It is shown that an HKT-space with closed parallel potential 1-form has $D(2,1;-1)$-symmetry. Every locally conformally hyperk\"ahler manifold generates this type of geometry. The HKT-spaces with closed parallel potential 1-form arising in…

The Hilbert space in PT-symmetric quantum mechanics is formulated as a linear vector space with a dynamic inner product. The most general PT-symmetric matrix Hamiltonians are constructed for 2*2 and 3*3 cases. In the former case, the…

We study closed geodesics on hyperbolic surfaces, and give bounds for their angles of intersection and self-intersection, and for the sides of the polygons that they form, depending only on the lengths of the geodesics

We formulate a systematic algorithm for constructing a whole class of Hermitian position-dependent-mass Hamiltonians which, to lowest order of perturbation theory, allow a description in terms of PT-symmetric Hamiltonians. The method is…

A geometric potential $V_C$ depending on the mean and Gaussian curvatures of a surface $\Sigma$ arises when confining a particle initially in a three-dimensional space $\Omega$ onto $\Sigma$ when the particle Hamiltonian $H_\Omega$ is taken…

We classify all tight holomorphic maps between Hermitian symmetric spaces of non-compact type.

This thesis studies the symplectic structure of holomorphic coadjoint orbits, and their projections. A holomorphic coadjoint orbit O is an elliptic coadjoint orbit which is endowed with a natural invariant K\"ahlerian structure. These…

We consider spaces for which there is a notion of harmonicity for complex valued functions defined on them. For instance, this is the case of Riemannian manifolds on one hand, and (metric) graphs on the other hand. We observe that it is…

We compute the quantum variance of holomorphic cusp forms on the vertical geodesic for smooth, compactly supported test functions. The variance is related to an averaged shifted-convolution problem that we evaluate asymptotically. We…

Let $M$ be an irreducible Hermitian symmetric space of compact type, and let $\omega$ be its K\"ahler form. For a triplet $(p_1,p_2,p_3)$ of points in $M$ we study conditions under which a geodesic triangle $\mathcal T(p_1,p_2,p_3)$ with…

In this paper, Hamiltonian monodromy is studied from the point of view of geometric quantization abd theta functions, and various differential geometric aspects thereof are dealt with, all related to holonomies of suitable flat connections.

We prove a structure theorem for ergodic homological rotation sets of homeomorphisms isotopic to the identity on a closed orientable hyperbolic surface: this set is made of a finite number of pieces that are either one-dimensional or almost…

The space of positively curved hermitian metrics on a positive holomorphic line bundle over a compact complex manifold is an infinite-dimensional symmetric space. It is shown by Phong and Sturm that geodesics in this space can be uniformly…

This paper investigates a new family of special functions referred to as hypergeometric zeta functions. Derived from the integral representation of the classical Riemann zeta function, hypergeometric zeta functions exhibit many properties…

Geometric torsions are torsions of acyclic complexes of vector spaces which consist of differentials of geometric quantities assigned to the elements of a manifold triangulation. We use geometric torsions to construct invariants for a…

It is shown that a contraction on a Hilbert space is complex symmetric if and only if the values of its characteristic function are all symmetric with respect to a fixed conjugation. Applications are given to the description of complex…

We prove that any symmetric Hamiltonian that is a quadratic function of the coordinates and momenta has a pseudo-Hermitian adjoint or regular matrix representation. The eigenvalues of the latter matrix are the natural frequencies of the…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate coefficient matrices of functional equations of zeta functions associated with homogeneous cones, which are given explicitly in the previous paper, in detail. We prove that the coefficient matrix…

Based on the theory of rigid cohomology, we provide an explicit formula of zeta functions of certain K3 families, which we call the hypergeometric type. The central point of our argument is the comparison between the 2nd rigid cohomology of…

A systematic analysis of the symmetries of topological 3D gravity with torsion and a cosmological term, in the first order formalism, has been performed in details - both in the hamiltonian and lagrangian formalisms. This illuminates the…
