In this paper we study the cohomology of smooth projective complex surfaces $S$ of general type with invariants $p_g = q = 2$ and surjective Albanese morphism. We show that on a Hodge-theoretic level, the cohomology is described by the…

We discuss an example of a triangulated Hopf category related to SL(2). It is an equivariant derived category equipped with multiplication and comultiplication functors and structure isomorphisms. We prove some coherence equations for…

For Connes' spectral triples, the group of automorphisms lifted to the Hilbert space is defined and used to fluctuate the metric. A few commutative examples are presented including Chamseddine and Connes' spectral unification of gravity and…

The first part of this paper considers higher order CR invariants of three dimensional hypersurfaces of finite type. Using a full normal form we give a complete characterization of hypersurfaces with trivial local automorphism group, and…

For $S$ a closed surface of genus at least $2$, let $\mathrm{Hit}_3(S)$ be the Hitchin component of representations to $\mathrm{SL}(3,\mathbb{R}),$ equipped with the Labourie-Loftin complex structure. We construct a mapping class group…

We study Cox rings of K3-surfaces. A first result is that a K3-surface has a finitely generated Cox ring if and only if its effective cone is polyhedral. Moreover, we investigate degrees of generators and relations for Cox rings of…

In the present paper, we study an extended theory of statistical manifolds in application to affine differential geometry. Any smooth hypersurface $M \subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ with a transverse vector field $\xi$ naturally admits a…

We prove analogues of the fundamental theorem of algebraic K-theory for the second and third homology of SL_2 over an infinite field k. The statements involve Milnor-Witt K-theory and scissors congruence groups. We use these results to…

All SL($n$) contravariant vector valuations on polytopes in $\mathbb R^n$ are completely classified without any additional assumptions. The facet vector is defined. It turns out to be the unique such valuation for $n\geq3$. In dimension…

We study GIT quotients $X_\theta=V\!/\!\!/\!_\theta G$ whose linearisation map defines an isomorphism between the group of characters of $G$ and the Picard group of $X_\theta$ modulo torsion. Our main result establishes that the Cox ring of…

We consider commutative Frobenius pseudomonoids in the bicategory of spans, and we show that they are in correspondence with 2-Segal cosymmetric sets. Such a structure can be interpreted as a coherent 2-dimensional topological quantum field…

This article is a continuation of [Kub18], which proves that if a $3$-dimensional affine normal quasihomogeneous $SL(2)$-variety $E$ is toric, then it has an equivariant resolution of singularities given by an invariant Hilbert scheme…

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 show that a locally Ahlfors 2-regular and locally linearly locally contractible metric surface is locally quasisymmetrically equivalent to the disk. We also discuss an application of this result to the problem of characterizing surfaces…

We classify right coideal subalgebras of the finite-dimensional quotient of the quantized enveloping algebra $U_q(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ and that of the quantized coordinate algebra $\mathcal{O}_q(SL_2)$ at a root of unity $q$ of odd order. All…

By definition, a quadratic Lie superalgebra is a Lie superalgebra endowed with a non-degenerate supersymmetric bilinear form which satisfies the even and invariant properties. In this paper we calculate all of the second cohomology group of…

By generalizing a fermionic construction, a natural relation is found between SL(2) degenerate conformal field theories and some N=2 discrete superconformal series. These non-unitary models contain, as a subclass, N=2 minimal models. The…

For a cubic hypersurface $X$, work of Galkin--Shinder and Voisin shows the existence of a birational map relating the Hilbert scheme of two points $X^{[2]}$ with a certain projective bundle over $X$. Belmans--Fu--Raedschelders show that…

An infinite family of ND spaces endowed with sl(2)-coalgebra symmetry is introduced. For all these spaces the geodesic flow is superintegrable, and the explicit form of their common set of integrals is obtained from the underlying…

We give a combinatorial characterization of the group of quasiconformal homeomorphisms of a closed, oriented surface $S$ of genus at least $2$. In particular, we prove they are exactly the automorphisms of a graph of essential quasicircles…
