Open sets and compact saturated sets enjoy a perfect formal symmetry, at least for classes of spaces such as Stone spaces or spectral spaces. For larger classes of spaces, a perfect symmetry may not be available, although strong signs of it…
This is a survey of the inverse spectral problem on (mainly compact) Riemannian manifolds, with or without boundary. The emphasis is on wave invariants: on how wave invariants have been calculated and how they have been applied to concrete…
We establish a duality within the spectral sequence that governs the holomorphic double fibration transform. It has immediate application to the questions of injectivity and range characterization for this transform. We discuss some key…
We introduce the notions of multiplier C*-category and continuous bundle of C*-categories, as the categorical analogues of the corresponding C*-algebraic notions. Every symmetric tensor C*-category with conjugates is a continuous bundle of…
A vector field E on an F-manifold (M, o, e) is an eventual identity if it is invertible and the multiplication X*Y := X o Y o E^{-1} defines a new F-manifold structure on M. We give a characterization of such eventual identities, this being…
We survey work by the author and Ralf Meyer on equivariant KK-theory. Duality plays a key role in our approach. We organize the survey around the objective of computing a certain homotopy-invariant of a space equipped with a proper action…
A submanifold of a Riemannian symmetric space is called parallel if its second fundamental form is a parallel section of the appropriate tensor bundle. We classify parallel submanifolds of the Grassmannian $\rmG^+_2(\R^{n+2})$ which…
We determine the spectrum of the sub-Laplacian on pseudo H-type nilmanifolds and present pairs of isospectral but non-diffeomorphic nilmanifolds with respect to the sub-Laplacian. We observe that these pairs are also isospectral with…
We investigate the notion of subsystem in the framework of spectral triple as a generalized notion of noncommutative submanifold. In the case of manifolds, we consider several conditions on Dirac operators which turn embedded submanifolds…
In a previous paper, we have shown that the geometry of double field theory has a natural interpretation on flat para-K\"ahler manifolds. In this paper, we show that the same geometric constructions can be made on any para-Hermitian…
This paper develops a mirror symmetry theory of Spencer cohomology within the geometric framework of constrained systems on principal bundles, revealing deep symmetric structures in constraint geometry. Based on compatible pairs…
Double forms are sections of the vector bundles $\Lambda^{k}T^*\mathcal{M}\otimes \Lambda^{m}T^*\mathcal{M}$, where in this work $(\mathcal{M},\mathfrak{g})$ is a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. We study graded second-order…
We discover a class of projective self-dual algebraic varieties. Namely, we consider actions of isotropy groups of complex symmetric spaces on the projectivized nilpotent varieties of isotropy modules. For them, we classify all orbit…
It is a classic result in modal logic that the category of modal algebras is dually equivalent to the category of descriptive frames. The latter are Kripke frames equipped with a Stone topology such that the binary relation is continuous.…
In this expository article we give a categorical definition of the integral cohomology ring of a stack. We show that for quotient stacks the categorical cohomology may be identified with equivariant cohomology. Via this identification we…
We study the geometry of equiclassical strata of the discriminant in the space of plane curves of a given degree, which are families of curves of given degree, genus and class (degree of the dual curve). Our main observation is that the use…
We give a geometric perspective on the algebra of Drinfeld modular forms for congruence subgroups $\Gamma\leq \GL_2(\bbF_q[T]).$ In particular, we describe an isomorphism between the section ring of a line bundle on the stacky modular curve…
Through exploring the embedded transnormal systems of codimension 1, we show the existence of a transnormal function on a connected complete Riemannian manifold requires the underlying manifold to have a vector bundle structure or a linear…
We use the mapping cone for the relative deRham cohomology of a manifold with boundary in order to show that the Chern-Gauss-Bonnet Theorem for oriented Riemannian vector bundles over such manifolds is a manifestation of Lefschetz Duality…
We prove a categorical duality between a class of abstract algebras of partial functions and a class of (small) topological categories. The algebras are the isomorphs of collections of partial functions closed under the operations of…
