All gauge bosons of a non-abelian gauge theory do not transform the same way under the discrete transformations of time-reversal and charge-conjugation. Moreover, the transformations rules depend on how the generators are chosen. We show…

In this paper, we prove that, when an abelian scheme has semi-abelian degeneration along normal crossings divisor in a regular base scheme, a finite flat group scheme of torsion points of the abelian scheme degenerates to a log finite group…

We develop a non-abelian, gauge-theoretic framework for the Schwarzian derivative and for second-order differential equations on Riemann surfaces. As applications, we extend Dedekind's Schwarzian approach to elliptic periods to generic…

Let $\pi_1:\mathcal{X} \to \Delta$ be a flat family of smooth, projective curves of genus $g \ge 2$, degenerating to an irreducible nodal curve $X_0$ with exactly one node. Fix an invertible sheaf $\mathcal{L}$ on $\mathcal{X}$ of relative…

A basic technique for studying a family of Jacobian varieties is to extend the family by adding degenerate fibers. Constructing an extension requires a choice of fibers, and one typically chooses to include either degenerate group varieties…

Non-Abelian statistics is a phenomenon of topologically protected non-Abelian Berry phases as we exchange quasiparticle excitations. In this paper, we construct a Z_N rotor model that realizes a self-dual Z_N Abelian gauge theory. We find…

Let $G$ be a finite group acting on $\mathbb{C}^N$. We study the problem of identifyng the class in $\mathbb{C}^N / G$ of a given signal: this encompasses several types of problems in signal processing. Some instances include certain…

Let $S$ be a semi direct product $S=N\rtimes A$ where $N$ is a connected and simply connected, non-abelian, nilpotent meta-abelian Lie group and $A$ is isomorphic with $\R^k,$ $k>1.$ We consider a class of second order left-invariant…

We present a pure Chern-Simons formulation of families of interesting Conformal Field Theories describing edge states of non-Abelian Quantum Hall states. These theories contain two Abelian Chern-Simons fields describing the…

We study non-abelian versions of the Mellin transformations, originally introduced by Gabber-Loeser on complex affine tori. Our main result is a generalization to the non-abelian context and with arbitrary coefficients of the t-exactness of…

In the present sequel to our previous two papers on regularity on abelian varieties, we give a number of new applications of the theory of $M$-regularity to the study of Seshadri constants, Picard bundles, pluricanonical maps on irregular…

Connections between structural graph theory and finite model theory recently gained a lot of attention. In this setting, many interesting questions remain on the properties of dependent (NIP) hereditary classes of graphs, in particular…

We describe a family of phase transitions connecting phases of differing non-trivial topological order by explicitly constructing Hamiltonians of the Levin-Wen[PRB 71, 045110] type which can be tuned between two solvable points, each of…

The motivation of this work is to construct an analog of compactified moduli of abelian varieties and toric pairs in the case of non-commutative algebraic group G. We introduce a class of "stable reductive varieties" which contain connected…

We investigate the phase transition in the three-dimensional abelian Higgs model for N complex scalar fields, using the gauge-invariant average action \Gamma_{k}. The dependence of \Gamma_{k} on the effective infra-red cut-off k is…

We continue the investigation of Boolean-like algebras of dimension n (nBA) having n constants e1,...,en, and an (n+1)-ary operation q (a "generalised if-then-else") that induces a decomposition of the algebra into n factors through the…

We work with a smooth relative curve $X_U/U$ with nodal reduction over an excellent and locally factorial scheme $S$. We show that blowing up a nodal model of $X_U$ in the ideal sheaf of a section yields a new nodal model, and describe how…

In this paper we study principally polarized abelian varieties that admit an automorphism of prime order $p>2$. It turns out that certain natural conditions on the multiplicities of its action on the differentials of the first kind do…

In this set of lectures, we will start with a brief pedagogical introduction to abelian anyons and their properties. This will essentially cover the background material with an introduction to basic concepts in anyon physics, fractional…

We describe the relationship between the notions of $M$-regular sheaf and $GV$-sheaf in the case of abelian varieties. The former is a natural strengthening of the latter, and we provide an algebraic criterion characterizing it among the…
