In this paper we propose and investigate in full generality new notions of (continuous, non-isometric) symmetry on hyperk\"ahler spaces. These can be grouped into two categories, corresponding to the two basic types of continuous…

The main goal of the present paper is the construction of twisted generalized differential cohomology theories and the comprehensive statement of its basic functorial properties. Technically it combines the homotopy theoretic approach to…

A general theory of topological classification of defects is introduced. We illustrate the application of tools from algebraic topology, including homotopy and cohomology groups, to classify defects including several explicit calculations…

We classify isotopy classes of automorphisms (self-homeomorphisms) of 3-manifolds satisfying the Thurston Geometrization Conjecture. The classification is similar to the classification of automorphisms of surfaces developed by Nielsen and…

We describe torsion classes in the first cohomology group of $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. In particular, we obtain generalized Dickson's invariants for p-power polynomial rings. Secondly, we describe torsion classes in the zero-th homology…

Quasiperiodic patterns described by polyhedral "atomic surfaces" and admitting matching rules are considered. It is shown that the cohomology ring of the continuous hull of such patterns is isomorphic to that of the complement of a torus…

In this paper we analyze six examples of birational transformations between toric orbifolds: three crepant resolutions, two crepant partial resolutions, and a flop. We study the effect of these transformations on genus-zero Gromov-Witten…

We prove that for any tau-symmetric bihamiltonian deformation of the tau-cover of the Principal Hierarchy associated with a semisimple Frobenius manifold, the deformed tau-cover admits an infinite set of Virasoro symmetries.

We prove conformal versions of the local decomposition theorems of de Rham and Hiepko of a Riemannian manifold as a Riemannian or a warped product of Riemannian manifolds. Namely, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a Riemannian…

In this note we formulate and prove a version of Cartan decomposition for holomorphic loop groups, similar to Cartan decomposition for $p$-adic loop groups, discussed proved by Garland (and later by the authors by geometric mathods). The…

In this article, we study the twisting procedure of orbifold cohomology. We introduce local system and construct twisted orbifold cohomology. Then, we generalize Vafa-Witten's notion of discrete torsion to general orbifold and examine its…

We prove a rigidity result for pairs of mappings of integrable dilatation whose gradients pointwise deform the unit ball to similar ellipses. Our result implies as corollaries a version of the generalized Stoilow decomposition provided by…

We study the twisted Novikov homology of the complement of a complex hypersurface in general position at infinity. We give a self-contained topological proof of the vanishing (except possibly in the middle degree) of the twisted Novikov…

We systematically study the moduli theory of symplectic varieties (in the sense of Beauville) which admit a resolution by an irreducible symplectic manifold. In particular, we prove an analog of Verbitsky's global Torelli theorem for the…

We introduce a notion of equivalence on tilings which is formulated in terms of their local structure. We compare it with the known concept of locally deriving one tiling from another and show that two tilings of finite type are…

Recently, Cappell and Miller extended the classical construction of the analytic torsion for de Rham complexes to coupling with an arbitrary flat bundle and the holomorphic torsion for $\bar{\partial}$-complexes to coupling with an…

We geometrize the constructions of twisted Poisson modules introduced by Luo-Wang-Wu, and Poisson chain complexes with coefficients in Poisson modules defined in the algebraic setting to the geometric setting of Poisson manifolds. We then…

Notions of the orthogonality and convolution orthogonality are explored with the use of the Kontorovich-Lebedev transform and its convolution. New classes of the corresponding orthogonal polynomials and functions are investigated. Integral…

This is the fourth in a series of papers where we prove a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer regarding the algebraic structure of ``global conformal invariants''; these are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars.…

We provide an intrinsic formulation of the noncommutative differential geometry developed earlier by Chaichian, Tureanu, R. B. Zhang and the second author. This yields geometric definitions of covariant derivatives of noncommutative metrics…
