This paper investigates the derived and spectral analogs of logarithmic geometry. We develop the deformation theory for animated log rings and $\mathbb{E}_\infty$-log rings and examine the corresponding theories of derived and spectral log…
We introduce a notion of retraction between continuous maps of topological spaces and study the behavior of several numerical invariants under such retractions. These include (co)homological dimensions, the Lusternik-Schnirelmann category,…
We provide a Geometric Quantisation formulation of the AJ-conjecture for the Teichm\"{u}ller TQFT, and we prove it in detail in the case of the knot complements of $4_{1}$ and $5_2$. The conjecture states that the level-$N$ Andersen-Kashaev…
Dijkgraaf and Vafa have conjectured the correspondences between topological string theories, ${\cal N}=1$ gauge theories and matrix models. By the use of this conjecture, we calculate the quantum deformations of Calabi-Yau threefolds with…
In this paper, we formally define the concept of shifted contact structures on derived (Artin) stacks and study their local properties in the context of derived algebraic geometry. In this regard, for negatively shifted contact derived…
This short communication investigates impurity coupling in generalized field theories where scalar coupling is introduced directly at the level of the kinetic and gradient contributions of the energy. We show that the fundamental aspects of…
We introduce geometric quantization in the setting of shifted symplectic structures. We define Lagrangian fibrations and prequantizations of shifted symplectic stacks and their geometric quantization. In addition, we study many examples…
These lectures centered around the Kempf-Ness theorem, which describes the equivalence between notions of quotient in symplectic and algebraic geometry. The text also describes connections to invariant theory, such existence of invariants…
In this note we introduce parameterized Gromov-Witten invariants for symplectic fiber bundles and study the topology of the symplectomorphism group. We also give sample applications showing the non-triviality of certain homotopy groups of…
An analytic classification of generic anti-polynomial vector fields $\dot z = \overline{P(z)}$ is given in term of a topological and an analytic invariants. The number of generic strata in the parameter space is counted for each degree of…
We describe equivariant differential characters (classifying equivariant circle bundles with connections), their prequantization, and reduction.
We develop further the approach to derived differential geometry introduced in Costello's work on the Witten genus. In particular, we introduce several new examples of L-infinity spaces, discuss vector bundles and shifted symplectic…
We consider the topological theory of Witten type for gauge differential p-forms. It is shown that some topological invariants such as linking numbers appear under quantization of this theory. The non-abelian generalization of the model is…
We consider manifolds whose transition maps are restrictions of polynomial mappings $\mathbb{R}^n\to\mathbb{R}^n$, and use them to give an equivalent statement of the Jacobian conjecture over the real field.
The representability theorem for stacks, due to Artin in the underived setting and Lurie in the derived setting, gives conditions under which a stack is representable by an $n$-geometric stack. In recent work of Ben-Bassat, Kelly, and…
General invariants of a geometric mapping of a symmetric affine connection space are obtained in this paper. These invariants are generalizations of the previous obtained basic invariants (see [16]). Moreover, these invariants are related…
We review the basic elements of the geometrical formalism for description of gauge fields and the theory of invariant connections, and their applications to the coset space dimensional reduction of Yang-Mills theories. We also discuss the…
We discuss finite local extensions of quantum field theories in low space time dimensions in connection with categorical structures and the question of modular invariants in conformal field theory, also touching upon purely mathematical…
This work presents some results about Wick polynomials of a vector field renormalization in locally covariant algebraic quantum field theory in curved spacetime. General vector fields are pictured as sections of natural vector bundles over…
Motivated by the problem of transverse deformation quantization of foliated manifolds, we describe a quantization of Dirac structures (more precisely, of those that are formal deformations of regular ones) to stacks of algebroids in the…
