In this note we prove that any integral closed k-form $φ^k$, $k\ge 3$, on a m-dimensional manifold $M^m$, $m \ge k$, is the restriction of a universal closed k-form $h^k$ on a universal manifold $U^{d(m,k)}$ as a result of an embedding of $M^m$ to $U^{d(m,k)}$.

In this article we give a totally new proof of the integral localization formula for equivariantly closed differential forms (Theorem 7.11 in [BGV]). We restate it here as Theorem 2. This localization formula is very well known, but the author hopes to adapt this proof to obtain a more general result in the future.

We present a path integral method to derive closed-form solutions for option prices in a stochastic volatility model. The method is explained in detail for the pricing of a plain vanilla option. The flexibility of our approach is demonstrated by extending the realm of closed-form option price formulas to the case where…

Naz and Chaudhry [3] established multiple closed-form solutions for the basic Lucas-Uzawa model. According to Boucekkine and Ruiz-Tamarit [1] and Chilarescu [2] unique closed-form solutions exist for the basic Lucas-Uzawa model. We equate expressions for variables h(t) and u(t). We provide here condition for the unique…

In a rigorous construction of the path integral for supersymmetric quantum mechanics on a Riemann manifold, based on Bär and Pfäffle's use of piecewise geodesic paths, the kernel of the time evolution operator is the heat kernel for the Laplacian on forms. The path integral is approximated by the integral of a form on …

We establish a new criterion for a compatible almost complex structure on a symplectic four-manifold to be integrable and hence Kähler. Our main theorem shows that the existence of three linearly independent closed J-anti-invariant two-forms implies the integrability of the almost complex structure. This proves the con…

Obstructions found for closed Fedosov star products on symplectic and Kähler manifolds.

Integrable flows on the Grassmannians Gr(N-1,N+1) are defined by the requirement of closedness of the differential N-1 forms $Ω_{N-1}$ of rank N-1 naturally associated with Gr(N-1,N+1). Gauge-invariant parts of these flows, given by the systems of the N-1 quasi-linear differential equations, describe coisotropic deform…

Let $(M,I,J,K)$ be a hyperkaehler manifold, $\dim_\R M =4n$. We study positive, Dolbeault-closed $(2p,0)$-forms on $(M,I)$. These forms are quaternionic analogues of the positive $(p,p)$-forms. We construct an injective homomorphism mapping Dolbeault-closed $(2p,0)$-forms to closed $(n+p,n+p)$-forms, and positive $(2p,…

We prove that Wilson loop expectation values for arbitrary simple closed contours obey an area law up to second order in perturbative two-dimensional Yang-Mills theory.

New method linearizes Darboux transformations of discrete curves.

We consider a vector field $X$ on a closed manifold which admits a Lyapunov one form. We assume $X$ has Morse type zeros, satisfies the Morse--Smale transversality condition and has non-degenerate closed trajectories only. For a closed one form $η$, considered as flat connection on the trivial line bundle, the differen…

Explicit formulas for the $G_2$-components of the Riemannian curvature tensor on a manifold with a $G_2$ structure are given in terms of Ricci contractions. We define a conformally invariant Ricci-type tensor that determines the 27-dimensional part of the Weyl tensor and show that its vanishing on compact $G_2$ manifol…

Novel Hilbert space Gaussian process improves sequential design accuracy and efficiency.

We construct a compact example of 7- dimensional manifold endowed with a weakly integrable generalized G_2-structure with respect to a closed and non trivial 3-form. Moreover, we investigate which type of SU(3)-structures on a 6-dimensional manifold N give rise to a strongly integrable generalized G_2-structure with re…

We prove a singular Darboux type theorem for homogeneous polynomial closed $2$-forms of degree one on $\mathbb{C}^n$. As application, we classify non-integrable codimension one distributions, of degree one, and arbitrary classes on projective spaces.

The classical integral localization formula for equivariantly closed forms (Theorem 7.11 in [BGV]) is well-known and requires the acting Lie group to be compact. It is restated here as Theorem 2. In this article we extend this result to NONcompact groups. The main result is Theorem 20. Then, using this generalization, …

For a $2$-dimensional non-flat spray we associate a Berwald frame and a $3$-dimensional distribution that we call the Berwald distribution. The Frobenius integrability of the Berwald distribution characterises the Finsler metrizability of the given spray. In the integrable case, the sought after Finsler function is pro…

We introduce a general setting for multidimensional dispersionless integrable hierarchy in terms of differential $m$-form $Ω_m$ with the coefficients satisfying the Plücker relations, which is gauge-invariantly closed and its gauge-invariant coordinates (ratios of coefficients) are (locally) holomorphic with respect to…

We show that every semialgebraic set admits a semialgebraic triangulation such that each closed simplex is $C^1$ differentiable. As an application, we give a straightforward definition of the integration $\int_X ω$ over a compact semialgebraic subset $X$ of a differential form $ω$ on an ambient algebraic manifold, that…

Let $M$ be a manifold with a closed, integral $(k+1)$-form $ω$, and let $G$ be a Fréchet-Lie group acting on $(M,ω)$. As a generalization of the Kostant-Souriau extension for symplectic manifolds, we consider a canonical class of central extensions of $\mathfrak{g}$ by $\mathbb{R}$, indexed by $H^{k-1}(M,\mathbb{R})^*$…

Let M denote a compact, oriented 3-manifold and let a denote a contact 1-form on M. This article proves that the vector field that generates the kernel of the 2-form da has at least one closed, integral curve.

Let M denote a compact, orientable, 3-dimensional manifold and let a denote a contact 1-form on M; thus the wedge product of a with da is nowhere zero. This article explains how the Seiberg-Witten Floer homology groups as defined for any given Spin-C structure on M give closed, integral curves of the vector field that …

The second fundamental form of Riemannian geometry is generalised to the case of a manifold with a linear connection and an integrable distribution. This bilinear form is generally not symmetric and its skew part is the torsion. The form itself is closely related to the shape map of the connection. The codimension one …

We investigate an equivariant generalization of Morse theory for a general class of integrable models. In particular, we derive equivariant versions of the classical Poincaré-Hopf and Gauss-Bonnet-Chern theorems and present the corresponding path integral generalizations. Our approach is based on equivariant cohomology…

In this paper we construct a Universal chain complex, counting zeros of closed 1-forms on a manifold. The Universal complex is a refinement of the well known Novikov complex; it relates the homotopy type of the manifold, after a suitable noncommutative localization, with the numbers of zeros of different indices which …
