After Chern's conjecture on the discreteness of the constant scalar curvatures of compact minimal submanifolds $M^n$ in unit spheres $\mathbb{S}^{n+q}$, Z. Q. Lu proposed a conjecture regarding the second gap, based on his ingenious…

We conclude our analysis of bubble divergences in the flat spinfoam model. In [arXiv:1008.1476] we showed that the divergence degree of an arbitrary two-complex Gamma can be evaluated exactly by means of twisted cohomology. Here, we…

Let $\mathbb{F}_{\Theta }=G/P_{\Theta }$ be a flag manifold associated to a non-compact real simple Lie group $G$ and the parabolic subgroup $% P_{\Theta }$. This is a closed subgroup of $G$ determined by a subset $% \Theta $ of simple…

We study the noncommutative minimal model program, as proposed by Halpern-Leistner, for Fano varieties. We construct lifts of Iritani's quantum cohomology central charge in the following examples: Grassmannians, smooth quadrics, and smooth…

The rational cohomology of the moduli space of rank two, odd degree stable bundles over a curve (of genus g > 1) has been studied intensely in recent years and in particular the invariant subring generated by Newstead's generators alpha,…

We apply the spectral curve topological recursion to Dubrovin's universal Landau-Ginzburg superpotential associated to a semi-simple point of any conformal Frobenius manifold. We show that under some conditions the expansion of the…

In this short note, we study the semi-simplicity of the quantum cohomology algebra H(V, C) of a Fano complete intersection V, and show that the subspace of H(V, C) generated by the hyperplane sections is semi-simple in the sense of Dubrovin…

These notes are the English version of the paper "Hyperbolicit\'e du graphe des rayons et quasi-morphismes sur un gros groupe modulaire". The mapping class group Gamma of the complement of a Cantor set in the plane arises naturally in…

In this short note we give an overview of recent work on string propagation on stacks and applications to gauged linear sigma models. We begin by outlining noneffective orbifolds (orbifolds in which a subgroup acts trivially) and related…

Andreotti-Vesentini, Ohsawa, Gromov, Koll\'ar, among others, have observed that Hodge theory could be extended to (non compact) K\"ahler complete manifolds, within the L^2 framework. Also, many vanishing theorems on projective or K\"ahler…

We compute the small cohomology ring of the Cayley Grassmannian, that parametrizes four-dimensional subalgebras of the complexified octonions. We show that all the Gromov-Witten invariants in the multiplication table of the Schubert classes…

We show that the small quantum product of the generalized flag manifold $G/B$ is a product operation on $H^*(G/B)\otimes \bR[q_1,..., q_l]$ uniquely determined by the fact that it is a deformation of the cup product on $H^*(G/B)$, it is…

The existence of universal unfoldings of certain germs of meromorphic connections is established. This is used to prove a general construction theorem for Frobenius manifolds. A particular case is Dubrovin's theorem on semisimple Frobenius…

Given a generic family $Q$ of 2-dimensional quadrics over a smooth 3-dimensional base $Y$ we consider the relative Fano scheme $M$ of lines of it. The scheme $M$ has a structure of a generically conic bundle $M \to X$ over a double covering…

The quantum cohomology algebra of the (full) flag manifold is a fundamental example in quantum cohomology theory, with connections to combinatorics, algebraic geometry, and integrable systems. Using a differential geometric approach, we…

We consider a prime Fano 6-fold $Y$ of index 3, which is a fine quiver moduli space and a blow down of $\mathrm{Hilb}^3(\mathds{P}^2)$. We calculate the quantum cohomology ring of $Y$ and obtain Quantum Chevalley formulas for the Schubert…

Let $N$ be a complete affine manifold $\mathbb{A}^n/\Gamma$ of dimension $n$, where $\Gamma$ is an affine transformation group acting on the complete affine space $\mathbb{A}^n$, and $K(\Gamma, 1)$ is realized as a finite CW-complex. $N$…

Consider the Fano manifold $X$ formed by blowing up $\mathbb{P}^n$ along its linear subspace $\mathbb{P}^r$, we check the conifold conditions [3, 1] for its mirror Laurent polynomial $f$, which can imply that $X$ satisfies both Conjecture…

Given a flat metric one may generate a local Hamiltonian structure via the fundamental result of Dubrovin and Novikov. More generally, a flat pencil of metrics will generate a local bi-Hamiltonian structure, and with additional…
