We construct the functional integral of Abelian Chern-Simons theory with toral gauge group $\mathbb T=\mathfrak t/\Lambda \cong U(1)^n$ at level $K$, where $K:\Lambda\times\Lambda\to\mathbb Z$ is an even, integral, nondegenerate symmetric…

Continuum Kac-Moody algebras have been recently introduced by the authors and O. Schiffmann. These are Lie algebras governed by a continuum root system, which can be realized as uncountable colimits of Borcherds-Kac-Moody algebras. In this…

By the theory of Eisenstein series, generating functions of various divisor functions arise as modular forms. It is natural to ask whether further divisor functions arise systematically in the theory of mock modular forms. We establish,…

It is an observation of Kontsevich and Soibelman that generating series that produce certain (generalized) Donaldson Thomas invariants are secretly algebraic functions over the rationals. From a physical perspective this observation arises…

We study the structure of wave functions in complex Chern-Simons theory on the complement of a hyperbolic knot, emphasizing the similarities with the topological string/spectral theory correspondence. We first conjecture a hidden…

Chern-Simons (CS) theories with rank $N$ and level $k$ on Seifert manifold are discussed. The partition functions of such theories can be written as a function of modular transformation matrices summed over different integrable…

Let $\mathfrak{g}$ be a symmetrizable Kac--Moody algebra. We describe {standard graded} $\mathfrak{g}$-modules $V$, which we use to construct a completion $\widehat{V}$ and pro-unipotent group $\widehat{U}$ in $\GL(\widehat{V})$. These…

This is an English translation of the author's Ph.D. thesis, accumulating his results on a construction of Cohen-Macaulay modules over a polynomial ring that appeared in the study of Cauchy-Fueter equations. This construction is generalized…

We derive formulas for the classical Chern-Simons invariant of irreducible $SU(n)$-flat connections on negatively curved locally symmetric three-manifolds. We determine the condition for which the theory remains consistent (with basic…

We give an introductory survey on the universal Vassiliev invariant called the perturbative series expansion of the Chern-Simons theory of links in euclidean space, and on its relation with the Kontsevich integral. We also prove an original…

In 2015, Lovejoy and Osburn discovered twelve $q$-hypergeometric series and proved that their Fourier coefficients can be understood as counting functions of ideals in certain quadratic fields. In this paper, we study their modular and…

The paper is concerned with cohomology of the small quantum group at a root of unity, and of its upper triangular subalgebra, with coefficients in a tilting module. We relate it to a certain t-structure on the derived category of…

The purpose of this paper is to prove that we can construct all finite dimensional irreducible nilpotent modules of type 1 inductively by using Schnizer homomorphisms for quantum algebra at roots of unity of type A, B, C, D or G.

A gauge invariant quantum field theory with a spacetime dependent Chern-Simons coefficient is studied. Using a constraint formalism together with the Schwinger action principle it is shown that non-zero gradients in the coefficient induce…
