We introduce a notion of retraction between continuous maps of topological spaces and study the behavior of several numerical invariants under such retractions. These include (co)homological dimensions, the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category,…

The purpose of this paper is to give a twisted version of the Eynard-Orantin topological recursion by a 2D Topological Quantum Field Theory. We define a kernel for a 2D TQFT and use an algebraic definition for a topological recursion to…

We define an action of the extended affine d-strand braid group on the open positroid stratum in the Grassmannian Gr(k,n), for d the greatest common divisor of k and n. The action is by quasi-automorphisms of the cluster structure on the…

This article is devoted to the investigation of the deformation (twisting) of monoidal structures, such as the associativity constraint of the monoidal category and the monoidal structure of monoidal functor. The sets of twistings have a…

Just as a symmetric surface with separating fixed locus halves into two oriented bordered surfaces, an arbitrary symmetric surface halves into two oriented symmetric half-surfaces, i.e. surfaces with crosscaps. Motivated in part by the…

In this paper we provide a first attempt towards a toric geometric interpretation of scattering amplitudes. In recent investigations it has indeed been proposed that the all-loop integrand of planar N=4 SYM can be represented in terms of…

We prove that an open Richardson variety in the complete flag variety for $\mathrm{GL}_n$ is isomorphic to a torus if and only if the corresponding closed Richardson variety is toric. Such toric varieties can be classified in terms of the…

We establish the Thom isomorphism in twisted K-theory for any real vector bundle and develop the push-forward map in twisted K-theory for any differentiable proper map $f: X\to Y$ (not necessarily K-oriented). The push-forward map…

The pentagram map is a discrete dynamical system defined on the moduli space of polygons in the projective plane. This map has recently attracted a considerable interest, mostly because its connection to a number of different domains, such…

In the present paper we study twisted foldings of root systems which generalize usual involutive foldings corresponding to automorphisms of Dynkin diagrams. Our motivating example is the Lusztig projection of the root system of type $E_8$…

The work provides a brief intuitive overview theory of graph on surfaces. We considers graphs with an additional structure, wich we call discs with ribbons, also known as one-vertex ribbon graphs. And solves the problem (Skopenkov's) about…

Linked-twist maps are area-preserving, piece-wise diffeomorphisms, defined on a subset of the torus. They are non-uniformly hyperbolic generalisations of the well-known Arnold Cat Map. We show that a class of canonical examples have…

In this paper, we construct good toroidal and minimal compactifications in the sense of Lan-Stroh for integral models of abelian-type Shimura varieties. We start with finding suitable types of cusp labels and cone decompositions which are…

We show that the toric variety of the permutohedron (=permutohedral space) has the structure of a cocommutative bimonoid in species, with multiplication/comultiplication given by embedding/projecting-onto boundary divisors. In terms of…

Moduli spaces of holomorphic disks in a complex manifold Z, with boundaries constrained to lie in a maximal totally real submanifold P, have recently been found to underlie a number of geometrically rich twistor correspondences. The purpose…
