We define functorial isomorphisms of parallel transport along \'etale paths for a class of principal $G$-bundles on a $p$-adic curve. Here $G$ is a connected reductive algebraic group of finite presentation and the considered principal…
In this paper, we explicitly construct string theory backgrounds that realise the so-called $\mathcal N=2^\star$ gauge theory. We prove the consistency of our models by calculating their partition function and obtaining the correct gauge…
Characteristic properties of corings with a grouplike element are analysed. Associated differential graded rings are studied. A correspondence between categories of comodules and flat connections is established. A generalisation of the…
We prove that TR is corepresentable by the reduced topological Hochschild homology of the flat affine line $\mathbf{S}[t]$ as a functor defined on the $\infty$-category of cyclotomic spectra with values in the $\infty$-category of spectra…
In this paper we consider a construction in an arbitrary triangulated category T which resembles the notion of a Moore spectrum in algebraic topology. Namely, given a compact object C of T satisfying some finite tilting assumptions, we…
The data of a "2D field theory with a closed string compactification" is an equivariant chain level action of a cell decomposition of the union of all moduli spaces of punctured Riemann surfaces with each component compactified as a…
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p > 0$. For a strictly semi-stable scheme over $k[[t]]$, we construct the weight spectral sequence in $p$-adic cohomology using the theory of arithmetic $\mathcal{D}$-modules, whose $E_1$ terms…
We review the caloron correspondence between $G$-bundles on $M \times S^1$ and $\Omega G$-bundles on $M$, where $\Omega G$ is the space of smooth loops in the compact Lie group $G$. We use the caloron correspondence to define characteristic…
Let $G$ be a complex simply connected semisimple Lie group and let $\Gamma$ be a torsionless uniform irreducible lattice in $G$. Then $\Gamma\backslash G$ is a compact complex non-K\"ahler manifold whose tangent bundle is holomorphically…
Recently twisted K-theory has received much attention due to its applications in string theory and the announced result by Freed, Hopkins and Telemann relating the twisted equivariant K-theory of a compact Lie group to its Verlinde algebra.…
By virtue of the well-known theorem, a structure Lie group K of a principal bundle $P$ is reducible to its closed subgroup H iff there exists a global section of the quotient bundle P/K. In gauge theory, such sections are treated as Higgs…
We show that string algebras are `homologically tame' in the following sense: First, the syzygies of arbitrary representations of a finite dimensional string algebra $\Lambda$ are direct sums of cyclic representations, and the left…
We describe a structure on a commutative ring (pre)cyclotomic spectrum $R$ that gives rise to a (pre)cyclotomic structure on topological Hochschild homology ($THH$) relative to its underlying commutative ring spectrum. This lets us…
New relations of correlation functions are found in topological string theory; one for each second cohomology class of the target space. They are close cousins of the Deligne-Dijkgraaf-Witten's puncture and dilaton equations. When combined…
In recent work, the authors developed a simple method of constructing topological spaces from certain well-behaved partially ordered sets -- those coming from sequences of relations between finite sets. This method associates a given poset…
For a connected smooth proper rigid space $X$ over a perfectoid field extension of $\mathbb Q_p$, we show that the \'etale Picard functor of $X$ defined on perfectoid test objects is the diamondification of the rigid analytic Picard…
This is a survey paper on cohomology theories for $A_\infty$ and $E_\infty$ ring spectra. Different constructions and main properties of topological Andr\'e-Quillen cohomology and of topological derivations are described. We give sample…
A functor on compact Hausdorf spaces is constructed as the sum of certain equivariant K-theory groups. It is shown that the functor takes values in lambda-rings and satisfies a Thom isomorphism. In the case that the space is a CW-complex…
The $R^2 F^{2g-2}$ terms of Type IIA strings on Calabi-Yau 3-folds, which are given by the corresponding topological string amplitudes (a worldsheet instanton sum for all genera), are shown to have a simple M-theory interpretation. In…
Motivated by new capabilities to realise artificial gauge fields in ultracold atomic systems, and by their potential to access correlated topological phases in lattice systems, we present a new strategy for designing topologically…
