We study the theta map which assigns to a real quadratic form its theta series. We introduce two invariants reflecting whether the differential of the theta map vanishes or is degenerate. We provide examples of lattices where this…
Quadratic Gromov--Witten invariants allow one to obtain an arithmetically meaningful count of curves satisfying constraints over a field $k$ without assuming that $k$ is the field of complex or real numbers. This paper studies the behavior…

We discuss some aspects of the deformed W-algebras W_{q,t}[g]. In particular, we derive an explicit formula for the Kac determinant, and discuss the center when t^2 is a primitive k-th root of unity. The relation of the structure of…
We generalize the worldline variational approach to field theory by introducing a trial action which allows for anisotropic terms to be induced by external 4-momenta of Green's functions. By solving the ensuing variational equations…
Let $F$ be the function field of a curve over a complete discretely valued field. Let $\ell$ be a prime not equal to the characteristic of the residue field. Given a finite subgroup $B$ in the $\ell$ torsion part of the Brauer group…
Motivated by the inverse Littlewood-Offord problem for linear forms, we study the concentration of quadratic forms. We show that if this form concentrates on a small ball with high probability, then the coefficients can be approximated by a…

There is a classical geometric construction which uses a binary quadratic form to define an involution on the space of binary d-ics. We give a complete characterization of a general class of such involutions which are definable using…
Kashiwara defined the Maslov index (associated to a collection of Lagrangian subspaces of a symplectic vector space over a field F) as a class in the Witt group W(F) of quadratic forms. We construct a canonical quadratic vector space in…

In the present paper, we define the concept of a \( q \)-cosymplectic manifold, on which we study the Hamiltonian, gradient, local gradient, and \( q \)-evolution vector fields. Several Liouville--Arnold-type theorems and a \( q…
We investigate the Hasse principles for isotropy and isometry of quadratic forms over finitely generated field extensions with respect to various sets of discrete valuations. Over purely transcendental field extensions of fields that…
The isotropy of multiples of Pfister forms is studied. In particular, an improved lower bound on the values of their first Witt indices is obtained. A number of corollaries of this result are outlined. An investigation of generic Pfister…
We study the theta decomposition of Jacobi forms of nonintegral lattice index for a representation that arises in the theory of Weil representations associated to even lattices, and suggest possible applications.
We present a new algorithm for refining a real interval containing a single real root: the new method combines characteristics of the classical Bisection algorithm and Newton's Iteration. Our method exhibits quadratic convergence when…
Relying on recent advances in the theory of motives we develope a general formalism for derived categories of motives with Q-coefficients on perfect (ind-)schemes. As an application we give a motivic refinement of Zhu's geometric Satake…
Application of the so-called refined algebraic quantization scheme for constrained systems to the relativistic particle provides an inner product that defines a unique Fock representation for a scalar field in curved space-time. The…

We study the Witten--Reshetikhin--Turaev SU(2) invariant for the Seifert manifold with 4-singular fibers. We define the Eichler integrals of the modular forms with half-integral weight, and we show that the invariant is rewritten as a sum…
