We study equivariant birationality from the perspective of derived categories. We produce examples of nonlinearizable but stably linearizable actions of finite groups on smooth cubic fourfolds.
Suppose given a linearized action on a polarized complex projective manifold (M,L), and assume that the stable locus is non-empty. We study the leading asymptotics of the dimension of the equivariant summands appearing in the space of…
We here present rudiments of an approach to geometric actions in noncommutative algebraic geometry, based on geometrically admissible actions of monoidal categories. This generalizes the usual (co)module algebras over Hopf algebras which…
We construct modular invariants on the moduli space of quantum vacua of N=2 SYM with gauge group SU(2). We also introduce a nonchiral function K which is expressed in terms of the Seiberg-Witten and Poincare' metrics. It turns out that K…
We develop and describe continuous and discrete transforms of class functions on a compact semisimple, but not simple, Lie group $G$ as their expansions into series of special functions that are invariant under the action of the even…
We consider an action of a compact group whose dual is archimedean linearly ordered or a direct product (or sum) of such groups on a von Neumann algebra, M. We define the generalized Hardy subspace of the Hilbert space of a standard…
We provide a framework for the construction of diffeomorphism invariant sheaves of nonlinear generalized functions spaces. As an application, global algebras of generalized functions for distributions on manifolds and diffeomorphism…
We find the terms in the nonabelian world-volume action of a system of many Dp-branes which describe the leading coupling to all type II supergravity background fields. These results are found by T-dualizing earlier results for D0-branes,…
The $SL(2,R)$ duality symmetric action for the Born-Infeld theory in terms of two potentials, coupled with non-trivial backgroud fields in four dimensions is established. This construction is carried out in detail by analysing the…
We systematically apply the formalism of duality walls to study the action of duality transformations on boundary conditions and local and nonlocal operators in two, three, and four-dimensional free field theories. In particular, we…
We define the notion of action of an L-infinity algebra $g$ on a graded manifold $M$, and show that such an action corresponds to a homological vector field on $g[1] \times M$ of a specific form. This generalizes the correspondence between…
Let E be an operator algebra on a Hilbert space with finite-dimensional generated C*-algebra. A classification is given of the locally finite algebras and the operator algebras obtained as limits of direct sums of matrix algebras over E…
We investigate the dependence of nonabelian T-duality on various identification of the group of target space isometries of nonlinear sigma models with its orbits, i.e. with respect to the location of the group unit on manifolds invariant…
We discuss the non-abelian duality procedure for groups which do not act freely. As an example we consider Taub-NUT space, which has the local isometry group $SU(2) \otimes U(1)$. We dualise over the entire symmetry group as well as the…
Vierbeins provide a bridge between the curved space of general relativity and the flat tangent space of special relativity. Both spaces should be causal and spin. We posit intertwining the two symmetries of spacetime bundles asymmetrically;…
A generalisation of the equivariant Dixmier-Douady invariant is constructed as a second-degree cohomology class within a new semi-equivariant \v{C}ech cohomology theory. This invariant obstructs liftings of semi-equivariant principal…
Parent actions for component fields are utilized to derive the dual of supersymmetric U(1) gauge theory in 4 dimensions. Generalization of the Seiberg-Witten map to the component fields of noncommutative supersymmetric U(1) gauge theory is…
We study the categorical-algebraic condition that internal actions are weakly representable (WRA) in the context of varieties of (non-associative) algebras over a field. Our first aim is to give a complete characterization of action…
The non-linear realisation based on $A_1^{+++}$ is known to describe gravity in terms of both the graviton and the dual graviton. We extend this analysis at the linearised level to find the equations of motion for the first higher dual…
We construct the Hodge dual for supermanifolds by means of the Grassmannian Fourier transform of superforms. In the case of supermanifolds it is known that the superforms are not sufficient to construct a consistent integration theory and…
