Let $B$ be a bilinear form on pairs of points in the complex plane, of the form $B(p,q) = p^TMq$, for an invertible $2\times2$ complex matrix $M$. We prove that any finite set $S$ contained in an irreducible algebraic curve $C$ of degree…

The notion of hidden symmetry algebra used in the context of exactly solvable systems is re-examined from the purely algebraic way, analyzing subspaces of commuting polynomials that generate finite-dimensional quadratic algebras. By…
A conjecture of Kac states that the polynomial counting the number of absolutely indecomposable representations of a quiver over a finite field with given dimension vector has positive coefficients and furthermore that its constant term is…
Let $\mathfrak{k}$ be a nontrivial finite-dimensional Lie algebra of vector fields on a manifold M, and consider the family of Lorentzian metrics on M whose Killing algebra contains $\mathfrak{k}$. We show that scalar relative differential…
We derive a necessary and sufficient condition for Poincar\'e Lie superalgebras in any dimension and signature to be isomorphic. This reduces the classification problem, up to certain discrete operations, to classifying the orbits of the…
Let $M$ be a K\"ahler manifold with complex structure $J$ and K\"ahler metric $g$. A c-projective vector field is a vector field on $M$ whose flow sends $J$-planar curves to $J$-planar curves, where $J$-planar curves are analogs of what…
The goal of this paper is to study the representation theory of a classical infinite-dimensional Lie algebra - the Lie algebra of vector fields on an N-dimensional torus for N > 1. The case N=1 gives a famous Virasoro algebra (or its…
Two theorems witnessing the abundance of geometrically trivial strongly minimal autonomous differential equations of arbitrary order are shown. The first one states that a generic algebraic vector field of degree $d\geq 2$ on the affine…
This note provides a detailed proof of the fact that a linear vector field on a vector bundle has a flow by vector bundle isomorphisms. It implies then easily the existence of global solutions to linear non-autonomous ODE's, with a standard…
The split version of the Freudenthal-Tits magic square stems from Lie theory and constructs a Lie algebra starting from two split composition algebras [3, 17, 18]. The geometries appearing in the second row are Severi-Brauer varieties [20].…
Starting from the tri-Hamiltonian formulation of the Lagrange top in a six-dimensional phase space, we discuss the reduction of the vector field and of the Poisson tensors. We show explicitly that, after the reduction on each one of the…
Geometric algebra is a mathematical structure that is inherent in any metric vector space, and defined by the requirement that the metric tensor is given by the scalar part of the product of vectors. It provides a natural framework in which…
A vector field s on a Riemannian manifold M is said to be harmonic if there exists a member of a 2-parameter family of generalised Cheeger-Gromoll metrics on TM with respect to which s is a harmonic section. If M is a simply-connected…
A rigorous (and simple) proof is given that there is a one-to-one correspondence between causal anti-deSitter covariant quantum field theories on anti-deSitter space and causal conformally covariant quantum field theories on its conformal…
In this paper we prove that the classical Lie bracket of vector fields can be generalized to the noncommutative setting by antisymmetrizing (in a suitable noncommutative sense) their compositions. This construction turns out to depend on…
The main object of study of this paper is the notion of a LieDer pair, i.e. a Lie algebra with a derivation. We introduce the concept of a representation of a LieDer pair and study the corresponding cohomologies. We show that a LieDer pair…
We consider a moduli space of lattice polarized K3 surfaces with the additional information of a frame of the trascendental cohomology with respect to the lattice polarization. This moduli space is proved to be quasi-affine, and the…
We develop a "metrically selfdual" variational calculus for $c$-monotone vector fields between general manifolds $X$ and $Y$, where $c$ is a coupling on $X\times Y$. Remarkably, many of the key properties of classical monotone operators…
We prove a subelliptic estimate for systems of complex vector fields under some assumptions that generalize the essential pseudoconcavity for $CR$ manifolds and H\"ormander's bracket condition for real vector fields. Applications are given…
