We collect evidence in support of a conjecture of Griffiths, Green and Kerr on the arithmetic of extension classes of limiting mixed Hodge structures arising from semistable degenerations over a number field. After briefly summarizing how a…
This paper gives an example of a non-arithmetic surface with marked length variety rigidity.
T. Mochizuki constructs a theory of variations of wild Hodge structure for which the underlying flat connection can have irregular singularities at infinity. He extends in this way the correspondence of Corlette and Simpson between…
We describe recent work that extends some of the measure and topological rigidity results in dynamical systems from situations homogeneous under a Lie group to quite general manifolds.
We study the curvature condition which uniquely characterizes the hemisphere. In particular, we prove the Min-Oo conjecture for hypersurfaces in Euclidean space and hyperbolic space.
In this paper we prove the Rigidity Theorem for motives of rigid analytic varieties over a non-Archimedean valued field $K$. We prove this theorem both for motives with transfers and without transfers in a relative setting. Applications…
In the first section we recall some basic notions on Lie algebras. In a second time we study the algebraic variety of complex $n$-dimensional Lie algebras. We present different notions of deformations : Gerstenhaber deformations,…
In this paper, we study the analogue of the Shafarevich conjecture for polarized Calabi-Yau varieties. We use variations of Hodge structures and Higgs bundles to establish a criterion for the {\it rigidity} of families. We then apply the…
Multiparameter persistent homology has emerged as a powerful generalization of topological data analysis, capable of encoding multivariate filtrations. However, the algebraic complexity of multiparameter persistence modules, marked by wild…
We consider classical gauge theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking on a principal bundle $P\to X$ whose structure group $G$ is reducible to a closed subgroup $H$, and sections of the quotient bundle $P/H\to X$ are treated as classical…
In this paper, we study geometric rigidity of Riemannian manifolds admitting stable solutions of certain elliptic problems (stability in a variational sense), that is, under suitable hypotheses, we are able to characterize the Riemannian…
We show that a smooth 1-parameter family of foliations by circles of a closed 3-manifold, deforming the foliation whose leaves are the fibers of a circle bundle, is trivial, i.e. all the foliations of the family arise from circle bundles…
The discovery of the Higgs together with the excellent performance of the LHC allow to make precision tests of Brout-Englert-Higgs Physics, and especially its underlying field-theory. In this field theory strict gauge-invariance requires…
Higgs mechanism to massive higher-spin gauge fields is an outstanding open problem. We investigate this issue in the context of Kaluza-Klein compactification. Starting from a free massless higher-spin field in $(d+2)$-dimensional anti-de…
The work is devoted to the variety of $2$-dimensional algebras over an algebraically closed field. Firstly, we classify such algebras modulo isomorphism. Then we describe the degenerations and the closures of principal algebra series in the…
We study the motion of a charge on a conformally flat Riemannian torus in the presence of magnetic field. We prove that for any non-zero magnetic field there always exist orbits of this motion which have conjugate points. We conjecture that…
This is the second in a series of papers that aim to develop rigorous and most encompassing foundations for field theory, where in the first installment, we laid out the natural formulation of bosonic variational field theory via the…
In this paper we study the $\mathbb{C}^*$-fixed points in moduli spaces of Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface for a complex semisimple Lie group and its real forms. These fixed points are called Hodge bundles and correspond to…
We study geometric rigidity of a class of fractals, which is slightly larger than the collection of self-conformal sets. Namely, using a new method, we shall prove that a set of this class is contained in a smooth submanifold or is totally…
In this note we consider the flat bundle U and the kernel K of the Higgs field naturally associated to any (polarized) variation of Hodge structures of weight 1. We study how strict the inclusion of U in K can be in the geometric case. More…
