Let $k$ be a field, let $G$ be a reductive algebraic group over $k$, and let $V$ be a linear representation of $G$. Geometric invariant theory involves the study of the $k$-algebra of $G$-invariant polynomials on $V$, and the relation…

Let $G = GL(V)$ for an N-dimensional vector space $V$ over an algebraically closed field k, and $G^{\theta}$ the fixed point subgroup of $G$ under an involution $\theta$ on $G$. In the case where $G^{\theta} = O(V)$, the generalized…

One of the most fundamental open problems in Incidence Geometry, posed by Tits in the 1960s, asks for the existence of so-called "locally finite generalized polygons" | that is, generalized polygons with "mixed parameters" (one being finite…

We show that the classification of the symmetric spaces can be achieved by K-theoretical methods. We focus on Hermitian symmetric spaces of non-compact type, and define K-theory for JB*-triples along the lines of C*-theory. K-groups have to…

The article investigates the following question: given a projective variety X acted on by a connected and reductive group G, which is the relationship between the Gromov-Witten invariants of X and those of X//G? In this study we shall also…

We generalize the family of $(\sigma, \rho)$-problems and locally checkable vertex partition problems to their distance versions, which naturally captures well-known problems such as distance-$r$ dominating set and distance-$r$ independent…

We introduce the notion of equiangular tight frames in real symplectic spaces and formulate a conjecture on their existence in terms of the dimension and number of vectors. Our main results shows the "symplectic Zauner's conjecture" is…

We study moduli spaces of twisted quasimaps to a hypertoric variety $X$, arising as the Higgs branch of an abelian supersymmetric gauge theory in three dimensions. These parametrise general quiver representations whose building blocks are…

Twisted modules over vertex algebras formalize the relations among twisted vertex operators and have applications to conformal field theory and representation theory. A recent generalization, called twisted logarithmic module, involves the…

K-Theory for hermitian symmetric spaces of non-compact type, as developed recently by the authors, allows to put Cartan's classification into a homological perspective. We apply this method to the case of inductive limits of finite…

This is an overview of some of the invariants that were discovered by Welschinger in the context of enumerative real algebraic geometry. Their definition finds a natural setup in real symplectic geometry. In particular, they can be studied…

The symplectization of an overtwisted contact structure in Euclidean 3--space is shown to be an exotic symplectic structure on Euclidean 4--space. The technique can be extended to produce exotic symplectic structures in higher dimensional…

The complex Plateau problem is analogous, in a Hermitian complex manifold, to the classical Plateau problem in 3 dimensional real space: it is a geometrical problem of extension of a closed real manifold into a complex analytic subvariety,…

Let G denote a group and let W be an algebra over a commutative ring R. We will say that W is a G-graded twisted algebra (not necessarily commutative, neither associative) if there exists a G-grading W=\bigoplus_{g \in G}W_{g} where each…

Let $W$ be a vector space over an algebraically closed field $k$. Let $H$ be a quasisimple group of Lie type of characteristic $p\ne {\rm char}(k)$ acting irreducibly on $W$. Suppose also that $G$ is a classical group with natural module…

Let $\mathbb F$ be a field of characteristic not $2$, and let $(A,B)$ be a pair of $n\times n$ matrices over $\mathbb F$, in which $A$ is symmetric and $B$ is skew-symmetric. A canonical form of $(A,B)$ with respect to congruence…

We generalize graded Hecke algebras to include a twisting two-cocycle for the associated finite group. We give examples where the parameter spaces of the resulting twisted graded Hecke algebras are larger than that of the graded Hecke…

This is the third paper of a series relating the equivariant twisted $K$-theory of a compact Lie group $G$ to the ``Verlinde space'' of isomorphism classes of projective lowest-weight representations of the loop groups. Here, we treat…
