An explicit classification of simply connected compact homogeneous CR manifolds G/L of codimension one, with non-degenerate Levi form, is given. There are three classes of such manifolds: a) the standard CR homogeneous manifolds which are…

We present an approach that gives rigorous construction of a class of crossing invariant functions in $c=1$ CFTs from the weakly invariant distributions on the moduli space $\mathcal M_{0,4}^{SL(2,\mathbb{C})}$ of $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ flat…

Let M^3 be a closed CR 3-manifold. In this paper we derive a Bochner formula for the Kohn Laplacian in which the pseudo-hermitian torsion plays no role. By means of this formula we show that the non-zero eigenvalues of the Kohn Laplacian…

In this companion paper to our article {\em Accidental CR structures} (arxiv.org, January 2023), thought of as an appendix not submitted for publication, we provide complete explicit lists of infinitesimal CR automorphisms for the concerned…

This thesis investigates parametrized quantum spin systems in the thermodynamic limit from a $C^*$-algebraic point of view. Our main physical result is the construction of a phase invariant for one-dimensional quantum spin chains…

A fundamental problem from invariant theory is to describe the endomorphism algebra of multilinear functions on a representation V invariant under the action of a group G. According to Weyl's classic, a first main (later: fundamental)…

In combinatorial topology we aim to triangulate manifolds such that their topological properties are reflected in the combinatorial structure of their description. Here, we give a combinatorial criterion on when exactly triangulations of…

In this paper, we apply the theory of Chern-Cheeger-Simons to construct canonical invariants associated to a $r$-simplex whose points parametrize flat connections on a smooth manifold $X$. These invariants lie in degrees…

Let M be a connected generic real-analytic CR-submanifold of a finite-dimensional complex vector space E. Suppose that for every point a in M the Lie algebra hol(M,a) of germs of all infinitesimal real-analytic CR-automorphisms of M at a is…

We prove that there are no unexpected universal integral linear relations and congruences between Hodge, Betti and Chern numbers of compact complex manifolds and determine the linear combinations of such numbers which are bimeromorphic or…

In a recent paper [1] we have constructed the spin and tensor representations of SO(4) from which the invariant weight can be derived for the Barrett-Crane model in quantum gravity. By analogy with the SO(4) group, we present the…

Given a three-manifold with b_1=1 and a nontorsion spin^c structure, we use finite dimensional approximation to construct from the Seiberg-Witten equations two invariants in the form of a periodic pro-spectra. Various functors applied to…

The twisted torsion of a 3-manifold is well-known to be zero whenever the corresponding twisted Alexander module is non-torsion. Under mild extra assumptions we introduce a new twisted torsion invariant which is always non-zero. We show how…

We prove an analogue of the Kotschick-Morgan conjecture in the context of SO(3) monopoles, obtaining a formula relating the Donaldson and Seiberg-Witten invariants of smooth four-manifolds using the SO(3)-monopole cobordism. The main…

Invariants of 3-manifolds from a non semi-simple category of modules over a version of quantum sl(2) were obtained by the last three authors in [arXiv:1404.7289]. In their construction the quantum parameter $q$ is a root of unity of order…

The model 4-dimensional CR-cubic in $\CC{3}$ has the following "model" property: it is (essentially) the unique locally homogeneous 4-dimensional CR-manifold in $\CC{3}$ with finite-dimensional infinitesimal automorphism algebra…

In this paper, we give a combinatorial formula for the \v{C}ech cocycles representing the power sums of the Chern roots of a holomorphic vector bundle over a complex manifold. By an observation motivation by author's previous paper, we also…

We construct quantum invariants of balanced sutured 3-manifolds with a $Spin^{c}$ structure out of an involutive (possibly non-unimodular) Hopf superalgebra $H$. If $H$ is the Borel subalgebra of $U_{q}(\mathfrak{gl}(1|1))$, we show that…

We establish a new approach to obtain 3-manifold invariants via Dehn surgery. For this, we introduce skew-racks with good involution and Property FR, and define cocycle invariants as 3-manifold invariants. We also define some link…

Let G be a 3-dimensional connected Lie group with a left-invariant nondegenerate CR structure. We show that all the chains on G are closed if and only if G is CR equivalent to one of the left-invariant spherical CR structures on SU(2),…
