We investigate the electromagnetic duality properties of an abelian gauge theory on a compact oriented four-manifold by analysing the behaviour of a generalised partition function under modular transformations of the dimensionless coupling…
This paper explores further the connection between Langlands duality and T-duality for compact simple Lie groups, which appeared in work of Daenzer-Van Erp and Bunke-Nikolaus. We show that Langlands duality gives rise to isomorphisms of…
We study the quantization of spaces whose K-theory in the classical limit is the ring of dual numbers $\mathbb{Z}[t]/(t^2)$. For a compact Hausdorff space we recall necessary and sufficient conditions for this to hold. For a compact quantum…
Borel-Serre proved that $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{Z})$ is a virtual duality group of dimension $n \choose 2$ and the Steinberg module $\mathrm{St}_n(\mathbb{Q})$ is its dualizing module. This module is the top-dimensional homology group of the…
The goal of this paper is to construct a calculus whose higher indices are naturally elements in the twisted K-theory groups for Lie groupoids. Given a Lie groupoid $G$ and a $PU(H)$-valued groupoid cocycle, we construct an algebra of…
In this note, we show how a continuous action of the Morava stabilizer group $\mathbb G_n$ on the Lubin-Tate spectrum $E_n$, satisfying the conclusion $E_n^{h\mathbb G_n}\simeq L_{K(n)} S$ of the Devinatz-Hopkins Theorem, may be obtained by…
Consider a compact group $G$ acting on a real or complex Banach Lie group $U$, by automorphisms in the relevant category, and leaving a central subgroup $K\le U$ invariant. We define the spaces ${}_KZ^n(G,U)$ of $K$-relative continuous…
When compactifying M- or type II string-theories on tori of indefinite space-time signature, their low energy theories involve sigma models on E_{n(n)}/H_n, where H_n is a not necessarily compact subgroup of E_{n(n)} whose complexification…
Given a reductive group $G$ and a reductive subgroup $H$, both defined over a number field $F$, we introduce the notion of the $H$-distinguished automorphic spectrum of $G$ and analyze it for the pair $(\mathrm{U}_{2n},\mathrm{Sp}_{2n})$.…
We study the discrete groups $\Lambda$ whose duals embed into a given compact quantum group, $\hat{\Lambda}\subset G$. In the matrix case $G\subset U_n^+$ the embedding condition is equivalent to having a quotient map $\Gamma_U\to\Lambda$,…
We establish a novel approach to computing $G$-equivariant cohomology for a finite group $G$, and demonstrate it in the case that $G = C_{p^n}$. For any commutative ring spectrum $R$, we prove a symmetric monoidal reconstruction theorem for…
The aim of this paper is two fold: First to study finite groups $G$ of automorphisms of the homogenized Weyl algebra $B_{n}$, the skew group algebra $B_{n}\ast G$, the ring of invariants $B_{n}^{G}$, and the relations of these algebras with…
This work investigates analytic Hilbert modules $\mathcal{H}$, over the polynomial ring, consisting of holomorphic functions on a $G$-space $\Omega \subset \mathbb{C}^m$ that are homogeneous under the natural action of the group $G$. In a…
Given a Lie group $G$, a compact subgroup $K$ and a representation $\tau\in\hat K$, we assume that the algebra of $\text{End}(V_\tau)$-valued, bi-$\tau$-equivariant, integrable functions on $G$ is commutative. We present the basic facts of…
We consider compactifications of rank $Q$ E-string theory on a genus zero surface with no punctures but with flux for various subgroups of the $\text{E}_8\times \text{SU}(2)$ global symmetry group of the six dimensional theory. We first…
We determine the orbit types of the action of the group of local gauge transformations on the space of connections in a principal bundle with structure group O(n), SO(n) or $Sp(n)$ over a closed, simply connected manifold of dimension 4.…
We introduce a periodic form of the iterated algebraic K-theory of ku, the (connective) complex K-theory spectrum, as well as a natural twisting of this cohomology theory by higher gerbes. Furthermore, we prove a form of topological…
Recently, Cohen and Wales built a faithful linear representation of the Artin group of type $D_n$, hence showing the linearity of this group. It was later discovered that this representation is reducible for some complex values of its two…
In this work, we introduce a class of Timmermann's measured multiplier Hopf *-algebroids called algebraic quantum transformation groupoids of compact type. Each object in this class admits a Pontrjagin-like dual called an algebraic quantum…
Equivariant T-duality triples of locally compact abelian groups are considered. The motivating example dealing with the group $\R^n$ containing a lattice $\Z^n$ comes with an isomorphism in twisted equivariant K-theory.
