This paper focuses on the interplay between the intersection theory and the Teichmueller dynamics on the moduli space of curves. As applications, we study the cycle class of strata of the Hodge bundle, present an algebraic method to…

This paper presents the theory of holomorphic vector valued modular forms from a geometric perspective. More precisely, we define certain holomorphic vector bundles on the modular orbifold of generalized elliptic curves whose sections are…

Modular graph functions are $SL(2,{\mathbb Z})$-invariant functions associated with Feynman graphs of a two-dimensional conformal field theory on a torus of modulus $\tau$. For one-loop graphs they reduce to real analytic Eisenstein series.…

We introduce a new family of tautological relations of the moduli space of stable curves of genus $g$. These relations are obtained by computing the Poincar\'e-dual class of empty loci in the Hodge bundle. We use these relations to obtain a…

A symbolic calculus for a pseudo-differential operators acting on sections of a homogeneous vector bundle over a compact homogeneous space $G/H$ with compact $G$ and $H$ is developed. We realize the symbol of a pseudo-differential operator…

We show that the stringy K\"ahler moduli space of a generic genus one curve of degree $N$, for $N\le 5$, is the $\Gamma_1(N)$ modular curve $X_1(N)$. This implies a correspondence between the cusps of the modular curves and certain large…

We give a differential geometric construction of the holomorphic family of Higgs bundle moduli spaces over a curve C as a fibration over Teichm\"uller space. The method uses a function f defined on the character variety, essentially the…

In this paper we give an exposition of Dennis Johnson's work on the first homology of the Torelli groups and show how it can be applied, alone and in concert with Saito's theory of Hodge modules, to study the geometry of moduli spaces of…

We study the Lyapunov spectrum of the Kontsevich--Zorich cocycle on $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-invariant subbundles of the Hodge bundle over the support of a $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-invariant probability measure on the moduli space of Abelian…

We classify the possible closures of leaves of the isoperiodic foliation (sometimes called absolute period foliation) defined on the Hodge bundle, i.e. the moduli space of abelian differentials over genus $g\geq 2$ smooth curves, and prove…

We classify curves in the moduli space of curves that are both Shimura- and Teichmueller curves: Except for the moduli space of genus one curves there is only a single such curve. We start with a Hodge-theoretic description of Shimura…

We define tautological Chow classes on the moduli space of curves with linear series. In the case where the forgetful morphism to the moduli space of curves has relative dimension zero, we describe the images of these classes in the Chow…

For any arbitrary algebraic curve, we define an infinite sequence of invariants. We study their properties, in particular their variation under a variation of the curve, and their modular properties. We also study their limits when the…

Using the Weil-Brezin-Zak transform of solid state physics, we describe line bundles over elliptic curves in terms of Weyl operators. We then discuss the connection with finitely-generated projective modules over the algebra $A_\theta$ of…

We consider $\mathbb{R}^3$ as a homogeneous manifold for the action of the motion group given by rotations and translations. For an arbitrary $\tau\in \widehat{SO(3)}$, let $E_\tau$ be the homogeneous vector bundle over $\mathbb{R}^3$…

We study families of quantum field theories of free bosons on a compact Riemann surface of genus g. For the case g > 0 these theories are parameterized by holomorphic line bundles of degree g-1, and for the case g=0 - by smooth closed…

A holomorphic chain on a compact Riemann surface is a tuple of vector bundles together with homomorphisms between them. We show that the moduli space of holomorphic chains of rank one is identified with a fiber product of projective space…

In this paper, it is proved that the Hodge metric completion of the moduli space of polarized and marked Calabi-Yau manifolds, i.e. the Torelli space, is a complex affine manifold. As applications we prove that the period map from the…

We discuss the twistor correspondence between complex vector bundles over a self-dual four-dimensional manifold and holomorphic bundles over its twistor space and describe the moduli space of self-dual Yang-Mills fields in terms of Cech and…

Conformal field theory and its axiomatisation in terms of vertex operator algebras or chiral algebras are most commonly considered on the Riemann sphere. However, an important constraint in physics and an interesting source of mathematics…
