The Hurwitz form of a projective variety characterizes linear spaces of complementary dimension which meet the variety non-transversally. We extend this notion to varieties in a product of projective spaces. This parallels the multigraded…
Abundant second-order maximally conformally superintegrable Hamiltonian systems are re-examined, revealing their underlying natural Weyl structure and offering a clearer geometric context for the study of St\"ackel transformations (also…
In this work we construct global resolutions for general coherent equivariant sheaves over toric varieties. For this, we use the framework of sheaves over posets. We develop a notion of gluing of posets and of sheaves over posets, which we…
It is shown that a complex normal projective variety has non-positive Kodaira dimension if it admits a non-isomorphic quasi-polarized endomorphism. The geometric structure of the variety is described by methods of equivariant lifting and…
We give a classification of rank $r$ torus equivariant vector bundles $\mathcal{E}$ on a toric scheme $\mathfrak{X}$ over a discrete valuation ring $\mathcal{O}$, in terms of graded piecewise linear maps $\Phi$ from the fan of…
This paper serves to elucidate the nature of toric duality dubbed in hep-th/0003085 in the construction for world volume theories of D-branes probing arbitrary toric singularities. This duality will be seen to be due to certain permutation…
We provide a geometric approach to constructing Lefschetz collections and Landau-Ginzburg Homological Projective Duals from a variation of Geometric Invariant Theory quotients. This approach yields homological projective duals for Veronese…
We use homogeneous spectra of multigraded rings to construct toric embeddings of a large family of projective varieties which preserve some of the birational geometry of the underlying variety, generalizing the well-known construction…
A category which generalises to higher dimensions many of the features of the Temperley-Lieb category is introduced.
In this paper we give a geometric construction of the Borel equivariant (co)homology for spaces with a $G$-action, where $G$ is a compact Lie group with the property that the adjoint representation is orientable. A nice feature of these…
Toric varieties are a special class of rational varieties defined by equations of the form {\it monomial = monomial}. For a good brief survey of the history and role of toric varieties see [10]. Any toric variety $X$ contains a cover by…
We present a geometric interpretation of the integration-by-parts formula on an arbitrary vector bundle. As an application we give a new geometric formulation of higher-order variational calculus.
We study smooth projective varieties with small dual variety using methods from symplectic topology. We prove the affine parts of such varieties are subcritical, and that the hyperplane class is invertible in their quantum cohomology. We…
A new global approach in the study of duality transformations is introduced. The geometrical structure of complex line bundles is generalized to higher order U(1) bundles which are classified by quantized charges and duality maps are…
We extend topological T-duality to the case of general circle bundles. In this setting we prove existence and uniqueness of T-duals. We then show that T-dual spaces have isomorphic twisted cohomology, twisted $K$-theory and Courant…
We prove that compact Calabi--Yau varieties with certain isolated singularities are projective. In dimension 3 we do this by analysis, supposing given conifold metrics. In higher dimensions it follows more readily from Ohsawa's degenerate…
We investigate higher-order geometric $k$-splines for template matching on Lie groups. This is motivated by the need to apply diffeomorphic template matching to a series of images, e.g., in longitudinal studies of Computational Anatomy. Our…
We show that very general hypersurfaces in odd-dimensional simplicial projective toric varieties verifying a certain combinatorial property satisfy the Hodge conjecture (these include projective spaces). This gives a connection between the…
We give an abstract definition of a hypertoric variety, generalizing the existing constructive definition. We construct a hypertoric variety associated with any zonotopal tiling, and we show that the previously known examples are exactly…
In this paper we survey geometric and arithmetic techniques to study the cohomology of semiprojective hyperkaehler manifolds including toric hyperkaehler varieties, Nakajima quiver varieties and moduli spaces of Higgs bundles on Riemann…
