Conformal curvatures of curves in

2001

Abstract We define a complete set of conformal invariants for pairs of spheres in and obtain from these the expressions of the conformal curvatures of curves in (n + 1)-space in terms of the Euclidean invariants.

Generalized Hausdorff dimension distortion in Euclidean spaces under Sobolev mappings

2010

Abstract We investigate how the integrability of the derivatives of Orlicz–Sobolev mappings defined on open subsets of R n affect the sizes of the images of sets of Hausdorff dimension less than n. We measure the sizes of the image sets in terms of generalized Hausdorff measures.

Rigidity of quasi-isometries for symmetric spaces and Euclidean buildings

1997

Abstract We study quasi-isometries between products of symmetric spaces and Euclidean buildings. The main results are that quasi-isometries preserve the product structure, and that in the irreducible higher rank case, quasi-isometries are at finite distance from homotheties.

On the role of symmetry in solving maximum lifetime problem in two-dimensional sensor networks

2016

We analyze a continuous and discrete symmetries of the maximum lifetime problem in two dimensional sensor networks. We show, how a symmetry of the network and invariance of the problem under a given transformation group $G$ can be utilized to simplify its solution. We prove, that for a $G$-invariant maximum lifetime problem there exists a $G$-invariant solution. Constrains which follow from the $G$-invariance allow to reduce the problem and its solution to a subset, an optimal fundamental region of the sensor network. We analyze in detail solutions of the maximum lifetime problem invariant under a group of isometry transformations of a two dimensional Euclidean plane.

Lorentz-covariant coordinate-space representation of the leading hadronic contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon

2017

We present a Lorentz-covariant, Euclidean coordinate-space expression for the hadronic vacuum polarisation, the Adler function and the leading hadronic contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. The representation offers a lot of flexibility for an implementation in lattice QCD. We expect it to be particularly helpful for the quark-line disconnected contributions.

Euclidean random matrix theory: low-frequency non-analyticities and Rayleigh scattering

2011

By calculating all terms of the high-density expansion of the euclidean random matrix theory (up to second-order in the inverse density) for the vibrational spectrum of a topologically disordered system we show that the low-frequency behavior of the self energy is given by $\Sigma(k,z)\propto k^2z^{d/2}$ and not $\Sigma(k,z)\propto k^2z^{(d-2)/2}$, as claimed previously. This implies the presence of Rayleigh scattering and long-time tails of the velocity autocorrelation function of the analogous diffusion problem of the form $Z(t)\propto t^{(d+2)/2}$.

A simple microsuperspace model in 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions

1992

Abstract We quantize the closed Friedmann model in 2 + 1 spacetime dimensions using euclidean path-integral approach and a simple microsuperspace model. A relationship between integration measure and operator ordering in the Wheeler-DeWitt equation is found within our model. Solutions to the Wheeler-DeWitt equation are exactly reproduced from the path integral using suitable integration contours in the complex plane.

Unitarity of Minkowski nonlocal theories made explicit

2021

In this work we explicitly show that the perturbative unitarity of analytic infinite derivative (AID) scalar field theories can be achieved using a modified prescription for computing scattering amplitudes. The crux of the new prescription is the analytic continuation of a result obtained in the Euclidean signature to the Minkowski external momenta. We intensively elaborate an example of a non-local $\phi^4$ model for various infinite derivative operators. General UV properties of amplitudes in non-local theories are discussed.

Electromagnetic Corrections for Pions and Kaons : Masses and Polarizabilities

1996

The unknown constants in Chiral Perturbation Theory needed for an all orders analysis of the polarizabilities and electromagnetic corrections to the masses of the pseudo-Goldstone bosons are estimated at leading order in $1/N_c$. We organize the calculation in an $1/N_c$-expansion and separate long- and short-distance physics contributions by introducing an Euclidean cut-off. The long-distance part is evaluated using the ENJL model and the short-distance part using perturbative QCD and factorization. We obtain very good matching between both. We then include these estimates in a full Chiral Perturbation Theory calculation to order $e^2$ $p^2$ for the masses and $p^6$ for the polarizabilitie…
