Let ${\mathbb M}$ be an arbitrary o-minimal structure. Let $G$ be a definably compact definably connected abelian definable group of dimension $n$. Here we compute the new the intrinsic o-minimal fundamental group of $G;$ for each $k>0$,…

There are two canonical projective structures on any compact Riemann surface of genus at least two: one coming from the uniformization theorem, and the other from Hodge theory. They produce two (different) families of projective structures…

On a compact, oriented, Riemannian manifold, the Hodge decomposition theorem associates a smooth primitive to any exact smooth form omega. In this paper, we show that given a smooth family of exact smooth forms omega(t), the family of…

We study the existence of certain characteristically nilpotent Lie algebras with flat coadjoint orbits. Their connected, simply connected Lie groups admit square-integrable representations modulo the center. There are many examples of…

The non-abelian Hodge correspondence maps a polystable $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$-Higgs bundle on a compact Riemann surface $X$ of genus $g\geq2$ to a connection which, in some cases, is the holonomy of a branched hyperbolic structure. On…

Motivated by the connection to 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories, we study the global behavior of families of tamely-ramified $SL_N$ Hitchin integrable systems as the underlying curve varies over the Deligne-Mumford moduli space of stable pointed…

We prove that the Heisenberg groups can be distinguished from the other connected and simply connected Lie groups via their group $C^*$-algebras. The main step of the proof is a characterization of the nilpotent Lie groups among the…

Given any compact Riemann surface $C$, there is a canonical meromorphic 2--form $\widehat\eta$ on $C\times C$, with pole of order two on the diagonal $\Delta\, \subset\, C\times C$, constructed in \cite{cfg}. This meromorphic 2--form…

We consider the following elliptic system \Delta u =\nabla H (u) \ \ \text{in}\ \ \mathbf{R}^N, where $u:\mathbf{R}^N\to \mathbf{R}^m$ and $H\in C^2(\mathbf{R}^m)$, and prove, under various conditions on the nonlinearity $H$ that, at least…

Let $\Delta$ be a closed, cocompact subgroup of $G \times \widehat{G}$, where $G$ is a second countable, locally compact abelian group. Using localization of Hilbert $C^*$-modules, we show that the Heisenberg module…

The graph product of a family of groups lies somewhere between their direct and free products, with the graph determining which pairs of groups commute and which do not. We show that the graph product of quasi-lattice ordered groups is…

Given a set $A$ and an abelian group $B$ with operators in $A$, in the sense of Krull and Noether, we introduce the Ore group extension $B[x; \sigma_B, \delta_B]$ as the additive group $B[x]$, with $A[x]$ as a set of operators. Here, the…

The universal enveloping algebra of any simple Lie algebra g contains a family of commutative subalgebras, called the quantum shift of argument subalgebras math.RT/0606380, math.QA/0612798. We prove that generically their action on…

We study the relationship between operator algebras, $C^*$ and von Neumann, acting on a Hilbert space and unitary representations of topological groups on the same space. We obtain certain correspondences between both these families of…

Let X be a compact manifold with a smooth action of a compact connected Lie group G. Let $L\to X$ be a complex line bundle. Using the Cartan complex for equivariant cohomology, we give a new proof of a theorem of Hattori and Yoshida which…
