In this contribution to the proceedings of the 11th Mathematical Society of Japan (MSJ) Seasonal Institute (July 2018) we give an overview of some recent work on a mathematical model for small deformations of a spherical membrane. The idea…
We adapt a construction taken from `L. Motto Ros and B. Semmes, A new proof of a theorem of Jayne and Rogers, Real Anal. Exchange 35(1) (2009/2010), 195-204' in order to correct a mistake contained in the first part of the same paper. As a…
In this paper we consider non-anticommutative field theories in $\mathcal{N} =2$ superspace formalism on three-dimensional manifolds with a boundary. We modify the original Lagrangian in such a way that it preserves half the supersymmetry…
We consider a generalization of Calabi-Yau structures in the context of $\alpha$-Sasakian manifolds. We study deformations of a special class of Legendrian submanifolds and classify invariant contact Calabi-Yau structures on 5-dimensional…
The content of this preprint together with additional material appears now in 0706.2154.
We study perturbations of linear differential equations, deriving explicit series solutions, using Dyson-type expansions. We analyze the monodromy of deformed solutions in a number of examples, and relate this to cocycles in a cohomological…
We study quantum corrections to hypersurfaces of dimension $d+1>2$ embedded in generic higher-dimensional spacetimes. Manifest covariance is maintained throughout the analysis and our methods are valid for arbitrary co-dimension and…
In an earlier paper, we proved that, under certain hypotheses, the moduli space of an asymptotically cylindrical special Lagrangian submanifold with fixed boundary of an asymptotically cylindrical Calabi-Yau 3-fold is a smooth manifold.…
We generate new AdS_4 solutions of D=11 supergravity starting from AdS_4 x X_7 solutions where X_7 has U(1)^3 isometry. We consider examples where X_7 is weak G_2, Sasaki-Einstein or tri-Sasakian, corresponding to d=3 SCFTs with N=1,2 or 3…
In this paper, we shed new light onto $T\bar{T}$-deformations by engineering them on 2D surface defects, supporting chiral and antichiral CFT's, in a 4D Chern-Simons bulk. This approach is motivated by various connections between…
The revised version has two additional references and a shorter proof of Proposition 5.7. This version also makes numerous small changes and has an appendix containing a proof of the degree formula for a parametrized surface.
We introduce the notion of microlocal versal deformation of a plane curve. We construct equisingular versal deformations of Legendrian curves that are the conormal of a semi-quasi-homogeneous branch.
This paper originated as an appendix to the paper "Topology and Geometry of the Berkovich Ramification Locus for Rational Functions, II" by Xander Faber arXiv:1104.0943v2 [math.NT]. It may however be read independently. We prove a variant…
This paper has been withdrawn by the author, due to an error in relation (11).
This appendix for our article, "Almost-rainbow edge-colorings of some small subgraphs", contains the full proof of Theorem 4.1.
In two former papers, the authors independently proved that the space of hyperbolic cone-3-manifolds with cone angles less than 2{\pi} and fixed singular locus is locally parametrized by the cone angles. In this sequel, we investigate the…
We have one more look at the (homological) perturbation lemma and we point out some non-standard consequences, including the relevance to deformations.
This note serves to provide additional details for the proof of Lemma 3.6 in our paper [Liu, Zhang and Zhang, Comm. Math. Sci., 3(2005), pp.201-218]. Moreover, we will also present an alternative, yet simpler, proof based on arguments in…
We revisit the sharp Sobolev inequalities involving boundary terms on Riemannian manifolds with boundaries proved by \emph{[Y.Y. Li and M. Zhu, Geom. Funct. Anal. \textbf{8} (1998), 59--87.]} and explore the role of the mean curvature.
We present precision corrections to dispersion relation bounds on form factors in bottom hadron semileptonic decays and analyze their effects on parameterizations derived from these bounds. We incorporate QCD two-loop and nonperturbative…
