Some general features of locally supersymmetric theories (N=1 in four dimensions) involving Chern-Simons forms and antisymmetric tensors are sketched out. The relevance of the three-form multiplet both for the description of Chern-Simons…

Let $n$ be any natural number. Let $K$ be any $n$-dimensional knot in $S^{n+2}$. We define a supersymmetric quantum system for $K$ with the following properties. We firstly construct a set of functional spaces (spaces of fermionic \{resp.…

We consider intersecting hypersurfaces in curved spacetime with gravity governed by a class of actions which are topological invariants in lower dimensionality. Along with the Chern-Simons boundary terms there is a sequence of intersection…

Secant defectivity of projective varieties is classically approached via dimensions of linear systems with multiple base points in general position. The latter can be studied via degenerations. We exploit a technique that allows some of the…

In this note we relate about the problem of evaluate the dimension of linear systems through fat points defined on generic $K3$ surfaces.

In the previous paper (arXiv:0804.0701), the authors gave criteria for A_{k+1}-type singularities on wave fronts. Using them, we show in this paper that there is a duality between singular points and inflection points on wave fronts in the…

The correlation functions of supersymmetric gauge theories on a four-manifold X can sometimes be expressed in terms of topological invariants of X. We show how the existence of superconformal fixed points in the gauge theory can provide…

We investigate the Hilbert scheme of points on curves with n-fold singularities, that is curves that look locally around their singular points as the axis in an affine space. We describe the structure and number of its irreducible…

Supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models are obtained from linear sigma models by imposing supersymmetric constraints. If we introduce auxiliary chiral and vector superfields, these constraints can be expressed by D-terms and F-terms depending…

Theories in 5 dimensions with minimal supersymmetry are studied for domain-wall solutions and in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence. The scalar manifold is a product of a very special real manifold and a quaternionic-Kaehler…

We study flows of smooth vector fields $X$ over invariant surfaces $M$ which are levels of rational first integrals. It leads us to study constrained systems, that is, systems with impasses. We identify a subset $\mathcal{I} \subset M$…

Parity is ubiquitous, but not always identified as a simplifying tool for computations. Using parity, having in mind the example of the bosonic/fermionic Fock space, and the framework of Z_2-graded (super) algebra, we clarify relationships…

Suppose M is a closed submanifold in a Euclidean ball of sufficiently large dimension. We give an optimal bound on the normal curvatures, guaranteeing that M is a sphere. The border cases consist of Veronese embeddings of the four…

New bounds on the number of similar or directly similar copies of a pattern within a finite subset of the line or the plane are proved. The number of equilateral triangles whose vertices all lie within an $n$-point subset of the plane is…

We study two decomposition problems in combinatorial geometry. The first part deals with the decomposition of multiple coverings of the plane. We say that a planar set is cover-decomposable if there is a constant m such that any m-fold…

Let $S$ be a smooth projective surface over $\mathbb{C}$ and $S^{[n]}$ be the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points over $S$, for any positive integer $n$. Let ${\bf a}=(n_1,\ldots,n_r)$ and ${\bf b}=(m_1,\ldots,m_s)$ be two distinct partitions of…

We study the crossing symmetry of the ensemble of large-$c$ 2D CFTs defined through 3D gravity. A central observation is that statistical moments of OPE coefficients are not independent; rather, lower and higher moments are strongly…

An automorphism on a complex supermanifold $\mathcal M$ is called unipotent if it reduces to the identity on the associated graded supermanifold $gr(\mathcal M)$. These automorphisms are close to be complementary to those responsible for…

Superconformal tensor calculus on an orbifold S^1/Z_2 is given in five-dimensional (5D) spacetime. The four-dimensional superconformal Weyl multiplet and various matter multiplets are induced on the boundary planes from the 5D…

We study the set of intersection sizes of a k-dimensional affine subspace and a point set of size m \in [0, 2^n] of the n-dimensional binary affine space AG(n,2). Following the theme of Erd\H{o}s, F\"uredi, Rothschild and T. S\'os, we…
