Geometric Langlands duality relates a representation of a simple Lie group $G^\vee$ to the cohomology of a certain moduli space associated with the dual group $G$. In this correspondence, a principal $SL_2$ subgroup of $G^\vee$ makes an…
We study a Lie algebra of formal vector fields $W_n$ with its application to the perturbative deformed holomorphic symplectic structure in the A-model, and a Calabi-Yau manifold with boundaries in the B-model. A relevant concept in the…
In the matrix model approaches of string/M theories, one starts from a generic symmetry $gl(\infty)$ to reproduce the space-time manifold. In this paper, we consider the generalization in which the space-time manifold emerges from a gauge…
Let $G$ be a simply connected Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and denote by $\mathrm{C}_{\bullet}(G)$ the DG Hopf algebra of smooth singular chains on $G$. In a companion paper it was shown that the category of sufficiently smooth…
We discuss aspects of holography in the AdS_3 \times S^p near string geometry of a collection of straight fundamental heterotic strings. We use anomalies and symmetries to determine general features of the dual CFT. The symmetries suggest…
We show that each classical pseudoriemann symmetric space G/H can be realized as space of pairs of complementary subspaces in a linear space. For each classical symmetric space we construct an open embedding to a grassmannian or to a…
Following Laumon [10], to a nonramified $\ell$-adic local system $E$ of rank $n$ on a curve $X$ one associates a complex of $\ell$-adic sheaves $_n{\cal K}_E$ on the moduli stack of rank $n$ vector bundles on $X$ with a section, which is…
We consider a bosonic string propagating in 4--dim Minkowski space. We show that in the orthonormal gauge the classical system exhibits a hidden $W_{\infty}$ chiral symmetry, arising from the equivalence of its transverse modes with the…
The global geometric Langlands correspondence relates Hecke eigensheaves on the moduli stack of G-bundles on a smooth projective algebraic curve X and holomorphic G'-bundles with connection on X, where G' is the Langlands dual group of G.…
The Hilbert space of level $q$ Chern-Simons theory of gauge group $G$ of the ADE type quantized on $T^2$ can be represented by points that lie on the weight lattice of the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ up to some discrete identifications. Of…
We obtain an explicit classification of all $2\times 2$ real hypergeometric Bochner pairs, ie. pairs $(W(x),\mathfrak{D})$ consisting of a $2\times 2$ real hypergeometric differential operator $\mathfrak{D}$ and a $2\times 2$ weight matrix…
Let $G$ be a finite group, $H \le G$ a subgroup, $R$ a commutative ring, $A$ an $R$-algebra, and $\alpha$ an action of $G$ on $A$ by $R$-algebra automorphisms. We study the associated \emph{skew Hecke algebra}…

For every Hecke C*-algebra of right-angled, hyperbolic type, we construct a smooth subalgebra to which traces associated with arbitrary conjugacy classes in the associated Coxeter group extend. We calculate the pairing with K-theory of the…
In Part I, we extend our analysis in [arXiv:0807.1107], and show that a mathematically conjectured geometric Langlands duality for complex surfaces in [1], and its generalizations -- which relate some cohomology of the moduli space of…
It has been known that D=5 simple supergravity resembles D=11 supergravity in many respects. We present their further resemblances in (1) the duality groups upon dimensional reduction, and (2) the worldsheet structure of the solitonic…
