The study of Cowen-Douglas operators not only involves traditional operator-theoretic tools but also concepts and results from complex geometry on holomorphic vector bundles. We make use of the ratio of the metric matrices first considered…
To a finite quiver equipped with a positive integer on each of its vertices, we associate a holomorphic symplectic manifold having some parameters. This coincides with Nakajima's quiver variety with no stability parameter/framing if the…
We consider a subclass of the Cowen-Douglas class in which the problem of deciding whether two operators are similar becomes more manageable. A similarity criterion for Cowen-Douglas operators is known to be dependent on the trace of the…
We introduce new concepts in order to develop a general formalism for twisted differential operators in several variables. We investigate the notion of twisted coordinates on Huber rings that allows us to build various rings of twisted…
We present a Langlands dual realization of the putative category of affine character sheaves. Namely, we calculate the categorical center and trace (also known as the Drinfeld center and trace, or categorical Hochschild cohomology and…
The Coulomb phase of a quantum field theory, when present, illuminates the analysis of its line operators and one-form symmetries. For 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ field theories the low energy physics of this phase is encoded in the special K\"ahler…
Some linear integro-differential operators have old and classical representations as the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operators for linear elliptic equations, such as the 1/2-Laplacian or the generator of the boundary process of a reflected…
In the previous papers, we studied the 't Hooft-Polyakov (TP) monopole configurations in the U(2) gauge theory on the fuzzy 2-sphere,and showed that they have nonzero topological charge in the formalism based on the Ginsparg-Wilson (GW)…
The inverse nodal problem for Dirac type integro-differential operator with the spectral parameter in the boundary conditions is studied. We prove that dense subset of the nodal points determines the coefficients of differential part of…
We study moduli spaces of Higgs sheaves valued in line bundles and the associated Hitchin maps on surfaces. We first work out Picard groups of generic (very general) spectral varieties which holds for dimension of at least 2, i.e., a…
In this paper, the linear differential expression of order $n \ge 2$ with distribution coefficients of various singularity orders is considered. We obtain the associated matrix for the regularization of this expression. Furthermore, we…
An introduction to $N=2$ rigid and local supersymmetry is given. The construction of the actions of vector multiplets is reviewed, defining special K\"ahler manifolds. Symplectic transformations lead to either isometries or symplectic…
We explore the connection between the global symmetry quantum numbers of line defects and 't Hooft anomalies. Relative to local (point) operators, line defects may transform projectively under both internal and spacetime symmetries. This…
We generalize Roe's index theorem for graded generalized Dirac operators on amenable manifolds to multigraded elliptic uniform pseudodifferential operators. The generalization will follow from a local index theorem that is valid on any…
In this paper, a new criterion for the similarity of commuting tuples of operators on Hilbert spaces is introduced. As an application, we obtain a geometric similarity invariant of tuples in the Cowen-Douglas class which gives a partial…
We classify and construct $SL(n,\mathbb{R})$-intertwining differential operators $\mathcal{D}$ from a line bundle to a vector bundle over the real projective space $\mathbb{RP}^{n-1}$ by the F-method. This generalizes a classical result of…
We investigate 4D Chern-Simons theory with ADE gauge symmetries in the presence of interacting Wilson and 't Hooft line defects. We analyse the intrinsic properties of these lines' coupling and explicate the building of oscillator-type Lax…
We study the cohomology of certain local systems on moduli spaces of principally polarized abelian surfaces with a level 2 structure. The trace of Frobenius on the alternating sum of the \'etale cohomology groups of these local systems can…
The intersection of the 10-dimensional fuzzy conifold $Y_F^{10}$ with $S^5_F \times S^5_F$ is the compact 8-dimensional fuzzy space $X_F^8$. We show that $X_F^8$ is (the analogue of) a principal $U(1)\times U(1)$ bundle over fuzzy…
We study the index theory of hypoelliptic operators on Carnot manifolds -- manifolds whose Lie algebra of vector fields is equipped with a filtration induced from sub-bundles of the tangent bundle. A Heisenberg pseudodifferential operator,…
