For each elliptic curve A over the rational numbers we construct a 2-periodic S^1-equivariant cohomology theory E whose cohomology ring is the sheaf cohomology of A; the homology of the sphere of the representation z^n is the cohomology of…
In the quests to uncovering the fundamental structures that underlie some of the asymptotic Swampland conjectures we initiate the general study of asymptotic period vectors of Calabi- Yau manifolds. Our strategy is to exploit the…
In this paper we construct a non-trivial element in the higher Griff{}iths group $Griff ^{3,2}$ for the generic abelian fourfold $A^4$ with polarization of type $(1,2,2,2)$. The key idea is to use that $A^4$ can be realized as a generalized…
We make an exact field theoretical computation of the conformal anomaly for two-dimensional submanifold observables. By including a scalar field in the definition for the Wilson surface, as appropriate for a spontaneously broken A_1 theory,…
Let $S$ be a boundaryless infinite-type surface with finitely many ends and consider an end-periodic homeomorphism $f$ of S. The end-periodicity of $f$ ensures that $M_f$, its associated mapping torus, has a compactification as a…
We show that for any constructible sheaf F on a smooth algebraic variety X over a field of arbitrary characteristic its singular support SS(F) is equidimensional of dimension dim X. Here SS(F) is the minimal closed subset of the cotangent…
We construct a birational model of the generalised Kummer fourfold of the Jacobian of a genus two curve, based on a geometric interpretation of the addition law on this Jacobian, obtained by the properties of the linear system of cubics on…
Let \(E\) be a finite-dimensional real vector space. We study invertible objects in the monoidal category of constructible sheaves on \(E\), endowed with the convolution product \(\star\). We show that the inverse of an invertible…
Let $(G,X)$ be a Shimura pair of Hodge type such that $G$ is the Mumford--Tate group of some elements of $X$. We assume that for each simple factor $G_0$ of $G^{\ad}$ there exists a simple factor of $G_{0\dbR}$ which is compact. Let $N\Ge…
Let $\mathrm{Mod}(S_g)$ be the mapping class group of the closed orientable surface $S_g$ of genus $g\geq 2$. In this paper, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions under which two torsion elements in $\mathrm{Mod}(S_g)$ will have…
We consider the question of when a Jacobian of a curve of genus $2g$ admits a $(2,2)$-isogeny to two polarized dimension $g$ abelian varieties. We find that one of them must be a Jacobian itself and, if the associated curve is…
In this article, we examine the arithmetic aspect of the Kummer-surface-type CY 3-folds $\hat{T/G}$, characterized by the crepant resolution of 3-torus-orbifold $T/G$ with only isolated singularities. Up to isomorphisms, there are only two…
Elkies proved the infinitude of supersingular primes for elliptic curves over real number fields. We generalize Elkies' result to some abelian fourfolds in Mumford's families, and more generally, to certain families of Kuga-Satake abelian…
We consider the connections among algebraic cycles, abelian varieties, and stable rationality of smooth projective varieties in positive characteristic. Recently Voisin constructed two new obstructions to stable rationality for rationally…
We develop the formalism of fermionic matrix product states (fMPS) and show how irreducible fMPS fall in two different classes, related to the different types of simple $\mathbb{Z}_2$ graded algebras, which are physically distinguished by…
We determine which codimension two Hodge classes on $J\times J$, where $J$ is a general abelian surface, deform to Hodge classes on a family of abelian fourfolds of Weil type. If a Hodge class deforms, there is in general a unique such…
We outline a general algorithm for computing an explicit model over a number field of any curve of genus 2 whose (unpolarized) Jacobian is isomorphic to the product of two elliptic curves with CM by the same order in an imaginary quadratic…
Let $S$ be the special fibre of a Shimura variety of Hodge type, with good reduction at a place above $p$. We give an alternative construction of the zip period map for $S$, which is used to define the Ekedahl-Oort strata of $S$. The method…
In this paper, we investigate the construction of two moduli stacks of Kummer varieties. The first one is the stack $\mathcal K^{\text{abs}}_g$ of abstract Kummer varieties and the second one is the stack $\mathcal K^{\text{em}}_g$ of…
We construct infinite new classes of $AdS_4\times S^1\times S^5$ solutions of type IIB string theory which have non-trivial $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ monodromy along the $S^1$ direction. The solutions are supersymmetric and holographically dual,…
