Given an ideal of forms in an algebra (polynomial ring, tensor algebra, exterior algebra, Lie algebra, bigraded polynomial ring), we consider the Hilbert series of the factor ring. We concentrate on the minimal Hilbert series, which is…

Some connections between quadratic forms over the field of two elements, Clifford algebras of quadratic forms over the real numbers, real graded division algebras, and twisted group algebras will be highlighted. This allows to revisit real…

Boundary value problems for a class of quasilinear elliptic equations, with an Orlicz type growth and L^1 right-hand side are considered. Both Dirichlet and Neumann problems are contemplated. Existence and uniqueness of generalized…

A representation of finite-dimensional probabilistic models in terms of formally real Jordan algebras is obtained, in a strikingly easy way, from simple assumptions. This provides a framework in which real, complex and quaternionic quantum…

This is (mostly) a survey article. We use an information about Galois properties of points of small order on an abelian variety in order to describe its endomorphism algebra over an algebraic closure of the ground field. We discuss in…

We compute the elliptic genera of two-dimensional N=(2,2) and N=(0,2) gauged linear sigma models via supersymmetric localization, for rank-one gauge groups. The elliptic genus is expressed as a sum over residues of a meromorphic function…

: Algebraic properties of orbifold models on arbitrary Riemann surfaces are investigated. The action of mapping class group transformations and of standard geometric operations is given explicitly. An infinite dimensional extension of the…

We define the geometric simpleness for toroidal groups. We give an example of quasi-abelian variety which is geometrically simple, but not simple. We show that any quasi-abelian variety is isogenous to a product of geometrically simple…

Several independent articles have observed that the Hirzebruch $\chi_y$-genus has an important feature, which the author calls -1-phenomenon and tells us that the coefficients of the Taylor expansion of the $\chi_y$-genus at $y=-1$ have…

We define the singular elliptic genus for arbitrary normal surfaces, prove that it is a birational invariant, and show that it generalizes the singular elliptic genus of Borisov and Libgober and the stringy $\chi_y$ genus of Batyrev and…

Following Petersson, we study the parabolic, hyperbolic and elliptic expansions of holomorphic cusp forms and the associated Poincar\'e series. We show how these ideas extend to the space of second-order cusp forms.

In this paper, we investigate properties of classes of functions related to certain elliptic operators. Firstly, we prove that a main result of Dyakonov (Acta Math. 178(1997), 143--167) on analytic functions can be extended to this more…

The article presents four reasons why the elliptic genus is the most general characteristic class that admits a generalization to singular spaces. We prove that the elliptic characteristic class (with an additional factor) is essentially…

In this paper, we analyze multi-dimensional Besicovitch almost periodic type functions. We clarify the main structural properties for the introduced classes of Besicovitch almost periodic type functions, explore the notion of…

We define a projective variant of classical complex orientation theory. Using this, we construct a map of spectra which lifts the total Chern class, providing an alternative answer to an old question of Segal \cite{segal}, previously…

Let $L$ be the language of rings. We provide an axiomatization of the $L$-theories of quaternions and octonions and characterize their models: they coincide, up to isomorphism, with quaternion and octonion algebras over a real closed field,…

For a class of non-hyperelliptic genus 3 curves C which are 2-fold coverings of elliptic curves E, we give an explicit algebraic description of all birationally non-equivalent genus 2 curves whose Jacobians are degree 2 isogeneous to the…

We conjecture a formula for the virtual elliptic genera of moduli spaces of rank 2 sheaves on minimal surfaces $S$ of general type. We express our conjecture in terms of the Igusa cusp form $\chi_{10}$ and Borcherds type lifts of three…

In this paper we derive topological and number theoretical consequences of the rigidity of elliptic genera, which are special modular forms associated to each compact almost complex manifold. In particular, on the geometry side, we prove…

This work is dedicated to a new completely algebraic approach to Arakelov geometry, which doesn't require the variety under consideration to be generically smooth or projective. In order to construct such an approach we develop a theory of…
