We study a class of extremal transitions between topological distinct Calabi--Yau manifolds which have an interpretation in terms of the special massless states of a type II string compactification. In those cases where a dual heterotic…
We show that any complex (respectively real) representation of finite group naturally generates a open-closed (respectively Klein) topological field theory over complex numbers. We relate the 1-point correlator for the projective plane in…
A conjecture of Berkovich asserts that every non-simple finite p-group has a non-inner automorphism of order p. This conjecture is far from being proved despite the great effort devoted to it. In this paper we prove it for p-groups of…
We show that all classes that are neither semisimple nor unipotent in finite simple Chevalley or Steinberg groups different from $PSL_n(q)$ collapse (i.e. are never the support of a finite-dimensional Nichols algebra). As a consequence, we…
In this paper we provide purely model-theoretic (algebraic) characterisations for classes definable in second-order logic and for pseudo-elementary classes (including PC and PC_{\Delta} classes). Classical results of this flavour include…
The study of topological quantum field theories increasingly relies upon concepts from higher-dimensional algebra such as n-categories and n-vector spaces. We review progress towards a definition of n-category suited for this purpose, and…
In [2], an exhaustive construction is achieved for the class of all 4-dimensional unital division algebras over finite fields of odd order, whose left nucleus is not minimal and whose automorphism group contains Klein's four-group. We…
We study the algebraic implications of the non-independence property (NIP) and variants thereof (dp-minimality) on infinite fields, motivated by the conjecture that all such fields which are neither real closed nor separably closed admit a…
The theme of the first two sections, is to prepare the framework of how from a "complicated" family of index models I in K_1 we build many and/or complicated structures in a class K_2. The index models are characteristically linear orders,…
We show that the Nichols algebra of a simple Yetter-Drinfeld module over a projective special linear group over a finite field whose support is a semisimple orbit has infinite dimension, provided that the elements of the orbit are…
Let $A$ be a right noetherian algebra over a field $k$. If the base field extension $A \otimes_k K$ remains right noetherian for all extension fields $K$ of $k$, then $A$ is called stably right noetherian over $k$. We develop an inductive…
We prove that the common theory of nonabelian free groups has the dimensional order property, or DOP, implying, for example, that there is no reasonable structure theorem for $\aleph_1$-saturated models of this theory.
The integrability of the generalized Benney hierarchy with three primary fields is investigated from the point of view of two-dimensional topological field theories coupled to gravity. The associated primary free energy and correlation…
We study finitely generated models of countable theories, having at most countably many nonisomorphic finitely generated models. We intro- duce a notion of rank of finitely generated models and we prove, when T has at most countably many…
This paper concerns finite groups of class (at most) two and of odd prime exponent $p$. Such a group is called special if the center lies within its derived group. Every group of class 2 and exponent $p$ can be uniquely expressed as the…
We classify all groups G and all pairs (V,W) of absolutely simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over G such that the support of the direct sum of V and W generates G, the square of the braiding between V and W is not the identity, and the Nichols…
We present a structural description of finite nilpotent groups of class at most $2$ using a specified number of subdirect and central products of $2$-generated such groups. As a corollary, we show that all of these groups are isomorphic to…
We give an explicit description of nilpotent Chernikov 2-groups with elementary tops and the basis of rank 2.
We develop the functional renormalization group formalism for a tensorial group field theory with closure constraint, in the case of an Abelian just renormalizable model with quartic interactions. The method allows us to obtain a closed but…
We study the structure of infinite discrete sets D definable in expansions of ordered Abelian groups whose theories are strong and definably complete, with particular emphasis on the set D' comprised of differences between successive…
