilton-Jacobi theory and can be also applied to very general situations including nonholonomic mechanical systems and time dependent systems with external forces.

The paper uses MDM theory to analyze multifiltering functions on simplicial complexes.

problem Understanding multifiltering functions through discrete Morse theory.
method Applying multiparameter discrete Morse theory to vector-valued multifiltering functions.
result Any multifiltering function can be approximated by a compatible MDM function.

This is an expository introduction to simplicial sets and simplicial homotopy theory with particular focus on relating the combinatorial aspects of the theory to their geometric/topological origins. It is intended to be accessible to students familiar with just the fundamentals of algebraic topology.

Study on homeomorphism groups of manifolds using set theory.

problem Relationship between set theory and homeomorphism groups of manifolds.
method First-order rigidity, type versus conjugacy, axiom of constructibility, projective determinacy.
result Under V=L, homeomorphism groups of manifolds are first-order rigid and conjugacy class is determined by type.

problem Determine minimal generating sets of oriented singular Reidemeister moves.
method Introduced new invariant for singular links to detect type IV moves and provide obstructions.
result Proved exactly 96 distinct inclusion-minimal generating sets for singular moves.

We prove that Chern-Weil forms are the only natural differential forms associated to a connection on a principal G-bundle. We use the homotopy theory of simplicial sheaves on smooth manifolds to formulate the theorem and set up the proof. Other arguments come from classical invariant theory. We identify the Weil algebr…

A families index theorem in K-theory is given for the setting of Atiyah, Patodi and Singer of a family of Dirac operators with spectral boundary condition. This result is deduced from such a K-theory index theorem for the calculus of cusp, or more generally fibred cusp, pseudodifferential operators on the fibres (with …

Following the analogies between 3-dimensional topology and number theory, we study an idèlic form of class field theory for 3-manifolds. For a certain set K\mathcal{K} of knots in a 3-manifold MM, we first present a local theory for each knot in K\mathcal{K}, which is analogous to local class field theory, and then,…

We introduce a new geometric evolution equation for hypersurfaces in asymptotically flat spacetime initial data sets, that unites the theory of marginally outer trapped surfaces (MOTS) with the study of inverse mean curvature flow in asymptotically flat Riemannian manifolds. A theory of weak solutions is developed usin…

We extend Lusternik-Schnirelmann theory to pairs (f,φ)(f, φ), where φφ is a homotopy equivalence of a space XX, ff is a function on XX which decreases along φφ and (f,φ)(f, φ) satisfies a discrete analog of the Palais-Smale condition. The theory is carried out in an equivariant setting.
