A totally symmetric set is a finite subset of a group for which any permutation of the elements can be realized by conjugation in the ambient group. Such sets are rigid under homomorphisms, and so exert a great deal of control over the…
We provide and study an equivariant theory of group (co)homology of a group G with coefficients in a gamma-equivariant G-module A, when a separate group "gamma" acts on G and A, generalizing the classical Eilenberg-MacLane (co)homology of…
We discuss the notion of symmetries in non-local field theories characterized by integro-differential equations of motion, from a geometric perspective. We then focus on Group Field Theory (GFT) models of quantum gravity and provide a…
The total homology of the loop space of the configuration space of ordered distinct n points in R^m has a structure of a Hopf algebra defined by the 4-term relations if m>2. We describe a relation of between the cohomology of this loop…
Some aspects of phase transitions can be more conveniently studied in the orbit space of the action of the symmetry group. After a brief review of the fundamental ideas of this approach, I shall concentrate on the mathematical aspect and…
A relatively simple algebraic framework is given, in which all the compact symmetric spaces can be described and handled without distinguishing cases. We also give some applications and further results.
We show that the variable cohomology of a general complete intersection of quadrics can be identified with the intersection cohomology of a double covering. As a consequence, we show that the middle cohomology of a general complete…
The geometry of four-qubit entanglement is investigated. We replace some of the polynomial invariants for four-qubits introduced recently by new ones of direct geometrical meaning. It is shown that these invariants describe four points, six…
This article records basic topological, as well as homological properties of the space of homomorphisms Hom(L,G) where L is a finitely generated discrete group, and G is a Lie group, possibly non-compact. If L is a free abelian group of…
The symmetric group acts on the power set and also on the set of square free polynomials. These two related representations are analyzed from the stability point of view. An application is given for the action of the symmetric group on the…
We consider semi-free Hamiltonian $S^1$-manifolds of dimension six and establish when the equivariant cohomology and data on the fixed point set determine the isomorphism type. Gonzales listed conditions under which the isomorphism type of…
The paper provides a combinatorial method to decide when the space of local systems with non vanishing first cohomology on the complement to an arrangement of lines in a complex projective plane has as an irreducible component a subgroup of…
We develop a geometric approach to the study of plane sextics with a triple singular point. As an application, we give an explicit geometric description of all irreducible maximal sextics with a type $\bold E_7$ singular point and compute…
We investigate point-line geometries whose singular subspaces correspond to binary equidistant codes. The main result is a description of automorphisms of these geometries. In some important cases, automorphisms induced by non-monomial…
To any finite metric space $X$ we associate the universal Hopf $\c^*$-algebra $H$ coacting on $X$. We prove that spaces $X$ having at most 7 points fall into one of the following classes: (1) the coaction of $H$ is not transitive; (2) $H$…
Equivariant cohomology, a captivating fusion of symmetry and abstract mathematics, illuminates the profound role of group actions in shaping geometric structures. At its core lies the Atiyah-Bott Localization Theorem, a mathematical jewel…
We study the special algebraic properties of alternating 3-forms in 6 and 7 dimensions and introduce a diffeomorphism-invariant functional on the space of differential 3-forms on a closed manifold M in these dimensions. Restricting the…
We begin by defining general hypergeometric functions over finite fields and obtaining a finite field analogue of a classical symmetry in their complex counterparts. We give a geometric proof for the symmetry by constructing isomorphisms…
For Hamiltonian circle actions on compact, connected, four-dimensional manifolds, we give a generators and relations description for the even part of the equivariant cohomology, as an algebra over the equivariant cohomology of a point. This…
Using the structure of the Boson-Fermion Fock space and an argument taken from [2], we give a new proof of the triviality of the $L^2$ cohomology groups on an abstract Wiener space, alternative to that given by Shigekawa [9]. We apply some…
