A $(\gamma,n)$-gonal pair is a pair $(S,f)$, where $S$ is a closed Riemann surface and $f:S \to R$ is a degree $n$ holomorphic map onto a closed Riemann surface $R$ of genus $\gamma$. If the signature of $(S,f)$ is of hyperbolic type, then…
Let $f$ be a harmonic map from a Riemann surface to a Riemannian $n$-manifold. We prove that if there is a holomorphic diffeomorphism $h$ between open subsets of the surface such that $f\circ h = f$, then $f$ factors through a holomorphic…
Generalized Halphen systems are solved in terms of functions that uniformize genus zero Riemann surfaces, with automorphism groups that are commensurable with the modular group. Rational maps relating these functions imply subgroup…
Let $\mathcal{F}_1(n,m)$ be the space of ordered m-tuples of pairwise distinct points in $\partial \mathbf{H}_{\mathbb{H}}^n$ up to its isometry group $PSp(n,1)$. It is a real $2m^2-6m+5-\sum^{m-n-1}_{i=1}{m-2 \choose n-1+i}$ dimensional…
We determine, in an inductive framework, the vertices of the polytope $P(s,K)$ controlling the conjugacy classes of elements which product to one in the maximal compact subgroup $K$ of a simple complex algebraic group $G$. This extends…
We give a simple proof that, for a pre-quantized compact symplectic manifold with a Lagrangian torus fibration, its Riemann-Roch number coincides with its number of Bohr-Sommerfeld fibres. This can be viewed as an instance of the…
Let $M$ be a connected compact orientable surface, $f:M\to \mathbb{R}$ be a Morse function, and $h:M\to M$ be a diffeomorphism which preserves $f$ in the sense that $f\circ h = f$. We will show that if $h$ leaves invariant each regular…
A topological invariant of a polynomial map $p:X\to B$ from a complex surface containing a curve $C\subset X$ to a one-dimensional base is given by a rational second homology class in the compactification of the moduli space of genus $g$…
In this paper we study the isomonodromic deformations of systems of differential equations with poles of any order on the Riemann sphere as Hamiltonian flows on the product of co-adjoint orbits of the Takiff algebra (i.e. truncated current…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined on a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. On $X$ there is a special morphism $Fr_X$, which raises coordinates to exponent $q$: $t\mapsto t^q$. The two main results in this paper are: Result 1: If…
Bell and Zhang have shown that if $A$ and $B$ are two connected graded algebras finitely generated in degree one that are isomorphic as ungraded algebras, then they are isomorphic as graded algebras. We exploit this result to solve the…
In a previous paper Cuntz and Deninger introduced the ring $C(R)$ for a perfect $\mathbb{F}_p$-algebra $R$. The ring $C(R)$ is canonically isomorphic to the $p$-typical Witt ring $W(R)$. In fact there exist canonical isomorphisms $\alpha_n…
We compute the factorization homology of a polynomial algebra over a compact and closed manifold with trivialized tangent bundle up to weak equivalence in a new way. This calculation is based on the model of a graph complex and an explicit…
This is a continuation of a project on large deviations for the empirical measures of zeros of random holomorphic sections of random line bundles over a Riemann surface X. In a previous article with O. Zeitouni (arXiv:0904.4271), we proved…
In this paper we study $\mathcal M(X)$, the set of diffeomorphism classes of smooth manifolds with the simple homotopy type of $X$, via a map $\Psi$ from $\mathcal M(X)$ into the quotient of $K(X)=[X,BSO]$ by the action of the group of…
The Eisenstein-Picard modular surface $M$ is the quotient space of the complex hyperbolic plane by the modular group $\rm PU(2,1; \mathbb{Z}[\omega])$. We determine the global topology of $M$ as a 4-orbifold.
Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the field of $q$ elements and let $A=\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ be the polynomial ring over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let $\mathfrak{n}\in A\setminus \mathbb{F}_q$ be a monic polynomial with a prime factor of degree prime to $q-1$. Let…
A morphism of nonreduced Gieseker - Maruyama functor (of semistable coherent torsion-free sheaves) on a surface to the nonreduced functor of admissible semistable pairs with the same Hilbert polynomial, is constructed. This leads to the…
This paper presents a new approach to constructing a meromorphic bundle map between flat vector bundles over a compact Riemann surface having a prescribed Weil divisor (i.e., having prescribed zeros and poles with directional as well as…
We elucidate the vector space (twisted relative cohomology) that is Poincar\'e dual to the vector space of Feynman integrals (twisted cohomology) in general spacetime dimension. The pairing between these spaces - an algebraic invariant…
