The aim of these notes is to present an accessible overview of some topics in classical algebraic geometry which have applications to aspects of discrete integrable systems. Precisely, we focus on surface theory on the algebraic geometry…
(This short article is a continuation of a longer, review work, in the same volume of Proceedings, by Ashtekar, Marolf and Mour\~ao [gr-qc/9403042]. All the details and other results are to be found in joint papers of the author with Abhay…
A new field of discrete differential geometry is presently emerging on the border between differential and discrete geometry. Whereas classical differential geometry investigates smooth geometric shapes (such as surfaces), and discrete…
We give an explicit characterization of all principally polarized abelian varieties $(A,\Theta)$ such that there is a finite subgroup of automorphisms $G$ of $A$ that preserve the numerical class of $\Theta$, and such that the quotient…
The standard formulation of Jacobi manifolds in terms of differential operators on line bundles, although effective at capturing most of the relevant geometric features, lacks a clear algebraic interpretation similar to how Poisson algebras…
In this paper a method for the resolution of the differential equation of the Jacobi vector fields in the manifold V1 = Sp(2)/SU(2) is exposed. These results are applied to determine areas and volumes of geodesic spheres and balls.
Using divisors, an analog of the Jacobian for a compact connected nonorientable Klein surface $Y$ is constructed. The Jacobian is identified with the dual of the space of all harmonic real one-forms on $Y$ quotiented by the torsion-free…
We prove that affine invariant manifolds in strata of flat surfaces are algebraic varieties. The result is deduced from a generalization of a theorem of M\"oller. Namely, we prove that the image of a certain twisted Abel-Jacobi map lands in…
We study Jacobi-Lie Hamiltonian systems admitting Vessiot-Guldberg Lie algebras of Hamiltonian vector fields related to Jacobi structures on real low-dimensional Jacobi-Lie groups. Also, we find some examples of Jacobi-Lie Hamiltonian…
The notion of double depth associated with quasi-Jacobi forms allows distinguishing,within the algebra of quasi-Jacobi singular forms of index zero, certain significant subalgebras (modular-type forms, elliptic-type forms, Jacobi forms). We…
A stream of new theta relations is obtained. They follow from the general Thomae formula, which is a new result giving expressions for theta derivatives (the zero values of the lowest non-vanishing derivatives of theta functions with…
Synthetic algebraic geometry uses homotopy type theory extended with three axioms to develop algebraic geometry internal to a higher version of the Zariski topos. In this article we make no essential use of the higher structure and use…
The intermediate Jacobian map, which associates to a smooth cubic threefold its intermediate Jacobian, does not extend to the GIT compactification of the space of cubic threefolds, not even as a map to the Satake compactification of the…
We define certain extensions of Jacobi groups of $A_n$, prove an analogue of Chevalley Theorem for their invariants, and construct a Dubrovin Frobenius structure on it orbit space.
The quantal algebra combines classical and quantum mechanics into an abstract structurally unified structure. The structure uses two products: one symmetric and one anti-symmetric. The local structure of spacetime is contained in the…
This paper is withdrawn since we found a flaw in the proof of Theorem 4, asserting that the base locus of the complete linear system of an ample line bundle on a complex abelian variety is reduced. The error is in page 7, line $ -14$, where…
The geometric properties of sigma models with target space a Jacobi manifold are investigated. In their basic formulation, these are topological field theories - recently introduced by the authors - which share and generalise relevant…
We observe several facts and make conjectures about commutative algebras satisfying the Jacobi identity. The central question is which of those algebras admit a faithful representation (i.e., in Lie parlance, satisfy the Ado theorem, or, in…
These notes are designed for those who either plan to work in differential geometry, or at least want to have a good reason not to do it. We discuss smooth curves and surfaces -- the main gate to differential geometry. We focus on the…
Notions of self-dual and anti self-dual almost quaternionic structures are introduced. The complete classification of self-dual and anti self-dual generalized Kaehler manifolds is obtained.
