One can associate an invariant to a large class of regular codimension two defects of the six dimensional $(0,2)$ SCFT $\mathscr{X}[j]$ using the classical Springer correspondence. Such an association allows a simple description of…
Levin-Wen string-net models provide a construction of (2+1)D topologically ordered phases of matter with anyonic localized excitations described by the {Drinfeld} center of a unitary fusion category. Anyon condensation is a mechanism for…
We develop the notions of connections and curvature for general Lie-Rinehart algebras without using smoothness assumptions on the base space. We present situations when a connection exists. E.g., this is the case when the underlying module…
The bulk-boundary and a new bulk-defect correspondence principles are formulated using groupoid algebras. The new strategy relies on the observation that the groupoids of lattices with boundaries or defects display spaces of units with…
Causal properties of Lorentzian symmetric spaces are investigated in the paper. The global hyperbolicity of the Cahen--Wallach Lorentzian symmetric spaces is proved.
In this work some aspects of models with universal extra dimensions are studied. In particular, in the case of models with one universal extra dimension their phenomenology is investigated and used to extract bounds on the size of the extra…
We show that many well-known transforms in convex geometry (in particular, centroid body, convex floating body, and Ulam floating body) are special instances of a general construction, relying on applying sublinear expectations to random…
We give an elementary construction of a certain class of model structures. In particular, we rederive the Kan model structure on simplicial sets without the use of topological spaces, minimal complexes, or any concrete model of fibrant…
We propose an extension of General Relativity with two different metrics. To each metric we define a Levi-Cevita connection and a curvature tensor. We then consider two types of fields, each of which moves according to one of the metrics…
We investigate some characteristic properties of specific Weingarten surfaces in the three-dimensional Euclidean space using the nets of the lines of curvature resp. the asymptotic lines on both central surfaces of them.
We study the automorphism group action on a bounded domain in $\CC^n$. In particular, we consider boundary orbit accumulation points, and what geometric properties they must have. These properties are formulated in the language of Levi…
We study the geometry of the tangent bundle equipped with a two-parameter family of Riemannian metrics. After deriving the expression of the Levi-Civita connection, we compute the Riemann curvature tensor and the sectional, Ricci and scalar…
In this paper we propose a Hamiltonian approach to gapped topological phases on an open surface with boundary. Our setting is an extension of the Levin-Wen model to a 2d graph on the open surface, whose boundary is part of the graph. We…
Firstly, this paper establishes useful forms of the remainder term of Hardy-type inequalities on general domains where the weights are functions of the distance to the boundary. For weakly mean convex domains we use the resulting identities…
Precision electroweak data allow one to test the standard model, constrain its parameters, and search for the effects of some kinds of new physics. The results of the most recent data from LEP, SLC, and elsewhere are described, as are their…
The Standard Model requires the three known leptonic families to have identical couplings to the gauge bosons. The present experimental tests on lepton universality are reviewed, both for the charged and neutral current sectors. Our…
We study local structure of the moduli space of compact Einstein metrics with respect to the boundary conformal metric and mean curvature. In dimension three, we confirm M. Anderson's conjecture in a strong sense, showing that the map from…
We prove some results concerning the boundary of a convex set in $\H^n$. This includes the convergence of curvature measures under Hausdorff convergence of the sets, the study of normal points, and, for convex surfaces, a generalized Gauss…
We analyze behaviors of generalized forgetful and Daletskii-Takhtajan's functors on perfect objects and crossed modules of Leibniz $n$-algebras. Then we give applications to homology and universal central extensions of Leibniz $n$-algebras.
In this paper, we develop a general study of contributions at infinity of Bochner-Weitzenb\"ock-type formulas on asymptotically flat manifolds, inspired by Witten's proof of the positive mass theorem. As an application, we show that similar…
