We analyse the vector bundle moduli arising from generic heterotic compactifications from the point of view of quiver representations. Phenomena such as stability walls, crossing between chambers of supersymmetry, splitting of non-Abelian…
We compute the periods associated with a special class of hyperplane arrangements. In particular, we exhibit a combinatorial condition on the intersection lattice of a hyperplane arrangement that ensures that its associated periods are…
We present a generalization of the complete intersection in products of projective space (CICY) construction of Calabi-Yau manifolds. CICY three-folds and four-folds have been studied extensively in the physics literature. Their utility…
The periods of the three-form on a Calabi-Yau manifold are found as solutions of the Picard-Fuchs equations; however, the toric varietal method leads to a generalized hypergeometric system of equations which has more solutions than just the…
The goal of the paper is two-fold. At first, we attempt to give a survey of some recent applications of symmetric polynomials and divided differences to intersection theory. We discuss: polynomials universally supported on degeneracy loci;…
We determine the number of singularities - counted whit multiplicities - of generic distributions of dimension and codimension one on smooth complete intersections in compact toric orbifolds with isolated singularities. We also present some…
The present note is mostly a survey on the generalised Hitchin integrable system and moduli spaces of meromorphic Higgs bundles. We also fill minor gaps in the existing literature, outline a calculation of the infinitesimal period map and…
Let M be a U(1) bundle over a smooth Riemann surface. I show that for Chern-Simons theory on M, with structure group G, the path integral is an integral over the space of G-connections on the Riemann surface involving characteristic classes…
The computations that are suggested by String Theory in the B model requires the existence of degenerations of CY manifolds with maximum unipotent monodromy. In String Theory such a point in the moduli space is called a large radius limit…
The first paper of this series introduced objects (elements of twisted relative cohomology) that are Poincar\'e dual to Feynman integrals. We show how to use the pairing between these spaces -- an algebraic invariant called the intersection…
We prove a geometric formula for the cycle integrals of Parson's weight 2k modular integrals in terms of the intersection angles of geodesics on modular curves. Our result is an analog for modular integrals of a classical formula for the…
We derive a transgression formula for the renormalized Chern character of the Bismut superconnection in the context of end-periodic fiber bundles and families of end-periodic Clifford modules. The transgression is expressed in terms of the…
It is well-known that any maximal Cohen-Macaulay module over a hypersurface has a periodic free resolution of period 2. Auslander, Reiten and Buchweitz have used this periodicity to explain the existence of periodic projective resolutions…
In this paper, we derive the generalized hypergeometric functions (period integrals) used in mirror computation of Calabi-Yau hypersurface in $CP^{N-1}$ as generating functions of intersection numbers of the moduli space of quasimaps from…
Let $\cMx$ be the moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank $n\geq 3$ and determinant $\xi$ over a connected Riemann surface $X$, with $n$ and $d(\xi)$ coprime. Let $D$ be a Calabi-Yau hypersurface of $\cMx$. Denote by $U_D$ the…
We prove a generalization of the classical Poincar\'e-Lelong formula. Given a holomorphic section $f$, with zero set $Z$, of a Hermitian vector bundle $E\to X$, let $S$ be the line bundle over $X\setminus Z$ spanned by $f$ and let $Q=E/S$.…
We show that a simple piecewise-linear system with time delay and periodic forcing gives rise to a rich bifurcation structure of torus bifurcations and Arnold tongues, as well as multistability across a significant portion of the parameter…
Generalized cycles can be thought of as the extension of form-cycle duality between holomorphic forms and cycles, to meromorphic forms and generalized cycles. They appeared as an ubiquitous tool in the study of spectral curves and…
We give a simple expression for the integral of the canonical holomorphic volume form in degenerating families of varieties constructed from wall structures and with central fiber a union of toric varieties. The cycles to integrate over are…
In this article, we study mirror symmetry for pairs of singular Calabi--Yau manifolds which are double covers of toric manifolds. Their period integrals can be seen as certain `fractional' analogues of those of ordinary complete…
