We develop a homotopy theory of $L_\infty$ algebras based on the Lawrence-Sullivan construction, a complete differential graded Lie algebra which, as we show, satisfies the necessary properties to become the right cylinder in this category.…
The minimal model program suggests a compactification of the moduli space of hyperplane arrangements which is a moduli space of stable pairs. Here, a stable pair consists of a scheme X which is a degeneration of projective space and a…
We consider the correlator of two concentric circular Wilson loops with equal radii for arbitrary spatial and internal separation at strong coupling within a defect version of $\mathcal{N}=4$ SYM. Compared to the standard Gross-Ooguri phase…
This article is the second of a pair of articles about the Goldman symplectic form on the PGL(V)-Hitchin component of a closed, connected, oriented, hyperbolic surface S. We show that any ideal triangulation on S and any compatible bridge…
We introduce and study a $d$-dimensional generalization of Hamiltonian cycles in graphs - the Hamiltonian $d$-cycles in $K_n^d$ (the complete simplicial $d$-complex over a vertex set of size $n$). Those are the simple $d$-cycles of a…
We prove several results of the following type: given finite dimensional normed space V possessing certain geometric property there exists another space X having the same property and such that (1) log (dim X) = O(log (dim V)) and (2) every…
We present mixing ergodic automorphisms of a space with sigma-finite measure whose symmetric tensor squares have simple spectra. This property is of interest in connection with dynamical spectral problems of A.N. Kolmogorov and V.A.…
We prove that the automorphism group of a general complete intersection $X$ in a projective space is trivial with a few well-understood exceptions. We also prove that the automorphism group of a complete intersection $X$ acts on the…
We prove that a large class of Poincar\'e duality pairs admit rational models (in the sense of Sullivan) of a particularly nice form associated to some Poincar\'e duality CDGA. These models have applications in particular to the…
Let G be a connected semisimple group over a non-Archimedean local field. For every faithful, geometrically irreducible linear representation of G we define a compactification of the associated Bruhat-Tits building X(G). This yields a…
We investigate the topological theory obtained by twisting the N=(2,2) supersymmetric nonlinear sigma model with target a bihermitian space with torsion. For the special case in which the two complex structures commute, we show that the…
In this article, we first prove a general result in topology which states that every quasi-component of a quasi-spectral space is connected. \\ As an application, the structure of the connected components of every quasi-compact…
We give a way of constructing real variations of mixed Hodge structures over compact K\"ahler manifolds by using mixed Hodge structures on Sullivan's $1$-minimal models of certain differential graded algebras associated with real variations…
The space of complete collineations is a compactification of the space of matrices of fixed dimension and rank, whose boundary is a divisor with normal crossings. It was introduced in the 19th century and has been used to solve many…
For a simplicial complex $\Delta$, we introduce a simplicial complex attached to $\Delta$, called the expansion of $\Delta$, which is a natural generalization of the notion of expansion in graph theory. We are interested in knowing how the…
This paper is a systematic approach to the construction of coronas (i.e. Higson dominated boundaries at infinity) of combable spaces. We introduce three additional properties for combings: properness, coherence and expandingness. Properness…
We compute the completion of the groups SL_n(Z[t]) and SL_n(Z[t,t^{-1}]) relative to the obvious homomorphisms to SL_n(Q); this is a generalization of the classical Malcev completion. We also make partial computations of the rational second…
The main result of this paper is the construction of a family of superintegrable Hamiltonian systems on moduli spaces of flat connections on a principle $G$-bundle on a surface. The moduli space is a Poisson variety with Atiyah-Bott Poisson…
We define symmetric spaces in arbitrary dimension and over arbitrary non-discrete topological fields $\K$, and we construct manifolds and symmetric spaces associated to topological continuous quasi-inverse Jordan pairs and -triple systems.…
If $(X, \omega)$ is a symplectic manifold, and $\Sigma$ is a smooth symplectic submanifold Poincar\'e dual to a positive multiple of $\omega$, $X \setminus \Sigma$ admits a compactification as a Liouville domain, which we then complete to…
