In this paper we analyze the structure of some sets of non-commutative moments of elements in a finite von Neumann algebra M. If the fundamental group of M is R_+\{0}, then the moment sets are convex, and if M is isomorphic to M tensor M,…

We describe the equivariant cohomology of cofibers of spherical perverse sheaves on the affine Grassmannian of a reductive algebraic group in terms of the geometry of the Langlands dual group. In fact we give two equivalent descriptions:…

This is part one of a series of papers. In this series of papers, we consider problems analogous to the Oppenheim conjecture from the viewpoint of prehomogeneous vector spaces.

We conjecture that any perverse sheaf on a compact aspherical K\"ahler manifold has non-negative Euler characteristic. This extends the Singer-Hopf conjecture in the K\"ahler setting. We verify the stronger conjecture when the manifold X…

Combining results from Keller and Buchweitz, we describe the 1-periodic derived category of a finite dimensional algebra $A$ of finite global dimension as the stable category of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules over some Gorenstein algebra…

The essential parts of the operad algebra are concisely presented, which should be useful when confronting with the operadic physics. It is also clarified how the Gerstenhaber algebras can be associated with the linear pre-operads (comp…

We notice that, for branes wrapped on complex analytic subvarieties, the algebraic-geometric version of K-theory makes the identification between brane-antibrane pairs and lower-dimensional branes automatic. This is because coherent sheaves…

Graded Hecke algebras can be constructed geometrically, with constructible sheaves and equivariant cohomology. The input consists of a complex reductive group G (possibly disconnected) and a cuspidal local system on a nilpotent orbit for a…

We study projectively flat holomorphic vector bundles over Riemann surfaces. To each such bundle, we naturally assign a Wronskian line bundle. The main idea is a notion of the division of two meromorphic sections. Abel's identity is…

This paper considers the problem of consistently defining subsystems in gravitational theories. It is argued that a subsystem is a spacetime subregion in which the observables form a closed Poisson algebra. In a generally covariant theory,…

We prove that for any infinite, maximal amenable subgroup $H$ in a hyperbolic group $G$, the von Neumann subalgebra $LH$ is maximal amenable inside $LG$. It provides many new, explicit examples of maximal amenable subalgebras in II$_1$…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $H$ a normal subgroup. Starting from $G$-spin models, in which a non-Abelian field ${\mathcal{F}}_H$ w.r.t. $H$ carries an action of the Hopf $C^*$-algebra $D(H;G)$, a subalgebra of the quantum double $D(G)$,…

A natural extension of the Hopf-cyclic cohomology, with coefficients, is introduced to encompass topological Hopf algebras. The topological theory allows to work with infinite dimensional Lie algebras. Furthermore, the category of…

This paper is an exploration of the nuanced realm of reference frames within the framework of General Relativity. Our analysis exposes a violation of Earman's SP1 principle in scenarios involving fields that are dynamically uncoupled, a…

A subtheory of a quantum field theory specifies von~Neumann subalgebras $\aa(\oo)$ (the `observables' in the space-time region $\oo$) of the von~Neumann algebras $\bb(\oo)$ (the `fields' localized in $\oo$). Every local algebra being a…

This paper continues our study of the sheaf associated to K\"ahler differentials in the cdh-topology and its cousins, in positive characteristic, without assuming resolution of singularities. The picture for the sheaves themselves is now…

We give classifications of linear orbits of pairs of square matrices with non-vanishing discriminant polynomials over a field in terms of certain coherent sheaves with additional data on closed subschemes of the projective line. Our results…

Cosheaves are a dual notion of sheaves. In this paper, we prove existence of a dual of sheafifications, called \textit{cosheafifications}, in the $\infty$-category theory. We also prove that the $\infty$-category of $\infty$-cosheaves is…

Let $S$ be a scheme contained in $\mathbf{Sch}_{fppf}$. Let $\mathfrak{X}$ be a Noetherian separated algebraic space over $S$. In this paper, we interpret localizing subcategories of the derived category of $\mathfrak{X}$ by using subsets…

We give a full classification of 6-dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras over an arbitrary field, including fields that are not algebraically closed and fields of characteristic~2. To achieve the classification we use the action of the…
