We introduce two $K$-theories, one for vector bundles whose fibers are modules of vertex operator algebras, another for vector bundles whose fibers are modules of associative algebras. We verify the cohomological properties of these…
After giving some definitions for vertex operator SUPERalgebras and their modules, we construct an associative algebra corresponding to any vertex operator superalgebra, such that the representations of the vertex operator algebra are in…
We give a method to construct pseudo-trace functions for vertex operator algebras satisfying Zhu's finiteness condition not through higher Zhu's algebras and apply our method to the Z_2-orbifold model associated with d-pairs of symplectic…
In this paper, we explain a connection between a family of free-fermionic six-vertex models and a discrete time evolution operator on one-dimensional Fermionic Fock space. The family of ice models generalize those with domain wall boundary,…
We study the fixed point subalgebra of a certain class of lattice vertex operator algebras by an automorphism of order 3, which is a lift of a fixed-point-free isometry of the underlying lattice. We classify the irreducible modules for the…
We calculate correlation functions for vertex operators with negative integer exponentials of a periodic Liouville field, and derive the general case by continuing them as distributions. The path-integral based conjectures of Dorn and Otto…
In this paper, we use an M-theory model to conjecture the refined reminiscence of the OSV formula connecting the refined topological string partition function with the refined BPS states partition function for the toric Calabi-Yau…
We give general conditions for the existence of a Hamiltonian operator whose discrete time evolution matches the partition function of certain solvable lattice models. In particular, we examine two classes of lattice models: the classical…
Motivated by the topological classification of hamiltonians in condensed matter physics (topological insulators) we study the relations between chiral Dirac operators coupled to an abelian vector potential on a torus in 3 and 1 space…
A central theme in many body physics is emergence - new properties arise when several particles are brought together. Particularly fascinating is the idea that the quantum statistics may be an emergent property. This was first noted in the…
We revisit the periodic Schur process introduced by Borodin in 2007. Our contribution is threefold. First, we provide a new simpler derivation of its correlation functions via the free fermion formalism. In particular, we shall see that the…
Topological Recursion generates a family of symmetric differential forms (correlators) from some initial data $(\Sigma,x,y,B)$. We give a functional relation between the correlators of genus $g=0$ generated by the initial data…
We show that a quantum spin system has an exact description by non-interacting fermions if its frustration graph is claw-free and contains a simplicial clique. The frustration graph of a spin model captures the pairwise anticommutation…
This thesis presents several new insights on the interface between mathematics and theoretical physics, with a central role for fermions on Riemann surfaces. First of all, the duality between Vafa-Witten theory and WZW models is embedded…
It is known that a two-dimensional spin system can acquire a topological Hopf term by coupling to massless Dirac fermions whose energy spectrum has a single cone. But it is challenging to realize the Hopf term in condensed matter physics…
We consider a Wilson-Dirac operator with improved chiral properties. We show that, for arbitrarily rough gauge fields, it satisfies the index theorem if we identify the zero modes with the small real eigenvalues of the fermion operator and…
In this article, we investigate the interplay between the curvature operator, Weyl curvature, and the Hopf conjecture on compact Riemannian manifolds of even dimension. By decomposing the curvature operator into Hermitian components, we…
The Gromov-Witten invariants of \mathbb{C}^3 with branes is encoded in the topological vertex which has a very complicated combinatorial expression. A simple formula for the topological vertex was proposed by Aganagic et al in the fermionic…
The method of topological vertex for topological string theory on toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds is reviewed. Implications of an explicit formula of partition functions in the "on-strip" case, typically the generalized conifolds, are considered.…
We interpret geometrically the torsion of the symmetric algebra of the ideal sheaf of a zero-dimensional scheme Z defined by $n+1$ equations in an $n$-dimensional variety. This leads us to generalise a formula of A.Dimca and S.Papadima in…
