The self-duality of the transverse-field Ising model is an archetype for dualities that, alongside symmetry and topology, are used as an organizing principle throughout modern physics. This duality, however, is not exact. The original and…
We define a duality operation connecting closure operations, interior operations, and test ideals, and describe how the duality acts on common constructions such as trace, torsion, tight and integral closures, and divisible submodules. This…
The self-duality of Dirichlet $3$-brane action under the $SL(2,R)$ duality transformation of type IIB superstring theory is shown in the Hamiltonian form of the path integral for the partition function by performing the direct integration…
This paper presents a novel treatment of the canonical extension of a bounded lattice, in the spirit of thetheory of natural dualities. At the level of objects, this can be achieved by exploiting the topological representation due to M.…
Grothendieck duality theory assigns to essentially-finite-type maps f of noetherian schemes a pseudofunctor f^\times right-adjoint to Rf_*, and a pseudofunctor f^! agreeing with f^\times when f is proper, but equal to the usual inverse…
The present paper investigates a natural generalization of the duality between Riemannian symmetric pairs of compact type and those of non-compact type \`a la \'E. Cartan. The main result of this paper is to construct an explicit…
We propose a combinatorical duality for lattice polyhedra which conjecturally gives rise to the pairs of mirror symmetric families of Calabi-Yau complete intersections in toric Fano varieties with Gorenstein singularities. Our construction…
This is the second of two papers on the injective spectrum of a right noetherian ring. In the prequel, we considered the injective spectrum as a topological space associated to a ring (or, more generally, a Grothendieck category), which…
The spin representation $(\mathbb C^2)^{\otimes n}$ has a dual canonical basis introduced by Lusztig that is important in many areas of algebra, geometry, and physics. Khovanov observed that a portion of the dual canonical basis can be…
Let G be an arbitrary simple graph. The main results are explicit representations of the edge cone of G as a finite intersection of closed halfspaces. If G is bipartite and connected we determine the facets of the edge cone and present a…
The coprimary filtration is a basic construction in commutative algebra. In this article, we prove the existence and uniqueness of coprimary filtration of modules (not necessarily finitely generated) over a Noetherian ring. Moreover, we…
This expository talk is an expanded version of a lecture at G.-M. Greuel's 60th Birthday Conference in Kaiserslautern in October, 2004. We survey recent work of Neumann-Wahl and others on the relation between topology and geometry of normal…
This paper is devoted to systematically extend $f$-mirror symmetry between families of hypersurfaces in complete toric varieties, as introduced in \cite{R-fTV}, to families of complete intersections subvarieties. Namely, $f$-mirror symmetry…
In this paper we treat Grothendieck Duality for noetherian rings via rigid dualizing complexes. In particular, we prove that every ring, essentially finite type over a regular base ring, has a unique rigid dualizing complex. The rigid…
We propose a definition of when a triangulated category should be considered a complete intersection. We show (using work of Avramov and Gulliksen) that for the derived category of a complete local Noetherian commutative ring R, the…
The proof of the combinatorial Hard Lefschetz Theorem for the ``virtual'' intersection cohomology of a not necessarily rational polytopal fan that has been presented by K. Karu completely establishes Stanley's conjectures for the…
We study the algebraic dynamics of self-correspondences on a curve. A self-correspondence on a (proper and smooth) curve $C$ over an algebraically closed field is the data of another curve $D$ and two non-constant separable morphisms…
We establish a correspondence between trisections of smooth, compact, oriented $4$--manifolds with connected boundary and diagrams describing these trisected $4$--manifolds. Such a diagram comes in the form of a compact, oriented surface…
We study the uniqueness properties of classical semiconjugations for analytic self-maps of the disk, by characterizing them as canonical solutions to certain functional equations. As a corollary, we obtain a complete description of all…
In this paper, we introduce numerical cohomology for arithmetic surfaces, which leads to an absolute version of arithmetic Riemann-Roch formula. As an application, we derive an upper bound for the self-intersection number of relative…
