The formalism to determine (conformal) isometries of a given curved superspace was elaborated almost two decades ago in the context of the old minimal formulation for N=1 supergravity in four dimensions (4D). This formalism is universal,…
We compare the accuracy of two cluster extensions of Dynamical Mean-Field Theory in describing d-wave superconductors, using as a reference model a saddle-point t-J model which can be solved exactly in the thermodynamic limit and at the…
We discuss classical and quantum symmetries of extended Hubbard models. The quantum symmetries are shown to be related to the known superconducting SU(2) symmetry of the original Hubbard model at half filling via generalized Lang-Firsov…
In this PhD Thesis, supersymmetry and its formulation in the context of D=11 supergravity is discussed from several perspectives. The role of generalized holonomy as a classification tool of supersymmetric supergravity solutions is…
In this work we present a supersymmetric extension of the Reissner-Nordstr\"om spacetime in the framework of quantum cosmology. We achieve this by supersymmetrizing the Wheeler-DeWitt equation for a Kantowski-Sachs cosmological model…
Some aspects of the geometry of superembeddings and its application to supersymmetric extended objects are discussed. In particular, the embeddings of (3|16) and (6|16) dimensional superspaces into (11|32) dimensional superspace,…
Old studies on supersymmetric quantum mechanics and its deformations, that were initiated by the 1988 joint paper with V. Rubakov, are retrospectively discussed. In the modern circumstances, corresponding results can be related to…
A gauge U(1) framework was established in 2002 to extend the supersymmetric standard model. It has many possible realizations. Whereas all have the necessary and sufficient ingredients to explain the possible 750 GeV diphoton excess,…
Supersymmetry and Supersymmetric models are reviewed. Lecture given at the KOSEF-JSPS Winter School, Recent Developments in Particle and Nuclear Theory February 21- March 2, 1996,
These are notes from talks given at ICMS, Edinburgh, 4/2007 ("Geometry and Algorithms workshop") and at Bernoulli Center, Lausanne 5/2007 ("Limits of graphs in group theory and computer science"). We survey the following type of dichotomies…
The supersymmetry of near-horizon geometries in heterotic supergravity is considered. A necessary and sufficient condition for a solution to preserve more than the minimal N=2 supersymmetry is obtained. A supersymmetric near-horizon…
In arXiv:0811.1909 Spiridonov and Vartanov, using the superconformal index technique, found that 4-dimensional N=1 SQCD theory with SU(2) gauge group and four flavors has 72 dual representations. Recently in arXiv:1209.1404 the authors…
The course was given at Peking University, Fall 2019. We discuss the following subjects: (1) Introduction to general topology, hyperspaces, metric and pseudometric spaces, graph theory. (2) Graphs in metric spaces, minimum spanning tree,…
Noncommutative geometry has seen remarkable applications for high energy physics, viz. the geometrical interpretation of the Standard Model. The question whether it also allows for supersymmetric theories has so far not been answered in a…
The deep connection between black hole thermodynamics and spacetime geometry remains a central focus of general relativity. While recent studies have revealed a precise correspondence for null orbits, given by $K = -\lambda^2$ between the…
This is a report of the author's talk at Kinosaki Algebraic Geometry Symposium 2018. We discuss some recent progress on the geometry of thin exceptional sets in Manin's Conjecture.

This is a survey paper on several aspects of differential geometry for the last 30 years, especially in those areas related to non-linear analysis. It grew from a talk I gave on the occasion of seventieth anniversary of Chinese Mathematical…
The aim of the present text is to provide some basics around Reshetnyak's theory of subharmonic distances, together with an overview of the main results. This text is intended to be a complement to the English translation of \cite{R1954},…
A method of fundamental solutions has been used to show its effectiveness in solving some well known problems of 1D quantum mechanics (barrier penetrations, over-barrier reflections, resonance states), i.e. those in which we look for…
