This is a survey of some recent advances in the theory of singular traces in which the authors have played some part and which were inspired by questions raised by the book of Alain Connes (Noncommutative Geometry, Academic Press 1994).…

In this letter we present some new results on modular theory and its application in quantum field theory. In doing this we develop some new proposals how to generalize concepts of geometrical action. Therefore the spirit of this letter is…

We verify if Gausssian curvature of surfaces and normal curvature of curves in surfaces introduced by Diniz-Veloso arXiv:1210.7110 and by Balogh-Tyson-Vecchi arXiv:1604.00180 to prove Gauss-Bonnet theorems in Heisenberg space $\mathbb H^1$…

In this paper, we study properties of the algebras of planar quasi-invariants. These algebras are Cohen-Macaulay and Gorenstein in codimension one. Using the technique of matrix problems, we classify all Cohen-Macaulay modules of rank one…

This paper is concerned with the problem of prescribing Gaussian curvature and geodesic curvature in a compact surface with boundary with conical singularities and corners. Solutions are obtained using a new variational formulation,…

We explore new connections between the fields and local observables in two dimensional chiral conformal field theory. We show that in a broad class of examples, the von Neumann algebras of local observables (a conformal net) can be obtained…

This article is an introductory survey of index theory in the context of noncommutative geometry, written for the occasion of the 70th birthday of Alain Connes.

We show that measures of irrationality on very general codimension two complete intersections and very general complete intersection surfaces are multiplicative in the degrees of the defining equations. This confirms some cases of a…

We propose a systematic scheme for computing the variation of rearrangement operators arising in the recently developed spectral geometry on noncommutative tori and $\theta$-deformed Riemannian manifolds. It can be summarized as a category…

We establish the optimal regularity for the distortion of inverses of mappings of finite distortion with logarithm-iterated style subexponentially integrable distortion, which generalizes the Theorem 1. of [J. Gill, Ann. Acad. Sci. Fenn.…

This is a survey article prepared for the submission to "Handbook of moduli". The following topics are discussed: (i) Basic facts and examples of resolutions for nilpotent orbit (ii) Q-factorial terminalizations of nilpotent orbit closures…

When in general geometric backgrounds the metric is accompanied by torsion, the metric conformal properties should correspondingly be followed by analogous torsional conformal properties; however a combined metric torsional conformal…

The authors study in detail new types of varieties with degenerate Gauss maps: varieties with multiple foci and their particular case, the so-called twisted cones. They prove an existence theorem for twisted cones and describe their…

We study the motion of smooth, strictly convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^n$ expanding in the direction of their normal vector field with speed depending on Gauss curvature and support function.

In this paper, we study the conformal measures of a normal subgroup of a cocompact Fuchsian group. In particular, we relate the extremal conformal measures to the eigenmeasures of a suitable Ruelle operator. Using Ancona's theorem, adapted…

We introduce the notion of amenability for affine algebras. We characterize amenability by Folner-sequences, paradoxicality and the existence of finitely invariant dimension-measures. Then we extend the results of Rowen on ranks, from…

Families of conformal field theories are naturally endowed with a Riemannian geometry which is locally encoded by correlation functions of exactly marginal operators. We show that the curvature of such conformal manifolds can be computed…

In this article, we give an overview over recent developments in the mathematical treatment of topological insulators using coarse geometry.

Roughly, a conformal tiling of a Riemann surface is a tiling where each tile is a suitable conformal image of a Euclidean regular polygon. In 1997, Bowers and Stephenson constructed an edge-to-edge conformal tiling of the complex plane…

We present a graded-geometric approach to modular classes of Lie algebroids and their generalizations, introducing in this setting an idea of relative modular class of a Dirac structure for a certain type of Courant algebroids, called…
