We give an introduction to basic harmonic analysis and representation theory for homogeneous spaces $Z=G/H$ attached to a real reductive Lie group $G$. A special emphasis is made to the case where $Z$ is real spherical.

Let X=G/H be the quotient of a connected reductive algebraic C-group G defined over the field of complex numbers C by a finite subgroup H. We describe the topological fundamental group of the homogeneous space X, which is nonabelian when H…

We consider the homotopical dynamics on compact orientable surfaces of positive genus g. We establish a sufficient and necessary algebraic criterion for homotopy classes with infinitely many periodic points of maps on such surfaces in terms…

Spherical $t$-designs are finite point sets on the unit sphere that enable exact integration of polynomials of degree at most $t$ via equal-weight quadrature. This concept has recently been extended to spherical $t$-design curves by the use…

A reductive homogeneous space $G/H$ is always diffeomorphic to the normal bundle of an orbit of a maximal compact subgroup of $G$. We prove that if $G/H$ admits compact quotients, then the sphere bundle associated to this normal bundle is…

We consider smooth codimension two subcanonical subvarieties in $\mathbb{P}^n$ with $n \geq 5$, lying on a hypersurface of degree $s$ having a linear subspace of multiplicity $(s-2)$. We prove that such varieties are complete intersections.…

A subset $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is called a perfectly matchable set of $G$ if the subgraph induced by $S$ contains a perfect matching. The perfectly matchable set polynomial of $G$, first made explicit by Ohsugi and Tsuchiya, is the…

We study a new class of compact orientable manifolds, called big polygon spaces. They are intersections of real quadrics and related to polygon spaces, which appear as their fixed point set under a canonical torus action. What makes big…

A homogeneous space G/H is said to have a compact Clifford-Klein form if there exists a discrete subgroup D of G that acts properly discontinuously on G/H, such that the quotient space D\G/H is compact. When n is even, we find every closed,…

We compute the cohomology rings of smooth real toric varieties and of real toric spaces, which are quotients of real moment-angle complexes by freely acting subgroups of the ambient 2-torus. The differential graded algebra we present is in…

We study a class of smooth torus manifolds whose orbit space has the combinatorial structure of a simple polytope with holes. We construct moment angle manifolds for such polytopes with holes and use them to prove that the associated torus…

Let $R$ be a smooth affine algebra over an infinite perfect field $k$. Let $I\subset R$ be an ideal, $\omega_I:(R/I)^n\to I/I^2$ a surjective homomorphism and $Q_{2n}\subset \mathbb{A}^{2n+1}$ be the smooth quadric defined by the equation…

We outline a strategy for computing intersection numbers on smooth varieties with torus actions using a residue formula of Bott. As an example, Gromov-Witten numbers of twisted cubic and elliptic quartic curves on some general complete…

For a class $\mathcal{G}$ of graphs, the problem SUBGRAPH COMPLEMENT TO $\mathcal{G}$ asks whether one can find a subset $S$ of vertices of the input graph $G$ such that complementing the subgraph induced by $S$ in $G$ results in a graph in…

We prove a general likely intersections theorem, a counterpart to the Zilber-Pink conjectures, under the assumption that the Ax-Schanuel property and some mild additional conditions are known to hold for a given category of complex quotient…

A hypertoric variety is a quaternionic analogue of a toric variety. Just as the topology of toric varieties is closely related to the combinatorics of polytopes, the topology of hypertoric varieties interacts richly with the combinatorics…

Let G be a connected reductive complex algebraic group. This paper is devoted to the space Z of meromorphic quasimaps from a curve into an affine spherical G-variety X. The space Z may be thought of as an algebraic model for the loop space…

There exist several homology theories for singular spaces that satisfy generalized Poincar\'e duality, including Goresky-MacPherson's intersection homology, Cheeger's $L^2$ cohomology and the homology of intersection spaces. The…

We provide a general method for computing rational Chow rings of moduli of smooth complete intersections. We specialize this result in different ways: to compute the integral Picard group of the associated stack ; to obtain an explicit…

In this paper, we provide two different resolutions of structural sheaves of projectivized tangent bundles of smooth complete intersections. These resolutions allow in particular to obtain convenient (and completely explicit) descriptions…
