We present a complete quantization of an approximately homogeneous and isotropic universe with small scalar perturbations. We consider the case in which the matter content is a minimally coupled scalar field and the spatial sections are…
We show how the modular symmetries that have been found to be consistent with most available scaling data from quantum Hall systems, derive from a rigid family of algebraic curves of the elliptic type. The complicated special functions…
Let G be a Lie goup, let M and N be smooth connected G-manifolds, let f be a smooth G-map from M to N, and let P denote the fiber of f. Given a closed and equivariantly closed relative 2-form for f with integral periods, we construct the…
We investigate quantization properties of Hermitian metrics on holomorphic vector bundles over homogeneous compact K\"ahler manifolds. This allows us to study operators on Hilbert function spaces using vector bundles in a new way. We show…
Geometric Quantization is a term used to describe a wide collection of techniques dating back to the 1960s in the work of Kirillov, Kostant, and Souriau, which take symplectic manifolds and produce complex vector spaces. The name comes from…
We develop some results on the positivity of direct image bundles in the particular case of a trivial fibration over a one-dimensional base. We also apply the results to study variations of Kahler metrics.
We introduce a geometric partial differential equation for families of holomorphic vector bundles, generalising the theory of Hermite--Einstein metrics. We consider families of holomorphic vector bundles which each admit Hermite--Einstein…
In this paper we first show that on projective manifolds (M, {\omega}), there are holomorphic determinant bundles (in the sense of Knusden-Mumford used by Bismut, Gillet, Soule) which play the role of the geometric quantum bundle, namely…
This work is a contribution to the area of Strict Quantization (in the sense of Rieffel) in the presence of curvature and non-Abelian group actions. More precisely, we use geometry to obtain explicit oscillatory integral formulae for…
We consider a holomorphic family $f:\mathcal{X} \to S$ of compact complex manifolds and a line bundle $\mathcal{L}\to \mathcal{X}$. Given that $\mathcal{L}^{-1}$ carries a singular hermitian metric that has Poincar\'e type singularities…
We construct the Hilbert compactification of the universal moduli space of semistable vector bundles over smooth curves. The Hilbert compactification is the GIT quotient of some open part of an appropriate Hilbert scheme of curves in a…
Let L be an ample holomorphic line bundle over a compact complex Hermitian manifold X. Any fixed smooth Hermitian metric on L induces a Hilbert space structure on the space of global holomorphic sections with values in the k:th tensor power…
Hermite reciprocity refers to a series of natural isomorphisms involving compositions of symmetric, exterior, and divided powers of the standard $SL_2$-representation. We survey several equivalent constructions of these isomorphisms, as…
Given a compact hyperkaehler manifold $M$ and a holomorphic bundle B over $M$, we consider a Hermitian connection $\nabla$ on B which is compatible with all complex structures on $M$ induced by the hyperkaehler structure. Such a connection…
We give a differential geometric construction of a connection in the bundle of quantum Hilbert spaces arising from half-form corrected geometric quantization of a prequantizable, symplectic manifold, endowed with a rigid, family of K\"ahler…
We propose a new systematic fibre bundle formulation of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics. The new form of the theory is equivalent to the usual one and is in harmony with the modern trends in theoretical physics and potentially admits new…
We study the hypersymplectic geometry of the moduli space of solutions to Hitchin's harmonic map equations on a $G$-bundle. This is the split-signature analogue of Hitchin's Higgs bundle moduli space. Due to the lack of definiteness, this…
Let $\mathcal{M}_{n,d}$ be the moduli space of semi-stable rank $n$, trace-free Higgs bundles with fixed determinant of degree $d$ on a Riemann surface of genus at least $3$. We determine the following automorphism groups of…
We study closures of GL_2(R)-orbits on the total space of the Hodge bundle over the moduli space of curves under the assumption that they are algebraic manifolds. We show that, in the generic stratum, such manifolds are the whole stratum,…
Let $\pi:\mathcal{X}\to M$ be a holomorphic fibration with compact fibers and $L$ a relatively ample line bundle over $\mathcal{X}$. We obtain the asymptotic of the curvature of $L^2$-metric and Qullien metric on the direct image bundle…
