In this paper, we use new results together with established facts about Thurston's compactification of Teichm\"uller space to address the geometric P=W conjecture for $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$, which concerns projective compactifications…

In this paper, we consider an inverse conductivity problem on a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\geq2$, also known as Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT), for the case where unknown impenetrable obstacles are embedded into…

The group $Ham(M,\omega)$ of all Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ plays a central role in symplectic geometry. This group is endowed with the Hofer metric. In this paper we study two aspects of the geometry…

We develop a theory of toric Artin stacks extending the theories of toric Deligne-Mumford stacks developed by Borisov-Chen-Smith, Fantechi-Mann-Nironi, and Iwanari. We also generalize the Chevalley-Shephard-Todd theorem to the case of…

Let $M\subset{\complex}^n$ be a complex domain of ${\complex}^n$ endowed with a rotation invariant \K form $\omega_{\Phi}= \frac{i}{2} \partial\bar\partial\Phi$. In this paper we describe sufficient conditions on the \K potential $\Phi$ for…

We initiate the study of the rational SFT capacities of Siegel using tools in toric algebraic geometry. In particular, we derive new (often sharp) bounds for the RSFT capacities of a strongly convex toric domain in dimension $4$. These…

Given a compact symplectic toric manifold $(M,\omega, \mathbb{T})$, we identify a class $DGK_{\omega}^{\mathbb{T}}(M)$ of $\mathbb{T}$-invariant generalized K\"ahler structures for which a generalisation the Abreu-Guillemin theory of toric…

We study embeddings within different scales of generalised smoothness Morrey spaces defined on bounded smooth domains, i.e., in $\mathcal{N}^s_{\varphi,p,q}(\Omega)$, $\mathcal{E}^s_{\varphi,p,q}(\Omega)$, $B^{s,\varphi}_{p,q}(\Omega)$ and…

Embedded contact homology (ECH) is a kind of Floer homology for contact three-manifolds. Taubes has shown that ECH is isomorphic to a version of Seiberg-Witten Floer homology (and both are conjecturally isomorphic to a version of Heegaard…

In [36, Section 8], the present author proposed the hypergraph obstruction for the existence of k-regular embeddings. In this paper, we develop the hypergraph obstruction concretely and give some homological obstructions for the k-regular…

We study a double solid X branched along a nodal sextic surface in a projective space and the 2-torsion subgroup in the third integer cohomology group of a resolution of singularities of X. This group can be considered as an obstruction to…

The Rotating Kepler Problem (RKP) arises as a fundamental model in celestial mechanics, appearing as a limiting case of the circular restricted three-body problem. It offers a tractable yet rich framework for studying periodic orbits,…

A "folklore conjecture, probably due to Tutte" (as described in [P.D. Seymour, Sums of circuits, Graph theory and related topics (Proc. Conf., Univ. Waterloo, 1977), pp. 341-355, Academic Press, 1979]) asserts that every bridgeless cubic…

We give detailed descriptions of gluing pseudoholomorphic maps in symplectic geometry, especially in the presence of an obstruction bundle. The main motivation is to try to compare the symplectic and enumerative invariants of algebraic…

We study symplectic forms on hypersurface algebroids. These are a broad generalization of the $b^{k}$-Poisson structures studied extensively by Miranda, Scott, and collaborators, and their geometry is intimately related to the group of…

Traditionally, the embedding procedure for spherically symmetric spacetimes has been restricted to the equatorial plane $\theta = \pi/2$. This conventional approach, however, encounters a fundamental limitation: not every spherically…
