The Modular Isomorphism Problem asks if an isomorphism of group algebras of two finite p-groups G and H over a field of characteristic p, implies an isomorhism of the groups G and H. We survey the history of the problem, explain strategies…
The notion of modular covariance is reviewed and the reconstruction of the Poincar\'e group extended to the low-dimensional case. The relations with the PCT symmetry and the Spin and Statistics theorem are described.
Since the pioneering work of Kontsevich and Soibelman [51], scattering diagrams have started playing an important role in mirror symmetry, in particular in the study of the reconstruction problem. This paper aims at introducing the main…
Molecular spintronics is recognized to as an attractive new research direction in a field of spintronics, following to metallic spintronics and inorganic semiconductor spintronics, and attracts many people in recent decades. The purpose of…
This paper constructs a Riemann surface associated to the icosahedron and discusses the geodesics associated to a flat metric on this surface. Because of the icosahedral symmetry, this is a distinguished special case of the example treated…

We suggest an interpretation of mirror symmetry for toric varieties via an equivalence of two conformal field theories. The first theory is the twisted sigma model of a toric variety in the infinite volume limit (the A-model). The second…
We survey recent developments in the study of SYZ mirror symmetry for compact toric and toric Calabi-Yau varieties, with a special emphasis on works of the author and his collaborators.
We give an introduction to mirror symmetry of strings on Calabi-Yau manifolds with an emphasis on its applications e.g. for the computation of Yukawa couplings. We introduce all necessary concepts and tools such as the basics of toric…
The theory of modular deformations is generalized for the category of complex analytic polyhedra which includes germs of complex space as well as any compact complex analytic space. The objective of the theory is a construction of fine…
This is a survey of the "Fourier symmetry" of measures and distributions on the circle in relation with the size of their support. Mostly it is based on our paper arxiv:1004.3631 and a talk given by the second author in the 2012 Abel…
This proceedings note introduces aspects of the authors' work relating mirror symmetry and integral variations of Hodge structure. The emphasis is on their classification of the integral variations of Hodge structure which can underly…
We prove that the cyclic homology of a saturated $A_\infty$ category admits the structure of a `polarized variation of Hodge structures', building heavily on the work of many authors: the main point of the paper is to present complete…
Some aspects of $Q$-conditional symmetry and of its connections with reduction and compatibility are discussed.
We use a relative Fourier-Mukai transform on elliptic K3 surfaces $X$ to describe mirror symmetry. The action of this Fourier-Mukai transform on the cohomology ring of $X$ reproduces relative T-duality and provides an infinitesimal isometry…
In this article we introduce a group-theoretical point of view for the design of magnetic optical achromats based on symmetry. As examples we use two-cell repetitive achromats and four-cell achromats employing mirror symmetry.
This paper explores homological mirror symmetry for weighted blowups of toric varieties. It will be shown that both the A-model and B-model categories have natural semiorthogonal decompositions. An explicit equivalence of the right…
We review recent findings on spin glass models. Both the equilibrium properties and the dynamic properties are covered. We focus on progress in theoretical, in particular numerical, studies, while its relationship to real magnetic materials…
