SPECTRAL GEOMETRY OF SPACETIME
2000
Spacetime, understood as a globally hyperbolic manifold, may be characterized by spectral data using a 3+1 splitting into space and time, a description of space by spectral triples and by employing causal relationships, as proposed earlier. Here, it is proposed to use the Hadamard condition of quantum field theory as a smoothness principle.
Higher genera Catalan numbers and Hirota equations for extended nonlinear Schrödinger hierarchy
2021
We consider the Dubrovin--Frobenius manifold of rank $2$ whose genus expansion at a special point controls the enumeration of a higher genera generalization of the Catalan numbers, or, equivalently, the enumeration of maps on surfaces, ribbon graphs, Grothendieck's dessins d'enfants, strictly monotone Hurwitz numbers, or lattice points in the moduli spaces of curves. Liu, Zhang, and Zhou conjectured that the full partition function of this Dubrovin--Frobenius manifold is a tau-function of the extended nonlinear Schr\"odinger hierarchy, an extension of a particular rational reduction of the Kadomtsev--Petviashvili hierarchy. We prove a version of their conjecture specializing the Givental--M…
SOV approach for integrable quantum models associated to general representations on spin-1/2 chains of the 8-vertex reflection algebra
2013
The analysis of the transfer matrices associated to the most general representations of the 8-vertex reflection algebra on spin-1/2 chains is here implemented by introducing a quantum separation of variables (SOV) method which generalizes to these integrable quantum models the method first introduced by Sklyanin. More in detail, for the representations reproducing in their homogeneous limits the open XYZ spin-1/2 quantum chains with the most general integrable boundary conditions, we explicitly construct representations of the 8-vertex reflection algebras for which the transfer matrix spectral problem is separated. Then, in these SOV representations we get the complete characterization of t…
Droits et histoire
2021
L’historiographie contemporaine n’a découvert que récemment l’intérêt que pouvait présenter la Repetitio in cap. Raynutius, de testamentis de Guillaume Benoît pour l’histoire des idées politiques. C’est à l’historien américain Ralph E. Giesey que revient le mérite d’avoir exhumé chez le canoniste toulousain la part originale qu’il a apportée à la savante construction juridique de la règle de succession au trône de France. Il faut rendre ensuite hommage à Colette Beaune pour avoir souvent renc...
La section spéciale de Dijon
2001
Chargees de reprimer les activites communistes, les sections speciales devaient rendre des sentences arbitraires et exemplaires. Or, l’examen des archives de la section speciale de Dijon, de septembre 1941 a aout 1944, montre que son activite penale n’a rien de terrible (26 % de relaxe, un seul cas de perpetuite) d’autant qu’elle conserve certaines garanties de procedure (presence des avocats). De fait, les Allemands repriment sommairement les actes de la Resistance, ce qui explique la minceur de son contentieux ordinaire (distribution de tracts). Ces juridictions sont donc un ersatz de souverainete francaise et, surtout, une reserve d’otages dans la guerre menee par l’occupant contre la Re…
Le droit privé de la Révolution : héritage législatif et héritage idéologique
2002
Jean-Louis Halpérin, Private Law and the Revolution : Legislative Heritage and Ideological Heritage. The private law of the French Revolution is to-day no longer considered an intermediary law. Yet from a positivist point of view, most of the provisions enacted in this area between 1788 to 1799 were of short duration. Indeed, a large part of revolutionary private law is made up of bills and drafts which were never implemented. This singularity invites us to ponder the legal ideological nature of a law which barely left the drawing-board and its impact in France and abroad.

L'histoire des politiques culturelles des villes
1997
The history of cities' cultural policies, Philippe Poivrier. At the crossroads of the renewal of political history and cultural history, a new research area has been open to historians after a heavy occupation of the land by sociologists and political scientists. The article goes into the methodological stakes that accompany the examination of this public treatment of culture. A new approach of the social stakes of our societies could take effect, by giving to contemporary history a goal that has not been very much in evidence until now: the well-argued study of locality.
