We prove that when $d>2$, a $d$-dimensional symplectic quotient at the zero level of a unitary circle representation $V$ such that $V^{\Sp^1}=\{0\}$ cannot be $\Z$-graded regularly symplectomorphic to the quotient of a unitary…

In [arXiv:2107.01437], the authors studied the mean-square of certain sums of the divisor function $d_k(f)$ over the function field $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$ in the limit as $q \to \infty$ and related these sums to integrals over the ensemble of…

It is shown that two vectors with coordinates in the finite $q$-element field of characteristic $p$ belong to the same orbit under the natural action of the symmetric group if each of the elementary symmetric polynomials of degree…

For any (real) algebraic variety $X$ in a Euclidean space $V$ endowed with a nondegenerate quadratic form $q$, we introduce a polynomial $\mathrm{EDpoly}_{X,u}(t^2)$ which, for any $u\in V$, has among its roots the distance from $u$ to $X$.…

We consider a holomorphic 1-form $\omega$ with an isolated zero on an isolated complete intersection singularity $(V,0)$. We construct quadratic forms on an algebra of functions and on a module of differential forms associated to the pair…

Given a finite subset S in F_p^d, let a(S) be the number of distinct r-tuples (x_1,...,x_r) in S such that x_1+...+x_r = 0. We consider the "moments" F(m,n) = sum_|S|=n a(S)^m. Specifically, we present an explicit formula for F(m,n) as a…

Given a linear action of a group $G$ on a $K$-vector space $V$, we consider the invariant ring $K[V \oplus V^*]^G$, where $V^*$ is the dual space. We are particularly interested in the case where $V =\gfq^n$ and $G$ is the group $U_n$ of…

Schubert coefficients are nonnegative integers $c^w_{u,v}$ that arise in Algebraic Geometry and play a central role in Algebraic Combinatorics. It is a major open problem whether they have a combinatorial interpretation, i.e, whether…

We prove a spectral summation formula for the product of four Fourier coefficients of half-integral weight cusp forms in Kohnen's subspace. The other side of the formula involves certain generalized class numbers of pairs of quadratic forms…

A polynomial transformation of the real plane $\Bbb R^2$ is a mapping $\Bbb R^2\to\Bbb R^2$ given by two polynomials of two variables. Such a transformation is called quadratic if the degrees of its polynomials are not greater than two. In…

We study real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$ such that, for a given rational integer $m$, all $m$-multiples of totally positive integers are sums of squares. We prove quite sharp necessary and sufficient conditions for this to…

In this article we study the involutions of $\mathrm{O}(V,\mathrm{q})$, an orthogonal group for a vector space $V$ with quadratic form $\mathrm{q}$ over a field of characteristic 2. The classification proceeds by discussing conjugacy…

For suitable pairs of diagonal quadratic forms in 8 variables we use the circle method to investigate the density of simultaneous integer solutions and relate this to the problem of estimating linear correlations among sums of two squares.

Counting integral binary quadratic forms with certain restrictions is a classical problem. In this paper, we count binary quadratic forms of fixed discriminant given restrictions on the size of their coefficients. We accomplish this by…

The relativistic two-particle quantum mixtures are studied from the topological point of view. The mixture field variables can be transformed in such a way that a kinematical decoupling of both particle degrees of freedom takes place with a…

We consider classes of diffeomorphisms of Euclidean space with partial asymptotic expansions at infinity; the remainder term lies in a weighted Sobolev space whose properties at infinity fit with the desired application. We show that two…

Let X be a compact connected Riemann surface. Fix a positive integer r and two nonnegative integers d_p and d_z. Consider all pairs of the form (F, f), where F is a holomorphic vector bundle on X of rank r and degree d_z-d_p, and f :…

Symplectic resolutions are an exciting new frontier of research in representation theory. One of the most fascinating aspects of this study is symplectic duality: the observation that these resolutions come in pairs with matching…

In the symplectic category there is a `connect sum' operation that glues symplectic manifolds by identifying neighborhoods of embedded codimension two submanifolds. This paper establishes a formula for the Gromov-Witten invariants of a…

This is the second in a series of three papers dealing with sums of squares and hypoellipticity in the infinitely degenerate regime. We give sharp conditions on the entries of a positive semidefinite NxN matrix function F on n-dimensional…
