In 2005 Dullin et al. proved that the non-zero vector of Maslov indices is an eigenvector with eigenvalue 1 of the monodromy matrices of an integrable Hamiltonian system. We take a close look at the geometry behind this result and extend it…
We give a simplified definition of topological T-duality that applies to arbitrary torus bundles. The new definition does not involve Chern classes or spectral sequences, only gerbes and morphisms between them. All the familiar topological…
We extend rotation theory of circle maps to tiling spaces. Specifically, we consider a 1-dimensional tiling space $\Omega$ with finite local complexity and study self-maps $F$ that are homotopic to the identity and whose displacements are…
An orbit-like foliation is a singular foliation on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ whose leaves are locally equidistant (i.e., a singular Riemannian foliation) and (transversely) infinitesimally homogenous. This class of singular…
In this note, we study monodromies of algebraic connections on the trivial vector bundle. We prove that on a smooth complex affine curve, any monodromy arises as the underlying local system of an algebraic connection on the trivial bundle.…
The 1:1:2 resonant elastic pendulum is a simple classical system that displays the phenomenon known as Hamiltonian monodromy. With suitable initial conditions, the system oscillates between nearly pure springing and nearly pure…
Identity-homotopic self-homeomorphisms of a space of non-periodic 1-dimensional tiling are generalizations of orientation-preserving self-homeomorphisms of circles. We define the analogue of rotation numbers for such maps. In constrast to…
Hamiltonian Monodromy is the simplest topological obstruction to the existence of global action-angle coordinates in a completely integrable system. We show that this property can be studied in a neighborhood of a focus-focus singularity by…
Let $X$ be a torus manifold with locally standard action of a compact torus $T$ of half the dimension and orbit space a homology polytope. Smooth complete complex toric varieties and quasi-toric manifolds are examples of torus manifolds.…
This paper concerns Floer homology for periodic orbits and for a Lagrangian intersection problem on the cotangent bundle of a compact orientable manifold M. The first result is a new uniform estimate for the solutions of the Floer equation,…
We describe an algorithm computing the monodromy and the pole order filtration on the Milnor fiber cohomology of any reduced projective plane curve $C$. The relation to the zero set of Bernstein-Sato polynomial of the defining homogeneous…
We consider the free boundary problem for a two-dimensional, incompressible, perfect, irrotational liquid drop of nearly circular shape with capillarity: that is, we consider the 2D version of the 3D capillary drop problem treated in…
We implement the inverse scattering method in the case of the $A_n$ affine Toda field theories, by studying the space-time evolution of simple poles in the underlying loop group. We find the known single soliton solutions, as well as…
We present a 1-loop toroidal membrane winding sum reproducing the conjectured $M$-theory, four-graviton, eight derivative, $R^4$ amplitude. The $U$-duality and toroidal membrane world-volume modular groups appear as a Howe dual pair in a…
Systems such as fluid flows in channels and pipes or the complex Ginzburg-Landau system, defined over periodic domains, exhibit both continuous symmetries, translational and rotational, as well as discrete symmetries under spatial…
We establish an interesting connection between Morin singularities and stable homotopy groups of spheres. We apply this connection to computations of cobordism groups of certain singular maps. The differentials of the spectral sequence…
By imposing certain combined inversion and rotation symmetries on the rational maps for SU(2) BPS monopoles we construct geodesics in the monopole moduli space. In the moduli space approximation these geodesics describe a novel kind of…
In this paper we characterize foams and tetrahedral structures in a unified way, by a simplified representation of both that conserves the system topology. The paper presents a workflow for an automated characterization of the topology of…
We investigate geometric properties of indecomposable but non-irreducible Lorentzian manifolds, which are total spaces of circle bundles. We investigate under which conditions these manifolds are complete and give examples which fulfill the…
The Hamiltonian approach to the theory of dual isomonodromic deformations is developed within the framework of rational classical R-matrix structures on loop algebras. Particular solutions to the isomonodromic deformation equations…
