Kontsevich and Soibelman reformulated and slightly generalised the topological recursion of [43], seeing it as a quantisation of certain quadratic Lagrangians in T*V for some vector space V. KS topological recursion is a procedure which takes as initial da ...
We study the kinematics of correlation functions of local and extended operators in a conformal field theory. We present a new method for constructing the tensor structures associated to primary operators in an arbitrary bosonic representation of the Loren ...
We study correlation functions involving generalized ANEC operators of the form integral dx-x-n+2T--x -> in four dimensions. We compute two, three, and ...
This thesis is concerned with the algebraic theory of hermitian forms. It is organized in two parts. The first, consisting of the first two chapters, deals with some descent properties of unimodular hermitian forms over central simple algebras with involut ...
In this thesis we are interested in the following problem : given two differential k–forms g and f, most of the time they will be assumed closed, on what conditions can we pullback g to f by a map φ ? In other words we ask when it is possible to solve the ...
The connection between derivative operators and wavelets is well known. Here we generalize the concept by constructing multiresolution approximations and wavelet basis functions that act like Fourier multiplier operators. This construction follows from a s ...
This article approaches the incremental view maintenance problem from an algebraic perspective. The algebraic structure of a ring of databases is constructed and extended to form a powerful aggregate query calculus. The query calculus inherits the key prop ...

We prove trace inequalities for a self-adjoint operator on an abstract Hilbert space, which extend those known previously for Laplacians and Schrodinger operators, freeing them from restrictive assumptions on the nature of the spectrum and allowing operato ...
K-Theory was originally defined by Grothendieck as a contravariant functor from a subcategory of schemes to abelian groups, known today as K0. The same kind of construction was then applied to other fields of mathematics, like spaces and (not necessarily c ...
