We discuss how quantitative cohomological informations could provide qualitative properties on complex and symplectic manifolds. In particular we focus on the Bott-Chern and the Aeppli cohomology groups in both cases, since they represent…
We use super $q$-Howe duality to provide diagrammatic presentations of an idempotented form of the Hecke algebra and of categories of $\mathfrak{gl}_N$-modules (and, more generally, $\mathfrak{gl}_{N|M}$-modules) whose objects are tensor…
Symmetric products of Riemann surfaces play a crucial role in symplectic geometry and low-dimensional topology. Symmetric products of punctured surfaces are Liouville manifolds of interest e.g. for Heegaard Floer theory. We study the…
We examine various properties of double field theory and the doubled string sigma model in the context of geometric quantisation. In particular we look at T-duality as the symplectic transformation related to an alternative choice of…
In this work we study the duality between F-theory and the heterotic string beyond the stable degeneration limit in F-theory and large fiber limit in the heterotic theory. Building upon a recent proposal by Clingher-Doran and…
Geometric Langlands duality can be understood from statements of mirror symmetry that can be formulated in purely topological terms for an oriented two-manifold $C$. But understanding these statements is extremely difficult without picking…
This thesis is divided in two parts. The first part contains the study of some properties of the electromagnetic duality in 4 dimensions. An extended double potential formalism for linearized gravity is introduced which allows to write an…
In this article we summarize and extend the ideas and investigations on so called target space dualities of heterotic models with (0,2) worldsheet supersymmetry as they were partly presented on the String-Math 2011 conference. After the…
Recently the Euler forms on numerical Grothendieck groups of rank 4 whose properties mimick that of the Euler form of a smooth projective surface have been classified. This classification depends on a natural number $m$, and suggests the…
The relationship between convex geometry and algebraic geometry has deep historical roots, tracing back to classical works in enumerative geometry. In this paper, we continue this theme by studying two interconnected problems regarding…
A geometric interpretation of the duality between two real forms of the complex trigonometric Ruijsenaars-Schneider system is presented. The phase spaces of the systems in duality are viewed as two different models of the same reduced phase…
The notion of quadratic self-duality for coalgebras is developed with applications to algebraic structures which arise naturally in algebraic topology, related to the universal Steenrod algebra via an appropriate form of duality. This…
We study duality transformation and duality symmetry in the the electromagnetic-like charged p-form theories. It is shown that the dichotomic characterization of duality groups as $Z_2$ or SO(2) remains as the only possibilities but are now…
This is a slightly corrected version of the article published by Functional Analysis and its Applications in 1993. We define the quadratic duality for algebras with nonhomogeneous relations; the duality between the algebra of differential…
This thesis presents a thorough analysis of the links between the N=4 supersymmetric gauge theory in four dimensions and its three topological twisted counterparts. Special emphasis is put in deriving explicit results in terms of the vacuum…
Let X -> Y be a fibration whose fibers are complete intersections of two quadrics. We develop new categorical and algebraic tools---a theory of relative homological projective duality and the Morita invariance of the even Clifford algebra…
We study quartic double solids admitting icosahedral symmetry.
We study mirror symmetry (A-side vs B-side) in the framework of quantum differential systems. We focuse on the logarithmic and non-resonant case, which describes the geometric situation. We show that quantum differential systems provide a…
We compute the Hochschild homology of the crossed product $\Bbb C[S_n]\ltimes A^{\otimes n}$ in terms of the Hochschild homology of the associative algebra $A$ (over $\Bbb C$). It allows us to compute the Hochschild (co)homology of $\Bbb…
A geometric formulation which describes extended supergravities in any dimension in presence of electric and magnetic sources is presented. In this framework the underlying duality symmetries of the theories are manifest. Particular…
