We conjecture unimodality for some sequences of generalized Kronecker coefficients and prove it for partitions with at most two columns. The proof is based on a hard Lefschetz property for corresponding highest weight spaces. We also study…

In this paper, we prove the generalized Chen's conjecture for (F,F')-biharmonic map, which is a critical point of the transversal bienergy functional

We explicitly compute the diffeomorphism group of several types of linear foliations (with dense leaves) on the torus $T^n$, $n\geq 2$, namely codimension one foliations, flows, and the so-called non-quadratic foliations. We show in…

While not obvious from its initial motivation in linear algebra, there are many context where iterated traces can be defined. In this paper we prove a very general theorem about iterated 2-categorical traces. We show that many…

In analogy with the vector bundle theory we define universal and strongly universal Lefschetz fibrations over bounded surfaces. After giving a characterization of these fibrations we construct very special strongly universal Lefschetz…

This is a survey article on symplectically aspherical manifolds. The paper contains a discussion on constructions of symplectically aspherical manifolds, their topological properties and the role of this class in symplectic topology.…

We study semifinite harmonic functions on arbitrary branching graphs. We give a detailed exposition of an algebraic method which allows one to classify semifinite indecomposable harmonic functions on some multiplicative branching graphs.…

We construct using Lefschetz fibrations a large family of contact manifolds with the following properties: Any bounding contact embedding into an exact symplectic manifold satisfying a mild topological assumption is non-displaceable and…

We give an abstract version of the hard Lefschetz theorem, the Lefschetz decomposition and the Hodge-Riemann theorem for compact Kaehler manifolds.

We continue our exploration of local Double Field Theory (DFT) in terms of symplectic graded manifolds carrying compatible derivations and study the case of heterotic DFT. We start by developing in detail the differential graded manifold…

We sketch in this article a new theory, which we call Symplectic Field Theory or SFT, which provides an approach to Gromov-Witten invariants of symplectic manifolds and their Lagrangian submanifolds in the spirit of topological field…

The notions of holomorphic symplectic structures and hypercomplex structures on Courant algebroids are introduced and then proved to be equivalent. These generalize hypercomplex triples and holomorphic symplectic 2-forms on manifolds…

In this paper we show some Lefschetz-type theorems for the effective cone of Hyperk\"ahler varieties. In particular we are able to show that the inclusion of any smooth ample divisor induces an isomorphism of effective cones. Moreover we…

We investigate some combinatorial properties of convex polytopes simple in edges. For polytopes whose nonsimple vertices are located sufficiently far one from another, we prove an analog of the Hard Lefschetz theorem. It implies Stanley's…

Let (M,w,L) be a symplectic manifold endowed with a lagrangian foliation L. Liberman and Weinstein have shown that the leaves of L are endowed with an affine structure. In this paper we provide links between the theories of affine manifolds…

This paper defines a symplectic form on the infinite dimensional Fr\'echet manifold of framed curves of fixed length over a simply connected Riemannian manifold of constant curvature. The paper then considers Hamiltonian systems generated…

Log-symplectic structures are Poisson structures $\pi$ on $X^{2n}$ for which $\bigwedge^n \pi$ vanishes transversally. By viewing them as symplectic forms in a Lie algebroid, the $b$-tangent bundle, we use symplectic techniques to obtain…

We study the projective objects in an exact category naturally associated to a Coxeter system. We discuss an analog of the Kazhdan-Lusztig conjecture and show how it follows from a "genericity" conjecture and how the latter follows from a…

Let $\mathcal F$ be a Lie foliation on a closed manifold $M$ with structural Lie group $G$. Its transverse Lie structure can be considered as a transverse action $\Phi$ of $G$ on $(M,\mathcal F)$; i.e., an ``action'' which is defined up to…

Motivated by the programmes initiated by Taubes and Perutz, we study the geometry of near-symplectic 4-manifolds, i.e., manifolds equipped with a closed 2-form which is symplectic outside a union of embedded 1-dimensional submanifolds, and…
