The study of the relation between the Weierstrass inducing formulae for constant mean curvature surfaces and the completely integrable euclidean nonlinear sigma-model suggests a connection among integrable sigma -models in a background and…

Let $(\tau, V_{\tau})$ be a finite dimensional representation of a maximal compact subgroup $K$ of a connected non-compact semisimple Lie group $G$, and let $\Gamma$ be a uniform torsion-free lattice in $G$. We obtain an infinitesimal…

In this paper, we study the spectrum $\sigma(L)$ of the Lam\'{e} operator \begin{equation*}L=\frac{d^2}{dx^2}-12\wp(x+z_0;\tau)\quad \text{in}\;\;L^2(\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{C}), \end{equation*} where $\wp(z;\tau)$ is the Weierstrass elliptic…

S. L. Tabachnikov's conjecture is proved: for any closed curve $\Gamma$ lying inside convex closed curve $\Gamma_1$ the mean absolute curvature $T(\Gamma)$ exceeds $T(\Gamma_1)$ if $\Gamma\ne k\Gamma_1$. An inequality $T(\Gamma)\ge…

We show that in the context of two-dimensional sigma models minimal coupling of an ordinary rigid symmetry Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ leads naturally to the appearance of the "generalized tangent bundle" $\mathbb{T}M \equiv TM \oplus T^*M$…

Motivated by Nirenberg's problem on isometric rigidity of tight surfaces, we study closed asymptotic curves $\Gamma$ on negatively curved surfaces $M$ in Euclidean $3$-space. In particular, using C\u{a}lug\u{a}reanu's theorem, we obtain a…

n-symplectic geometry, a generalization of symplectic geometry on the cotangent bundle of a manifold M, is formulated on the bundle of linear frames LM using the Rn-valued soldering 1-form as the generalized n-symplectic potential. In this…

We study the spectral polynomial of the Treibich-Verdier potential. Such spectral polynomial, which is a generalization of the classical Lame polynomial, plays fundamental roles in both the finite-gap theory and the ODE theory of Heun's…

As in the case of soliton PDEs in 2+1 dimensions, the evolutionary form of integrable dispersionless multidimensional PDEs is non-local, and the proper choice of integration constants should be the one dictated by the associated Inverse…

We study the Generalized Fermat Equation $x^2 + y^3 = z^p$, to be solved in coprime integers, where $p \ge 7$ is prime. Using modularity and level lowering techniques, the problem can be reduced to the determination of the sets of rational…

With a simple transformation of the three exponents the generalized Fermat equation can be put into the same form as the Fermat equation. When it is rewritten into this new altered form any real solutions to the altered equation equal a…

We generalize the Embedding Theorem of Eisenbud-Harris from classical Brill-Noether theory to the setting of Hurwitz-Brill-Noether theory. More precisely, in classical Brill-Noether theory, the embedding theorem states that a general linear…

We introduce the class of transparent embeddings for a point-line geometry $\Gamma = ({\mathcal P},{\mathcal L})$ as the class of full projective embeddings $\varepsilon$ of $\Gamma$ such that the preimage of any projective line fully…

We provide a direct combinatorial proof of a Feynman graph identity which implies a wide generalization of a formality theorem by Kontsevich. For a Feynman graph $\Gamma$, we associate to each vertex a position $x_v \in \mathbb R$ and to…

Topology and generalized symmetries in the $SU(N)/\mathbb{Z}_N$ gauge theory are considered in the continuum and the lattice. Starting from the $SU(N)$ gauge theory with the 't~Hooft twisted boundary condition, we give a simpler explanation…

We make an attempt to map the integrable boundary conditions for 2 dimensional non-linear O(N) $\sigma$-models. We do it at various levels: classically, by demanding the existence of infinitely many conserved local charges and also by…

We prove that if a level set of a degree $n$ general inverse $\sigma_k$ equation $f(\lambda_1, \cdots, \lambda_n) = \lambda_1 \cdots \lambda_n - \sum_{k = 0}^{n-1} c_k \sigma_k(\lambda) = 0$ is contained in $q + \Gamma_n$ for some $q \in…
