An affine vertex operator construction at arbitrary level is presented which is based on a completely compactified chiral bosonic string whose momentum lattice is taken to be the (Minkowskian) affine weight lattice. This construction is…
Let $g$ be a complex semisimple Lie algebra with Weyl group $W$. Let $H(W)$ be the Iwahori-Hecke algebra associated to $W$. For each $w\in W$, let $T_w$ and $C_w$ be the corresponding $Z$-graded twisting functor and $Z$-graded shuffling…
We consider two different physical systems for which the basis of the Hilbert space can be parametrized by Young diagrams: free complex fermions and the phase model of strongly correlated bosons. Both systems have natural, well-known…
We study some of the novel properties of conformal field theories with noncompact target spaces as applied to string theory. Standard CFT results get corrected by boundary terms in the target space in a way consistent with the expected…
We study the polyregular string-to-string functions, which are certain functions of polynomial output size that can be described using automata and logic. We describe a system of combinators that generates exactly these functions. Unlike…
To describe longitudinal fine structure like microbunching within a particle beam, a classical approach is to define a bunching factor which is the Fourier transform of the particle longitudinal density distribution. Such a 1D definition of…
In this paper, we introduce a new induction functor $\mathrm{Ind}^V_U$ between module categories corresponding to an embedding of vertex operator algebras (VOAs) $U \hookrightarrow V$. This induction functor is essentially defined at the…
We study the string topology of a closed oriented Riemannian manifold M. We describe a compact moduli space of diagrams, and show how the cellular chain complex of this space gives algebraic operations on the singular chains of the free…
Let $\Phi:V\to V\otimes U$ be an intertwining operator between representations of a simple Lie algebra (quantum group, affine Lie algebra). We define its generalized character to be the following function on the Cartan subalgebra with…
With the aim of providing a worldsheet description of the refined topological string, we continue the study of a particular class of higher derivative couplings $F_{g,n}$ in the type II string effective action compactified on a Calabi-Yau…
Our work proposes a novel approach to designing activation functions by focusing on their gradients and deriving the corresponding activation functions using integration. We introduce the Expanded Integral of the Exponential Linear Unit…
Determining the explicit forms and modularity for string functions and branching coefficients for Kac--Moody algebras after Kac, Peterson, and Wakimoto is a long-standing, yet wide-open, problem and recently a connection has been made…
We consider integrable open chain models formulated in terms of generators of affine Hecke algebras. The hierarchy of commutative elements (which are analogs of the commutative transfer-matrices) are constructed by using the fusion…
We study string compactifications with sixteen supersymmetries. The moduli space for these compactifications becomes quite intricate in lower dimensions, partly because there are many different irreducible components. We focus primarily,…
For any finite group G with a finite G-set X and a modular tensor category C we construct a part of the algebraic structure of an associated G-equivariant monoidal category: For any group element g in G we exhibit the module category…
We consider the type IIA string compactified on the Calabi-Yau space given by a degree 12 hypersurface in the weighted projective space ${\bf P}^4_{(1, 1, 2,2, 6)}$. We express the prepotential of the low-energy effective supergravity…
We consider the refined $\mathrm{SU}(r)$ Vafa-Witten partition function of a smooth projective surface with non-zero holomorphic 2-form. This partition function has a vertical contribution, expressible in terms of nested Hilbert schemes.…
The study of the partition function in M-theory involves the use of index theory on a twelve-dimensional bounding manifold. In eleven dimensions, viewed as a boundary, this is given by secondary index invariants such as the…
The integrable structure of open--closed string theories in the $(p,q)$ conformal minimal model backgrounds is presented. The relation between the $\tau$--function of the closed string theory and that of the open--closed string theory is…
The notions of faithfully projective, faithfully flat, and faithfully injective modules--defined as modules for which the three classical homological functors are both faithful and exact--play fundamental roles across various areas of…
