The local topological dynamics of subgroups of ${\rm Diff} ({\mathbb C^n}, 0)$, with special emphasis on ${\rm Diff} ({\mathbb C^2}, 0)$, is discussed with a view towards integrability questions. It is proved in particular that a subgroup…
This study uses the ideas of \cite{Rieffel} to provide the dual of $L^1(\mu,X)$ in the positive and $\sigma-$ finite cases. This results in elegant necessary and sufficient criteria for weak compactness in $L^1(S,\mu,X)$ in the…
In this paper, the author gives a complete set of simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over Suzuki algebra $A_{N\,2n+1}^{\mu\lambda}$ and investigates the Nichols algebras over those irreducible Yetter-Drinfeld modules. The finite dimensional…
We obtain some new results on classical solutions of two dimensional Euclidean sigma models. From earlier work of Din-Zakrzewski, Glaser-Stora, and numerous differential geometers, one knows explicit solutions in the case of the…
We consider F/M/Type IIA theory compactified to four, three, or two dimensions on a Calabi-Yau four-fold, and study the behavior near an isolated singularity in the presence of appropriate fluxes and branes. We analyze the vacuum and…
When $p$ is inert in the quadratic imaginary field $E$ and $m<n$, unitary Shimura varieties of signature $(n,m)$ and a hyperspecial level subgroup at $p$, carry a natural foliation of height 1 and rank $m^2$ in the tangent bundle of their…
This is an expository article on the singularities of nilpotent orbit closures in simple Lie algebras over the complex numbers. It is slanted towards aspects that are relevant for representation theory, including Maffei's theorem relating…
We prove that if the normal distribution of a singular riemannian foliation is integrable, then each leaf of this normal distribution can be extended to be a complete immersed totally geodesic submanifold (called section) which meets every…
In this note we will show a Calder\'on--Zygmund decomposition associated with a function $f\in L^1(\mathbb{T}^{\omega})$. The idea relies on an adaptation of a more general result by J. L. Rubio de Francia in the setting of locally compact…
An orbit-like foliation is a singular foliation on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ whose leaves are locally equidistant (i.e., a singular Riemannian foliation) and (transversely) infinitesimally homogenous. This class of singular…
We extend the action for evolution equations of KdV and MKdV type which was derived in [Capel/Nijhoff] to the case of not periodic, but only equivariant phase space variables, introduced in [Faddeev/Volkov]. The difference of these…
We describe the supersingular locus of the Siegel 3-fold with a parahoric level structure. We also study its higher dimensional generalization. Using this correspondence and a deep result of Li and Oort, we evaluate the number of…
We establish plurisubharmonicity of envelopes of certain classical disc functionals on locally irreducible complex spaces, thereby generalizing the corresponding results for complex manifolds. We also find new formulae expressing the…
We give a summary of results for dimensions of spaces of cuspidal Siegel modular forms of degree 2. These results together with a list of dimensions of the irreducible representations of the finite groups GSp(4,Fp) are then used to produce…
In this article we describe relations of the topology of closed 1-forms to the group theoretic invariants of Bieri-Neumann-Strebel-Renz. Starting with a survey, we extend these Sigma invariants to finite CW- complexes and show that many…
We classify the finite primitive permutation groups which have a cyclic subgroup with two orbits. This extends classical topics in permutation group theory, and has arithmetic consequences. By a theorem of C. L. Siegel, affine algebraic…
For dimensions $n \geq 3$, we classify singular solutions to the generalized Liouville equation $(-\Delta)^{n/2} u = e^{nu}$ on $\mathbb{R}^n \setminus \{0\}$ with the finite integral condition $\int_{\mathbb{R}^n} e^{nu} < \infty$ in terms…
We show that Nichols algebras of most simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over the projective special linear group over a finite field, corresponding to non-semisimple orbits, have infinite dimension. We spell out a new criterium to show that a…
We discuss the deformation theory of special Lagrangian (SL) conifolds in complex space C^m. Conifolds are a key ingredient in the compactification problem for moduli spaces of compact SLs in Calabi-Yau manifolds. This category allows for…
Let $f$ be an entire transcendental function of finite order and $\Delta$ be a forward invariant bounded Siegel disk for $f$ with rotation number in Herman's class $\mathcal{H}$. We show that if $f$ has two singular values with bounded…
