Dimensional reduction of gravity theories to $D=2$ along commuting Killing isometries is well-known to be classically integrable. The resulting system typically features a coset $\sigma$-model coupled to a dilaton and a scale factor of the…

We consider type II backgrounds of the form R^{1,d-1} x M^{10-d} for even d, preserving 2^{d/2} real supercharges; for d = 4, 6, 8 this is minimal supersymmetry in d dimensions, while for d = 2 it is N = (2,0) supersymmetry in two…

We study second-order PDEs in 4D for which the conformal structure defined by the characteristic variety of the equation is half-flat (self-dual or anti-self-dual) on every solution. We prove that this requirement implies the Monge-Ampere…

We present a novel supersymmetric solution to a nonlinear sigma model coupled to supergravity. The solution represents a static, supersymmetric, codimension-two object, which is different to the familiar cosmic strings. In particular, we…

We construct hierarchies of integrable systems invariant under the two-dimensional Darboux-Toda mapping for noncommuting objects, thus generalizing to the noncommutative case the integrable mapping approach to nonlinear dynamical systems.…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n. For k \in {0,...,n}, we denote Gr_{k}(M) the set of compact, connected and oriented submanifolds of M of dimension k. This set is called the non-linear Grassmannian. In this…

Let $\mathbf G$ be the finite simple group $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbf F_{11})$. It has an irreducible representation $V_{10}$ of dimension 10. In this note, we study a special trivector $\sigma\in \bigwedge^3V_{10}^\vee$ which is $\mathbf…

We introduce a class of $2d$ sigma models which are parameterized by a function of one variable. In addition to the physical field $g$, these models include an auxiliary field $v_\alpha$ which mediates interactions in a prescribed way. We…

Given a smooth 2-dimensional Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian manifold $(M, \boldsymbol{g})$ and an ambient 3-dimensional Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian manifold $(N, \boldsymbol{h})$, one can ask under what circumstances does the exterior…

In this paper, it is shown that every right $\omega$-narrow strongly topological gyrogroup $G$ is right $\omega$-balanced by applying the gyrosemidirect product groups. Then we investigate the class of $\sigma$-compact strongly topological…

2nd-order conformal superintegrable systems in $n$ dimensions are Laplace equations on a manifold with an added scalar potential and $2n - 1$ independent 2nd order conformal symmetry operators. They encode all the information about…

We use the structure theory of minimal dynamical systems to show that, for a general group $\Gamma$, a tame, metric, minimal dynamical system $(X, \Gamma)$ has the following structure: \begin{equation*} \xymatrix {& \tilde{X} \ar[dd]_\pi…

By using the general framework of affine Gaudin models, we construct a new class of integrable sigma models. They are defined on a coset of the direct product of $N$ copies of a Lie group over some diagonal subgroup and they depend on…

We discuss $5d$ and $6d$ supersymmetric gauge theories in the target-space with compactified directions and with the matter hypermultiplets in fundamental representations in the framework of integrable systems. In particular, we consider…

In this paper we study maps (curved flats) into symmetric spaces which are tangent at each point to a flat of the symmetric space. Important examples of such maps arise from isometric immersions of space forms into space forms via their…

The admissibility problem in integral geometry asks for which collections of affine subspaces the Radon transform remains injective. In the discrete setting, this becomes a purely combinatorial question about recovering a function on a…

For conformal geometries of Riemannian signature, we provide a comprehensive and explicit treatment of the core local theory for embedded submanifolds of arbitrary dimension. This is based in the conformal tractor calculus and includes a…
