Let G be a finite group acting on a symplectic complex vector space V. Assume that the quotient V/G has a holomorphic symplectic resolution. We prove that G is generated by "symplectic reflectionsd"', i.e. symplectomorphisms with fixed…
Let $\Omega $ be a bounded ${\mathcal{C}}^{\infty}$-smoothly bounded domain in ${\mathbb{C}}^{n}.$ For such a domain we define a new notion between strict pseudo-convexity and pseudo-convexity: the size of the set $W$ of weakly…
We extend the polydisk theorem of [21], originally established for classical Cartan-Hartogs domains, to Hartogs domains over arbitrary (possibly reducible and exceptional) bounded symmetric domains. We further establish a dual counterpart…
We consider the swampland distance and de Sitter conjectures, of respective order one parameters $\lambda$ and $c$. Inspired by the recent Trans-Planckian Censorship conjecture (TCC), we propose a generalization of the distance conjecture,…
There has been recent interest in new types of topological defects arising in models with compact extra dimensions. We discuss in this context the old statement that if only SU(N) gauge fields and adjoint matter live in the bulk, and the…
For a broad class of symplectic manifolds of dimension at least six, we find the following new phenomenon: there exist local exotic Lagrangian tori. More specifically, let $X$ be a geometrically bounded symplectic manifold of dimension at…
In this paper we shall prove that the singular locus of a symplectic singularity has no codimension 3 irreducible components. As a corollary, a symplectic singularity is terminal if and only if its singular locus has codimension $\geq 4$.…
This paper studies the geometry of Cartan-Hartogs domains from the symplectic point of view. Inspired by duality between compact and noncompact Hermitian symmetric spaces, we construct a dual counterpart of Cartan-Hartogs domains and give…
We study Leinster's notion of magnitude for a compact metric space. For a smooth, compact domain $X\subset \mathbb{R}^{2m-1}$, we find geometric significance in the function $\mathcal{M}_X(R) = \mathrm{mag}(R\cdot X)$. The function…
The Weak Gravity Conjecture has recently been re-formulated in terms of a particle with non-negative self-binding energy. Because of the dual conformal field theory (CFT) formulation in the anti-de Sitter space the conformal dimension…
For a (not necessarily locally convex) topological vector space $\mathcal{X}$ of holomorphic functions in one complex variable, we show that the shift invariant subspace generated by a set of polynomials is $\mathcal{X}$ if and only if…
We prove a sharp global $W^{2,\,p}$ estimate for potentials of optimal transport maps that take a certain class of non-convex planar domains to convex ones.
Given a symplectic manifold, we ask in how many different ways can a torus act on it. Classification theorems in equivariant symplectic geometry can sometimes tell that two Hamiltonian torus actions are inequivalent, but often they do not…
We study semi--algebraic domains associated with symplectic tori and conjecturally identified with spaces of stability conditions on the Fukaya categories of these tori. Our motivation is to test which results from the theory of flat…
Let $1\leq q\leq (n-1)$. We first show that a necessary condition for a Hankel operator on $(0,q-1)$-forms on a convex domain to be compact is that its symbol is holomorphic along $q$-dimensional analytic varieties in the boundary. Because…
We use Boij-S\"oderberg theory to give two lower bounds for the dimension of the cohomology of a finite CW-complex in terms of the toral rank and certain Betti numbers of the space. One of our bounds turns out to be particularly effective…
The collection of $d \times N$ complex matrices with prescribed column norms and prescribed (nonzero) singular values forms a compact algebraic variety, which we refer to as a frame space. Elements of frame spaces -- i.e., frames -- are…
We formulate a conjecture characterizing smooth projective varieties in positive characteristic whose Frobenius morphism can be lifted modulo $p^2$ - we expect that such varieties, after a finite \'etale cover, admit a toric fibration over…
We show that on the unit disc cotangent bundle of flat Riemannian tori, all normalized capacities coincide with twice the systole. The same result holds for flat, reversible Finsler tori and normalized capacities that are greater than or…
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…
