On extended symmetries for the Galileon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We investigate a large class of infinitesimal, but fully nonlinear in the field, transformations of the Galileon and search for extended symmetries. The transformations involve powers of the coordinates $x$ and the field $\pi$ up to any finite order $N$.

Affine connections and second-order affine structures

open access: yes, 2020
Smooth manifolds have been always understood intuitively as spaces with an affine geometry on the infinitesimal scale. In Synthetic Differential Geometry this can be made precise by showing that a smooth manifold carries a natural structure of an ...

Infinitesimal Automorphisms of VB-Groupoids and Algebroids [PDF]

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of Mathematics, 2016
VB-groupoids and algebroids are vector bundle objects in the categories of Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids, respectively, and they are related via the Lie functor.

Infinitesimal 2-braidings and differential crossed modules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We categorify the notion of an infinitesimal braiding in a linear strict symmetric monoidal category, leading to the notion of a (strict) infinitesimal 2-braiding in a linear symmetric strict monoidal 2-category.

Symmetries of the Einstein Equations [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Generalized symmetries of the Einstein equations are infinitesimal transformations of the spacetime metric that formally map solutions of the Einstein equations to other solutions. The infinitesimal generators of these symmetries are assumed to be local,

Interpreting the Infinitesimal Mathematics of Leibniz and Euler [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We apply Benacerraf’s distinction between mathematical ontology and mathematical practice (or the structures mathematicians use in practice) to examine contrasting interpretations of infinitesimal mathematics of the seventeenth and eighteenth century, in

How to differentiate a quantum stochastic cocycle. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Two new approaches to the infinitesimal characterisation of quantum stochastic cocycles are reviewed. The first concerns mapping cocycles on an operator space and demonstrates the role of H\"older continuity; the second concerns contraction operator ...

EQUIVOCATION IN THE FOUNDATIONS OF LEIBNIZ’S INFINITESIMAL FICTIONS [PDF]

open access: yesSocietate şi Politică, 2012
In this article, I address two different kinds of equivocations in reading Leibniz’s fictional infinite and infinitesimal. These equivocations form the background of a reductive reading of infinite and infinitesimal fictions either as ultimately finite ...

Deformaciones isométricas infinitesimales de superficies multidimensionales ensambladas

open access: yesRevista de Matemática: Teoría y Aplicaciones, 2012
The article introduces the concept of multidimensional pasted surfaces and considers the case of different dimensions in the surfaces to be pasted. Infinitesimal deformations of such surfaces are also considered.

On convergence properties of infinitesimal generators of scaled multi-type CBI processes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
It is a common method for proving weak convergence of a sequence of time-homogeneous Markov processes towards a time-homogeneous Markov process first to show convergence of the corresponding infinitesimal generators and then to check some additional ...
