Starting with minimal requirements from the physical experience with higher gauge theories, i.e. gauge theories for a tower of differential forms of different form degrees, we discover that all the structural identities governing such…

We consider the canonical representation of the absolute Galois group of the rational numbers in the outer automorphism group of the pro-p completion of the fundamental group of the projective line minus 0,1, and infinity. Deligne has…

Let A=k+A_1+A_2.... be a connected graded, noetherian k-algebra that is generated in degree one over an algebraically closed field k. Suppose that the graded quotient ring Q(A) has the form Q(A)=k(Y)[t,t^{-1},sigma], where sigma is an…

We study some arithmetic properties of the mirror maps and the quantum Yukawa coupling for some 1-parameter deformations of Calabi-Yau manifolds. First we use the Schwarzian differential equation, which we derived previously, to…

We prove that for any monoid scheme M over a field with proper multiplication maps from M x M to M, we have a natural PD-structure on the ideal CH_{>0}(M) of CH(M) with regard to the Pontryagin ring structure. Further we investigate to what…

Inspired by computational complexity results for the quantified constraint satisfaction problem, we study the clones of idempotent polymorphisms of certain digraph classes. Our first results are two algebraic dichotomy, even "gap",…

This paper gives insight into intriguing connections between two apparently unrelated theories: the theory of skein modules of 3-manifolds and the theory of representations of groups into special linear groups of 2 by 2 matrices. Let R be a…

In this article, we generalize the theory of discrete Lagrangian mechanics and variational integrators in two principal directions. First, we show that Lagrangian submanifolds of symplectic groupoids give rise to discrete dynamical systems,…

Let $L/K$ be an extension of number fields that is ramified above $p$. We give a new obstruction to the descent to $K$ of smooth projective varieties defined over $L$. The obstruction is a matrix of $p$-adic numbers that we call ``ramified…

For each sphere with three orbifold points, we construct an algorithm to compute the open Gromov-Witten potential, which serves as the quantum-corrected Landau-Ginzburg mirror and is an infinite series in general. This gives the first class…

Pauli matrices are 2x2 tracefree matrices with a real diagonal and complex (complex-conjugate) off-diagonal entries. They generate the Clifford algebra Cl(3). They can be generalised by replacing the off-diagonal complex number by one…

The main purpose of this note is to provide an elementary discussion of some simple triangles of integer numbers in particular through their connections with representation theory of $sl_2$. The triangles under consideration are the Catalan…

We prove that the set of non-degenerate second order maximally superintegrable systems in the complex Euclidean plane carries a natural structure of a projective variety, equipped with a linear isometry group action. This is done by…

Define the Donaldson series of a simply connected 4-manifold by q(X) = \sum_d q_d(X)/d! Recently Kronheimer and Mroka have announced the result that the Donaldson series of so called simple 4-manifolds can be written as q(X) =…

$L^p$-cohomology of rank one symmetric spaces of noncompact type is shown to be Hausdorff for values of $p$ where this does not follow from curvature pinching. Using the multiplicative structure on $L^p$-cohomology, it is shown that no…

Let the columns of a $p \times q$ matrix $M$ over any ring be partitioned into $n$ blocks, $M = [M_1, ..., M_n]$. If no $p \times p$ submatrix of $M$ with columns from distinct blocks $M_i$ is invertible, then there is an invertible $p…

Let $Y$ be a smooth curve embedded in a complex projective manifold $X$ of dimension $n\geq 2$ with ample normal bundle $N_{Y|X}$. For every $p\geq 0$ let $\alpha_p$ denote the natural restriction maps $\Pic(X)\to\Pic(Y(p))$, where $Y(p)$…

The main goal of this paper is to give a general method to compute (via computer algebra systems) an explicit set of generators of the ideals of the projective embeddings of some ruled surfaces, namely projective line bundles over curves…
