Deformations of ordinary varieties of K3 type can be described in terms of displays by recent work of Langer-Zink. We extend this to the general (non-ordinary) case using displays with $G$-structure for a reductive group $G$. As a basis we…
Integrable quantum field theories can be regularized on the lattice while preserving integrability. The resulting theory on the lattice are integrable lattice models. A prototype of such a regularization is the correspondence between…
For all n > 0 there is a homomorphism from the smooth concordance group of knots in dimension 2n + 1 to an algebraically defined group called the rational algebraic concordance group. This algebraic concordance group splits as a direct sum…
We introduce natural deformation classes of generalized K\"ahler structures using the Courant symmetry group. We show that these yield natural extensions of the notions of K\"ahler class and K\"ahler cone to generalized K\"ahler geometry.…
We study a notion of deformation for simplicial trees with group actions (G-trees). Here G is a fixed, arbitrary group. Two G-trees are related by a deformation if there is a finite sequence of collapse and expansion moves joining them. We…
The Slodowy slice is a flat Poisson deformation of its nilpotent part, and it was demonstrated by Lehn-Namikawa-Sorger that there is an interesting infinite family of nilpotent orbits in symplectic Lie algebras for which the slice is not…
A renormalization group flow of Hamiltonians for two-dimensional classical partition functions is constructed using tensor networks. Similar to tensor network renormalization ([G. Evenbly and G. Vidal, Phys. Rev. Lett. 115, 180405 (2015)],…
In this paper, we continue the study of $T\bar{T}$ deformation in $d=1$ quantum mechanical systems and propose possible analogues of $J\bar{T}$ deformation and deformation by a general linear combination of $T\bar{T}$ and $J\bar{T}$ in…
We investigate several problems in relativity and particle physics where symmetries play a central role; in all cases geometric properties of Lie groups and their quotients are related to physical effects. The first part is concerned with…
Let k be an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, and let W be the ring of infinite Witt vectors over k. Suppose G is a finite group and B is a block of kG of infinite tame representation type. We find all finitely…
By using higher K-theory, we study deformation theory of K-theoretic cycles. As an application, we answer two questions posed by Mark Green and Philip Griffiths: (1). How to define tangent spaces to cycle class groups in general? (2).…
In this article we describe the $\tG\times \tG$-equivariant $K$-ring of $X$, where $\tG$ is a {\it factorial} cover of a connected complex reductive algebraic group $G$, and $X$ is a regular compactification of $G$. Furthermore, using the…
We consider current-current deformations that generalise $T\bar{T}$ ones, and show that they may be also introduced for integrable spin chains. In analogy with the integrable QFT setup, we define the deformation as a modification of the S…
We define and study the $T\bar{T}$ deformation of a random matrix model, showing a consistent definition requires the inclusion of both the perturbative and non-perturbative solutions to the flow equation. The deformed model is well defined…
Here we show that any n-dimensional centrally symmetric convex body K has an n-dimensional perturbation T which is convex and centrally symmetric, such that the isotropic constant of T is universally bounded. T is close to K in the sense…
One way to understand the deformation theory of a tensor category $M$ is through its Davydov-Yetter cohomology $H_{DY}^{\ast}(M)$ which in degree 3 and 4 is known to control respectively first order deformations of the associativity…
Kruskal's theorem states that a sum of product tensors constitutes a unique tensor rank decomposition if the so-called k-ranks of the product tensors are large. In this work, we propose a conjecture in which the k-rank condition of…
As an extended companion paper to [1], we elaborate in detail how the tensor network construction of a p-adic CFT encodes geometric information of a dual geometry even as we deform the CFT away from the fixed point by finding a way to…
It has recently been proposed that Zamoldchikov's $T \bar{T}$ deformation of two-dimensional CFTs describes the holographic theory dual to AdS$_3$ at finite radius. In this note we use the Gauss-Codazzi form of the Einstein equations to…
Consider the functor describing deformations of a representation of the fundamental group of a variety X. This paper is chiefly concerned with establishing an analogue in finite characteristic of a result proved by Goldman and Millson for…
