Let A be a finitely generated associative algebra over an algebraically closed field. We characterize the finite dimensional modules over A whose orbit closures are regular varieties.
In this first of a series of three papers we outline an approach to classifying 4d $\mathcal{N}{=}2$ superconformal field theories at rank 2. The classification of allowed scale invariant $\mathcal{N}=2$ Coulomb branch geometries of…
This paper is devoted to the classification of GL^+(2,R)-orbit closures of surfaces in the intersection of the Prym eigenform locus with various strata of quadratic differentials. We show that the following dichotomy holds: an orbit is…
We classify invariant Lagrangians of the form $L(g_{ij},g_{ij,k},g_{ij,kl},D_I,D_{I,j})$ depending at most quadratically on the variables $g_{ij,k},g_{ij,kl}$ and $D_I,D_{I,j}$, where $g$ is a Lorentz metric and $D$ is a tensor field of…
For a semisimple Lie algebra g the orbit method attempts to assign representations of g to (coadjoint) orbits in g*. Orbital varieties are particular Lagrangian subvarieties of such orbits leading to highest weight representations of g. In…
Let $G$ be an algebraic group and let $X$ be a smooth $G$-variety with two orbits: an open orbit and a a closed orbit of codimension $1$. We give an algebraic description of the category of $G$-equivariant vector bundles on $X$ under a mild…
We classify the orbit closures in the variety Nov_3 of complex, 3-dimensional Novikov algebras and obtain the Hasse diagrams for the closure ordering of the orbits. We provide invariants which are easy to compute and which enable us to…
Consider the conjugation action of the general linear group $\operatorname{GL}_{2}(K)$ on the polynomial ring $K[X_{2 \times 2}]$. When $K$ is an infinite field, the ring of invariants is a polynomial ring generated by the trace and the…
We prove several new transversality results for formal CR maps between formal real hypersurfaces in complex space. Both cases of finite and infinite type hypersurfaces are tackled in this note.
We continue the study of the closures of $GL(V)$-orbits in the enhanced nilpotent cone $V\times\cN$ begun by the first two authors. We prove that each closure is an invariant-theoretic quotient of a suitably-defined enhanced quiver variety.…
In this paper, Lie conformal superalgebras of rank (2 + 1) are completely classified (up to isomorphism) and their automorphism groups are determined. Furthermore, we give the classification of the finite irreducible conformal modules over…
Let M be a translation surface. We show that certain deformations of M supported on the set of all cylinders in a given direction remain in the GL(2,R)-orbit closure of M. Applications are given concerning complete periodicity, field of…
Classical invariants for representations of one Lie group can often be related to invariants of some other Lie group. Physics suggests that the right objects to consider for these questions are certain refinements of classical invariants…
We give an explicit description of the closure containment order (or "Bruhat order") on the set of orbits of GL_p \times GL_q on the flag variety GL_{p+q}/B, relative to the parametrization of the orbits by combinatorial objects called…
Let G be a simple complex algebraic group. By using a notion of a G-category we define invariants of tangles with flat G-connections in their complements. We also show that quantized universal enveloping algebras at roots of unity provide…
We characterize those regular, holomorphic or formal maps into the orbit space $V/G$ of a complex representation of a finite group $G$ which admit a regular, holomorphic or formal lift to the representation space $V$. In particular, the…
We show that $U(k)$-invariant hypercomplex structures on (open subsets) of regular semisimple adjoint orbits in $\mathfrak{gl}(k,{\mathbb C})$ correspond to algebraic curves $C$ of genus $(k-1)^2$, equipped with a flat projection…
This is the first of a series of two technical papers devoted to the analysis of holonomy invariants in strict higher gauge theory with end applications in higher Chern--Simons theory. For a flat 2--connection, we define the 2-holonomy of…
A permutation group $G$ on $\Omega$ is called a rank 3 group if it has precisely three orbits in its induced action on $\Omega \times \Omega$. The largest permutation group on $\Omega$ having the same orbits as $G$ on $\Omega \times \Omega$…
Let $\mathcal G_2$ denote the affine group $GL(2,\mathbb Z) \ltimes \mathbb Z^{2}$. For every point $x=(x_1,x_2) \in \R2$ let $\orb(x)=\{y\in\R2\mid y=\gamma(x)$ for some $\gamma \in \mathcal{G}_2 \}$. Let $G_{x}$ be the subgroup of the…
