Let $\Gamma$ be a connected bridgeless metric graph, and fix a point $v$ of $\Gamma$. We define combinatorial iterated integrals on $\Gamma$ along closed paths at $v$, a unipotent generalization of the usual cycle pairing and the…

The goal of this paper is to make a connection between tropical geometry, representations of quantum affine algebras, and scattering amplitudes in physics. The connection allows us to study important and difficult questions in these areas:…

We establish an explicit embedding of a quantum affine $\mathfrak{sl}_n$ into a quantum affine $\mathfrak{sl}_{n+1}$. This embedding serves as a common generalization of two natural, but seemingly unrelated, embeddings, one on the quantum…

Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth compact Riemann surface with the multicomponent boundary $\Gamma=\Gamma_0\cup\Gamma_1\cup\dots\cup\Gamma_m=:\Gamma_0\cup\tilde\Gamma$. Let $u=u^f$ obey $\Delta u=0$ in $M$, $u|_{\Gamma_0}=f,\,\,u|_{\tilde\Gamma}=0$…

Given a ribbon graph $\Gamma$ with some extra structure, we define, using constructible sheaves, a dg category $CPM(\Gamma)$ meant to model the Fukaya category of a Riemann surface in the cell of Teichm\"uller space described by $\Gamma.$…

In this paper we consider the evolution of regular closed elastic curves $\gamma$ immersed in $\R^n$. Equipping the ambient Euclidean space with a vector field $\ca:\R^n\rightarrow\R^n$ and a function $f:\R^n\rightarrow\R$, we assume the…

We present a unified framework that fully represents electromagnetic potentials, fields, and sources in vacuum, based on a reinterpretation of the classical Hertz-potential formalism. In this construction, $\phi$, $A$, $E$, $B$, $\rho$, and…

For an appropriate choice of a $\mathbb{Z}$-grading structure, we prove that the wrapped Fukaya category of the symmetric square of a $(k+3)$-punctured sphere, i.e. the Weinstein manifold given as the complement of $(k+3)$ generic lines in…

We obtain a comparison formula for integrals of mean curvatures of Riemannian hypersurfaces, via Reilly's identities. As applications we derive several geometric inequalities for a convex hypersurface $\Gamma$ in a Cartan-Hadamard manifold…

We study sound-soft time-harmonic acoustic scattering by general scatterers, including fractal scatterers, in 2D and 3D space. For an arbitrary compact scatterer $\Gamma$ we reformulate the Dirichlet boundary value problem for the Helmholtz…

I provide an explicit construction of spectral curves for the affine $\mathrm{E}_8$ relativistic Toda chain. Their closed form expression is obtained by determining the full set of character relations in the representation ring of…

We give an example of geometric construction (via Hecke correspondences) of certain representations of the affine Lie algebra $\hat{gl}_n$. The construction is similar to the one of [FK] for the Lie algebra $sl_n$. Given a surface with a…

We prove a $\Gamma$-convergence result for a class of Ginzburg-Landau type functionals with $\mathcal{N}$-well potentials, where $\mathcal{N}$ is a closed and $(k-2)$-connected submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^m$, in arbitrary dimension. This…

In recent years enormous progress has been made in perturbative quantum field theory by applying methods of algebraic geometry to parametric Feynman integrals for scalar theories. The transition to gauge theories is complicated not only by…

The non-isospectral symmetries of a general class of integrable hierarchies are found, generalizing the Galilean and scaling symmetries of the Korteweg--de Vries equation and its hierarchy. The symmetries arise in a very natural way from…

We introduce a class of multidimensional Schr\"odinger operators with elliptic potential which generalize the classical Lam\'e operator to higher dimensions. One natural example is the Calogero--Moser operator, others are related to the…

The band structure of the Lam\'e equation, viewed as a one-dimensional Schr\"odinger equation with a periodic potential, is studied. At integer values of the degree parameter l, the dispersion relation is reduced to the l=1 dispersion…

In this note, we derive explicit formulae for the curvature of a convex sum of Riemannian metrics, \(g_t = (1-t)g_0 + t g_1\). We study whether such a deformation can increase the \emph{average} of the Riemann curvature component…

The Kuznecov sum formula, proved by Zelditch in the Riemannian setting, is an asymptotic sum formula $$N(\lambda) := \sum_{\lambda_j \leq \lambda} \left| \int_H e_j \, dV_H \right|^2 = C_{H,M} \lambda^{\operatorname{codim} H} +…

Let $n > 2$, $\gamma > \frac{n-1}{n-2}$, and $\lambda \in \mathbb{R}$. We prove that if $M$ and $N$ are two smooth $n$-manifolds that admit a complete Riemannian metric satisfying \[ -\gamma\Delta + \mathrm{Ric} > \lambda, \] then the…
