We report on progress made in the construction of higher-derivative superinvariants for type-II theories in ten dimensions. The string amplitude calculations required for this analysis exhibit interesting features which have received little…

Let X=H\G be a homogeneous spherical variety for a split reductive group G over the integers o of a p-adic field k, and K=G(o) a hyperspecial maximal compact subgroup of G=G(k). We compute eigenfunctions ("spherical functions") on X=X(k)…

In this paper, we study intertwining operators between subregular Whittaker modules of $\gl_N$ generalizing, on the one hand, the classical exchange construction of dynamical quantum groups, on the other hand, earlier results for principal…

We compute the canonical partition function Z of non-interacting conformal higher spin (CHS) theory viewed as a collection of free spin s CFT's in R^d. We discuss in detail the 4-dimensional case (where s=1 is the standard Maxwell vector,…

We discuss orbifold version of the Schur index defined as the supersymmetric partition function in S^3/Z_n x S^1. We first give a general formula for Lagrangian theories obtained by localization technique, and then suggest a generalization…

In accordance with P. Vogel, a set of algebra structures in Chern-Simons theory can be made universal, independent of a particular family of simple Lie algebras. In particular, this means that various quantities in the adjoint…

We introduce and study a generalization $s_{(\mu|\lambda)}$ of the Schur functions called the almost symmetric Schur functions. These functions simultaneously generalize the finite variable key polynomials and the infinite variable Schur…

Let $M$ be a Riemannian manifold, $\tau: G \times M \to M$ an isometric action on $M$ of an $n$-torus $G$ and $V: M \to \mathbb R$ a bounded $G$-invariant smooth function. By $G$-invariance the Schr\"odinger operator, $P=-\hbar^2…

It is shown that Weyl spinors in 4D Minkowski space are composed of primary fields of half-integer conformal weights. This yields representations of fermionic 2-point functions in terms of correlators of primary fields with a factorized…

Let T be a split torus over local or global function field. The theory of Brylinski-Deligne gives rise to the metaplectic central extensions of T by a finite cyclic group. The representation theory of these metaplectic tori has been…

We apply a theorem of Gel'fand, Goresky, MacPherson, and Serganova about matroid polytopes to study semistability of partial flags relative to a T-linearized ample line bundle of a flag space F = SL(n)/P where T is a maximal torus in SL(n)…

In this paper we prove that the sheaf of $\Lscr$-poly-differential operators for a locally free Lie algebroid $\Lscr$ is formal when viewed as a sheaf of $G_\infty$-algebras via Tamarkin's morphism of DG-operads $G_\infty\r B_\infty$. In an…

We consider quotients of spheres by linear actions of real tori. To each quotient we associate a matroid built out of a diagonalization of the torus action. We find the integral homology groups of the resulting quotient spaces in terms of…

We compute the supersymmetric partition function on L(r,1)xS^1, the lens space index, for 4d gauge theories related by supersymmetric dualities and involving non simply-connected groups. This computation is sensitive to the global…

We show that the globally nilpotent G-operators corresponding to the factors of the linear differential operators annihilating the multifold integrals $\chi^{(n)}$ of the magnetic susceptibility of the Ising model ($n \le 6$) are…

We relate Iwahori-Whittaker functions on metaplectic covers to certain Demazure-Lusztig operators, the latter of which are built from a Weyl group action previously considered by G. Chinta and P. Gunnells. Using a certain combinatorial…

We give an asymptotic evaluation for the number of automorphic characters of an algebraic torus $T$ with bounded analytic conductor. The analytic conductor which we use is defined via the local Langlands correspondence for tori by choosing…

As a sequel to our recent work on Casselman--Shahidi's holomorphicity conjecture on half-normalized intertwining operators for quasi-split classical groups, we modify our method, based on a lemma of Heiermann--Opdam, to prove certain cases…

Let H be a connected reductive group defined over a non-archimedean local field F of characteristic p>0. Using Poincar\'e series, we globalize supercuspidal representations of H(F) in such a way that we have control over ramification at all…

Any homogeneous polynomial $P(x, y, z)$ of degree $d$, being restricted to a unit sphere $S^2$, admits essentially a unique representation of the form $\lambda_0 + \sum_{k = 1}^d \lambda_k [\prod_{j = 1}^k L_{kj}]$, where $L_{kj}$'s are…
