In this paper, we consider the higher Br\'ezin--Gross--Witten tau-functions, given by the matrix integrals. For these tau-functions we construct the canonical Kac--Schwarz operators, quantum spectral curves, and $W^{(3)}$-constraints. For…

Let $p(z,w)$ be a polynomial in two variables. We call the solution of the algebraic equation $p(z,w) = 0$ the algebraic correspondence. We regard it as the graph of the multivalued function $z \mapsto w$ defined implicitly by $p(z,w) = 0$.…

Suppose $A=[a_{ij}]\in \mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$ is a complex $n \times n$ matrix and $B\in \mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ is a bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. We show that $w(A\otimes B)\leq w(C),$ where…

Let $C$ be a nodal curve and $L$ be an invertible sheaf on $C$. Let $\alpha_{L}:C\dashrightarrow J_{C}$ be the degree-$1$ rational Abel map, which takes a smooth point $Q\in C$ to $\left[ m_{Q}\otimes L\right] $ in the Jacobian of $C$. In…

The system of $N$ classical particles on the line with the Weierstrass $\wp$ function as potential is known to be completely integrable. Recently D'Hoker and Phong found a beautiful parameterization by the polynomial of degree $N$ of the…

A telegraphic survey of some of the standard results and conjectures about the set $C({\bf Q})$ of rational points on a smooth projective absolutely connected curve $C$ over ${\bf Q}$.

We define, answering a question of Sarnak in his letter to Bombieri, a symplectic pairing on the spectral interpretation (due to Connes and Meyer) of the zeroes of Riemann's zeta function. This pairing gives a purely spectral formulation of…

The spectral curve is the key ingredient in the modern theory of classical integrable systems. We develop a construction of the ``quantum spectral curve'' and argue that it takes the analogous structural and unifying role on the quantum…

For each $t\in\mathbb{Q}\setminus\{-1,0,1\}$, define an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ by \begin{align*} E_t:y^2=x(x+1)(x+t^2). \end{align*} Using a formula for the root number $W(E_t)$ as a function of $t$ and assuming some standard…

Let E be a natural operator associated to the curvature tensor of a pseudo-Riemannian manifold. This survey article studies when the spectrum, or more generally the real Jordan normal form, of E is constant on the natural domain of…

For a Weyl group W and its reflection representation mathfrak{h}, we find the character and Hilbert series for a quotient ring of C[mathfrak{h} oplus mathfrak{h}^*] by an ideal containing the W--invariant polynomials without constant term.…

The Haar functional on the quantum $SU(2)$ group is the analogue of invariant integration on the group $SU(2)$. If restricted to a subalgebra generated by a self-adjoint element the Haar functional can be expressed as an integral with a…

Let $\Theta_{3} (z):= \sum_{n\in\mathbb{Z}} \exp (i \pi n^2 z)$ be the standard Jacobi theta function, which is holomorphic and zero-free in the upper half-plane $\mathbb{H}$, and takes positive values along the positive imaginary axis. We…

Using a geometric approach involving Riemann surface orbifolds, we provide lower bounds for the genus of an irreducible algebraic curve of the form $E_{A,B}:\, A(x)-B(y)=0$, where $A, B\in\mathbb C(z)$. We also investigate "series" of…

We use the formalism of the Bergman tau functions to study the geometry of moduli spaces of holomorphic quadratic differentials on complex algebraic curves. We introduce two natural tau functions and interpret them as holomorphic sections…

Let $J$ be the Jacobian of a smooth projective curve. We define a natural action of the Lie algebra of polynomial Hamiltonian vector fields on the plane, vanishing at the origin, on the Chow group of $J$ with rational coefficients. Using…

We study higher rank Jacobi partial and false theta functions (generalizations of the classical partial and false theta functions) associated to positive definite rational lattices. In particular, we focus our attention on certain Kostant's…

Suppose that c is an operator on a Hilbert Space H such that the von Neumann algebra N generated by c is finite. Suppose that tau is a faithful normal tracial state on N. Let B denote the spectal scale of c with respect to tau. We show that…

Let $J$ be the Jacobian of a smooth projective complex curve $C$ which admits non-trivial automorphisms, and let $A(J)$ be the ring of algebraic cycles on $J$ with rational coefficients modulo algebraic equivalence. We present new…

We study an interplay between operator algebras and geometry of rational elliptic curves. Namely, let $\mathcal{O}_B$ be the Cuntz-Krieger algebra given by square matrix $B=(b-1, ~1, ~b-2, ~1)$, where $b$ is an integer greater or equal to…
