This is the first of three articles on the Fibered Isomorphism Conjecture of Farrell and Jones for L-theory. We apply the general techniques developed in [15] and [16] to the L-theory case of the conjecture and prove several results. Here…
In this paper, we establish the ergodicity of the Airy line ensemble. This shows that it is the only candidate for Conjecture 3.2 in [3], regarding the classification of ergodic line ensembles satisfying a certain Brownian Gibbs property…
We show that the one-instanton sector moduli-space divergence of the O(3) Sigma Model leads to an unacceptable dependence of Green's functions on the arbitrary way that the field is split into a quantum fluctuation about a classical…
We consider Floer homology associated to a pair of closed Lagrangian submanifolds that satisfy a monotonicty assumption. If the Lagrangians intersect cleanly we decribe two spectral sequences which help to compute their Floer homology. The…
We construct Ulrich bundles on Veronese threefolds of arbitrary degree as generic deformations of symmetric squares of equivariant instanton bundles on the projective space, thus classifying the rank of Ulrich bundles on such varieties and…
We study the equivalence among orientifold three-planes in the context of the Atiyah-Hirzebruch Spectral Sequence. This equivalence refers to the fact that two different cohomology classes in the same cohomology group, which classify the…
We develop an equivariant Lagrangian Floer theory for Liouville sectors that have symmetry of a Lie group $G$. Moreover, for Liouville manifolds with $G$-symmetry, we develop a correspondence theory to relate the equivariant Lagrangian…
Yang-Mills instantons in a pure Yang-Mills theory in four Euclidean space can be promoted to particle-like topological solitons in d=4+1 dimensional space-time. When coupled to Higgs fields, they transform themselves in the Higgs phase into…
The present paper is the first in a series of papers, in which we shall construct modular functors and Topological Quantum Field Theories from the conformal field theory developed in [TUY]. The basic idea is that the covariant constant…
In the moduli space of semistable $\text{SL}(r, \mathbb{C})$-Higgs bundles, we show that there exists a sublocus of the upward flow through a polystable $\mathbb{C}^{*}$-fixed point, which is Lagrangian on its intersection with the stable…
Farkas and Ortega found counterexamples to Mercat's conjecture by restricting to a hyperplane section $C$ some suitable rank-two vector bundles on a $K3$ surface whose Picard group is generated by $C$ and another very ample divisor. We…
We introduce a joint project with Cheol-Hyun Cho on the construction of quantum-corrected moduli of Lagrangian immersions. The construction has important applications to mirror symmetry for pair-of-pants decompositions, SYZ and…
The object of this paper is to define a subcategory of the category of 3-cobordisms to which invariants of rational homology 3-spheres should generalize. We specify the notion of Topological Quantum Field Theory (in the sense of Atiyah) to…
Since its inception, Floer homology has been an important tool in low-dimensional topology. Floer theoretic invariants of $3$-manifolds tend to be either gauge theoretic or symplecto-geometric in nature, and there is a general philosophy…
Two dimensional N=(4,4) gauge theories flow to interacting superconformal field theories on their Higgs branch. We examine worldsheet instantons in these theories through the eyes of a D-brane construction. The effective instanton partition…
We construct an obstruction for the existence of embeddings of homology $3$-sphere into homology $S^3\times S^1$ under some cohomological condition. The obstruction is defined as an element in the filtered version of the instanton Floer…
Hypermultiplet couplings in type IIA string theory on a Calabi-Yau space can be quantum corrected by D2-brane instantons wrapping special Lagrangian cycles. On the other hand, hypermultiplet couplings in the heterotic string on a K3 surface…
Recently, conformal field theories in six dimensions were discussed from the twistorial point of view. In particular, it was demonstrated that the twistor transform between chiral zero-rest-mass fields and cohomology classes on twistor…
We provide a construction of equivariant Lagrangian Floer homology $HF_G(L_0, L_1)$, for a compact Lie group $G$ acting on a symplectic manifold $M$ in a Hamiltonian fashion, and a pair of $G$-Lagrangian submanifolds $L_0, L_1 \subset M$.…
Since spectral invariants were introduced in cotangent bundles via generating functions by Viterbo in the seminal paper "Symplectic topology as the geometry of generating functions," they have been defined in various contexts, mainly via…
