We prove general type results for orthogonal modular varieties associated with the moduli of compact hyperk\"ahler manifolds of deformation generalised Kummer type ('deformation generalised Kummer varieties'). In particular, we consider…
An enumerative invariant theory in Algebraic Geometry, Differential Geometry, or Representation Theory, is the study of invariants which 'count' $\tau$-(semi)stable objects $E$ with fixed topological invariants $[E]=\alpha$ in some…
To define enumerative invariants in geometry, one often needs orientations on moduli spaces of geometric objects. This monograph develops a new bordism-theoretic point of view on orientations of moduli spaces. Let $X$ be a manifold with…
We prove that the space of cuspidal quaternionic modular forms on the groups of type $F_4$ and $E_n$ have a purely algebraic characterization. This characterization involves Fourier coefficients and Fourier-Jacobi expansions of the cuspidal…
Considering an integer $d>0$, we show the existence of convex-cocompactrepresentations of surface groups into SO(4,1) admitting an embedded minimal map withcurvatures in $(-1,1)$ and whose associated hyperbolic 4-manifolds are disk bundles…
Let $\bold G$ be a reductive algebraic group defined over $\Q$, and let $\Gamma$ be an arithmetic subgroup of $\bold G(\Q)$. Let $X$ be the symmetric space for $\bold G(\R)$, and assume $X$ is contractible. Then the cohomology (mod torsion)…
We study the moduli space of four dimensional ordinary Lie algebras, and their versal deformations. Their classification is well known; our focus in this paper is on the deformations, which yield a picture of how the moduli space is…
The aim of this article is to introduce invariants of oriented, smooth, closed four-manifolds, built using the Floer homology theories defined in two earlier papers (math.SG/0101206 and math.SG/0105202). This four-dimensional theory also…
We study a Lie algebra of formal vector fields $W_n$ with its application to the perturbative deformed holomorphic symplectic structure in the A-model, and a Calabi-Yau manifold with boundaries in the B-model. We show that equivalent…
We investigate modular embeddings for semi-arithmetic Fuchsian groups. First we prove some purely algebro-geometric or even topological criteria for a regular map from a smooth complex curve to a quaternionic Shimura variety to be covered…
A three-dimensional quasi-Fuchsian Lorentzian manifold $M$ is a globally hyperbolic spacetime diffeomorphic to $\Sigma\times (-1,1)$ for a closed orientable surface $\Sigma$ of genus $\geq 2$. It is the quotient $M=\Gamma\backslash…
We introduce the formalism of differential conformal superalgebras, which we show leads to the "correct" automorphism group functor and accompanying descent theory in the conformal setting. As an application, we classify forms of N=2 and…
We produce an equality between the Gromov-Witten invariants of the moduli space M of rank two odd degree stable vector bundles over a Riemann surface $\Sigma$ and the Donaldson invariants of the algebraic surface $\Sigma \times P^1$. We…
The algebra of exterior differential forms on a regular 3-Sasakian 7-manifold is investigated, with special reference to nearly-parallel $G_2$ 3-forms. This is applied to the study of 3-forms invariant under cohomogeneity-one actions by…
Let $M$ be a manifold and $T^*M$ be the cotangent bundle. We introduce a 1-cocycle on the group of diffeomorphisms of $M$ with values in the space of linear differential operators acting on $C^{\infty} (T^*M).$ When $M$ is the…
We review a manifestly supersymmetric off-shell formulation of a wide class of torsionful $(4,4)$ $2D$ sigma models and their massive deformations in the harmonic superspace with a double set of $SU(2)$ harmonic variables. Sigma models with…
This is the second paper in a series on enumerative invariants counting self-dual objects in self-dual categories, and is a sequal to (arXiv:2302.00038). Ordinary enumerative invariants in abelian categories can be seen as invariants for…
We study the instanton partition functions of two well-known superconformal field theories with mass deformations. Two types of anomaly equations, namely, the modular anomaly and holomorphic anomaly, have been discovered in the literature.…
This is the first paper in a series that studies smooth relative Lie algebra homologies and cohomologies based on the theory of formal manifolds and formal Lie groups. In this paper, we lay the foundations for this study by introducing the…
We estimate the dimension of the variety of homomorphisms from $\Gamma$ to $ SO(p,q)$ with Zariski dense image, where $\Gamma$ is a Fuchsian group, and $SO(p,q)$ is the indefinite special orthogonal group with signature $(p,q)$.
