We introduce a certain compactification of the space of projective configurations i.e. orbits of the group $PGL(k)$ on the space of $n$ - tuples of points in $P^{k-1}$ in general position. This compactification differs considerably from…

We introduce geometric quantization for constant rank presymplectic structures with Riemannian null foliation and compact leaf closure space. We prove a quantization-commutes-with-reduction theorem in this context. Examples related to…

Let G/H be a reductive symmetric space and K a maximal compact subgroup of G. We study Fourier transforms of compactly supported K-finite distributions on G/H and characterize the image of the space of such distributions.

For a space $X$ let $\mathcal{K}(X)$ be the set of compact subsets of $X$ ordered by inclusion. A map $\phi:\mathcal{K}(X) \to \mathcal{K}(Y)$ is a relative Tukey quotient if it carries compact covers to compact covers. When there is such a…

Let $G_k$ be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field $k$ of char $\neq 2$. Let $\theta_k$ be an algebraic group involution of $G_k$ and denote the fixed point subgroup by $K_k$. We construct an integral model for the…

We show that for every symmetric space G/K of compact type with K connected, the K-action on G/K by left translations is equivariantly formal.

We study the pure compact U(1) gauge theory with the extended Wilson action (\beta, \gamma couplings) by finite size scaling techniques, in lattices ranging from L=6 to L=24 in the region of \gamma <= 0 with toroidal and spherical…

Given a compact symplectic toric manifold $(M,\omega, \mathbb{T})$, we identify a class $DGK_{\omega}^{\mathbb{T}}(M)$ of $\mathbb{T}$-invariant generalized K\"ahler structures for which a generalisation the Abreu-Guillemin theory of toric…

In this paper, we investigate the complexity of an infinite family of Cayley graphs $\mathcal{D}_{n}=Cay(\mathbb{D}_{n}, b^{\pm\beta_1},b^{\pm\beta_2},\ldots,b^{\pm\beta_s}, a b^{\gamma_1}, a b^{\gamma_2},\ldots, a b^{\gamma_t} )$ on the…

Let $E\to B$ be a complex analytic fiber bundle with fiber $F$, a flag variety over a compact complex manifold $B$. We shall obtain a description of the cohomology of $E$ when $B=X_\Gamma:=\Gamma\backslash X, E=Y_\Gamma:=\Gamma\backslash Y$…

We present some observations on a restricted variant of unitary Cayley graphs modulo n, and the implications for a decomposition of elements of symplectic operators over the integers modulo n. We define quadratic unitary Cayley graphs G_n,…

Let $(Z,\omega)$ be a \Keler manifold and let $U$ be a compact connected Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{u}$ acting on $Z$ and preserving $\omega$. We assume that the $U$-action extends holomorphically to an action of the complexified…

This paper has two purposes. The first is to classify all those versions of the Toda equations which govern the existence of $\tau$-primitive harmonic maps from a surface into a homogeneous space $G/T$ for which $G$ is a noncomplex…

For a flag manifold $M=G/B$ with the canonical torus action, the $T-$equivariant cohomology is generated by equivariant Schubert classes, with one class $\tau_u$ for every element $u$ of the Weyl group $W$. These classes are determined by…

Let M be a coadjoint semisimple orbit of a simple Lie group G. Let $U_h(\g)$ be a quantum group corresponding to G. We construct a universal family of $U_h(\g)$ invariant quantizations of the sheaf of functions on M and describe all such…

The various types of compactifications of symmetric spaces and locally symmetric spaces are well-studied. Among them, the De Concini-Procesi compactification, also known as the wonderful compactification, of symmetric varieties has been…

Let G be a finite dimensional simple complex group equipped with the standard Poisson Lie group structure. We show that all G-homogeneous (holomorphic) Poisson structures on $G/H$, where $H \subset G$ is a Cartan subgroup, come from…

We use filtrations of the Grassmannian model to produce explicit algebraic formulae for all harmonic maps of finite uniton number from a Riemann surface, and so all harmonic maps from the 2-sphere, to the unitary group for a general class…

Bachmann, Takeyama and Tasaka introduced a $\mathbb{Q}$-linear map $\phi$, which we call the symmetrization map in this paper, on the harmonic algebra $\mathfrak{H}^1$. They calculated $\phi(w)$ explicitly for an element $w$ in…

We explain the observation by Candelas and Font that the Dynkin diagrams of nonabelian gauge groups occurring in type IIA and F-theory can be read off from the polyhedron $\Delta^*$ that provides the toric description of the Calabi-Yau…
