The main goal of this paper is to prove a Hermite-Hadamard type inequality for certain Schur convex functions using, as one of the main tools in the proof, a Korovkin-type approximation theorem.
In the literature there are several determinant formulas for Schur functions: the Jacobi-Trudi formula, the dual Jacobi-Trudi formula, the Giambelli formula, the Lascoux-Pragacz formula, and the Hamel-Goulden formula, where the…
We study the Gibbs measure associated to the periodic cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. We establish a change of variable formula for this measure under the first step of the Birkhoff normal form reduction. We also consider the case…
We develop the local Morse theory for a class of non-twice continuously differentiable functionals on Hilbert spaces, including a new generalization of the Gromoll-Meyer's splitting theorem and a weaker Marino-Prodi perturbation type…
We give an explicit formulation of the weight part of Serre's conjecture for GL_2 using Kummer theory. This avoids any reference to p-adic Hodge theory. The key inputs are a description of the reduction modulo p of crystalline extensions in…
The computation of the entries of Jacobi operators associated with orthogonal polynomials has important applications in numerical analysis. From truncating the operator to form a Jacobi matrix, one can apply the Golub--Welsh algorithm to…
In this paper we investigate the tau-functions for the stationary sector of Gromov-Witten theory of the complex projective line and its version, relative to one point. In particular, we construct the integral representation for the points…
We study spin Hurwitz numbers, which count ramified covers of the Riemann sphere with a sign coming from a theta characteristic. These numbers are known to be related to Gromov-Witten theory of K\"ahler surfaces and to representation theory…
In this paper we prove that the GW invariants of the elliptic orbifold lines with weights (3,3,3), (4,4,2), and (6,3,2) are quasi-modular forms. Our method is based on Givental's higher genus reconstruction formalism applied to the settings…
We describe a method for recursively calculating Gromov-Witten invariants of all blowups of the projective plane. This recursive formula is different from the recursive formulas due to G\"ottsche and Pandharipande in the zero genus case,…
A graphical expansion formula for non-commutative matrix integrals with values in a finite-dimensional real or complex von Neumann algebra is obtained in terms of ribbon graphs and their non-orientable counterpart called Moebius graphs. The…
We prove a local $Tb$ theorem under close to minimal (up to certain `buffering') integrability assumptions, conjectured by S. Hofmann (El Escorial, 2008): Every cube is assumed to support two non-degenerate functions $b^1_Q\in L^p$ and…
We outline a proof of a remarkable formula for Hodge integrals conjectured by Marino and Vafa in hep-th/0108064 base on large N duality.
We study the framing dependence of the Wilson loop observable of U(N) Chern-Simons gauge theory at large N. Using proposed geometrical large N dual, this leads to a direct computation of certain topological string amplitudes in a closed…
We study equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants and quantum cohomology in GKM theory. Building on the localization formula, we prove that the resulting expression is independent of the choice of compatible connection, and provide an…
We establish some identities of Euler related sums. By using these identities, we discuss the closed form representations of sums of harmonic numbers and reciprocal parametric binomial coefficients through parametric harmonic numbers,…
We obtain Schauder estimates for a general class of linear integro-differential equations. The estimates are applied to a scalar non-local Burgers equation and complete the global well-posedness results obtained in \cite{ISV}.
Given a measure $\mu$ on the unit sphere $\partial\mathbb{B}^d$ in $\mathbb{C}^d$ with Lebesgue decomposition ${\rm d} \mu = w \, {\rm d} \sigma + {\rm d} \mu_s$, with respect to the rotation-invariant Lebesgue measure $\sigma$ on $\partial…
We give a new, fully mathematical, construction of the space of local operators in the holomorphic-topological twist of 4d $\mathcal N=2$ gauge theories. It is based on computations of morphism spaces in the DG category of line operators,…
We prove the failure of the local-global principle, with respect to discrete valuations, for isotropy of quadratic forms over function fields of transcendence degree at least 2 over algebraically closed fields. Our construction involves…
