In this paper we propose a naive construction of 2-dimensional extended topological quantum field theories (TQFTs), which can be further generalized to the higher-dimension extended TQFTs.
The theory of integral, or Fourier-Mukai, transforms between derived categories of sheaves is a well established tool in noncommutative algebraic geometry. General "representation theorems" identify all reasonable linear functors between…
In this article we review some recent developments in heterotic compactifications. In particular we review an ``inherently toric'' description of certain sheaves, called equivariant sheaves, that has recently been discussed in the physics…
The goal of this work is to describe a categorical formalism for (Extended) Topological Quantum Field Theories (TQFTs) and present them as functors from a suitable category of cobordisms with corners to a linear category, generalizing 2d…
A quantum field theory generalization, Baaquie, of the Heath, Jarrow, and Morton (HJM) term structure model parsimoniously describes the evolution of imperfectly correlated forward rates. Field theory also offers powerful computational…
An overview of the accomplishments of constructive quantum field theory is provided.
We consider several related examples of Fourier-Mukai transformations involving the quot scheme. A method of showing conservativity of these Fourier-Mukai transformations is described.
We construct natural relative compactifications for the relative Jacobian over a family $X/S$ of reduced curves. In contrast with all the available compactifications so far, ours admit a universal sheaf, after an etale base change. Our…
Let T be a compact torus and X a nice compact T-space (say a manifold or variety). We introduce a functor assigning to X a "GKM-sheaf" F_X over a "GKM-hypergraph" G_X. Under the condition that X is equivariantly formal, the ring of global…
In this text, we outline a theory of schemes associated with a site, which generalizes a variety of geometries, such as manifolds, schemes, analytic spaces, simplicial complexes, and more. We present an abstract process of gluing model…
This is a mostly self-contained survey article about bundle gerbes and some of their recent applications in geometry, field theory, and quantisation. We cover the definition of bundle gerbes with connection and their morphisms, and explain…
We give a formalism of mixed sheaves on varieties over a subfield of the complex number field.
A series of successive quantizations is considered, starting with the quantization of a non relativistic or relativistic point particle: 1) quantization of a particle's position, 2) quantization of wave function, 3) quantization of wave…
We give an introduction to partially wrapped Fukaya categories of surfaces with orbifold singularities. Dissecting an orbifold surface $\mathbf S$ into polygons, certain dissections give rise to formal generators, inducing a triangulated…
This paper presents the theory of Bohr-Sommerfeld-Heisenberg quantization of a completely integrable Hamiltonian system in the context of geometric quantization. The theory is illustrated with several examples.
We use sheaf theory and the six operations to define and study the (equivariant) homology of stacks. The construction makes sense in the algebraic, complex-analytic, or even topological categories.
The understanding of the meaning of quantization seems to be the main problem in understanding quantum structures. In this paper first the difference between quantized particle vs. radiation fields in the formalism of canonical quantization…
These are notes on some entanglement properties of quantum field theory, aiming to make accessible a variety of ideas that are known in the literature. The main goal is to explain how to deal with entanglement when -- as in quantum field…
In this note, we consider the problem of constructing an enlargement of the category of Betti sheaves that supports an ``exponential local system'' on $\mathbb R$, and a Fourier equivalence defined on all sheaves. We show that there is a…
Whittaker sheaves are ubiquitous in geometric representation theory; however, their definition requires one to restrict the sheaf-theoretic setting to either \'etale sheaves or $D$-modules. Gaitsgory and Lysenko proposed a solution to this…
