We construct natural operators connecting the cohomology of the moduli spaces of stable Higgs bundles with different ranks and genera which, after numerical specialization, recover the topological mirror symmetry conjecture of…
In this paper, we develop canonical bundle formulas for fibrations of relative dimension one in characteristic $p>0$. For such a fibration from a log pair $f\colon (X, \Delta) \to S$, if $f$ is separable, we can obtain a formula similar to…
In the world of chain complexes E_n-algebras are the analogues of based n-fold loop spaces in the category of topological spaces. Fresse showed that operadic E_n-homology of an E_n-algebra computes the homology of an n-fold algebraic…
We study the quantization of spaces whose K-theory in the classical limit is the ring of dual numbers $\mathbb{Z}[t]/(t^2)$. For a compact Hausdorff space we recall necessary and sufficient conditions for this to hold. For a compact quantum…
The embedded contact homology (ECH) of a 3-manifold with a contact form is a variant of Eliashberg-Givental-Hofer's symplectic field theory, which counts certain embedded J-holomorphic curves in the symplectization. We show that the ECH of…
We consider the spherical DG category $Sph_G$ attached to an affine algebraic group $G$. By definition, $Sph_G := IndCoh(LS_G(S^2))$ consists of ind-coherent sheaves of the stack of $G$-local systems on the $2$-sphere $S^2$. The…
We provide an intersection-theoretic formula for the Euler characteristic of the moduli space of smooth curves. This formula reads purely in terms of Hodge integrals and, as a corollary, the standard calculus of tautological classes gives a…
We begin by introducing schemes of binoids, invertible $\mathcal{O}_M$-sets and cohomology of sheaves of abelian groups defined on schemes of binoids. We define the so-called punctured combinatorial \v{C}ech-Picard complex, whose first…
We prove the equivariant Leray-Hirsch theorem combinatorially for sufficiently good torus equivariant fiber bundles consisting of homogeneous spaces of Lie groups. We apply this theorem to determining the equivariant integral cohomology…
We show that a twistor construction of Hitchin and Ward can be adapted to study unitons (harmonic spheres in a unitary group). Specifically, we show that unitons are equivalent to holomorphic bundles with extra structure over a rational…
We present a conjecture generalizing the Cauchy formula for Macdonald polynomials. This conjecture encodes the mixed Hodge polynomials of the character varieties of representations of the fundamental group of a Riemann surface of genus g to…
We calculate the characteristic classes for flat SL(n,R) and Sp(2m,R)-bundles over a compact surface as functions of the spectral data in the Higgs bundle description, which consists of the points of order 2 in an abelian variety. Using…
We establish an upper bound for the cochain type level of the total space of a pull-back fibration. It explains to us why the numerical invariant for a principal bundle over the sphere are less than or equal to two. Moreover computational…
Let G be a compact connected Lie group and H, the centralizer of a one-parameter subgroup in G. Combining the ideas of Bott-Samelson resulotions of Schubert varieties and the enumerative formula on a twisted products of 2-spheres obatained…
We study the $SL(2, \mathbb{C})$ character variety of a Seifert-fibered homology $3$-sphere from the point of view of gauge theory. Namely, we introduce a class of perturbations of the $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$ Chern--Simons functional and prove a…
This work is the geometric part of our proof of the weighted fundamental lemma, which is an extension of Ng\^o Bao Ch\^au's proof of the Langlands-Shelstad fundamental lemma. Ng\^o's approach is based on a study of the elliptic part of the…
We introduce the \emph{parameter-geometrization} to the Hitchin system, a paradigm embedding deformation parameters into geometry via the coupled Hitchin-He equations on a surface with boundary. A boundary term couples a second Higgs field…
The cotangent bundle $T^*X$ of a smooth intersection $X$ of two quadrics admits a Lagrangian fibration determined by the intrinsic geometry of $X$. We show that this fibration is actually the Hitchin morphism if we endow $X$ with a…
In this note we derive the net number of generations of chiral fermions in heterotic string compactifications on Calabi-Yau threefolds with certain SU(n) vector bundles, for n odd, using the parabolic approach for bundles. We compare our…
We describe an iterable construction of THH for an E_n ring spectrum. The reduced version is an iterable bar construction and its n-th iterate gives a model for the shifted cotangent complex at the augmentation, representing reduced…
