We study the superpotential of a certain class of N=1 supersymmetric type II compactifications with fluxes and D-branes. We show that it has an important two-dimensional meaning in terms of a chiral ring of the topologically twisted theory…

We introduce an "extended locus of Hodge classes" that also takes into account integral classes that become Hodge classes "in the limit". More precisely, given a polarized variation of integral Hodge structure of weight zero on a…

In this paper we look into the structure of finite-dimensional graded superalgebras of various types such as associative, Lie and Jordan over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.

Kato and Usui developed a theory of partial compactifications for quotients of period domains D by arithmetic groups {\Gamma}, in an attempt to generalize the toroidal compactifications of Ash-Mumford-Rapoport-Tai to non-classical cases.…

Given an infinite, compact, monothetic group $G$ we study decompositions and structure of unbounded derivations in a crossed product C$^*$-algebra $C(G)\rtimes\Z$ obtained from a translation on $G$ by a generator of a dense cyclic subgroup.…

It is known that the algebraic \deRham cohomology group $\hDR{i}(X_0/\Q)$ of a nonsingular variety $X_0/\Q$ has the same rank as the rational singular cohomology group $\h^i\sing(\Xh;\Q)$ of the complex manifold $\Xh$ associated to the base…

We study local algebras, which are structures similar to $\mathbb{Z}$-graded algebras concentrated in degrees $-1,0,1$, but without a product defined for pairs of elements at the same degree $\pm1$. To any triple consisting of a Kac-Moody…

In this paper we consider period domains over local fields for quasi-split reductive groups. We compute the continuous l-adic cohomology with compact support of them in the case of a basic isocrystal. This paper is a continuation of [O2]…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety over a field $K \subset \overline{{\mathbb{Q}}_p}$ and $f$ be a self map. When $K$ is a local field, the boundedness of $f$-periods in $X(K)$ is a well studied question. We will study the same question for…

We survey the Mumford construction of degenerating abelian varieties, with a focus on the analytic version of the construction, and its relation to toric geometry. Moreover, we study the geometry and Hodge theory of multivariable…

Let $S$ be the special fibre of a Shimura variety of Hodge type, with good reduction at a place above $p$. We give an alternative construction of the zip period map for $S$, which is used to define the Ekedahl-Oort strata of $S$. The method…

We investigate from an algebraic and topological point of view the minimal prime spectrum of a universal algebra, considering the prime congruences w.r.t. the term condition commutator. Then we use the topological structure of the minimal…

Call a periodic map $h$ on the closed orientable surface $\Sigma_g$ extendable if $h$ extends to a periodic map over the pair $(S^3, \Sigma_g)$ for possible embeddings $e: \Sigma_g\to S^3$. We determine the extendabilities for all…

The subject of the present work is the de Rham part of non-commutative Hodge structures on the periodic cyclic homology of differential graded algebras and categories. We discuss explicit formulas for the corresponding connection on the…

Given a complex semisimple Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ and a commutative ${\mathbb C}$-algebra $A$, let ${\mathfrak g}[A] = {\mathfrak g} \otimes A$ be the corresponding generalized current algebra. In this paper we explore questions…

This paper was motivated by the following question: Recall that for a smooth projective variety X whose polarized Hodge structure on H^n(X,Q)_{prim} leads to a period point ...

We begin by introducing the concept of a Hodge structure and give some of its basic properties, including the Hodge and Lefschetz decompositions. We then define the period map, which relates families of Kahler manifolds to the families of…

We explicitly construct modular forms on a $4$-dimensional bounded symmetric domain of type $IV$ based on the variation of the Hodge structures of $K3$ surfaces. We study the ring of our modular forms. Because of the Kneser conditions of…

When compactifying M- or type II string-theories on tori of indefinite space-time signature, their low energy theories involve sigma models on E_{n(n)}/H_n, where H_n is a not necessarily compact subgroup of E_{n(n)} whose complexification…
