Metrics on Grassmannians have a wide array of applications: machine learning, wireless communication, computer vision, etc. But the available distances between subspaces of distinct dimensions present problems, and the dimensional asymmetry…
The orthogonal decomposition of the Webster curvature provides us a way to characterize some canonical metrics on a pseudo-Hermitian manifold. We derive some subelliptic differential inequalities from the Weitzenb\"ock formulas for the…
We study the geometry of the secant and tangential variety of a cominuscule and minuscule variety, e.g. a Grassmannian or a spinor variety. Using methods inspired by statistics we provide an explicit local isomorphism with a product of an…
We present the proceedings from a 2-day workshop held at Swinburne University on the 24th-25th of May 2005. The workshop participants highlighted current Australian research on both theoretical and observational aspects of galaxy groups.…
We classify simply connected compact Sasaki manifolds of dimension $2n+1$ with positive transverse bisectional curvature. In particular, the K\"ahler cone corresponding to such manifolds must be bi-holomorphic to $\C^{n+1}\backslash \{0\}$.…
A series of examples of toric Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifolds is constructed. These are submanifolds of toric 3-Sasaki 7-manifolds and such a Sasaki-Einstein 5-manifold corresponds uniquely to a toric 3-Sasaki 7-manifold. This produces examples…

This is a write-up of some lectures I gave in the Fall of 2021 at the Fields Institute in Toronto, as part of the Thematic Programme on Trends in Pure and Applied Model Theory. The goal of the module was to give a quick introduction to the…
Formulated problems concern the following topics: (1) Birationally nonequivalent linear actions; (2) Cayley degrees of simple algebraic groups; (3) Singularities of two-dimensional quotients.
These notes contain a brief introduction to the construction of toric Calabi--Yau hypersurfaces and complete intersections with a focus on issues relevant for string duality calculations. The last two sections can be read independently and…
This is an overview of our series of papers on the modular generalized Springer correspondence. It is an expansion of a lecture given by the second author in the Fifth Conference of the Tsinghua Sanya International Mathematics Forum, Sanya,…
In this article we study a class of normal{\theta}complex{\theta}contact{\theta}metric{\theta}manifold which is called a complex Sasakian manifold. This kind of manifold has a globally defined complex contact form and normal complex contact…
These are expanded notes from a four lecture mini-course given by the author at the Spring School on Non-archimedean geometry and Eigenvarieties, held at the University of Heidelberg in March 2023. The course discusses coherent sheaves,…
Let $G$ be a real-reductive Lie group and let $G_1$ and $G_2$ be two subgroups given by involutions. We show how the technique of gradient maps can be used in order to obtain a new proof of Matsuki's parametrization of the closed double…
The main purpose of this work is to generalize the $S^3_\bfw$ Sasaki join construction $M\star_\bfl S^3_\bfw$ described in \cite{BoTo14a} when the Sasakian structure on $M$ is regular, to the general case where the Sasakian structure is…
This is a renovated list of open problems, to appear in: "Affine Algebraic Geometry" conference Proceedings volume in Contemporary Mathematics series of the Amer. Math. Soc. Ed. by Jaime Gutierrez, Vladimir Shpilrain, and Jie-Tai Yu.
We propose several open problems on GKK tau-matrices raised by examples showing that some such matrices are unstable
Walczak formula is a very nice tool for understanding the geometry of a Riemannian manifold equipped with two orthogonal complementary distributions. Svensson [7] has shown that this formula simplifies to a Bochner type formula when we are…
Introductory lectures on Extra Dimensions delivered at TASI 2004. The emphasis is on basic mechanisms rather than specific models.
In this paper, an open problem in the multidimensional complex analysis is pesented that arises in the investigation of the regularity properties of Fourier integral operators and in the regularity theory for hyperbolic partial differential…
