Starting with a four-dimensional gauge theory approach to rational, elliptic, and trigonometric solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation, we determine the corresponding quantum group deformations to all orders in $\hbar$ by deducing their RTT…
In this paper we obtain a parametric solution of the hitherto unsolved diophantine equation $(x_1^5+x_2^5)(x_3^5+x_4^5)=(y_1^5+y_2^5)(y_3^5+y_4^5)$. Further, we show, using elliptic curves, that there exist infinitely many parametric…
We compute motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants for crepant resolutions of quotients of affine three-space by even dihedral groups in terms of an affine type D root system, using double dimensional reduction and the representation theory of…
This paper is a continuation of hepth/0507224 where open topological B-models describing D-branes on 2-cycles of local Calabi--Yau geometries with conical singularities were studied. After a short review, the paper expands in particular on…
We use arithmetic and Hodge-theoretic techniques to study pencils of Calabi-Yau varieties realized as highly symmetric hypersurfaces in Grassmannians and their quotients, demonstrating that their geometric properties are distinct from the…
We prove that the Calabi-Yau equation can be solved on the Kodaira-Thurston manifold for all given $T^2$-invariant volume forms. This provides support for Donaldson's conjecture that Yau's theorem has an extension to symplectic…
We prove that there are finitely many families, up to isomorphism in codimension one, of elliptic Calabi-Yau manifolds $Y\rightarrow X$ with a rational section, provided that $\dim(Y)\leq 5$ and $Y$ is not of product-type. As a consequence,…
An asymptotic formula for the number of prime solutions of a general diagonal system of Diophantine equations is established, contingent on the existence of an appropriate mean value bound and on local solvability. In conjunction with the…
By combining the formalism of \cite{RHE} with a discrete approach close to the considerations of \cite{Davie}, we interpret and solve the rough partial differential equation $dy_t=A y_t \, dt+\sum_{i=1}^m f_i(y_t) \, dx^i_t$ ($t\in [0,T]$)…
We show that a fifth order KdV-type equation admits several real as well as complex parity-time reversal or PT-invariant solutions with linear superposition of quadratic functions involving Jacobi elliptic functions of the form ${\rm…
We propose a conceptual framework that leads to an abstract characterization for the exact solvability of Calabi-Yau varieties in terms of abelian varieties with complex multiplication. The abelian manifolds are derived from the cohomology…
For fixed integers $D \geq 0$ and $c \geq 3$, we demonstrate how to use $2$-adic valuation trees of sequences to analyze Diophantine equations of the form $x^2+D=2^cy$ and $x^3+D=2^cy$, for $y$ odd. Further, we show for what values $D \in…
The paper presents a new generalized integer orthogonal transformation which consists of a well known orthogonal transform followed by stretching the basis vectors maintaining the asymptotic behavior of the number of integer solutions for…
A new set of discrete integrable equations, called face-centered quad equations, was recently obtained using new types of interaction-round-a-face solutions of the classical Yang-Baxter equation. These equations satisfy a new formulation of…
We study positive solutions of the equation $-\Delta_g u + \lambda u = \lambda u^q$, with $\lambda >0$, $q>1$ on the round sphere $\mathbb{S}^n$ . We reduce the equation to an ordinary differential equation by considering isoparametric…
We study rational curves of degree two on a smooth sextic 4-fold and their counting invariant defined using Donaldson-Thomas theory of Calabi-Yau 4-folds. By comparing it with the corresponding Gromov-Witten invariant, we verify a…
The Thue-Siegel method is applied to derive an upper bound for the number of solutions to Thue's equation $F(x,y) = 1$ where $F$ is a quartic diagonalizable form with negative discriminant. Computation is used in this argument to handle…
The aim of this note is to treat one distinguished example of a Calabi--Yau variety that appears as a small resolution of a Picard modular variety
Let $A$ be an abelian variety, and $G \subset Aut(A)$ a finite group acting freely in codimension two. We discuss whether the singular quotient $A/G$ admits a resolution that is a Calabi-Yau manifold. While Oguiso constructed two examples…
In this article, we study unitary rational solutions of the associative Yang-Baxter equation with three spectral parameters. We explain how such solutions arise from the geometry of vector bundles on a cuspidal cubic curve. Moreover, we…
