We will demonstrate how calculations in toric geometry can be used to compute quantum corrections to the relations in the chiral ring for certain gauge theories. We focus on the gauge theory of the del Pezzo 2, and derive the chiral ring…
We define a cohomology for an arbitrary $K$-linear semistrict semigroupal 2-category $(\mathfrak{C},\otimes)$ (called in the paper a Gray semigroup) and show that its first order (unitary) deformations, up to the suitable notion of…
We study the spectral properties of Schr\"odinger operators on a compact connected Riemannian manifold $M$ without boundary in case that the underlying Hamiltonian system possesses certain symmetries. More precisely, if $M$ carries an…
Eguchi-Hori-Xiong and S. Katz proposed a conjecture that the partition function of topological sigma model coupled to gravity is annihilated by infinitely many differential operators which form half branch of the Virasoro algebra. In this…
Twisted holography relates the two-dimensional chiral algebra subsector of $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM to the B-model topological string theory on the deformed conifold $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$. We review the relevant aspects of the duality and its two…

We consider several differential operators on compact almost-complex, almost-Hermitian and almost-K\"ahler manifolds. We discuss Hodge Theory for these operators and a possible cohomological interpretation. We compare the associated spaces…
This text collects useful results concerning the quasi-Hopf algebra $\D $. We give a review of issues related to its use in conformal theories and physical mathematics. Existence of such algebras based on 3-cocycles with values in $ {R} /…
Progress along the line of a previous article are reported. One main point is to include chiral operators with fractional quantum group spins (fourth or sixth of integers) which are needed to achieve modular invariance. We extend the study…
Twisted homomorphisms of bialgebras are bialgebra homomorphisms from the first into Drinfeld twistings of the second. They possess a composition operation extending composition of bialgebra homomorphisms. Gauge transformations of twists,…
We use chain level genus zero Gromov-Witten theory to associate to any closed monotone symplectic manifold a formal group (loosely interpreted), whose Lie algebra is the odd degree cohomology of the manifold (with vanishing bracket). When…
Certain perturbative aspects of two-dimensional sigma models with (0,2) supersymmetry are investigated. The main goal is to understand in physical terms how the mathematical theory of ``chiral differential operators'' is related to sigma…
The paper consists of two parts. In the first, we describe a way of getting from an algebra of chiral differential operators (cdo) on an abelian variety a cdo on the dual variety. The second is an introduction to the sigma-model on a torus…
A general method based on the polynomial deformations of the Lie algebra sl(2,R) is proposed in order to exhibit the quasi-exactly solvability of specific Hamiltonians implied by quantum physical models. This method using the…
In this paper we study the commutators of fractional type integral operators. This operators are given by kernels of theform $$K(x,y)=k_1(x-A_1y)k_2(x-A_2y)\dots k_m(x-A_my),$$ where $A_i$ are invertibles matrices and each $k_i$ satisfies a…
This paper is to study what we call twisted regular representations for vertex operator algebras. Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra, let $\sigma_1,\sigma_2$ be commuting finite-order automorphisms of $V$ and let…
An algebra $A$ with identity $(a\circ b)\circ c-a\circ(b\circ c)=(a\circ c)\circ b-a\circ(c\circ b),$ is called right-symmetric. Cohomology and deformation theory for right-symmetric algebras are developed. Cohomologies of $gl_n$ and…
Vertex algebras are equivalent to translation-equivariant chiral algebras on $\mathbb{A}^1$, in the sense of Beilinson and Drinfeld. In this paper we give an algebraic construction of a chiral algebra on $\mathbb{A}^n$; this can be seen as…
In this note, we use some of the tensor categorial machinery developed by the quantum algebra community to study algebraic objects which appear in representation stability. In MR3430359, Sam and Snowden prove that the twisted commutative…
In this paper, we consider compatible Hom-associative algebras as a twisted version of compatible associative algebras. Compatible Hom-associative algebras are characterized as Maurer-Cartan elements in a suitable bidifferential graded Lie…
