For varieties given by an equation N_{K/k}(\Xi)=P(t), where N_{K/k} is the norm form attached to a field extension K/k and P(t) in k[t] is a polynomial, three topics have been investigated: (1) computation of the unramified Brauer group of…
In this sequel to arxiv:arXiv:1012.0835 we develop Bezout type theorems for semidegrees (including an explicit formula for {\em iterated semidegrees}) and an inequality for subdegrees. In addition we prove (in case of surfaces) a Bernstein…
We consider a set of non-stationary quantum models. We show that their dynamics can be studied using links to Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov (KZ) equations for correlation functions in conformal field theories. We specifically consider the boundary…

We propose an extension of Wenzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) approximation for solving the Schr\"odinger equation. A set of coupled differential equations is obtained by considering an ansatz of the wave function with an auxiliary condition on…
In the eighties, Schroder studied a quantum mechanical model where the stationary states of Schrodinger's equation obey nonlocal boundary conditions on a circle in the plane. For such a problem, we perform a detailed one-loop calculation…

Fulton and Woodward have recently identified the smallest degree of $q$ that appears in the expansion of the product of two Schubert classes in the (small) quantum cohomology ring of a Grassmannian. We present a combinatorial proof of this…
Cherednik's type A quantum affine Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov (qKZ) equations form a consistent system of linear $q$-difference equations for $V_n$-valued meromorphic functions on a complex $n$-torus, with $V_n$ a module over the GL${}_n$-type…
We show that the Brauer algebra over the complex numbers for an integral parameter delta can be equipped with a grading, in the case of delta being non-zero turning it into a graded quasi-hereditary algebra. In which case it is Morita…

A formalism is developed to study certain five-term recursion relations by discrete phase integral (or Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin) methods. Such recursion relations arise naturally in the study of the Schrodinger equation for certain spin…
We study integrals appearing in intermediate steps of one-loop open-string amplitudes, with multiple unintegrated punctures on the $A$-cycle of a torus. We construct a vector of such integrals which closes after taking a total differential…
We describe, for a few small examples, the Kauffman bracket skein algebra of a surface crossed with an interval. If the surface is a punctured torus the result is a quantization of the symmetric algebra in three variables (and an algebra…
The numerical invariants (global) cohomological length, (global) cohomological width, and (global) cohomological range of complexes (algebras) are introduced. Cohomological range leads to the concepts of derived bounded algebras and…
