We compute certain two-point functions in D=4, ${\cal N}=4$, SU(N) SYM theory on the Coulomb branch using SUGRA/SYM duality and find an infinite set of first order poles at masses of order $({\rm Higgs~scale})/(g_{YM} \sqrt{N})$.

We present a covariant model of a spherically symmetric black hole with corrections motivated by loop quantum gravity. The effective modifications, parametrized by a positive constant $\lambda$, are implemented through a canonical…

Maps between manifolds $M^m\to N^{m+\ell}$ ($\ell>0$) have multiple points, and more generally, multisingularities. The closure of the set of points where the map has a particular multisingularity is called the multisingularity locus. There…

In this paper, we study certain compact 4-manifolds with non-negative sectional curvature $K$. If $s$ is the scalar curvature and $W_+$ is the self-dual part of Weyl tensor, then it will be shown that there is no metric $g$ on $S^2 \times…

We construct a quantization of the moduli space $\mathcal{GH}_\Lambda(S\times\mathbb{R})$ of maximal globally hyperbolic Lorentzian metrics on $S\times \mathbb{R}$ with constant sectional curvature $\Lambda$, for a punctured surface $S$.…

Among all metrics on $\mathbb S^d$ with $d>4$ that are conformal to the standard metric and have positive scalar curvature, the total $\sigma_2$-curvature, normalized by the volume, is uniquely (up to M\"obius transformations) minimized by…

We obtain global $W^{2,\delta}$ estimates for a type of singular fully nonlinear elliptic equations where the right hand side term belongs to $L^\infty$. The main idea of the proof is to slide paraboloids from below and above to touch the…

We show that for a very general class of curvature functions defined in the positive cone, the problem of finding a complete strictly locally convex hypersurface in $H^n+1$ satisfying $f(\kappa)=\sigma\in(0, 1)$ with a prescribed asymptotic…

Motivated by the work of Li and Mantoulidis, we study singular metrics which are uniformly Euclidean $(L^\infty)$ on a compact manifold $M^n$ ($n\ge 3$) with negative Yamabe invariant $\sigma(M)$. It is well-known that if $g$ is a smooth…

We prove an analogue statement to an estimate by De Lellis-M\"uller in $\mathbb{R}^3$ on the standard Minkowski lightcone. More precisely, we show that under some additional assumptions, any spacelike cross section of the standard lightcone…

In this paper we continue the study of positive scalar curvature (psc) metrics on a depth-1 Thom-Mather stratified space $M_\Sigma$ with singular stratum $\beta M$ (a closed manifold of positive codimension) and associated link equal to…

In the first part we use Gromov's K--area to define the K--area homology which stabilizes into singular homology on the category of pairs of compact smooth manifolds. The second part treats the questions of certain curvature gaps. For…

Let $M$ be a manifold and $\Lambda$ a compact exact connected Lagrangian submanifold of $T^*M$. We can associate with $\Lambda$ a conic Lagrangian submanifold $\Lambda'$ of $T^*(M\times R)$. We prove that there exists a canonical sheaf $F$…

This paper describes a fully covariant approach to harmonic superspace. It is based on the conformal superspace description of conformal supergravity and involves extending the supermanifold M^{4|8} by the tangent bundle of CP^1. The…

Let $Y$ be a closed $3$-manifold such that all flat $SU(2)$-connections on $Y$ are $non$-$degenerate$. In this article, we prove a Uhlenbeck-type compactness theorem on $Y$ for stable flat $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ connections satisfying an…

We prove that the affine closure of the cotangent bundle of the parabolic base affine space for $\mathrm{GL}_n$ or $\mathrm{SL}_n$ is a Coulomb branch, which confirms a conjecture of Bourget-Dancer-Grimminger-Hanany-Zhong. In particular, we…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold. Given a big cohomology class $\{\theta\}$, there is a natural equivalence relation on the space of $\theta$-psh functions giving rise to $\mathcal S(X,\theta)$, the space of singularity types of…

We demonstrate that the spatially homogeneous Landau-Coulomb equation exhibits global existence and uniqueness around the space $H^{-\f12}_3\cap L^1_{7}\cap L\log L$. Additionally, we furnish several quantitative assessments regarding the…

We study the equilibrium statistical mechanics of classical two-dimensional Coulomb systems living on a pseudosphere (an infinite surface of constant negative curvature). The Coulomb potential created by one point charge exists and goes to…

Generalising the chiral boundary conditions of $\mathbb{R}^{1,3}$ gravity for AdS$_4$ gravity, we derive chiral locally AdS$_4$ solutions in the Newman-Unti gauge consistent with a variational principle whose asymptotic symmetry algebra we…
