We define the appropriate homological setting to study deformation theory of complete locally convex (curved) dg-algebras based on Positselski's contraderived categories. We define the corresponding Hochschild complex controlling…
We introduce a new family of affine metrics on a locally strictly convex surface $M$ in affine 4-space. Then, we define the symmetric and antisymmetric equiaffine planes associated with each metric. We show that if $M$ is immersed in a…
We give a new interpretation and proof of the "quasi-particle" type character formulas for integrable representations of the simply-laced affine Kac-Moody algebras through a new "semi-infinite" construction of such representations. We…
We extend the short presentation due to [Borel '53] of the cohomology ring of a generalized flag manifold to a relatively short presentation of the cohomology of any of its Schubert varieties. Our result is stated in a root-system uniform…
A cohomological study is made of an equivariant map betwen the configuration space of n points in space and the flag manifold of U(n).
Let G be a reductive algebraic group over the complex number filed, and K = G^{\theta} be the fixed points of an involutive automorphism \theta of G so that (G, K) is a symmetric pair. We take parabolic subgroups P and Q of G and K…
We establish the formula for multiplication by the class of a special Schubert variety in the integral cohomology ring of the flag manifold. This formula also describes the multiplication of a Schubert polynomial by either an elementary…
We introduce and study the equiaffine symmetric {\bf hyperspheres}. For the first step we consider the locally strongly convex ones. In fact, by the idea used by Naitoh, we provide in this paper a direct proof of the complete classification…
In this paper we study the T-equivariant generalized cohomology of flag varieties using two models, the Borel model and the moment graph model. We study the differences between the Schubert classes and the Bott-Samelson classes. After setup…
We present a new application of affine Lie algebras to massive quantum field theory in 2 dimensions, by investigating the $q\to 1$ limit of the q-deformed affine $\hat{sl(2)}$ symmetry of the sine-Gordon theory, this limit occurring at the…
We present a new class of affine Gorenstein 6-folds obtained by smoothing the 1-dimensional singular locus of a reducible affine toric surface; their existence is established using explicit methods in toric geometry and serial use of…
We give an explicit affine algebraic variety whose coordinate ring is isomorphic (as an algebra with the action of the Weyl group) with the equivariant cohomology of some Springer fibers.
We prove that Schubert and Richardson varieties in flag manifolds are uniquely determined by their equivariant cohomology classes, as well as a stronger result that replaces Schubert varieties with closures of Bialynicki-Birula cells under…
We introduce equivariant versions of uniform rationality: given an algebraic group G, a G-variety is called G-uniformly rational (resp. G-linearly uniformly rational) if every point has a G-invariant open neighborhood equivariantly…
M. Goresky, G. Harder, and R. MacPherson defined weighted cohomologies of arithmetic groups \Gamma in a real group G, with coefficients in certain local systems, associated to arbitrary upper and lower weight profiles. The author shows,…
We prove that the norm-square of a moment map associated to a linear action of a compact group on an affine variety satisfies a certain gradient inequality. This allows us to bound the gradient flow, even if we do not assume that the moment…
Deformation quantization on varieties with singularities offers perspectives that are not found on manifolds. Essential deformations are classified by the Harrison component of Hochschild cohomology, that vanishes on smooth manifolds and…

The octonionic flag manifold $Fl(\mathbb{O})$ is the space of all pairs in $\mathbb{O}P^2\times \mathbb{O}P^2$ (where $\mathbb{O}P^2$ denotes the octonionic projective plane) which satisfy a certain "incidence" relation. It comes equipped…
