A modular category $\mathcal{C}$ gives rise to a differential graded modular functor, i.e. a system of projective mapping class group representations on chain complexes. This differential graded modular functor assigns to the torus the…
We develop new tools to analyze the complexity of the conjugacy equivalence relation $E_\mathsf{lo}(G)$, whenever $G$ is a left-orderable group. Our methods are used to demonstrate non-smoothness of $E_\mathsf{lo}(G)$ for certain groups $G$…
We compute the product of any $n$-tuple of conjugacy classes in $SL_2(R)$
In this paper, we observe new phenomena related to the structure of 3-manifolds satisfying lower scalar curvature bounds. We construct warped-product manifolds of almost nonnegative scalar curvature that converge to pulled string spaces in…
We study a class of two-dimensional N=(2,2) sigma models called squashed toric sigma models, using their Gauged Linear Sigma Models (GLSM) description. These models are obtained by gauging the global U(1) symmetries of toric GLSMs and…
We continue to explore the conjectural expressions of the Gromov-Witten potentials for a class of elliptically and K3 fibered Calabi-Yau 3-folds in the limit where the base P^1 of the K3 fibration becomes infinitely large. At least in this…
We prove that the symplectic group $Sp(2n,\mathbb Z)$ and the mapping class group $Mod_{S}$ of a compact surface $S$ satisfy the $R_{\infty}$ property. We also show that $B_n(S)$, the full braid group on $n$-strings of a surface $S$,…
We define the tensor product of filtered $A_\infty$-algebras. establish some of its properties and give a partial description of the space of bounding cochains in the tensor product. Furthermore we show that in the case of classical…
We give further insights into the weighted Hurwitz product and the weighted tensor product of Joyal species. Our first group of results relate the Hurwitz product to the pointwise product, including the interaction with Rota--Baxter…
We prove that the module categories of Noether algebras (i.e., algebras module finite over a noetherian center) and affine noetherian PI algebras over a field enjoy the following product property: Whenever a direct product $\prod_{n \in…
We conjecture that a natural twisted derived category of any hyper-K\"ahler variety of $K3^{[n]}$-type is controlled by its Markman-Mukai lattice. We prove the conjecture under numerical constraints, and our proof relies heavily on…
Gross and Zagier defined certain `higher Green's functions' on products of modular curves and conjectured that the value of these functions at complex multiplication points should be logarithms of algebraic numbers. This is now a theorem of…
For each valued quiver $Q$ of Dynkin type, we construct a valued ice quiver $\Delta_Q^2$. Let $G$ be a simple connected Lie group with Dynkin diagram the underlying valued graph of $Q$. The upper cluster algebra of $\Delta_Q^2$ is graded by…
We describe the complex multiplication (CM) values of modular functions for $\Gamma_0(N)$ whose divisor is given by a linear combination of Heegner divisors in terms of special cycles on the stack of CM elliptic curves. In particular, our…
We show that Nichols algebras of most simple Yetter-Drinfeld modules over the projective special linear group over a finite field, corresponding to semisimple orbits, have infinite dimension. We introduce a new criterium to determine when a…
We propose a geometric realization of the Feigin-Loktev fusion product of graded cyclic modules over the current algebra. This allows us to compute it in several new cases. We also relate the Feigin-Loktev fusion product to the convolution…
A classical tensor product $A \,\otimes\, B$ of complete lattices $A$ and $B$, consisting of all down-sets in $A \times B$ that are join-closed in either coordinate, is isomorphic to the complete lattice $Gal(A,B)$ of Galois maps from $A$…
Let GL(n,q) be the group of nxn invertible matrices over a field with q elements, and SL(n,q) be the group of nxn matrices with determinant 1 over a field with q elements. We prove that the product of any two non-central conjugacy classes…
Surfaces of amplitude 1 in ordinary projective space are of general type, but this need not be the case in weighted projective spaces. Indeed, there are 4 classes of quasi-smooth weighted hypersurfaces in $\mathbf{P}(1,2,a,b)$ of amplitude…
This paper surveys the authors recent work on two variable elliptic genus of singular varieties. The last section calculates a generating function for the elliptic genera of symmetric products. This generalizes the classical results of…
