After a historical discussion of classical uniformisation results for Riemann surfaces, of problems appearing in higher dimensions, and of uniformisation results for projective manifolds with trivial or ample canonical bundle, we introduce…

We construct reflection and translation operators on the Hilbert space corresponding to the torus by projecting them from the plane. These operators are shown to have the same group properties as their analogue on the plane. The…

The purpose of this paper is to prove the localization theorem for torus actions in equivariant intersection theory. Using the theorem we give another proof of the Bott residue formula for Chern numbers of bundles on smooth complete…

Motivated by previous computations of Y. Cao, M. Kool and the author, we propose square roots and sign rules for the vertex and edge terms that compute Donaldson-Thomas invariants of a toric Calabi-Yau 4-fold, and prove that they are…

Following a question of Vinberg, a general method to construct monomial bases for finite-dimensional irreducible representations of a reductive Lie algebra was developed in a series of papers by Feigin, Fourier, and Littelmann. Relying on…

Consider the diagonal action of the special orthogonal group on the direct sum of a finite number of copies of the standard representation--the underlying field is assumed to be algebraically closed and of characteristic not equal to two.…

Billey and Braden defined a geometric pattern map on flag manifolds which extends the generalized pattern map of Billey and Postnikov on Weyl groups. The interaction of this torus equivariant map with the Bruhat order and its action on line…

We consider tensor products of finite-dimensional representations of a coideal subalgebra in $U_{q}(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$. We present an explicit expression for the dual of the canonical bases through a diagrammatic presentation. We show that…

I describe the \emph{Chiral rings} $R_{3,4}$ for $3$D, $N=4$ supersymmetric $G$-gauge theory and matter fields in quaternionic representations $E$: first, by a topological tweak of the construction of arxiv:1601.03586, and second, more…

In previous work, the first three authors conjectured that the ring of regular functions on a natural class of affine log Calabi-Yau varieties (those with maximal boundary) has a canonical vector space basis parameterized by the integral…

A canonical basis in the sense of Lusztig is a basis of a free module over a ring of Laurent polynomials that is invariant under a certain semilinear involution and is obtained from a fixed "standard basis" through a triangular base change…

Let U be the quantum group associated to a Lie algebra g of rank n. The negative part U^- of U has a canonical basis B with favourable properties, introduced by Kashiwara and Lusztig. The approaches of Kashiwara and Lusztig lead to a set of…

We consider the relationship between hyperbolic cone-manifold structures on surfaces, and algebraic representations of the fundamental group into a group of isometries. A hyperbolic cone-manifold structure on a surface, with all interior…

Results are obtained on extending flat vector bundles or equivalently general representations from the fundamental group of S, a connected subsurface of the connected boundary of a compact, connected, oriented 3-dimensional manifold, to the…

We extend the equivariant holomorphic Morse inequalities of circle actions to cases with torus and non-Abelian group actions on holomorphic vector bundles over Kahler manifolds and show the necessity of the Kahler condition. For torus…

Let $G$ denote an adjoint semi-simple group over an algebraically closed field and $T$ a maximal torus of $G$. Following Contou-Carr\`ere [CC], we consider the Bott-Samelson resolution of a Schubert variety as a variety of galleries in the…

In this short note we prove the Borel conjecture for a family of aspherical manifolds that includes higher graph manifolds.

Let $G$ be a semi-simple simply connected algebraic group over the field $\mathbb{C}$ of complex numbers. Let $T$ be a maximal torus of $G,$ and let $W$ be the Weyl group of $G$ with respect to $T$. Let $Z(w,\, \underline{i})$ be the…

We show that a large class of maximally degenerating families of n-dimensional polarized varieties come with a canonical basis of sections of powers of the ample line bundle. The families considered are obtained by smoothing a reducible…

We study Cohen-Macaulay actions, a class of torus actions on manifolds, possibly without fixed points, which generalizes and has analogous properties as equivariantly formal actions. Their equivariant cohomology algebras are computable in…
