The aim of this paper is to formulate a local systolic inequality for odd-symplectic forms (also known as Hamiltonian structures) and to establish it in some basic cases. Let $\Omega$ be an odd-symplectic form on an oriented closed manifold…

We show that the fundamental 4-form on a quaternionic contact manifold of dimension at least eleven is closed if and only if the torsion endomorphism of the Biquard connection vanishes. This condition characterizes quaternionic contact…

The critical behavior of the contact process in disordered and periodic binary 2d-lattices is investigated numerically by means of Monte Carlo simulations as well as via an analytical approximation and standard mean field theory.…

A conformal geometry determines a distinguished, potentially singular, variant of the usual Yamabe problem, where the conformal factor can change sign. When a smooth solution does change sign, its zero locus is a smoothly embedded…

We consider the Dirichlet problems for second order linear elliptic equations in non-divergence and divergence forms on a bounded domain $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \ge 2$: $$ -\sum_{i,j=1}^n a^{ij}D_{ij} u + b \cdot D u + cu = f…

We revisit the classic $O(N)$ symmetric scalar field theories in $d$ dimensions with interaction $(\phi^i \phi^i)^2$. For $2<d<4$ these theories flow to the Wilson-Fisher fixed points for any $N$. A standard large $N$ Hubbard-Stratonovich…

We carry on an analysis of the size of the contact surface of a Cheeger set $E$ with the boundary of its ambient space $\Omega$. We show that this size is strongly related to the regularity of $\partial \Omega$ by providing bounds on the…

The purpose of this paper is to study a class of double phase problems, with a singular term and a superlinear parametric term on the right-hand side. Using the method of Nehari manifold combined with the fibering maps, we prove that for…

Various topics related to the $O(N)$ model in one spacetime dimension (i.e. ordinary quantum mechanics) are considered. The focus is on a pedagogical presentation of quantum field theory methods in a simpler context where many exact results…

A result of Popa and Schnell shows that any holomorphic 1-form on a smooth complex projective variety of general type admits zeros. More generally, given a variety $X$ which admits $g$ pointwise linearly independent holomorphic 1-forms,…

Let $i\colon X\to \Pk^N$ be a projective manifold of dimension $n$ embedded in projective space $\Pk^N$, and let $L$ be the pull-back to $X$ of the line bundle $\Ok_{\Pk^N}(1)$. We construct global explicit Koppelman formulas on $X$ for…

We classify nontrivial deformations of the standard embedding of the Lie superalgebra K(1) of contact vector fields on the (1,1)-dimensional supercircle into the Lie superalgebra of superpseudodifferential operators on the supercircle. This…

The paper continues the analysis started in [Cora-Fioravanti-Vita-25,Fioravanti-24] on the local regularity theory for elliptic equations having coefficients which are degenerate or singular on some lower dimensional manifold. The model…

In these notes we study the Dirichlet problem for critical points of a convex functional of the form \[ F(u)=\int_{\Omega}\phi\left( \left\vert \nabla u\right\vert \right) , \] where $\Omega$ is a bounded domain of a complete Riemannian…

I study the renormalization of D-dimensional level-k Wess-Zumino-Witten theory with Stiefel-manifold target space $\mathrm{St}_{N,N-D-1} \cong \mathrm{SO}(N)/\mathrm{SO}(D+1)$, with a particular focus on $D = 3$. I investigate in particular…

Let X be an affine normal variety with a C^*-action having only positive weights. Assume that X_{reg} has a symplectic 2-form w of weight l. We prove that, when l is not zero, the w is a unique symplectic 2-form of weight l up to…

A local normal form theorem for smooth equivariant maps between Fr\'echet manifolds is established. Moreover, an elliptic version of this theorem is obtained. The proof these normal form results is inspired by the Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction…

We consider a compact pseudo-hermitian manifold (M,\theta, J), that is a manifold equipped with a contact form \theta and CR structure J. We consider a conformal deformation of the contact form to obtain a complete, singular contact form…

We provide a complete system of invariants for the formal classification of complex analytic unipotent germs of diffeomorphism at $\cn{n}$ fixing the orbits of a regular vector field. We reduce the formal classification problem to solve a…

It has been shown recently that extended supersymmetry in twisted first-order sigma models is related to twisted generalized complex geometry in the target. In the general case there are additional algebraic and differential conditions…
