Let (X,D) be a D-scheme in the sense of Beilinson and Bernstein, given by an algebraic variety X and a morphism O_X -> D of sheaves of rings on X. We consider noncommutative deformations of quasi-coherent sheaves of left D-modules on X, and…
We consider various 2D lattice equations and their integrability, from the point of view of 3D consistency, Lax pairs and B\"acklund transformations. We show that these concepts, which are associated with integrability, are not strictly…
It has been recently discovered that the $\text{T}\bar{\text{T}}$ deformation is closely-related to Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity. At classical level, the introduction of this perturbation induces an interaction between the stress-energy tensor…
In this paper we study the integral representation in the space SBD(O) of special functions with bounded deformation of some L^1-norm lower semicontinuous functionals invariant with respect to rigid motions.
The classical integrability the O(N) nonlinear sigma model on a half-line is examined, and the existence of an infinity of conserved charges in involution is established for the free boundary condition. For the case N=3 other possible…
Motivated by the two-dimensional massive gravity description of $T\overline{T}$ deformations, we propose a direct generalization in $d$ dimensions. Our methodology indicates that all terms up to order $d$ are present in the deformation. In…
In this paper we develop a formalism for working with twisted realizations of vertex and conformal algebras. As an example, we study realizations of conformal algebras by twisted formal power series. The main application of our technique is…
Let $k$ be a field and let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional $k$-algebra. We prove that every bounded complex $V^\bullet$ of finitely generated $\Lambda$-modules has a well-defined versal deformation ring $R(\Lambda,V^\bullet)$ which is a…
We classify possible supersymmetry-preserving relevant, marginal, and irrelevant deformations of unitary superconformal theories in $d \geq 3$ dimensions. Our method only relies on symmetries and unitarity. Hence, the results are model…
We analyse the $T\bar{T}$ deformation of 2d CFTs in a special double-scaling limit, of large central charge and small deformation parameter. In particular, we derive closed formulae for the deformation of the product of left and right…
Using embedding of complex curves in the complex projective plane $\bf{P }^{2}$, we develop a \emph{non planar} topological 3-vertex formalism for topological strings on the family of local Calabi-Yau threefolds $X^{(m,-m,0)…
We calculate the background field equations for the T-duality symmetric string building on previous work by including the effect of the Dilaton up to two-loops. Inclusion of the Dilaton allows us to obtain the full beta functionals of the…
We study vacua, walls and three-pronged junctions of mass-deformed nonlinear sigma models on $SO(2N)/U(N)$ and $Sp(N)/U(N)$ for generic $N$. We review and discuss the on-shell component Lagrangians of the ${\mathcal{N}}=2$ nonlinear sigma…
This paper proposes a method to estimate the locations of grid handles in free-form deformation (FFD) while preserving the local shape characteristics of the 2D/3D input model embedded into the grid, named locality-preserving FFD (lp-FFD).…
Meta-conformal transformations are constructed as dynamical symmetries of the linear transport equation in $d$ spatial dimensions. In one and two dimensions, the associated Lie algebras are infinite-dimensional and isomorphic to the direct…
It is proved that whenever two aperiodic repetitive tilings with finite local complexity have homeomorphic tiling spaces, their associated complexity functions are asymptotically equivalent in a certain sense (which implies, if the…
We introduce a notion of $Q$-algebra that can be considered as a generalization of the notion of $Q$-manifold (a supermanifold equipped with an odd vector field obeying $\{Q,Q\} =0$). We develop the theory of connections on modules over…
We consider several classes of $\sigma$-models (on groups and symmetric spaces, $\eta$-models, $\lambda$-models) with local couplings that may depend on the 2d coordinates, e.g. on time $\tau$. We observe that (i) starting with a…
We classify deformations of $\mathfrak{osp}(2|2)-$module structure on the spaces of symbols $\mathfrak{S}_d^2$ of differential operators acting on the space of weighted densities $\mathfrak{F}_{\lambda}^{2}$.
We describe noncommutative geometric aspects of twisted deformations, in particular of the spheres in Connes and Landi [8] and in Connes and Dubois Violette [7], by using the differential and integral calculus on these spaces that is…
