Given a smooth curve $C$, we define and study analogues of KLR algebras and quiver Schur algebras, where quiver representations are replaced by torsion sheaves on $C$. In particular, they provide a geometric realization for certain…
Let $R$ be a valuation ring with fraction field $K$ and $2\in R^\times$. We give an elementary proof of the following known result: Two unimodular quadratic forms over $R$ are isometric over $K$ if and only if they are isometric over $R$.…
This paper is devoted to a study of $S$-curves, that is systems of curves in the complex plane whose equilibrium potential in a harmonic external field satisfies a special symmetry property ($S$-property). Such curves have many…
Extended quantum mechanics using non-Hermitian, pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians is briefly reviewed. Supersymmetric regularizations, solvable simulations and large-N expansion techniques are recollected as suitable means for the study of…
In (Nucci M.C. 1994, Physica D 78 p.124), we have found that iterations of the nonclassical symmetries method give rise to new nonlinear equations, which inherit the Lie point symmetry algebra of the given equation. In the present paper, we…

We consider a realization of fractional supersymmetric of quantum mechanics of order $r$, where the Hamiltonian and supercharges involve reflection operators. It is shown that the Hamiltonian has $r$-fold degenerate spectrum and the…

In this paper, we construct the q-analogue of Poirier-Reutenauer algebras, related deeply with other q-combinatorial Hopf algebras. As an application, we use them to realize the odd Schur functions defined in \cite{EK}, and naturally obtain…
Let HN denote the problem of determining whether a system of multivariate polynomials with integer coefficients has a complex root. It has long been known that HN in P implies P=NP and, thanks to recent work of Koiran, it is now known that…
In this paper, we study equivalences between the categories of quasi-coherent sheaves on non-commutative noetherian schemes. In particular, give a new proof of Caldararu's conjecture about Morita equivalences of Azumaya algebras on…
In this paper, we study the theory of geodesics with respect to the Tanaka-Webster connection in a pseudo-Hermitian manifold, aiming to generalize some comparison results in Riemannian geometry to the case of pseudo-Hermitian geometry. Some…
The characteristic anti-linear (parity/time reversal, PT) symmetry of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians with real energies is presented as a source of two new forms of solvability of Schr\"{o}dinger's bound-state problems. In detail we describe…
A review is given on the foundations and applications of non-Hermitian classical and quantum physics. First, key theorems and central concepts in non-Hermitian linear algebra, including Jordan normal form, biorthogonality, exceptional…
A class of non-Hermitian quadratic su(2) Hamiltonians having an anti-linear symmetry is constructed. This is achieved by analysing the possible symmetries of such systems in terms of automorphisms of the algebra. In fact, different…
We prove elementary recursive bounds in the degrees for Positivstellensatz and Hilbert 17-th problem, which is the expression of a nonnegative polynomial as a sum of squares of rational functions. We obtain a tower of five exponentials. A…
We prove some positivity results on the coefficients in the complexified Hilbert polynomial of a semi-stable object. After applying these results on the classical slope stability conditions, we get sequences of quadratic inequalities for…

We study the holonomy that is associated to a sub-Riemannian structure defined on the kernel of a global contact form. This includes the holonomy of Schouten's horizontal connection as well as of the adapted connection, both canonical…
In quantum many-body systems with kinetically constrained dynamics, the Hilbert space can split into exponentially many disconnected subsectors, a phenomenon known as Hilbert-space fragmentation. We study the interplay of such fragmentation…
