In this survey article, we describe imploded cross-sections, which were developed in order to solve the problem that the cross-section of a Hamiltonian $K$-space is usually not symplectic. In some specific examples we contrast the…
This work deals with relations between a bounded cohomological invariant and the geometry of Hermitian symmetric spaces of noncompact type. The invariant, obtained from the K\"ahler class, is used to define and characterize a special class…
A geometric quantization of a K\"{a}hler manifold, viewed as a symplectic manifold, depends on the complex structure compatible with the symplectic form. The quantizations form a vector bundle over the space of such complex structures.…
The effective action in four dimensions resulting from the ten-dimensional N=1 heterotic supergravity coupled to N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills upon dimensional reduction over nearly-Kaehler manifolds is discussed. Nearly-Kaehler manifolds…
We construct a topological space to study contextuality in quantum mechanics. The resulting space is a classifying space in the sense of algebraic topology. Cohomological invariants of our space correspond to physical quantities relevant to…
We study irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds deformation equivalent to Hilbert schemes of points on a $K3$ surface and admitting a non-symplectic involution. We classify the possible discriminant forms of the invariant and…
We reconsider differential geometry from the point of view of the quantum theory of non-relativistic spinning particles, which provides examples of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. This enables us to encode geometrical structure in…
We present a survey of some results and questions related to the notion of scalar curvature in the setting of symplectic supermanifolds.
We construct a mathematical framework for twisted N=2 supersymmetric topological quantum field theory on a 4-manifold. Supersymmetry in flat space is defined and the twist homomorphism is constructed, giving us a supermanifold that is the…
In this text we combine the notions of supergeometry and supersymmetry. We construct a special class of supermanifolds whose reduced manifolds are (pseudo) Riemannian manifolds. These supermanifolds allow us to treat vector fields on the…
We describe explicitly a noncommutative deformation of the *-algebra of functions on the Teichm\"uller space of Riemann surfaces with holes equivariant w.r.t. the mapping class group action.
We study hyperkahler cones and their corresponding quaternion-Kahler spaces. We present a classification of 4(n-1)-dimensional quaternion-Kahler spaces with n abelian quaternionic isometries, based on dualizing superconformal tensor…
We develop a new framework for noncommutative differential geometry based on double derivations. This leads to the notion of moment map and of Hamiltonian reduction in noncommutative symplectic geometry. For any smooth associative algebra…
Let $K$ be a compact group. For a symplectic quotient $M_{\lambda}$ of a compact Hamiltonian K\"ahler $K$-manifold, we show that the induced complex structure on $M_{\lambda}$ is locally invariant when the parameter $\lambda$ varies in…
This is a light and short review on the geometry of hypermultiplets coupled to supergravity and its appearance in string theory. As is long known, the target space of the hypermultiplet sigma-model is a quaternion-K\"ahler (QK) manifold of…
In this paper we develop a theory for constructing an invariant of closed oriented 3-manifolds, given a certain type of Hopf algebra. Examples are given by a quantised enveloping algebra of a semisimple Lie algebra, or by a semisimple…
The definition of Kaehler manifold is superized. In the super setting, it admits a continuous parameter, unlike their analogs on manifolds. This parameter runs the same singular supervariety of parameters that parameterize deformations of…
We study the holomorphic symplectic structures on hyper-Kaehler manifolds of type A_{\infty}, by using the torus action.
N = 2 supersymmetry in four space-time dimensions is intimately related to hyperkahler and quaternionic Kahler geometries. On one hand, the target spaces for rigid supersymmetric sigma-models are necessarily hyperkahler manifolds. On the…
We generalize the hyperkaehler quotient construction to the situation where there is no group action preserving the hyperkaehler structure but for each complex structure there is an action of a complex group preserving the corresponding…
