In Part I of this paper we introduced the notion of the projective linking number Link(M,Z) of a compact oriented real submanifold M of dimension 2p-1 in complex projective n-space P^n with an algebraic subvariety Z of codimension p in P^n…

In this paper, we study the structure of the quantum cohomology ring of a projective hypersurface with non-positive 1st Chern class. We prove a theorem which suggests that the mirror transformation of the quantum cohomology of a projective…

The quantum deformation $CP_q(N)$ of complex projective space is discussed. Many of the features present in the case of the quantum sphere can be extended. The differential and integral calculus is studied and $CP_q(N)$ appears as a quantum…

In this paper, we attempt to determine the quantum cohomology of projective bundles over the projective space P^n. In contrast to the previous examples, the relevant moduli spaces in our case frequently do not have expected dimensions. It…

This is a survey of the theory of complex projective (CP^1) structures on compact surfaces. After some preliminary discussion and definitions, we concentrate on three main topics: (1) Using the Schwarzian derivative to parameterize the…

We give some general results on proper-biharmonic submanifolds of a complex space form and, in particular, of the complex projective space. These results are mainly concerned with submanifolds with constant mean curvature or parallel mean…

It is shown that a (curved) projective structure on a smooth manifold determines on the Poisson algebra of smooth, fiberwise-polynomial functions on the cotangent bundle a one-parameter family of graded star products. For a particular value…

We give sharp lower bounds for the postulation of the nodes of a general plane projection of a smooth connected curve C in P^r and we study the relationships with the geometry of the embedding. Strict connections with Castelnuovo's theory…

We consider the equivariant quantum differential equation for the projective space $P^{n-1}$. We prove an equivariant gamma theorem for $P^{n-1}$, which describes the asymptotics of the differential equation at its regular singular point in…

We give new proofs of the description convex hulls of space curves $\gamma : [a,b] \mapsto \mathbb{R}^{d}$ having totally positive torsion. These are curves such that all the leading principal minors of $d\times d$ matrix $(\gamma',…

The purpose of this note is to show that a connection with closed skewsymmetric torsion and reducible holonomy admits a locally defined Riemannian submersion together with a projected geometry on the base. We reframe known submersion…

This paper continues a geometric study of Harvey's Complex of Curves, whose ultimate goal is to apply the theory of hyperbolic spaces and groups to algorithmic questions for the Mapping Class Group and geometric properties of Kleinian…

We develop a new framework for noncommutative differential geometry based on double derivations. This leads to the notion of moment map and of Hamiltonian reduction in noncommutative symplectic geometry. For any smooth associative algebra…

In the Hamiltonian approach on a single spatial plaquette, we construct a quantum (lattice) gauge theory which incorporates the classical singularities. The reduced phase space is a stratified K\"ahler space, and we make explicit the…

We prove that two closed subsets of complex space $\C^n$ with corresponding complex homothetic sections (projections) are complex homothetic. The proof uses a new Helly-type theorem for cosets of closed subgroups of $\S ^1$.
