Let E and E' be elliptic curves over Q with complex multiplication by the ring of integers of an imaginary quadratic field K and let Y=Kum(ExE') be the minimal desingularisation of the quotient of ExE' by the action of -1. We study the…
In this paper we fully describe the cuspidal and the Eisenstein cohomology of the group $G=GL_2$ over a definite quaternion algebra $D/\Q$. Functoriality is used to show the existence of residual and cuspidal automorphic forms, having…
We study the chiral rings in N=2 and N=4 superconformal algebras. The chiral primary states of N=2 superconformal algebras realized over hermitian triple systems are given. Their coset spaces G/H are hermitian symmetric which can be compact…
We prove a number of results on the structure and representation theory of the rational Cherednik algebra of the imprimitive reflection group $G(\ell,p,n)$. In particular, we: (1) show a relationship to the Coulomb branch construction of…
The paper contains the construction of a topological quantum field theory in which gluings along surfaces with boundary are allowed. The construction is made by using quantum deformations of sl(2,C). In the construction there appears a sign…
The existing classification of homogeneous quaternionic spaces is not complete. We study these spaces in the context of certain $N=2$ supergravity theories, where dimensional reduction induces a mapping between {\em special} real, K\"ahler…
Chiral orbifold models are defined as gauge field theories with a finite gauge group $\Gamma$. We start with a conformal current algebra A associated with a connected compact Lie group G and a negative definite integral invariant bilinear…
Let $E$ be a cubic \'etale extension of the rational numbers which is totally real, i.e., $E \otimes \mathbf{R} \simeq \mathbf{R} \times \mathbf{R} \times \mathbf{R}$. There is an algebraic $\mathbf{Q}$-group $S_E$ defined in terms of $E$,…
We introduce and begin to study Lie theoretical analogs of symplectic reflection algebras for a finite cyclic group, which we call "cyclic double affine Lie algebra". We focus on type A : in the finite (resp. affine, double affine) case, we…
We study the dynamics of a large class of N=1 quiver theories, geometrically realized by type IIB D-brane probes wrapping cycles of local Calabi-Yau threefolds. These include N=2 (affine) A-D-E quiver theories deformed by superpotential…
We use the theory of trianguline $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules over pseudorigid spaces to prove a modularity lifting theorem for certain Galois representations which are trianguline at $p$, including those with characteristic $p$ coefficients.…
The Cachazo-Douglas-Seiberg-Witten conjecture, concerning the algebraic structure of the chiral ring in N=1, D=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, is proven for exceptional gauge groups. This completes the proof of the conjecture.
In four spacetime dimensions, the classically integrable self-dual sectors of gauge theory and gravity have associated chiral algebras, which emerge naturally from their description in twistor space. We show that there are similar chiral…
We study the representation of a finite group acting on the cohomology of a non-degenerate, invariant hypersurface of a projective toric variety. We deduce an explicit description of the representation when the toric variety has at worst…
We study a set of cohomology classes which emerge in the cohomological formulations of the calculus of variations as obstructions to the existence of (global) solutions of the Euler--Lagrange equations of Chern--Simons gauge theories in…
We construct invertible field theories generalizing abelian prequantum spin Chern-Simons theory to manifolds of dimension 4k+3 endowed with a Wu structure of degree 2k+2. After analysing the anomalies of a certain discrete symmetry, we…
Following McDuff and Tolman's work on toric manifolds [McDT06], we focus on 4-dimensional NEF toric manifolds and we show that even though Seidel's elements consist of infinitely many contributions, they can be expressed by closed formulas.…
M\"obius transformations of the extended complex plane are at the crossroads of many interesting topics, e.g., they form a group under composition, are the simplest form of rational function, and are a path to Lie theory. Quaternionic…
Some gauge theories with Coulomb branches exhibit singularities in perturbation theory, which are usually resolved by nonperturbative physics. In string theory this corresponds to the resolution of timelike singularities near the core of…
Octonionic algebra being nonassociative is difficult to manipulate. We introduce left-right octonionic barred operators which enable us to reproduce the associative GL(8,R) group. Extracting the basis of GL(4,C), we establish an interesting…
