Supersymmetric theories are reviewed in the context of field theories. The gauge hierarchy problem in attempting the unification of all fundamental interactions is the strongest motivation of modern development of supersymmetry. Starting…
We develop the intersection theory of non-archimedean analytic spaces and prove the projection formula and the GAGA principle. As an application, we naturally define the category of finite correspondences of analytic spaces.
The Grassmannians of lines in projective N-space, G(1,N), are embedded by way of the Pl"ucker embedding in the projective space P(\bigwedge^2 C^{N+1}). Let H^l be a general l-codimensional linear subspace in this projective space. We…
We consider supersymmetric theories where the standard-model quark and lepton fields are localized on a "3-brane" in extra dimensions, while the gauge and Higgs fields propagate in the bulk. If supersymmetry is broken on another 3-brane,…
We give several algorithms addressing computations of intersections of conjugate subgroups.
We study some sub-Riemannian objects (such as horizontal connectivity, horizontal connection, horizontal tangent plane, horizontal mean curvature) in hypersurfaces of sub-Riemannian manifolds. We prove that if a connected hypersurface in a…
We develop a systematic framework for determining the nature of exceptional points of $n^{\rm th}$ order (EP$_n$s) in non-Hermitian (NH) systems, represented by complex square matrices. By expressing symmetry-preserving perturbations in the…
We study combinatorial aspects of the Schubert calculus of the affine Grassmannian Gr associated with SL(n,C). Our main results are: 1) Pieri rules for the Schubert bases of H^*(Gr) and H_*(Gr), which expresses the product of a special…
We prove a conjecture due to Sturmfels and Uhler concerning the degree of the projective variety associated to the Gaussian graphical model of the cycle. We involve new methods based on the intersection theory in the space of complete…
A central problem in liaison theory is to decide whether every arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay subscheme of projective $n$-space can be linked by a finite number of arithmetically Gorenstein schemes to a complete intersection. We show that…
We provide explicit counterexamples to the so-called Complement Problem in every dimension $n\geq3$, i.e. pairs of non-isomorphic irreducible hypersurfaces $H_1, H_2\subset\mathbb{C}^{n}$ whose complements $\mathbb{C}^{n}\setminus H_1$ and…
We provide formulas for the degrees of the projections of the locus of square matrices with given rank from linear spaces spanned by a choice of matrix entries. The motivation for these computations stem from applications to `matrix…
In this article we give a computational study of combinatorics of the discriminantal arrangements. The discriminantal arrangements are parametrized by two positive integers n and k such that n>k. The intersection lattice of the…
This is primarily an expository note showing that earlier work of Lai on CR geometry provides a clean interpretation, in terms of a Gauss map, for an adjunction formula for embedded surfaces in an almost complex four manifold. We will see…
The Euler characteristic of a very affine variety encodes the algebraic complexity of solving likelihood (or scattering) equations on this variety. We study this quantity for the Grassmannian with $d$ hyperplane sections removed. We provide…
A congruence is a surface in the Grassmannian ${\rm Gr}(2, 4)$. In this paper, we consider the normalization of congruence of bitangents to a hypersurface in $\mathbb P^3$. We call it the Fano congruence of bitangents. We give a criterion…
It is proved that the roots of the derivative of a polynomial with quaternionic coefficients belong to the union of the intersections of sets defined in terms of certain projections of a polynomial. The result strengthens the quaternion…
In this paper, we analyze the Hessian locus associated to a general cubic hypersurface, by describing for every $n$ its singular locus and its desingularization. The strategy is based on strong connections between the Hessian and the…
A generalization of the non-Abelian version of the $CP^{N-1}$ models (also known as Grassmannian models) is presented. The generalization helps accommodate a partial breaking of the non-Abelian gauge symmetry. Constituents of the composite…
We study rotational surfaces in Euclidean 3-space whose Gauss curvature is given as a prescribed function of its Gauss map. By means of a phase plane analysis and under mild assumptions on the prescribed function, we generalize the…
