Let $(V,Z)$ be a Topological Quantum Field Theory over a field $f$ defined on a cobordism category whose morphisms are oriented $n+1$-manifolds perhaps with extra structure. Let $(M,\chi)$ be a closed oriented $n+1$-manifold $M$ with this…
In this article we determine a generating set of rational invariants of minimal cardinality for the action of the orthogonal group $\mathrm{O}_3$ on the space $\mathbb{R}[x,y,z]_{2d}$ of ternary forms of even degree $2d$. The construction…
By carrying out a rational transformation on the base curve $\mathbb{CP}^1$ of the Seiberg-Witten curve for $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric pure $\mathrm{SU}(2)$-gauge theory, we obtain a family of Jacobian elliptic K3 surfaces of Picard…
Supersymmetric D-brane bound states on a Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ are counted by generalized Donaldsdon-Thomas invariants $\Omega_Z(\gamma)$, depending on a Chern character (or electromagnetic charge) $\gamma\in H^*(X)$ and a stability…
Recent work has related the equivariant elliptic genera of sigma models with K3 surface target to a vertex operator superalgebra that realizes moonshine for Conway's group. Motivated by this we consider conditions under which a self-dual…
We study the $K$-ring of the wonderful variety of a hyperplane arrangement and give a combinatorial presentation that depends only on the underlying matroid. We use this combinatorial presentation to define the $K$-ring of an arbitrary…
We present the fundamental properties of the K-theory groups of complex vector bundles endowed with actions of magnetic groups. In this work we show that the magnetic equivariant K-theory groups define an equivariant cohomology theory, we…
An asymptotically flat spacetime in $D=4$ can be mapped via Couch-Torrence conformal inversion to the geometry around an extremal non-expanding and non-rotating horizon. At the linearized level, an infinite tower of conserved Newman-Penrose…
Given a brane tiling, that is a bipartite graph on a torus, we can associate with it a quiver potential and a quiver potential algebra. Under certain consistency conditions on a brane tiling, we prove a formula for the Donaldson-Thomas type…
We explicitly determine the group of isomorphism classes of equivariant line bundles on the non-archimedean Drinfeld upper half plane for $\mathrm{GL}_2(F)$, for its subgroups of matrices whose determinant has even (respectively trivial)…
A consistent N=1 supersymmetric $\sigma$-model can be constructed, given a K\"ahler manifold by adding chiral matter multiplets. Their scalar components are covariant tensors on the underlying K\"ahler manifold. The K\"ahler U(1)-charges…
The K3 sigma model based on the Z_2-orbifold of the D_4-torus theory is studied. It is shown that it has an equivalent description in terms of twelve free Majorana fermions, or as a rational conformal field theory based on the affine…
Using the multiple cover formula of Y. Toda for counting invariants of semistable twisted sheaves over twisted local K3 surfaces we calculate the $\SU(r)/\zz_r$-Vafa-Witten invariants for K3 surfaces for any rank $r$ for the Langlands dual…
We define a signed count of real rational pseudo-holomorphic curves appearing in a one-parameter family of real Spin symplectic K3 surfaces. We show that this count is an invariant of the deformation class of the family. In the case of a…
The elliptic genera of the K3 surfaces, both compact and non-compact cases, are studied by using the theory of mock theta functions. We decompose the elliptic genus in terms of the N=4 superconformal characters at level-1, and present an…
A protagonist here is a new-type invariant for type II degenerations of K3 surfaces, which is explicit PL (piecewise linear) convex function from the interval with at most 18 non-linear points. Forgetting its actual function behaviour, it…
We study the interplay between mass deformations and unoriented projections of super-conformal quiver gauge theories resulting from D3-branes at (toric) Calabi-Yau singularities. We focus on simple orbifold cases…
We study involutions on K3 surfaces under conjugation by derived equivalence and more general relations, together with applications to equivariant birational geometry.
We study a class of four-dimensional N=1 superconformal field theories obtained from the six-dimensional (1,0) theory, on M5-branes on C^2/Z_k orbifold singularity, compactified on a Riemann surface. This produces various quiver gauge…
We introduce Kummer surfaces X=Km(CxC) with the group scheme G=mu_2 acting on the self-product of the rational cuspidal curve in characteristic two. The resulting quotients are normal surfaces having a configuration of sixteen rational…
