This expository article is an introduction to logarithmic Gromov--Witten (GW) theory. We discuss how to study the GW theory of a smooth projective variety via simple normal crossings degenerations. We survey several approaches to…
Denote the free group on two letters by F2 and the SL(3,C)-representation variety of F2 by R = Hom(F2, SL(3,C)). There is a SL(3,C)-action on the coordinate ring of R, and the geometric points of the subring of invariants is an affine…
For a Fermat quasi-homogeneous polynomial $W$, we study a family of K-theoretic quantum invariants parametrized by a positive rational number $\epsilon$. We prove a wall-crossing formula by showing the generating functions lie on the…
Gravitational lensing has been extensively observed for electromagnetic signals, but not yet for gravitational waves (GWs). Detecting lensed GWs will have many astrophysical and cosmological applications, and becomes more feasible as the…
We give an explicit formula for the projectively invariant quantization map between the space of symbols of degree three and the space of third-order linear differential operators, both viewed as modules over the group of diffeomorphisms…
A major problem for inferring species trees from gene trees is that evolutionary processes can sometimes favour gene tree topologies that conflict with an underlying species tree. In the case of incomplete lineage sorting, this phenomenon…
Formulas previously presented for the Casson-Walker invariant are generalized to Lescop's extension. These formulas in terms of linking numbers and surgery coefficients compute the change in Lescop's invariant under crossing changes in a…
In this paper, we consider the dual formulation of minimizing $\sum_{i\in I}f_i(x_i)+\sum_{j\in J} g_j(\mathcal{A}_jx)$ with the index sets $I$ and $J$ being large. To address the difficulties from the high dimension of the variable $x$…
We develop worldline formulations of covariant fracton gauge theories. These are a one-parameter family of gauge theories of a rank-two symmetric tensor field, invariant under a scalar gauge transformation involving a double derivative.…
Permutation polynomials over finite fields have extensive applications in various areas. Particularly, permutation polynomials with simple forms are of great interest. In recent papers, several classes of permutation polynomials of the form…
Let $G$ be the cyclic group of order $n$ and suppose ${\bf F}$ is a field containing a primitive $n^\text{th}$ root of unity. We consider the ring of invariants ${\bf F}[W]^G$ of a three dimensional representation $W$ of $G$ where $G…
We present a numerical self consistent variational approach based on the Jordan-Wigner transformation for two dimensional spin systems. We apply it to the study of the well known quantum (S=1/2) antiferromagnetic XXZ system as a function of…
We propose iterative inversion algorithms for weighted Radon transforms $R_W$ along hyperplanes in $R^3$. More precisely, expandingthe weight $W = W (x, \theta), x \in R^3 , \theta \in S^2$ , into the series of spherical harmonics in…
This is the first part of the project toward proving the BCOV's Feymann graph sum formula of all genera Gromov-Witten invariants of quintic Calabi-Yau threefolds. In this paper, we introduce the notion of N-Mixed-Spin-P fields, construct…
We present a gluing formula for Gromov-Witten invariants in the case of a triple product. This gluing formula is a simple case of a much more general gluing formula proved and stated using exploded manifolds. We present this simple case…
New birational invariants for a projective manifold are defined by using Lawson homology. These invariants can be highly nontrivial even for projective threefolds. Our techniques involve the weak factorization theorem of Wlodarczyk and…
We briefly review 3-dimensional untwisted Dijkgraaf-Witten theory over a finite group $\Gamma$, and present a method of computing untwisted Dijkgraaf-Witten invariants for arborescent links. Some explicit formulas are given when…
The additive invariants of an algebraic variety is calculated in terms of those of the fixed point set under the action of additive and multiplicative groups, by using Bialynicki-Birula's fixed point formula for a projective algebraicset…
A method is presented for the computation of the one-loop effective action at finite temperature and density. The method is based on an expansion in the number of spatial covariant derivatives. It applies to general background field…
