We propose a systematic scheme for computing the variation of rearrangement operators arising in the recently developed spectral geometry on noncommutative tori and $\theta$-deformed Riemannian manifolds. It can be summarized as a category…
We study the homogeneous coordinate rings of real multiplication noncommutative tori as defined by A. Polishchuk. Our aim is to understand how these rings give rise to an arithmetic structure on the noncommutative torus. We start by giving…
It is well known that the correlation functions of a scalar field in a quasi-de Sitter space exhibit at the loop level cumulative infra-red effects proportional to the total number of e-foldings of inflation. Using the in-in formalism, we…
We study modular properties of conformal field theories perturbed by holomorphic fields. We prove an asymptotic formula for the modular S-transform of a generalized partition function that includes zero modes of higher spin holomorphic…
Modular invariance is a striking symmetry in string theory, which may keep stringy corrections under control. In this paper, we investigate a phenomenological consequence of the modular invariance, assuming that this symmetry is preserved…
We enumerate smooth rational curves on very general Weierstrass fibrations over hypersurfaces in projective space. The generating functions for these numbers lie in the ring of classical modular forms. The method of proof uses topological…
Light-cone string diagrams have been used to reproduce the orbifold Euler characteristic of moduli spaces of punctured Riemann surfaces at low genus and with few punctures. Nakamura studied the meromorphic differential introduced by…
We transform the one-loop four-point type $\mathrm{I}$ open superstring gluon amplitude to correlation functions on the celestial sphere including both the (non-)orientable planar and non-planar sector. This requires a Mellin transform with…
A worldsheet realization of the refined topological string is proposed in terms of physical string amplitudes that compute generalized N=2 F-terms of the form F_{g,n} W^{2g}Y^{2n} in the effective supergravity action. These terms involve…
We calculate some extremal and non-extremal four-point functions on the sphere of certain chiral primary operators for strings on AdS_3 x S^3 x T^4. The computation is done for small values of the spacetime cross-ratio where global SL(2)…
In previous work we have shown that large $N$ field theory amplitudes, in Schwinger parametrised form, can be organised into integrals over the stringy moduli space ${\cal M}_{g,n}\times R_{+}^n$. Here we flesh this out into a concrete…
The algebra of differential geometry operations on symmetric tensors over constant curvature manifolds forms a novel deformation of the sl(2,R) [semidirect product] R^2 Lie algebra. We present a simple calculus for calculations in its…
An overview is given of the construction of a differential polynomial ring of functions on the moduli space of Calabi-Yau threefolds. These rings coincide with the rings of quasi modular forms for geometries with duality groups for which…
The phenomenology of the scaling behavior of higher order structure functions of velocity differences across a scale $R$ in turbulence should be built around the irreducible representations of the rotation symmetry group. Every irreducible…
An analytic representation with Theta functions on a torus, for systems with variables in Z(d), is considered. Another analytic representation with Theta functions on a strip, for systems with positions in a circle S and momenta in Z, is…
We further develop the asymptotic analytic approach to the study of scattering diagrams. We do so by analyzing the asymptotic behavior of Maurer-Cartan elements of a differential graded Lie algebra constructed from a (not-necessarily…
Classical functional calculus is primarily spectral, capturing eigenvalue information through resolvent methods while largely ignoring nilpotent structure. Building on the projector-nilpotent characterization developed in our companion…
We give a categorical setting in which Penrose graphical calculus naturally extends to graphs drawn on the boundary of a handlebody. We use it to introduce invariants of 3-manifolds presented by Heegaard splittings. We recover Kuperberg…
Submodular functions have been studied extensively in machine learning and data mining. In particular, the optimization of submodular functions over the integer lattice (integer submodular functions) has recently attracted much interest,…
Let~$X=\Po/\Gamma$ be an~$n$-punctured sphere, $n>3$. We introduce and study~$n-3$ deformation operators on the space of modular forms~$M_*(\Gamma)$ based on the classical theory of uniformizing differential equations and accessory…
