We consider the 2-generated free metabelian associative and Lie algebras over the complex field and the invariants of the dihedral groups of finite order acting on these algebras. In the associative case we find a finite set of generators…
Block and G\"ottsche introduced a Laurent polynomial multiplicity to count tropical curves. Itenberg and Mikhalkin then showed that this multiplicity leads to invariant counts called tropical refined invariants. Recently, Brugall\'e and…
We study the affine schemes of modules over gentle algebras. We describe the smooth points of these schemes, and we also analyze their irreducible components in detail. Several of our results generalize formerly known results, e.g. by…
We introduce four invariants of algebraic varieties over imperfect fields, each of which measures either geometric non-normality or geometric non-reducedness. The first objective of this article is to establish fundamental properties of…
Recently, Bigelow defined a diagrammatic method for calculating the Alexander polynomial of a knot or link by resolving crossings in a planar algebra. I will present my multivariate version of Bigelow's calculation. The advantage to my…
We present a restricted model for the bounded derived category of gentle algebras that encodes the indecomposable objects and positive extensions between them. The model is then used to count the number of $d$-term silting objects for…
Bielliptic surfaces appear as quotient of a product of two elliptic curves and were classified by Bagnera-Franchis. We give a concrete way of computing their GW-invariants with point insertions using a floor diagram algorithm. Using the…
We identify an explicit set of complete and independent Wilson loop invariants for 2+1 gravity on a three-manifold $M=\R\times\Sigma^g$, with $\Sigma^g$ a compact oriented Riemann surface of arbitrary genus $g$. In the derivation we make…
In [1,2] we established and discussed the algebra of observables for 2+1 gravity at both the classical and quantum level. Here our treatment broadens and extends previous results to any genus $g$ with a systematic discussion of the centre…
Gauge-invariant quantum fields are constructed in an Abelian power-counting renormalizable gauge theory with both scalar, vector and fermionic matter content. This extends previous results already obtained for the gauge-invariant…
Let $M^m$ be an oriented manifold, let $N^{m-1}$ be an oriented closed manifold, and let $p$ be a point in $M^m$. For a smooth map $f:N^{m-1} \to M^m, p \not\in Im f,$ we introduce an invariant $awin_p(f)$ that can be regarded as a…
In this paper, we show that the \alpha_{m,2}-invariant of a smooth cubic surface with Eckardt points is strictly bigger than 2/3. This can be used to simplify Tian's original proof of the existence of Kaehler-Einstein metrics on such…
Let A be a central simple algebra with involution sigma of first or second kind. Let v be a valuation on the sigma-fixed part F of Z(A). A sigma-special v-gauge g on A is a kind of value function on A extending v on F, such that g(sigma(x)…
This paper introduces the $J^{2+}$-invariant for oriented pairs of generic immersions. This invariant behaves like Arnold's $J^+$-invariant for generic immersions as it is invariant when going through inverse tangencies and triple points,…
We study triangulated categories which can be modeled by an oriented marked surface $\mathcal{S}$ and a line field $\eta$ on $\mathcal{S}$. This includes bounded derived categories of gentle algebras and -- conjecturally -- all partially…
We consider an algebra of (classical or virtual) tangles over an ordered circuit operad and introduce Conway-type invariants of tangles which respect this algebraic structure. The resulting invariants contain both the coefficients of the…
In this article, gentle algebras are realised as tiling algebras, which are associated to partial triangulations of unpunctured surfaces with marked points on the boundary. This notion of tiling algebras generalise the notion of Jacobian…
We classify, up to derived (equivalently, tilting-cotilting) equivalence all nondegenerate gentle two-cycle algebras. We also give a partial classification and formulate a conjecture in the degenerate case.
We use folding techniques to define a new class of gentle-like algebras that generalise the iterated tilted algebras of type $C$ and $\widetilde{C}$, which we call folded gentle algebras. We then show that folded gentle algebras satisfy…
We introduce and study in detail an invariant of (1,1) tangles. This invariant, derived from a family of four dimensional representations of the quantum superalgebra U_q[gl(2|1)], will be referred to as the Links-Gould invariant. We find…
