It has been argued by Witten and others that in the presence of a nontrivial B-field, D-brane charges in type IIB string theories are measured by twisted K-theory. In joint work with Bouwknegt, Carey and Murray it was proved that twisted…
It is demonstrated that quasi-exactly solvable models of quantum mechanics admit an interesting duality transformation which changes the form of their potentials and inverts the sign of all the exactly calculable energy levels. This…
The problem of quantum equivalence between non-linear sigma models related by Abelian or non-Abelian T-duality is studied in perturbation theory. Using the anomalous Ward identity for Weyl symmetry we derive a relation between the Weyl…
Let $E$ be a vector bundle on a smooth complex projective curve $C$ of genus at least two. Let $\mathcal{Q}(E,d)$ be the Quot scheme parameterizing the torsion quotients of $E$ of degree $d$. We compute the cohomologies of the tangent…
We perform a systematic study of S-duality for ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric non-linear abelian theories on a curved manifold. Localization can be used to compute certain supersymmetric observables in these theories. We point out that…
Let $C$ be an arrangement of affine hyperplanes in a complex affine space $X$, $D$ the ring of algebraic differential operators on $X$. We define a category of quivers associated with $C$. A quiver is a collection of vector spaces, attached…
A linear F-manifold is an F-manifold (E, \circ , e) defined on the total space of a vector bundle \pi : E \rightarrow M for which the multiplication and unit field are linear tensor fields. We develop a systematic treatment of linear…
The edge states of a sample displaying the quantum Hall effect (QHE) can be described by a 1+1 dimensional (conformal) field theory of $d$ massless scalar fields taking values on a $d$-dimensional torus. It is known from the work of…
Let $V$ be the two-dimensional simple module and $M$ be a projective Verma module for the quantum group of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ at generic $q$. We show that for any $r\ge 1$, the endomorphism algebra of $M\otimes V^{\otimes r}$ is isomorphic…
We propose a conceptually economical and computationally tractable completion of the foundations of gauge theory on quantum principal bundles \`{a} la Brzezi\'{n}ski--Majid to the case of general differential calculi and strong bimodule…
An early result of Noncommutative Geometry was Connes' observation in the 1980's that the Dirac-Dolbeault cycle for the $2$-torus $\mathbb{T}^2$, which induces a Poincar\'e self-duality for $\mathbb{T}^2$, can be 'quantized' to give a…
With two typical parent actions we have two kinds of dual worlds: i) one of which contains an electric as well as magnetic current, and ii) the other contains (generalized) Chern-Simons terms. All these fields are defined on a curved…
In this article we realize T-duality as a geometric transform of bundles of abelian group stacks. The transform applies in the algebro-geometric setting as well as the topological setting, and thus makes precise the link between the models…
Spectrum of elementary string states in type II string theory compactified on a torus contains short multiplets which are invariant under only one quarter of the space-time supersymmetry generators. $U$-duality transformation converts these…
We define a quantum analogue of the Grothendieck ring of finite dimensional modules of a quantum affine algebra of simply laced type. The construction is based on perverse sheaves on a variety related to quivers. We get also a new geometric…

Recently, mirror symmetry is derived as T-duality applied to gauge systems that flow to non-linear sigma models. We present some of its applications to study quantum geometry involving D-branes. In particular, we show that one can employ…
In this paper we construct arithmetic analogs of the Riemann-Roch theorem and Serre's duality for line bundles. This improves on the works of Tate and van der Geer - Schoof. We define $H^0(L)$ and $H^1(L)$ as some convolution of measures…
The principal aim of this paper is to extend Abel's theorem to the setting of complex supermanifolds of dimension 1|q over a finite-dimensional local supercommutative C-algebra. The theorem is proved by establishing a compatibility of Serre…
We introduce the notion of mutation of $n$-cluster tilting subcategories in a triangulated category with Auslander-Reiten-Serre duality. Using this idea, we are able to obtain the complete classifications of rigid Cohen-Macaulay modules…
