We study the Picard-Lefschetz formula for the Siegel modular threefold of paramodular level and prove the weight-monodromy conjecture for its middle degree inner cohomology with arbitrary automorphic coefficients. We give some applications…

The elliptic quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov-Bernard (qKZB) difference equations associated to the elliptic quantum group $E_{\tau,\eta}(sl_2)$ is a system of difference equations with values in a tensor product of representations of the…

We propose a conjecture that the monodromy group of a singular hyperbolic metric on a non-hyperbolic Riemann surface is {\it Zariski dense} in ${\rm PSL}(2,\,{\Bbb R})$. By using meromorphic differentials and affine connections, we obtain…

We introduce a hypergoemetirc series with two complex variables, which generalizes Appell's, Lauricella's and Kemp\'e de F\'eriet's hypergeometric series, and study the system of differential equations that it satisfies. We determine the…

Given an arrangement of hyperplanes in $\P^n$, possibly with non-normal crossings, we give a vanishing lemma for the cohomology of the sheaf of $q$-forms with logarithmic poles along our arrangement. We give a basis for the ideal $\cal J$…

We obtain integral representations of solutions to special cases of the Fuchsian system of differential equations and Heun's differential equation. In particular, we calculate the monodromy of solutions to the Fuchsian equation that…

The monodromy conjecture is an umbrella term for several conjectured relationships between poles of zeta functions, monodromy eigenvalues and roots of Bernstein-Sato polynomials in arithmetic geometry and singularity theory. Even the…

We give a new proof of Zariski's multiplicity conjecture in the case of isolated hypersurface singularities; this was first proved by de Bobadilla-Pe\l ka \cite{BobadillaPelka}. Our proof uses the TQFT structure of fixed-point Floer…

Discrete convex Sobolev inequalities and Beckner inequalities are derived for time-continuous Markov chains on finite state spaces. Beckner inequalities interpolate between the modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality and the Poincar\'e…

We classified finite orbits of monodromies of the Fuchsian system for five $2\times 2$ matrices. The explicit proof of this result is given. We have proposed a conjecture for a similar classification for $6$ or more $2\times 2$ matrices.…

Let \theta:\pi_1(R) \to \PSL(2,\C) be a homomorphism of the fundamental group of an oriented, closed surface R of genus exceeding one. We will establish the following theorem. Theorem. Necessary and sufficient for \theta to be the monodromy…

In this article, we propose and study several discrete versions of homogeneous and inhomogeneous one-dimensional Fokker-Planck equations. In particular, for these discretizations of velocity and space, we prove the exponential convergence…

We discuss the history of the monodromy theorem, starting from Weierstra\ss, and the concept of monodromy group. From this viewpoint we compare then the Weierstra\ss , the Legendre and other normal forms for elliptic curves, explaining…

In this work, we consider the discretization of some nonlinear Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov equations. The scheme we propose preserves the non-negativity of the solution, conserves the mass and, as the discretization parameters tend to zero,…

We give a combinatorial description (including explicit differential-form bases) for the cohomology groups of the space of n distinct nonzero complex numbers, with coefficients in rank-one local systems which are of finite monodromy around…

We study the interplay between the diagonal flow on, and the topology of, a stratum component of a space of rooted quadratic differentials. We prove that the flow group -- the subgroup of the fundamental group generated by almost-flow loops…

We prove that an abstract (possibly infinite dimensional) complex irreducible representation of a discrete supersolvable group is monomial if and only if it has finite weight. We also prove a general result that implies converse of Schur's…

Let $\mathfrak{M}_n$ be the multiplicative monoid of $n \times n$ matrices over a finite field. The monoid algebra $\mathbf{C}[\mathfrak{M}_n]$ has been studied for several decades. One of the important early results is Kov\'acs' theorem…

We obtain a polynomial upper bound in the finite-field version of the multidimensional polynomial Szemer\'{e}di theorem for distinct-degree polynomials. That is, if $P_1, ..., P_t$ are nonconstant integer polynomials of distinct degrees and…

We give a detailed proof of Kolchin's results on differential Galois groups of strongly normal extensions, in the case where the field of constants is not necessarily algebraically closed. We closely follow former works due to Pillay and…
