We study 2-cocycle twists, or equivalently Zhang twists, of semigroup algebras over a field k. If the underlying semigroup is affine, that is abelian, cancellative and finitely generated, then Spec k[S] is an affine toric variety over k,…
In this paper we answer two long-standing questions in the classification of $G$-torsors on curves for an almost simple, simply connected algebraic group $G$ over the field of complex numbers. The first question is to give an intrinsic…
Let $T^n$ be the real $n$-torus group. We give a new definition of lens spaces and study the diffeomorphic classification of lens spaces. We show that any $3$-dimensional lens space $L(p; q)$ is $T^2$-equivariantly cobordant to zero. We…
Homomorphisms are defined between the multiplicative group of an etale algebra of dimension 4 and the multiplicative group of a canonically associated etale algebra of degree 6 over an arbitrary field. These homomorphisms are used to relate…
The theory of coverings of the two-dimensional torus is a standard part of algebraic topology and has applications in several topics in string theory, for example, in topological strings. This paper initiates applications of this theory to…
The strata of the moduli spaces of Abelian differentials are non-homogenous spaces carrying natural bi-algebraic structures. Partly inspired by the case of homogenous spaces carrying bi-algebraic structures (such as torii, Abelian varieties…
We prove a flat torus theorem for quadric complexes. In particular, we show that if a non-cyclic free abelian group $G$ acts metrically properly on a quadric complex $X$, then $G \cong \mathbb{Z}^2$ and $X$ contains a $G$-invariant…
Let (G) be a connected compact non-abelian Lie-group and (T) a maximal torus of (G). A torus manifold with (G)-action is defined to be a smooth connected closed oriented manifold of dimension (2\dim T) with an almost effective action of (G)…
Quaternionic tori are defined as quotients of the skew field $\mathbb{H}$ of quaternions by rank-4 lattices. Using slice regular functions, these tori are endowed with natural structures of quaternionic manifolds (in fact quaternionic…
We introduce and analyse a general notion of fundamental group for noncommutative spaces, described by differential graded algebras. For this we consider connections on finitely generated projective bimodules over differential graded…
In this paper we describe a homotopy torsion theory in the category of small symmetric monoidal categories. Thanks to the use of natural isomorphisms as basis for the nullhomotopy structure, this homotopy torsion theory enjoys some…
A connected combinatorial 2-manifold is called degree-regular if each of its vertices have the same degree. A connected combinatorial 2-manifold is called weakly regular if it has a vertex-transitive automorphism group. Clearly, a weakly…
We associate a root system to a finite set in a free abelian group and prove that its irreducible subsystem is of type A, B or D. We apply this general result to a torus manifold, where a torus manifold is a $2n$-dimensional connected…
Given any irreducible smooth complex projective curve $X$, of genus at least $2$, consider the moduli stack of vector bundles on $X$ of fixed rank and determinant. It is proved that the isomorphism class of the stack uniquely determines the…
The group action which defines the moduli problem for the deformation space of flat affine structures on the two-torus is the action of the affine group $\Aff(2)$ on $\bbR^2$. Since this action has non-compact stabiliser $\GL(2,\bbR)$, the…
New features of systems with non-trivial topology such as fractional quantum numbers, inequivalent quantizations, good operators, topological anomalies, etc. are described in the framework of an algebraic quantization procedure on a group.…
We give an explicit and calculable algebraic model for the block of rational G-spectra on full subgroups when G has identity component a 2-torus T, and component group of order 2 acting non-trivially on H_1(T). The example of particular…
Let $X$ be a measure space with a measure-preserving action $(g,x) \mapsto g \cdot x$ of an abelian group $G$. We consider the problem of understanding the structure of measurable tilings $F \odot A = X$ of $X$ by a measurable tile $A…
Let S be a closed oriented surface of genus g > 1, and let T denote its Torelli group. First, given a set E of homotopically nontrivial, pairwise disjoint, pairwise nonisotopic simple closed curves on S, we determine precisely when a…
Periods of parallel exterior forms define natural coordinates on the deformation space of complete affine structures on the two-torus. These coordinates define a differentiable structure on this deformation space, under which it is…
