In this paper we study three aspects of (P(M)/~), the set of Murray-von Neumann equivalence classes of projections in a von Neumann algebra M. First we determine the topological structure that (P(M)/~) inherits from the operator topologies…
Let $\Gamma$ be the Fuchsian group of the first kind. For an even integer $m\ge 4$, we study $m/2$-holomorphic differentials in terms of space of (holomorphic) cuspidal modular forms $S_m(\Gamma)$. We also give in depth study of Wronskians…
Branches of moduli space of F-theory in four dimensions are investigated. The transition between two branches is described as a 3-brane-instanton transition on a 7-brane. A dual heterotic picture of the transition is presented and the…
A complete description of 4-by-4 matrices $\begin{bmatrix}\alpha I & C \\D & \beta I\end{bmatrix}$, with scalar 2-by-2 diagonal blocks, for which the numerical range is the convex hull of two non-concentric ellipses is given. This result is…
\begin{abstract} {In this paper we study difference and $(\Delta)$ properties for the classes of the form $C_0(J,X)$, $\frak {g} \U$, $\U+\frak {g} \V$, where $\U, \V\in \{BUC(J,X), UC(J,X)\}$ and $\frak{g} (t)=e^{it^2}$, $t\in \mathbb{R}$.…
Dimensional reduction has proven to be a surprisingly powerful tool for delineating the boundary between the string landscape and the swampland. Bounds from the Weak Gravity Conjecture and the Repulsive Force Conjecture, for instance, are…
I describe a new class of quintessence+CDM models in which late time scalar field oscillations can give rise to both quintessence and cold dark matter. Additionally, a versatile ansatz for the luminosity distance is used to reconstruct the…
We introduce a continuum of dimensions which are `intermediate' between the familiar Hausdorff and box dimensions. This is done by restricting the families of allowable covers in the definition of Hausdorff dimension by insisting that $|U|…
The moduli space of the Calabi-Yau three-folds, which play a role as superstring ground states, exhibits the same {\em special geometry} that is known from nonlinear sigma models in $N=2$ supergravity theories. We discuss the symmetry…
We study the moduli spaces of heterotic/type II dual pairs in four dimensions with N=2 supersymmetry corresponding to non-geometric Calabi-Yau backgrounds on the type II side and to T-fold compactifications on the heterotic side. The vector…
We discuss the structure of heterotic/type II duality in four dimensions as a consequence of string-string duality in six dimensions. We emphasize the new features in four dimensions which go beyond the six dimensional vacuum structure and…
We initiate the S-matrix bootstrap analysis of theories with non-invertible symmetries in (1+1) dimensions. Our previous work showed that crossing symmetry of S-matrices in such theories is modified, with modification characterized by the…
A continuous quadratic form ("quadratic form", in short) on a Banach space $X$ is: (a) delta-semidefinite (i.e., representable as a difference of two nonnegative quadratic forms) if and only if the corresponding symmetric linear operator…
We show that an action of a supermembrane in an eleven-dimensional spacetime with a semi-light-cone gauge can be written only with Nambu-Poisson bracket and an invariant symmetric bilinear form under an approximation. Thus, the action under…
This thesis is divided in two parts. The first part contains the study of some properties of the electromagnetic duality in 4 dimensions. An extended double potential formalism for linearized gravity is introduced which allows to write an…
In this note we construct smooth bounded domains $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^2$, other than disks, for which the overdetermined problem $$ \left\{ \begin{alignedat}{2} \Delta u + \lambda u &= 0 &\qquad& \text{ in } \Omega, \newline u &= b…
For fields with more than $2$ elements, the classification of the vector spaces of matrices with rank at most $2$ is already known. In this work, we complete that classification for the field $\mathbb{F}_2$. We apply the results to obtain…
The properties of Dirac gamma matrices in a four-dimensional space-time with the $(2,2)$ signature are studied. The basic spinors are classified, and the existence of Majorana-Weyl spinors is noted. Supersymmetry in $2 + 2$ dimensions is…
Multi-task dense prediction, which aims to jointly solve tasks like semantic segmentation and depth estimation, is crucial for robotics applications but suffers from domain shift when deploying models in new environments. While unsupervised…
