Reduction of a symplectic-like Lie algebroid with momentum map and its application to fiberwise linear Poisson structures [PDF]
This article addresses the problem of developing an extension of the Marsden- Weinstein reduction process to symplectic Lie algebroids, and in particular to the case of the symplectic cover of a fiberwise linear Poisson structure, whose reduction process is the analogue to cotangent bundle reduction in the context of Lie algebroids.

The Necessary Uniformity of Physical Probability
ABSTRACT According to contemporary consensus, physical probabilities may be “non‐uniform”: they need not correspond to a uniform measure over the space of physically possible worlds. Against consensus, I argue that only uniform probabilities connect robustly to long‐run frequencies.

Module structure of Weyl algebras
Abstract The seminal paper (Stafford, J. Lond. Math. Soc. (2) 18 (1978), no. 3, 429–442) was a major step forward in our understanding of Weyl algebras. Beginning with Serre's Theorem on free summands of projective modules and Bass' Stable Range Theorem in commutative algebra, we attempt to trace the origins of this work and explain how it led to ...

ABSTRACT We apply the discrete mechanics approach to the discretisation of geometrically exact Cosserat rods. We consider discrete Cosserat rods defined on a vertex (or nodal) grid, as well as on a staggered grid, and provide a review and update of the results already obtained in Part I for the nodal model variant and, for the first time, present a ...

Supercurrents and Tunneling in Massive Many‐Vortex Necklaces and Star‐Lattices
It is numerically shown how massive many‐vortex systems, in a mixture of Bose–Einstein condensates, can host the bosonic tunneling of the infilling component in an almost‐periodic way when the vortices are organized in necklaces or star‐lattices. The purpose is to explore the conditions for the onset of Josephson supercurrents in rotating many‐vortex ...

Radio Wave Propagation Revisited With Application to High‐Latitude Ionospheric Scintillation
Abstract The subject of radio‐wave propagation in various media, including turbulent plasmas, has for more than a century preoccupied astronomers, space plasma physicists, scientists, and engineers interested in the problem of wave scattering by turbulent media.

Maximal symplectic torus actions
Abstract There are several different notions of maximal torus actions on smooth manifolds, in various contexts: symplectic, Riemannian, complex. In the symplectic context, for the so‐called isotropy‐maximal actions, as well as for the weaker notion of almost isotropy‐maximal actions, we give classifications up to equivariant symplectomorphism.

Recursive Relations for the S‐matrix of Liouville Theory
Abstract The relation between the vertex operators of the in and out fields in Liouville theory is analyzed. This is used to derive equations for the S‐matrix, from which a recursive relation for the normal symbol of the S‐matrix for discrete center‐of‐mass momenta is obtained.

Holomorphic field theories and higher algebra
Abstract Aimed at complex geometers and representation theorists, this survey explores higher dimensional analogs of the rich interplay between Riemann surfaces, Virasoro and Kac‐Moody Lie algebras, and conformal blocks. We introduce a panoply of examples from physics — field theories that are holomorphic in nature, such as holomorphic Chern‐Simons ...

Extrapolation Boundary Conditions for 2‐D Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
This paper introduces novel inflow, outflow, and wall boundaries for the WCSPH method. Utilising innovative concepts from finite volume methods, fluid properties of sequential dynamic particles with varying distances to boundaries are extrapolated to ghost and wall particles using first‐order Taylor series expansion.
