This work contains a brief and elementary exposition of the foundations of Poisson and symplectic geometries, with an emphasis on applications for Hamiltonian systems with second-class constraints. In particular, we clarify the geometric…

This is more or less the content of a 5-hour mini-course that I have given at KTH in the program ``Master class in low-dimensional dynamics'' during May 1-5, 2023. It was not intended to be exhaustive but to give the students a grasp of…

These are lecture notes for a course in Winter 2022/23, updated and completed in October 2025. The goal of the lectures is to present some recent developments around six-functor formalisms, in particular: the abstract theory of 6-functor…

We consider the dimer model on a bipartite graph embedded into a locally flat Riemann surface with conical singularities and satisfying certain geometric conditions in the spirit of the work of [Chelkak, Laslier and Russkikh, Proceedings of…

Global Categorical Symmetries are a powerful new tool for analyzing quantum field theories. This volume compiles lecture notes from the 2022 and 2023 summer schools on Global Categorical Symmetries, held at the Perimeter Institute for…

These notes accompany an introductory lecture course on the twistor approach to supersymmetric gauge theories aimed at early-stage PhD students. It was held by the author at the University of Cambridge during the Michaelmas term in 2009.…

This paper is based on a talk presented by the first author at the Short Program on Riemannian Geometry that took place at the Centre de Recherche Math\'ematiques, Universit\'e de Montr\'eal, during the period June 28-July 16, 2004. It is a…

The aim of these notes (which were partially covered in lectures given at the Peyresq Summer School on 17--22 June, 2002) is to give an introduction to some mathematical aspects of supersymmetry. Some (hopefully) original point of view are…

These are lecture notes for a short winter course at the Department of Mathematics, University of Coimbra, Portugal, December 6--8, 2018. The course was part of the 13th International Young Researchers Workshop on Geometry, Mechanics and…

The goal of this contribution is to provide worksheets in Coq for students to learn about divisibility and binomials. These basic topics are a good case study as they are widely taught in the early academic years (or before in France). We…

Trimming is a core technique in geometric modeling. Unfortunately, the resulting objects do not take the requirements of numerical simulations into account and yield various problems. This paper outlines principal issues of trimmed models…

These are the expanded lecture notes from the author's mini-course during the graduate summer school of the Park City Math Institute in 2015. The main topics covered are: geometry of Springer fibers, affine Springer fibers and Hitchin…

By using algebraic tools from differential Gerstenhaber algebras and Batalin-Vilkobisky algebras, we provide a new perspective on the modular class in Poisson geometry and the intrinsic biderivation of a Lie bialgebra. Furthermore,…

Consider briefly the equations of fluid dynamics-they describe the enormous wealth of detail in all the interacting physical elements of a fluid flow-whereas in applications we want to deal with a description of just that which is…

These are notes for the CIME school on Complex non-K\"ahler geometry from July 9th to July 13th of 2018 in Cetraro, Italy. It is an overview of different properties of a class of non-K\"ahler compact complex manifolds called LVMB manifolds,…

This article is an extended version of the minicourse given by the second author at the summer school of the conference "Interactions of quantum affine algebras with cluster algebras, current algebras and categorification", held in June…

These notes are adapted from two talks given at the 2004 Clay Institute Summer School on Floer homology, gauge theory, and low dimensional topology at the Alfred Renyi Institute. We will quickly review what we do and do not know about the…

A ghor algebra is the path algebra of a dimer quiver on a surface, modulo relations that come from the perfect matchings of its quiver. Such algebras arise from abelian quiver gauge theories in physics. We show that a ghor algebra $\Lambda$…

Since the subject of noncommutative geometry is now entering maturity, we felt there is need for presentation of the material at an undergraduate course level. Our review is a zero order approximation to this project. Thus, the present…

These notes are an expanded version of the author's lectures at the graduate workshop "Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry" at the Mathematical Sciences Research Institute in June 2012. The main topics discussed are Artin-Schelter regular…
