The paper studies three classes of Frobenius manifolds: Quantum Cohomology (topological sigma-models), unfolding spaces of singularities (K. Saito's theory, Landau-Ginzburg models), and the recent Barannikov-Kontsevich construction starting…
We show that the canonical equivalences of categories between 2-dimensional (unoriented) topological quantum field theories valued in a symmetric monoidal category and (extended) commutative Frobenius algebras in that symmetric monoidal…
We study regular non-semisimple Dubrovin-Frobenius manifolds in dimensions 2,3,4. We focus on the case where the Jordan canonical form of the operator of multiplication by the Euler vector field has a single Jordan block. Our results rely…
We prove a duality principle for a special class of submanifolds in pseudo-Euclidean spaces. This class of submanifolds with potential of normals is introduced in this paper. We prove also, for example, that an arbitrary Frobenius manifold…
We establish a homotopy-theoretic description of the homology of stable moduli spaces of $(2n+1)$-dimensional manifold triads $(N, \partial^h N, \partial^v N)$ with fixed $\partial^v N$, whenever $n \geq 3$ and $(N, \partial^h N)$ is…
Hexagon relations are algebraic realizations of four-dimensional Pachner moves, and there are hexagon relations admitting nontrivial cohomologies and leading thus to piecewise linear (PL) 4-manifold invariants. We show that some - but not…
We consider the moduli space $\mathcal{R}_n$ of pairs of monic, degree $n$ polynomials whose resultant equals $1$. We relate the topology of these algebraic varieties to their geometry and arithmetic. In particular, we compute their…
The geometric, topological, and symplectic properties of moduli spaces (spaces of configurations modulo rotations and translations) of polygonal linkages have been studied by Kapovich, Millson, and Kamiyama, et. al. One can form a polygonal…
Following the approach of Carlet et al.(2011)\cite{CDM}, we construct a class of infinite-dimensional Frobenius manifolds underlying the Toda lattice hierarchy, which are defined on the space of pairs of meromorphic functions with possibly…
These notes are based on a sequence of five lectures given to graduate students. The main goal is to prove the so-called Painleve property for semi-simple Frobenius manifolds.
A Riemannian metric is called Hessian if, locally, it can be written as the Hessian of a function called the Hessian potential. A (flat) Manin-Frobenius manifold is a flat Riemannian manifold furnished with a commutative and associative…
An oriented compact closed manifold is called inflexible if the set of mapping degrees ranging over all continuous self-maps is finite. Inflexible manifolds have become of importance in the theory of functorial semi-norms on homology.…
Classifying Frobenius algebras is a key question that has been addressed in various contexts. The structure of finite-dimensional Frobenius algebras depends on the base field and the dimension of the algebra, leading to different…
Frobenius manifold structures on the spaces of abelian integrals were constructed by I. Krichever. We use D-modules, deformation theory, and homological algebra to give a coordinate-free description of these structures. It turns out that…
Given an automorphism of a smooth complex algebraic curve, there is an induced action on the moduli space of semi-stable rank 2 holomorphic bundles with fixed determinant. We give a complete description of the fixed variety in terms of…
This paper is a sequel to arXiv:1209.5550 where the notion of mixed Frobenius structure (MFS) was introduced as a generalization of the structure of a Frobenius manifold. Roughly speaking, the MFS is defined by replacing a metric of the…
The object of this note is the moduli spaces of cubic fourfolds (resp., Gushel-Mukai fourfolds) which contain some special rational surfaces. Under some hypotheses on the families of such surfaces, we develop a general method to show the…
This paper studies graded manifolds with local coordinates concentrated in non-negative degrees. We provide a canonical description of these objects in terms of classical geometric data and, building on this geometric viewpoint, we prove…
We study the general theory of Frobenius algebras with group actions. These structures arise when one is studying the algebraic structures associated to a geometry stemming from a physical theory with a global finite gauge group, i.e.…
We give the algebraic and topological description of the moduli spaces of flat metrics for the 4-dimensional closed flat manifolds with two or three generators in their holonomy.
