Motivated by group-theoretical questions that arise in the context of asymptotic symmetries in gravity, we study model spaces and their quantization from the viewpoint of constrained Hamiltonian systems. More precisely, we propose that a…

Given a measure space ${\mathcal X}$, we can construct a number of induced structures: eg. its $L^2$ space, the space ${\mathcal P}({\mathcal X})$ of probability distributions on ${\mathcal X}$. If, in addition, ${\mathcal X}$ admits a…

In this article we study the Gieseker-Maruyama moduli spaces $\mathcal{B}(e,n)$ of stable rank 2 algebraic vector bundles with Chern classes $c_1=e\in\{-1,0\},\ c_2=n\ge1$ on the projective space $\mathbb{P}^3$. We construct two new…

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group. We introduce a semiclassical framework, called Borel-Weil calculus, to investigate $G$-equivariant (pseudo)differential operators acting on $G$-principal bundles over closed manifolds. In this calculus, the…

Higgs bundles are a central tool used to study a range of intersecting brane systems in string compactifications. Solutions to the internal gauge theory equations of motion for the corresponding worldvolume theories of branes give rise to…

Let $(M, \omega)$ be a 6-dimensional closed symplectic manifold with a symplectic $S^1$-action with $M^{S^1} \neq \emptyset$ and $\dim M^{S^1} \leq 2$. Assume that $\omega$ is integral with a generalized moment map $\mu$. We first prove…

Given a compact complex manifold $M$, we investigate the holomorphic vector bundles $E$ on $M$ such that $\varphi^* E$ is trivial for some surjective holomorphic map $\varphi$, to $M$, from some compact complex manifold. We prove that these…

In a previous work, the authors introduced the notion of `coherent tangent bundle', which is useful for giving a treatment of singularities of smooth maps without ambient spaces. Two different types of Gauss-Bonnet formulas on coherent…

Let $G$ be a compact and connected Lie group. The Hamiltonian $G$-model functor maps the category of symplectic representations of closed subgroups of $G$ to the category of exact Hamiltonian $G$-actions. Based on previous joint work with…

In this paper, we introduce the classification of equivariant principal bundles over the 2-sphere. Isotropy representations provide tools for understanding the classification of equivariant principal bundles. We consider a…

A new symmetry of $(1,0)$ supersymmetric non-linear $\sigma$-models in two dimensions with Fermi and mass sectors is introduced. It is a generalisation of the so-called special holonomy $W$-symmetry of Howe and Papadopoulos associated with…

We provide an integral formula for the Maslov index of a pair $(E,F)$ over a surface $\Sigma$, where $E\rightarrow\Sigma$ is a complex vector bundle and $F\subset E_{|\partial\Sigma}$ is a totally real subbundle. As in Chern-Weil theory,…

We study the hard Lefschetz property on compact symplectic solvmanifolds, i.e., compact quotients $M=\Gamma\backslash G$ of a simply-connected solvable Lie group $G$ by a lattice $\Gamma$, admitting a symplectic structure.

We study geometric properties of characteristic classes of surfaces bundles. In particular, we show that oriented surface bundles over bases with amenable fundamental groups and dimension at least 2 have trivial simplicial volume. We show…

Consider the principal $U(n)$ bundles over Grassmann manifolds $U(n)\rightarrow U(n+m)/U(m) \stackrel{\pi}\rightarrow G_{n,m}$. Given $X \in U_{m,n}(\mathbb{C})$ and a 2-dimensional subspace $\mathfrak{m}' \subset \mathfrak{m} $ $ \subset…
