In an earlier paper we conjectured a relation between the quantum $\mathcal D$-modules of a smooth variety $X$ and the projectivisation of a direct sum of line bundles over it. In this paper we prove the conjecture when $X$ is a complete…
The aim of this paper is to give an alternative proof of Kac's theorem for weighted projective lines (\cite{W}) over the complex field. The geometric realization of complex Lie algebras arising from derived categories (\cite{XXZ}) is…
The equivariant cohomology of a space with a group action is not only a ring but also an algebra over the cohomology ring of the classifying space of the acting group. We prove that toric manifolds (i.e. compact smooth toric varieties) are…
In this paper, we provide constructions to enumerate large numbers of CI-liaison classes. To this end, we introduce a liaison invariant and prove several results concerning it, notably that it commutes with hypersurface sections. This…
By the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem, if X is a smooth quasi-projective variety and C a general curve section of X then the fundamental group of C surjects onto the fundamental group of X. Here we consider when this conclusion holds for a…
The Linearization Theorem for proper Lie groupoids organizes and generalizes several results for classic geometries. Despite the various approaches and recent works on the subject, the problem of understanding invariant linearization…
In this short note we present a family of counterexamples to the King's conjecture.
We give sufficient conditions for a group of homeomorphisms of a Peano continuum X without cut-points to be a convergence group. The condition is that there is a collection of convergence subgroups whose limit sets `cut up' X in the correct…
We show the irreducibility of some unitary representations of the group of symplectomorphisms and the group of contactomorphisms.
We take the trace of Von-Neumann's ergodic theorem and get a trace formula of a unitary matrix family. It is an extension of Poisson summation formula in higher dimension. We also construct a family of crystalline measure with complex…
The main results on the theory of conformal and almost Grassmann structures are presented. The common properties of these structures and also the differences between them are outlined. In particular, the structure groups of these structures…
We define the group of almost periodic diffeomorphisms on $\mathbb{R}^n$ and on an arbitrary Lie group. We then study the properties of its Riemannian and Lie group exponential maps and provide applications to fluid equations. In…
We extend the classical Schubert calculus of enumerative geometry for the Grassmann variety of lines in projective space from the complex realm to the real. Specifically, given any collection of Schubert conditions on lines in projective…
It is shown that a locally geometrical structure of arbitrarily curved Riemannian space is defined by a deformed group of its diffeomorphisms
We consider the method of alternating projections for finding a point in the intersection of two closed sets, possibly nonconvex. Assuming only the standard transversality condition (or a weaker version thereof), we prove local linear…
In this paper, we present a number of examples of k-nets, which are special configurations of lines and points in the projective plane. Such a configuration can be regarded as the union of k completely reducible elements of a pencil of…
We reduce a strong version of the twist conjecture for Artin groups to Artin groups whose defining graphs have no separating vertices. This produces new examples of Artin groups satisfying the conjecture, and sheds more light on the…
A well-known combinatorial theorem says that a set of n non-collinear points in the plane determines at least n distinct lines. Chen and Chv\'atal conjectured that this theorem extends to metric spaces, with an appropriated definition of…
We investigate strongly symmetric homeomorphisms of the real line which appear in harmonic analysis aspects of quasiconformal Teichm\"uller theory. An element in this class can be characterized by a property that it can be extended…
The structure of covariant instruments is studied and a general structure theorem is derived. A detailed characterization is given to covariant instruments in the case of an irreducible representation of a locally compact group.
