We investigate the interactions of discrete zero-form and one-form global symmetries in (1+1)d theories. Focus is put on the interactions that the symmetries can have on each other, which in this low dimension result in 2-group symmetries…
We give simple characterizations of contact 1-forms in terms of Dirac structures. We also relate normal almost contact structures to the theory of Dirac structures.
We provide normal forms for singularities of analytic hypersurfaces in $({\mathbb C}^n,0)$, using holomorphic vector fields.
This talk is based on a recent paper$^{1}$ of ours. In an attempt to understand three-dimensional conformal field theories, we study in detail one such example --the large $N$ limit of the $O(N)$ non-linear sigma model at its non-trivial…
This paper investigates the relationship between the solvability of first-order differential equations and the topology of the underlying domain through the lens of de\,Rham cohomology. We analyze the conditions under which a closed 1-form…
In this revised version, applying a general renormalization procedure for formal self-maps, producing a formal normal form simpler than the classical Poincar\'e-Dulac normal form, we shall give a complete list of normal forms for…
We give unique analytic "normal forms" for germs of a holomorphic vector field of the complex plane in the neighborhood of an isolated singularity of saddle-node type having a convergent formal separatrix. We specifically address the…
Bourgeois proved in [5] that odd-dimensional tori admit a contact structure. We shall prove a more general result: Any odd-dimensional parallelisable closed manifold admits a contact structure. This implies that a solvmanifold $\Gamma…
Given an n-dimensional variety Z with rational singularities, we conjecture that for a resolution of singularities whose reduced exceptional divisor E has simple normal crossings, the (n-1)-th higher direct image of the sheaf of…
We construct all possible noncommutative deformations of a Kleinian singularity ${\mathbb C}^2/\Gamma$ of type $D_n$ in terms of generators and relations, and solve the problem of when two deformations are isomorphic. We prove that all…
We classify isolated hypersurface singularities $f\in K[[x_1,..., x_n]]$, $K$ an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$, which are simple w.r.t. right equivalence, that is, which have no moduli up to analytic coordinate change.…
Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open interval, let $p>1$ and $\gamma>0$, and let $m:\Omega\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$ be a function that may change sign in $\Omega $. In this article we study the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions for…
The following problem is addressed: A $3$-manifold $M$ is endowed with a triple $\Omega = \big(\Omega^1,\Omega^2,\Omega^3\big)$ of closed $2$-forms. One wants to construct a coframing $\omega = \big(\omega^1,\omega^2,\omega^3\big)$ of $M$…
Let $V$ be a finite dimensional vector space over a field $\mathrm{k}$ of characteristic $0$. Let $A$ be a linear mapping of $V$ into itself. This paper gives a normal form for $A$, which gives a better description of the structure of $A$…
A general method has been developed to solve the Schr\"odinger equation for an arbitrary derivative of the $\delta$-function potential in 1-d using cutoff regularization. The work treats both the relativistic and nonrelativistic cases. A…
Let $(X,0)$ be an isolated complete intersection complex singularity ($X$ can also be smooth at 0). Let $K$ be its link, $\cal X$ its canonical contact structure and $\D_X$ the complex vector bundle associated to $\cal X$. We prove that the…
The short-distance singularity of the product of a composite scalar field that deforms a field theory and an arbitrary composite field can be expressed geometrically by the beta functions, anomalous dimensions, and a connection on the…
Given a manifold M with a submanifold N, the deformation space D(M,N) is a manifold with a submersion to R whose zero fiber is the normal bundle, and all other fibers are equal to M. This article uses deformation spaces to study the local…
We study non-trivial deformations of the natural action of the Lie superalgebra $mathcalK(1)$ of contact vector fields on the (1,1)-dimensional superspace $mathbbR^{1|1}$ of th espace of symbols. We calculate obstructions for integrability…
We investigate simplicial complexes deterministically growing from a single vertex. In the first step, a vertex and an edge connecting it to the primordial vertex are added. The resulting simplicial complex has a 1-dimensional simplex and…
