We investigate the relationship between conformal and spin structure on lorentzian manifolds and see how their compatibility influences the formulation of rigid supersymmetric field theories. In dimensions three, four, six and ten, we show…
We constructed all possible kinematically allowed three-point interactions of two massless Dirac spinors with massive higher-spin bosons. In any $D$ spacetime, the interactions have been constructed using the projections of the higher spin…
The goal of this work is to give new quantitative results about the distribution of semi-arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces in the moduli space of closed hyperbolic surfaces. We show that two coverings of genus $g$ of a fixed arithmetic surface…
Dirac semimetals, with their protected Dirac points, present an ideal platform for realizing intrinsic topological superconductivity. In this work, we investigate superconductivity in a two-dimensional, square-lattice nonsymmorphic Dirac…
For a compact spinc manifold $X$ with boundary $b_1(\partial X)=0$, we consider moduli spaces of solutions to the Seiberg-Witten equations in a generalized double Coulomb slice in $L^2_1$ (i.e., $W^{1,2}$) Sobolev regularity. We prove they…
We derive upper eigenvalue bounds for the Dirac operator of a closed hypersurface in a manifold with Killing spinors such as Euclidean space, spheres or hyperbolic space. The bounds involve the Willmore functional. Relations with the…
Unconventional superconductors have Cooper pairs with lower symmetries than in conventional superconductors. In most unconventional superconductors, the additional symmetry breaking occurs in relation to typical ingredients such as strongly…
We study a novel type of braid groups on a closed orientable surface $\Sigma$. These are fundamental groups of certain manifolds that are hybrids between symmetric products and configuration spaces of points on $\Sigma$; a class of examples…
We study the dynamical spin susceptibility $\chi ({\bf q},\omega)$ for spin-triplet superconductivity. We show that a large peak at $\omega = 2 \Delta$ appears in $\textrm{Im} \chi_{zz}({\mathbf{Q}}, \omega)$, where $z$ is the direction of…
The conifold singularities in the type-II string are considered as the points of phase transition. In some cases, these singularities can be understood in the framework of the conventional fields theores as the points of enhanced gauge…
We study the imprint of higher spin supermultiplets on cosmological correlators, namely the non-Gaussianity of the cosmic microwave background. Supersymmetry is used as a guide to introduce the contribution of fermionic higher spin…
We study the possibility of supersymmetry (SUSY) in quantum mechanics in one dimension under the presence of a point singularity. The system considered is the free particle on a line R or on the interval [-l, l] where the point singularity…
The simplices and the complexes arsing form the grading of the fundamental (desymmetrized) domain of arithmetical groups and non-arithmetical groups, as well as their extended (symmetrized) ones are described also for oriented manifolds in…
Let M be a closed oriented 4-manifold, with Riemannian metric g, and a spin^C structure induced by an almost-complex structure \omega. Each connection A on the determinant line bundle induces a unique connection \nabla^A, and Dirac operator…
In this note, we extend work of Farkas and Rim\'anyi on applying quadric rank loci to finding divisors of small slope on the moduli space of curves by instead considering all divisorial conditions on the hypersurfaces of a fixed degree…
We construct a Hamiltonian H whose discrete spectrum contains, in a certain limit, the Riemann zeros. H is derived from the action of a massless Dirac fermion living in a domain of Rindler spacetime, in 1+1 dimensions, that has a boundary…
We have obtained the supersymmetric extension of spectral triple which specify a noncommutative geometry(NCG). We assume that the functional space H constitutes of wave functions of matter fields and their superpartners included in the…
We investigate the relationship between two interpretations of equivariant Riemann-Roch defects of complex spaces with conic singularities; as (i) equivariant $\eta_{T}$ and $\xi_{T}$ invariants, and as (ii) supertraces over local…
We derive the spin texture of a weak topological insulator via a supersymmetric approach that includes the roles of the bulk gap edge states and surface band bending. We find the spin texture can take one of four forms: (i) helical, (ii)…
Causal fermion systems and Riemannian fermion systems are proposed as a framework for describing non-smooth geometries. In particular, this framework provides a setting for spinors on singular spaces. The underlying topological structures…
