AbstractThe paper is devoted to the interior Euler-Lagrange operator in field theory, representing an important tool for constructing the variational sequence. We give a new invariant definition of this operator by means of a natural decomposition of spaces of differential forms, appearing in the sequence, which defines its basic properties. Our definition extends the well-known cases of the Euler-Lagrange class (Euler-Lagrange form) and the Helmholtz class (Helmholtz form). This linear operator has the property of a projector, and its kernel consists of contact forms. The result generalizes an analogous theorem valid for variational sequences over 1-dimensional manifolds and completes the known heuristic expressions by explicit characterizations and proofs.

In this paper, we discuss possible extensions of the concept of the Cartan form of classical mechanics to higher-order mechanics on manifolds, higher-order field theory on jet bundles and to parametric variational problems on slit tangent bundles and on bundles of nondegenerate velocities. We present a generalization of the Cartan form, known as a Lepage form, and basic properties of the Lepage forms. Both earlier and recent examples of differential forms generalizing the Cartan form are reviewed.

In recent years, A. Di Nola et al. studied the notions of MV-semiring and semimodules and investigated related results [9, 10, 12, 26]. Now in this paper, by using an MV-semiring and an MV-algebra, we introduce the new definition of MV-semimodule, study basic properties and find some examples. Then we study A-ideals on MV-semimodules and Q-ideals on MV-semirings, and by using them, we study the quotient structures of MV-semimodule. Finally, we present the notions of prime A-ideal, torsion free MV-semimodule and annihilator on MV-semimodule and we study the relations among them.

AbstractIn the Lagrangian approach to 2-dimensional sigma models, B-fields and D-branes contribute topological terms to the action of worldsheets of both open and closed strings. We show that these terms naturally fit into a 2-dimensional, smooth open-closed functorial field theory (FFT) in the sense of Atiyah, Segal, and Stolz–Teichner. We give a detailed construction of this smooth FFT, based on the definition of a suitable smooth bordism category. In this bordism category, all manifolds are equipped with a smooth map to a spacetime target manifold. Further, the object manifolds are allowed to have boundaries; these are the endpoints of open strings stretched between D-branes. The values of our FFT are obtained from the B-field and its D-branes via transgression. Our construction generalises work of Bunke–Turner–Willerton to include open strings. At the same time, it generalises work of Moore–Segal about open-closed TQFTs to include target spaces. We provide a number of further features of our FFT: we show that it depends functorially on the B-field and the D-branes, we show that it is thin homotopy invariant, and we show that it comes equipped with a positive reflection structure in the sense of Freed–Hopkins. Finally, we describe how our construction is related to the classification of open-closed TQFTs obtained by Lauda–Pfeiffer.

Abstract A precise link is derived between scalar-graviton S-matrix elements and expectation values of operators in a worldline quantum field theory (WQFT), both used to describe classical scattering of black holes. The link is formally provided by a worldline path integral representation of the graviton-dressed scalar propagator, which may be inserted into a traditional definition of the S-matrix in terms of time-ordered correlators. To calculate expectation values in the WQFT a new set of Feynman rules is introduced which treats the gravitational field hμν(x) and position $$ {x}_i^{\mu}\left({\tau}_i\right) $$ x i μ τ i of each black hole on equal footing. Using these both the 3PM three-body gravitational radiation 〈hμv(k)〉 and 2PM two-body deflection $$ \Delta {p}_i^{\mu } $$ Δ p i μ from classical black hole scattering events are obtained. The latter can also be obtained from the eikonal phase of a 2 → 2 scalar S-matrix, which we show corresponds to the free energy of the WQFT.

Abstract A strong submeasure on a compact metric space X is a sub-linear and bounded operator on the space of continuous functions on X. A strong submeasure is positive if it is non-decreasing. By the Hahn–Banach theorem, a positive strong submeasure is the supremum of a non-empty collection of measures whose masses are uniformly bounded from above. There are many natural examples of continuous maps of the form $f:U\rightarrow X$ , where X is a compact metric space and $U\subset X$ is an open-dense subset, where f cannot extend to a reasonable function on X. We can mention cases such as transcendental maps of $\mathbb {C}$ , meromorphic maps on compact complex varieties, or continuous self-maps $f:U\rightarrow U$ of a dense open subset $U\subset X$ where X is a compact metric space. For the aforementioned mentioned the use of measures is not sufficient to establish the basic properties of ergodic theory, such as the existence of invariant measures or a reasonable definition of measure-theoretic entropy and topological entropy. In this paper we show that strong submeasures can be used to completely resolve the issue and establish these basic properties. In another paper we apply strong submeasures to the intersection of positive closed $(1,1)$ currents on compact Kähler manifolds.

The analogues of Arimoto’s definition of conditional Rényi entropy and Rényi mutual information are explored for abstract alphabets. These quantities, although dependent on the reference measure, have some useful properties similar to those known in the discrete setting. In addition to laying out some such basic properties and the relations to Rényi divergences, the relationships between the families of mutual informations defined by Sibson, Augustin-Csiszár, and Lapidoth-Pfister, as well as the corresponding capacities, are explored.

Summary In this article, we described basic properties of Riemann integral on functions from R into Real Banach Space. We proved mainly the linearity of integral operator about the integral of continuous functions on closed interval of the set of real numbers. These theorems were based on the article [10] and we referred to the former articles about Riemann integral. We applied definitions and theorems introduced in the article [9] and the article [11] to the proof. Using the definition of the article [10], we also proved some theorems on bounded functions.

In 1999 Molodtsov introduced the concept of soft set theory as a general mathematical tool for dealing with uncertainty. Alkhazaleh et al. in 2011 introduced the definition of a soft multiset as a generalization of Molodtsov's soft set. In this paper we give the definition of fuzzy soft multiset as a combination of soft multiset and fuzzy set and study its properties and operations. We give examples for these concepts. Basic properties of the operations are also given. An application of this theory in decision-making problems is shown.

For a real Hilbert space(H,〈,〉), a subspaceL⊂H⊕His said to be a Dirac structure onHif it is maximally isotropic with respect to the pairing〈(x,y),(x′,y′)〉+=(1/2)(〈x,y′〉+〈x′,y〉). By investigating some basic properties of these structures, it is shown that Dirac structures onHare in one-to-one correspondence with isometries onH, and, any two Dirac structures are isometric. It is, also, proved that any Dirac structure on a smooth manifold in the sense of [1] yields a Dirac structure on some Hilbert space. The graph of any densely defined skew symmetric linear operator on a Hilbert space is, also, shown to be a Dirac structure. For a Dirac structureLonH, everyz∈His uniquely decomposed asz=p1(l)+p2(l)for somel∈L, wherep1andp2are projections. Whenp1(L)is closed, for any Hilbert subspaceW⊂H, an induced Dirac structure onWis introduced. The latter concept has also been generalized.
