This article presents a reformulation of the Theory of Functional Connections: a general methodology for functional interpolation that can embed a set of user-specified linear constraints. The reformulation presented in this paper exploits the underlying

Theory of teaching: good traditions, old traps, new perspectives. [PDF]
The article is an attempt to diagnose the condition of the Polish theory of teaching in a temporal perspective. The starting point is the identification of three main strengths of the interwar theory of teaching: the interdisciplinarity of analyses ...

The Hamilton--Jacobi Theory and the Analogy between Classical and Quantum Mechanics [PDF]
We review here some conventional as well as less conventional aspects of the time-independent and time-dependent Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) theory and of its connections with Quantum Mechanics.

Riemannian Geometry of Noncommutative Surfaces [PDF]
A Riemannian geometry of noncommutative n-dimensional surfaces is developed as a first step towards the construction of a consistent noncommutative gravitational theory.

Abelian Chern–Simons theory, Stokes’ theorem, and generalized connections
Generalized connections and their calculus have been developed in the context of quantum gravity. Here we apply them to abelian Chern-Simons theory. We derive the expectation values of holonomies in U(1) Chern-Simons theory using Stokes' theorem, flux operators and generalized connections. A framing of the holonomy loops arises in our construction, and

Self Duality and Quantization [PDF]
Quantum theory of the free Maxwell field in Minkowski space is constructed using a representation in which the self dual connection is diagonal. Quantum states are now holomorphic functionals of self dual connections and a decomposition of fields into ...

Quantum integrability from non-simply laced quiver gauge theory
We consider the compactifcation of 5d non-simply laced fractional quiver gauge theory constructed in [1]. In contrast to the simply laced quivers, here two Ω-background parameters play different roles, so that we can take two possible Nekrasov ...
