The Grassmannian model represents harmonic maps from Riemann surfaces by families of shift-invariant subspaces of a Hilbert space. We impose a natural symmetry condition on the shift-invariant subspaces that corresponds to considering an…
We give a local treatment of finite alignment by identifying the finitely aligned part of any (not necessarily finitely aligned) higher-rank graph. We show the finitely aligned part is itself a constellation and forms a finitely aligned…
We describe all Witt invariants of anti-hermitian forms over a quaternion algebra with its canonical involution, and in particular all Witt invariants of orthogonal groups $O(A,\sigma)$ where $(A,\sigma)$ is an central simple algebra with…
Let $Y$ be a scheme in which 2 is invertible and let $V$ be a rank $n$ vector bundle on $Y$ endowed with a non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form $q$. The orthogonal group ${\bf O}(q)$ of the form $q$ is a group scheme over $Y$ whose…
We provide an algorithm for evolving general spin-$s$ Gross-Pitaevskii / non-linear Schr\"odinger systems carrying a variety of interactions, where the $2s+1$ components of the `spinor' field represent the different spin-multiplicity…
We present a generalized spin-wave theory (GSWT) for treating spin Hamiltonians of arbitrary spin $S$. The generalization consists of an extension of the traditional spin-wave theory from SU(2) to SU($N$). Low energy excitations are waves…
A variation to the usual formulation of Grassmann representation path integrals is presented. Time-indexed anticommuting partners are introduced for each Grassmann coherent state variable and a general method for handling the effect of…
We give a new categorical way to construct the central stability homology of Putman and Sam and explain how it can be used in the context of representation stability and homological stability. In contrast to them, we cover categories with…
Let $X$ be the special fiber of a unitary Shimura variety of hyperspecial level at a prime $p$ inert in the totally real field $F$. Let $Y\to X$ be the associated flag space. For every $L$-dominant weight $\lambda$, let…
Working in the soft-element (classical) viewpoint, we introduce \emph{soft bitopological groups}: soft groups endowed with two soft topologies such that the induced topologies on the set of soft elements make the soft-element group into a…
We first construct the Rozansky-Witten model coupled to BF theory and Chern-Simons theory using the Alexandrov-Kontsevich-Schwarz-Zaboronsky (AKSZ) method. Then we apply the machinery developed in some earlier papers about AKSZ theories and…
We revisit the Jordan-Wigner transformation, showing that --rather than a non-local isomorphism between different fermionic and spin Hamiltonian operators-- it can be viewed in terms of local identities relating different realizations of…
Two compactifications of the space of holomorphic maps of fixed degree from a compact Riemann surface to a Grassmannian are studied. It is shown that the Uhlenbeck compactification has the structure of a projective scheme and is dominated…
We prove a conjecture by Kreiman and Lakshmibai on a combinatorial description of multiplicities of points on Schubert varieties in Graszmannians in terms of certain sets of reflections in the corresponding Weyl group. The proof is…
In any category with a reasonable notion of cover, each object has a group of scissors automorphisms. We prove that under mild conditions, the homology of this group is independent of the object, and can be expressed in terms of the…
We study K-theoretic Gromov--Witten invariants of projective hypersurfaces using a virtual localization formula under finite group actions. In particular, it provides all K-theoretic Gromov--Witten invariants of the quintic threefold modulo…
In this article we consider a variant of Rabinowitz Floer homology in order to define a homological count of discriminant points for paths of contactomorphisms. The growth rate of this count can be seen as an analogue of Givental's…
The homogeneous coordinate ring of the Grassmannian Gr(k,n) has a cluster structure defined in terms of planar diagrams known as Postnikov diagrams. The cluster corresponding to such a diagram consists entirely of Pluecker coordinates. We…
We describe CW decompositions of complex Lagrangian Grassmannians, that contain as subcomplexes, CW decompositions of real Lagrangian Grassmannians by Schubert-Arnol'd cells. The degrees of attaching maps are explicitly computed in terms of…
A family of exactly solvable models describing a spin-S Heisenberg chain doped with mobile spin-(S-1/2) carriers is constructed from gl(2|1)-invariant solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. The models are generalizations of the…
