A nonzero element x in a Lie algebra g over a field F with Lie product [ , ] is called a extremal element if [x, [x, g]] is contained in Fx. Long root elements in classical Lie algebras are examples of extremal elements. Arjeh Cohen et al.…

In this paper we define a new state sum based on the regions defined by tangles on a surface which is an oriented closed surface with a finite number of open holes drilled. From this state sum we obtain an invariant of regular isotopy for…

Tensor product of irreducible modules of highest weight over a semi-simple quantum group is semi-simple if and only if a natural contravariant form is non-degenerate when restricted to the span of singular vectors. We express this…

The study of extremal properties of the spectrum often involves restricting the metrics under consideration. Motivated by the work of Abreu and Freitas in the case of the sphere $S^2$ endowed with $S^1$-invariant metrics, we consider the…

Let $\Gamma=\Gamma(A)$ denote a simple strongly connected digraph with vertex set $X$, diameter $D$, and let $\{A_0,A:=A_1,A_2,\ldots,A_D\}$ denote the set of distance-$i$ matrices of $\Gamma$. Let $\{R_i\}_{i=0}^D$ denote a partition of…

Let $R$ be commutative Noetherian ring and let $\fa$ be an ideal of $R$. For complexes $X$ and $Y$ of $R$--modules we investigate the invariant $\inf{\mathbf R}\Gamma_{\fa}({\mathbf R}\Hom_R(X,Y))$ in certain cases. It is shown that, for…

We assign to a finite $CW$-complex and an element in its first cohomology group a twisted version of the $L^2$-Euler characteristic and study its main properties. In the case of an irreducible orientable $3$-manifold with empty or toroidal…

We examine the extremal rays of the cone of dominant weights $(\mu, \widehat\mu)$ for groups $G\subseteq \widehat G$ for which there exists $N \gg0$ such that $$ \left(V(N\mu)\otimes V(N\widehat \mu)\right)^G\ne (0). $$ We exhibit formulas…

We define K-stability of a polarized Sasakian manifold relative to a maximal torus of automorphisms. The existence of a Sasaki-extremal metric in the polarization is shown to imply that the polarization is K-semistable. Computing this…

Let $X\rightarrow Y$ be a Galois cover with Galois group $\Gamma$, where $X$ and $Y$ are smooth complex projective curve of genus $\geqslant 2$. In this paper, we study the moduli spaces of semistable $\Gamma-$invariant vector bundles on…

A threefold extremal transition $Y \searrow X$ consists of a crepant extremal contraction $\phi \colon Y \to \bar Y$ with curve class $\ell \in \operatorname{NE}(Y)$, followed by a smoothing $\bar Y\rightsquigarrow X$. We consider the Type…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a bipartite distance-regular graph with diameter $D \ge 4$ and valency $k \ge 3$. Let $X$ denote the vertex set of $\Gamma$, and let $A$ denote the adjacency matrix of $\Gamma$. For $x \in X$ let $T=T(x)$ denote the…

For a finitely presented discrete group $\Gamma$, we introduce two generalizations of the orbifold Euler characteristic and $\Gamma$-orbifold Euler characteristic to a class of proper topological groupoids large enough to include all…

We give a $K$-theoretic criterion for a quasi-projective variety to be smooth. If $\mathbb{L}$ is a line bundle corresponding to an ample invertible sheaf on $X$, it suffices that $K_q(X) = K_q(\mathbb{L})$ for all $q\le\dim(X)+1$.

Let $X$ be a smooth projective manifold with $\dim_\mathbb{C} X=n$. We show that if a line bundle $L$ is $(n-1)$-ample, then it is $(n-1)$-positive. This is a partial converse to the Andreotti-Grauert theorem. As an application, we show…

For any algebraic super-manifold M we define the super-ind-scheme LM of formal loops and study the transgression map (Radon transform) on differential forms in this context. Applying this to the super-manifold M=SX, the spectrum of the de…

Let $X$ be an irreducible smooth complex projective variety. Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over $\mathbb{C}$. We define the notion of Lie algebroid valued connection on holomorphic principal $G$--bundles on $X$, and study their basic…

In this paper, we revisit the A-twisted gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) whose geometric phases are complex K\"ahler supermanifolds. For abelian models without superpotentials we propose an explicit orbifold description of the…

Let $G$ be a group. The permutability graph of subgroups of $G$, denoted by $\Gamma(G)$, is a graph having all the proper subgroups of $G$ as its vertices, and two subgroups are adjacent in $\Gamma(G)$ if and only if they permute. In this…

Let L >= 3. Using the moduli interpretation, we define certain elliptic modular forms of level Gamma(L) over any field k where 6L is invertible and k contains the Lth roots of unity. These forms generate a graded algebra R_L, which, over C,…
