Kontsevich and Soibelman reformulated and slightly generalised the topological recursion of math-ph/0702045, seeing it as a quantization of certain quadratic Lagrangians in $T^*V$ for some vector space $V$. KS topological recursion is a…

We introduce a construction that associates, to each finite dimensional k-vector space V, a family of projective k-varieties that comes equipped with the structure of a operad in the category of k-schemes. When dim V = 1, this operad…

This paper addresses an investigation on a factorization method for difference equations. It is proved that some classes of second order linear difference operators, acting in Hilbert spaces, can be factorized using a pair of mutually…

We establish structure results for Frobenius kernels of automorphism group schemes for surfaces of general type in positive characteristics. It turns out that there are surprisingly few possibilities. This relies on properties of the famous…

We consider a special family of Gaussian hypergeometric functions whose entries are cubic and trivial characters over finite fields. The special values of these functions are known to give the Frobenius traces of families of Hessian…

The fundamental group of the complement of a hyperplane arrangement plays an important role in studying the corresponding arrangements. In particular, for large families of hyperplane arrangements, this fundamental group, being isomorphic…

We find that Koschorke's $\beta$-invariant and the triple $\mu$-invariant of link maps in the critical dimension can be computed as degrees of certain maps of configuration spaces - just like the linking number. Both formulas admit…

A central hyperplane arrangement in C^2 with multiplicity is called a `locus configuration' if it satisfies a series of `locus equations' on each hyperplane. Following Chalykh, Feigin and Veselov [CFV99], we demonstrate that the first locus…

A recurring task in particle physics and statistics is to compute the complex critical points of a product of powers of affine-linear functions. The logarithmic discriminant characterizes exponents for which such a function has a degenerate…

The complement of an arrangement A of a finite number of affine hyperplanes in complex n-space has the structure of a poset of spaces indexed by the intersection poset, L(A). The space corresponding to G in L(A) is homotopy equivalent to…

Based on the logarithmic algebraic geometry and the theory of Deligne systems, we define an abelian category of $\ell$-adic sheaves with weight filtrations on a logarithmic scheme over a finite field, which is similar to the category of…

We prove a new recursive relation between the correlators $< \tau_{d_1}\gamma_1...\tau_{d_n}\gamma_n >_{g,\beta}$, which together with known relations allows one to express all of them through the full system of Gromov-Witten invariants in…

We consider arrangements of n hyperplanes of codimension one in a real projective space of dimension d. Let us denote by F the maximal possible number f of connected components of the complement in the projective space of dimension d to the…

Over the complex numbers, the complement of a collection of hyperplanes is a widely-studied object; the cohomology ring, in particular, is known to have a structure depending only on the combinatorial properties of the intersection of…

A double category of relations is essentially a cartesian equipment with strong, discrete and functorial tabulators and for which certain local products satisfy a Frobenius Law. A double category of relations is equivalent to a double…

To any Frobenius superalgebra $A$ we associate towers of Frobenius nilCoxeter algebras and Frobenius nilHecke algebras. These act naturally, via Frobenius divided difference operators, on Frobenius polynomial algebras. When $A$ is the…

We study linear functions on fibrations whose central fibre is a linear free divisor. We analyse the Gauss-Manin system associated to these functions, and prove the existence of a primitive and homogenous form. As a consequence, we show…

Parafermions of order two and three are shown to be the fundamental tool to construct superspaces related to cubic and quartic extensions of the Poincar\'e algebra. The corresponding superfields are constructed, and some of their main…

I classify all cohomological 2D field theories based on a semi-simple complex Frobenius algebra A. They are controlled by a linear combination of kappa-classes and by an extension datum to the Deligne-Mumford boundary. Their effect on the…

A formulation for a non-trivial composition of two classical gauge structures is given: Two parent gauge structures of a common base space are synthesized so as to obtain a daughter structure which is fundamental by itself. The model is…
