We consider a discrete version of reaction-diffusion equations. A typical example is the fully overdamped Frenkel-Kontorova model, where the velocity is proportional to the force. We also introduce an additional exterior force denoted by…

Let $S$ be a smooth del Pezzo surface over a field $k$ of characteristic $\neq 2, 3$. We define an invariant in the Grothendieck-Witt ring $GW(k)$ for "counting" rational curves in a curve class $D$ of fixed positive degree (with respect to…

We calculate the Kac determinant for the quasi-finite representation of \Winf algebra up to level 8. It vanishes only when the central charge is integer. We give an algebraic construction of null states and propose the character formulae.…

We show that the algebraic automorphism group of the SL(2,C) character variety of a closed orientable surface with negative Euler characteristic is a finite extension of its mapping class group. Along the way, we provide a simple…

We give a Chern-Weil map for the Gel'fand-Fuks characteristic classes of Haefliger-singular foliations, those foliations defined by smooth Haefliger structures with dense regular set. Our characteristic map constructs, out of singular…

Let k be a an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, and we let h be the usual Weil height for the n-dimensional affine space corresponding to the function field k(t) (extended to its algebraic closure). We prove that for…

If $M$ is a closed manifold, and $K$ is a smooth triangulation of $M$, Whitney proved that all of the Stiefel-Whitney classes are specified as cochains on the dual cell complex $(K')^*$ assigning the value $1$ mod $2$ to each dual cell. We…

Simple, or Kleinian, singularities are classified by Dynkin diagrams of type ADE. Let g be the corresponding finite-dimensional Lie algebra, and W its Weyl group. The set of g-invariants in the basic representation of the affine Kac-Moody…

The fundamental invariants for vector ODEs of order $\ge 3$ considered up to point transformations consist of generalized Wilczynski invariants and C-class invariants. An ODE of C-class is characterized by the vanishing of the former. For…

We apply integral representations for $(0,q)$-forms, $q\ge1$, on non-smooth strictly pseudoconvex domains, the Henkin-Leiterer domains, to derive weighted $C^k$ estimates for a given $(0,q)$-form, $f$, in terms of $C^k$ norms of $\mdbar f$,…

We introduce a generalization of Weinstein's morphism, defined on \pi_{2k-1}(Ham(M,\omega)) for 1 < k \leq n, where (M,\omega) is a 2n-dimensional symplectic manifold. Using this morphism, we show that for n > 1 and 1 < k \leq n, the…

Recently, it has been shown that wave function coefficients (WFCs) admit a natural description in terms of the orthogonal Grassmannian, furnishing homogeneous solutions to the three-dimensional conformal Ward identities in spinor-helicity…

Given varieties $X, Y, W$ and dominant morphisms $\phi:X\to Y$ and $f:X\to W$ such that $f$ is constant on fibres of $\phi$ , we give sufficient conditions to guarantee that $f$ descends to a rational map or a morphism $Y\to W.$ We pay…

Ext-int.\ one affine functions are functions affine in the direction of one-divisible exterior forms, with respect to exterior product in one variable and with respect to interior product in the other. The purpose of this article is to…

CFTs are naturally defined on Riemann surfaces. The rational ones can be solved using methods from algebraic geometry. One particular feature is the covariance of the partition function under the mapping class group. In genus $g=1$, this…

Let $A$ and $C$ be two unital simple C*-algebas with tracial rank zero. Suppose that $C$ is amenable and satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem. Denote by ${{KK}}_e(C,A)^{++}$ the set of those $\kappa$ for which…

We discuss an approach to the secant non-defectivity of the varieties parametrizing $k$-th powers of forms of degree $d$. It employs a Terracini type argument along with certain degeneration arguments, some of which are based on toric…

We generalize Wagoner's representation of the automorphism group of a two-sided subshifts of finite type as the fundamental group of a certain CW-complex to groupoids having a certain refinement structure. This significantly streamlines the…

We consider dissipative strongly competitive systems $\dot{x}_{i}=x_{i}f_{i}(x)$ of ordinary differential equations. It is known that for a wide class of such systems there exists an invariant attracting hypersurface $\Sigma$, called the…

In this work, we study families of singular surfaces in $\mathbb{C}^3$ parametrized by $\mathcal{A}$-finitely determined map germs. We consider the topological triviality and Whitney equisingularity of an unfolding $F$ of a finitely…
