On a smooth manifold, we associate to any closed differential form a mapping cone complex. The cohomology of this mapping cone complex can vary with the de Rham cohomology class of the closed form. We present a novel Morse theoretical…

This paper, together with Part II, expands the results of math.DG/9803051. In Part I we study the twisted index theory of elliptic operators on orbifold covering spaces of compact good orbifolds, which are invariant under a projective…

We study correlation functions in the complex fermion SYK model. We focus, specifically, on the h = 2 mode which explicitly breaks conformal invariance and exhibits the chaotic behaviour. We explicitly compute fermion six-point function and…

We give explicit formulas for Whittaker functions for the class one principal series representations of the orthogonal groups $ SO_{2n+1}(\R) $ of odd degree. Our formulas are similar to the recursive formulas for Whittaker functions on…

With the smooth action of a connected compact Lie group G, we realize the G-invariant Thom-Smale complex in an analytic way using the G-invariant Witten instanton complex. Both complexes are associated to a specific Morse-Bott function on a…

We study the Coh zeta function for a family of inert quadratic orders, which we conjecture to be given by $t$-deformed Bressoud $q$-series. This completes a trilogy connecting the zeta functions of ramified and split quadratic orders to the…

Using twisted Fock spaces, we formulate and study two twisted versions of the n-point correlation functions of Bloch-Okounkov, and then identify them with q-expectation values of certain functions on the set of (odd) strict partitions. We…

The cohomology groups of line bundles over complex tori (or abelian varieties) are classically studied invariants of these spaces. In this article, we compute the cohomology groups of line bundles over various holomorphic, non-commutative…

The classical Szeg\H{o}-Verblunsky theorem relates integrability of the logarithm of the absolutely continuous part of a probability measure on the circle to square summability of the sequence of recurrence coefficients for the orthogonal…

By a Morse function on a compact manifold with boundary we mean a real-valued function without critical points near the boundary such that its critical points as well as the critical points of its restriction to the boundary are all…

We study the moduli space of meromorphic 1-forms on complex algebraic curves having at most simple poles with fixed nonzero residues. We interpret the Bergman tau function on this moduli space as a section of a line bundle and study its…

We generalize Baker-Bowler's theory of matroids over tracts to orthogonal matroids, define orthogonal matroids with coefficients in tracts in terms of Wick functions, orthogonal signatures, circuit sets, and orthogonal vector sets, and…

For continuously orbit equivalent one-sided topological Markov shifts $(X_A,\sigma_A)$ and $(X_B,\sigma_B)$, their eventually periodic points and cocycle functions are studied. As a result we directly construct an isomorphism between their…

Let M be the moduli space of SO(r)-bundles on a curve, and L the determinant bundle on M. We define an isomorphism of H^0(M,L) onto the dual of the space of r-th order theta functions on the Jacobian of C. This isomorphism identifies the…

If a (possibly finite) compact Lie group acts effectively, locally linearly, and homologically trivially on a closed, simply-connected four-manifold with second Betti number at least three, then it must be isomorphic to a subgroup of S^1 x…

For a graph $G$, its Tutte symmetric function $XB_G$ generalizes both the Tutte polynomial $T_G$ and the chromatic symmetric function $X_G$. We may also consider $XB$ as a map from the $t$-extended Hopf algebra $\mathbb{G}[t]$ of labelled…

Type-A toric varieties may be obtained as GIT quotients with respect to a torus action with weights corresponding to roots of the group $SL(k)$ for some $k>1$. These varieties appear in various important applications, in particular, as…

We report on some properties of the $\xi(s)$ function and its value on the critical line, $\Xi(t)=\xi\left(\tfrac{1}{2}+it\right)$. First, we present some identities that hold for the log derivatives of a holomorphic function. We then…

We investigate the critical points of the basic (quasi-)modular forms $E_2$, $E_4$, and $E_6$. They occur where some associated polymorphic functions have poles. By an explicit description of these polymorphic functions as conformal maps,…

We discuss the geometrical connection between 2D conformal field theories, random walks on hyperbolic Riemann surfaces and knot theory. For the wide class of CFTs with monodromies being the discrete subgroups of SL(2,R), the determination…
