A Kastler‐Kalau‐Walze Type Theorem and the Spectral Action for Perturbations of Dirac Operators on Manifolds with Boundary

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
We prove a Kastler‐Kalau‐Walze type theorem for perturbations of Dirac operators on compact manifolds with or without boundary. As a corollary, we give two kinds of operator‐theoretic explanations of the gravitational action on boundary. We also compute the spectral action for Dirac operators with two‐form perturbations on 4‐dimensional compact ...

The Hausdorff Dimension of the Penrose Universe

open access: yesPhysics Research International, Volume 2011, Issue 1, 2011., 2011
Penrose fractal tiling is one of the simplest generic examples for a noncommutative space. In the present work, we determine the Hausdorff dimension corresponding to a four‐dimensional analogue of the so‐calledPenrose Universe and show how it could be used in resolving various fundamental problems in high energy physics and cosmology.

Infinite‐Dimensional Lie Groups and Algebras in Mathematical Physics

open access: yesAdvances in Mathematical Physics, Volume 2010, Issue 1, 2010., 2010
We give a review of infinite‐dimensional Lie groups and algebras and show some applications and examples in mathematical physics. This includes diffeomorphism groups and their natural subgroups like volume‐preserving and symplectic transformations, as well as gauge groups and loop groups.

Horoballs in simplices and Minkowski spaces

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2006, Issue 1, 2006., 2006
We obtain precise descriptions of all horoballs for Hilbert′s geometry on simplices and for normed finite‐dimensional vector spaces with norm given by some polyhedron. Certain geometrical consequences are deduced and several other applications are pointed out, which concern the dynamics of important classes of nonlinear self‐maps of convex cones.

Transfers for ramified covering maps in homology and cohomology

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2006, Issue 1, 2006., 2006
Making use of a modified version, due to McCord, of the Dold‐Thom construction of ordinary homology, we give a simple topological definition of a transfer for ramified covering maps in homology with arbitrary coefficients. The transfer is induced by a suitable map between topological groups. We also define a new cohomology transfer which is dual to the

The Baum‐Connes conjecture, noncommutative Poincaré duality, and the boundary of the free group

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2003, Issue 38, Page 2425-2445, 2003., 2003
For every hyperbolic group Γ with Gromov boundary ∂Γ, one can form the cross product C∗‐algebra C(∂Γ)⋊Γ. For each such algebra, we construct a canonical K‐homology class. This class induces a Poincaré duality map K∗(C(∂Γ)⋊Γ) → K∗+1(C(∂Γ)⋊Γ). We show that this map is an isomorphism in the case of Γ = 𝔽2, the free group on two generators.

Nonassociative algebras: a framework for differential geometry

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2003, Issue 60, Page 3777-3795, 2003., 2003
A nonassociative algebra endowed with a Lie bracket, called a torsion algebra, is viewed as an algebraic analog of a manifold with an affine connection. Its elements are interpreted as vector fields and its multiplication is interpreted as a connection. This provides a framework for differential geometry on a formal manifold with a formal connection.

Lajos Takács and his work

open access: yesInternational Journal of Stochastic Analysis, Volume 7, Issue 3, Page 215-237, 1994., 1994
This paper, written in honor of the 70th birthday of Lajos Takács, addresses his life and work, and includes some personal observations and appreciation of his contributions. In particular, it includes a short biography, an informal discussion of some of his major research areas (queueing, fluctuations, waiting time processes, and random rooted trees),
