We propose multidimensional versions of the Painlev\'e VI equation and its degenerations. These field theories are related to the isomonodromy problems of flat holomorphic infinite rank bundles over elliptic curves and take the form of…
Six-dimensional (2, 0) theory can be defined on a large class of six-manifolds endowed with some additional topological and geometric data (i.e. an orientation, a spin structure, a conformal structure, and an R-symmetry bundle with…
We construct equivariant vector bundles over quantum projective spaces making use of parabolic Verma modules over the quantum general linear group. Using an alternative realization of the quantized coordinate ring of projective space as a…
We consider the dimensional reduction of N=(2,0) conformal supergravity in six dimensions on a two-torus to N=4 conformal supergravity in four dimensions. At the level of kinematics, the six-dimensional Weyl multiplet is shown to reduce to…
In this article we compute the mapping class group of the total space $S(\xi)$ of the sphere bundle of a 3-dimensional real vector bundle $\xi$ over the complex projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$ with $\langle p_1(\xi), [\mathbb{P}^2] \rangle…
As an analogy of superalgebra of multivector fields with the Schounte bracket, we introduce a non-trivial superbracket on differential forms of manifold. We show properties of this new superalgebra. We extend this superalgebra by adding one…
Classification theory and the study of projective varieties which are covered by rational curves of minimal degrees naturally leads to the study of families of singular rational curves. Since families of arbitrarily singular curves are hard…
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…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let f:X-->S be a flat, projective morphism of k-schemes of finite type with integral geometric fibers. We prove existence of a projective relative moduli space for semistable…
We construct stable vector bundles on the space of symmetric forms of degree d in n+1 variables which are equivariant for the action of SL_{n+1}(C), and admit an equivariant free resolution of length 2. For n=1, we obtain new examples of…
We compactify the pure spinor formalism on a K3 surface. The pure spinor splits into a six-dimensional pure spinor, a projective superspace harmonic, and 6 non-covariant variables. A homological algebra argument reduces the calculation of…
Let $G$ be a finite abelian group acting faithfully on ${\mathbb C}{\mathbb P}^1$ via holomorphic automorphisms. In \cite{DF2} the $G$--equivariant algebraic vector bundles on $G$--invariant affine open subsets of ${\mathbb C}{\mathbb P}^1$…
We describe in detail the derivation of a superconformal off-shell formulation of the alternative $\mathcal{N}=2$, $d=5$ ungauged supergravity of Nishino and Rajpoot, coupled to $n$ Abelian vector multiplets, using a general dilaton-Weyl…
We construct a mathematical framework for twisted N=2 supersymmetric topological quantum field theory on a 4-manifold. Supersymmetry in flat space is defined and the twist homomorphism is constructed, giving us a supermanifold that is the…
We discuss algebraic vector bundles on smooth k-schemes X contractible from the standpoint of A^1-homotopy theory; when k = C, the smooth manifolds X(C) are contractible as topological spaces. The integral algebraic K-theory and integral…
The paper is devoted to the description of the varieties of complex 5-dimensional nilpotent Jordan superalgebras. We find all representatives for the isomorphism classes, using the Jordan normal form, results of simultaneous matrix…
We will give a geometric description of the nth transversal homotopy monoid of k-dimensional complex projective space, where we stratify by lower dimensional complex projective spaces in the usual way. Transversal homotopy monoids are…
Supersymmetry is deeply related to division algebras. Nonabelian Yang-Mills fields minimally coupled to massless spinors are supersymmetric if and only if the dimension of spacetime is 3, 4, 6 or 10. The same is true for the Green-Schwarz…
The concept of self-dual supersymmetric nonlinear electrodynamics is generalized to a curved superspace of N = 1 supergravity, for both the old minimal and the new minimal versions of N = 1 supergravity. We derive the self-duality equation,…
Superconformal tensor calculus on an orbifold S^1/Z_2 is given in five-dimensional (5D) spacetime. The four-dimensional superconformal Weyl multiplet and various matter multiplets are induced on the boundary planes from the 5D…
