We extend the dimension and strong linearity results of generic vanishing theory to bundles of holomorphic forms and rank one local systems, and more generally to certain coherent sheaves of Hodge-theoretic origin associated to irregular…
We discuss Jacobi forms that are invariant under the action of the Weyl group of type E_n (n=6,7,8). For n=6,7 we explicitly construct a full set of generators of the algebra of E_n weak Jacobi forms. We first construct n+1 independent E_n…
In this paper we define a Grassmann odd analogue of Jacobi structure on a supermanifold. The basic properties are explored. The construction of odd Jacobi manifolds is then used to reexamine the notion of a Jacobi algebroid. It is shown…
In this paper, we study the reducibility of degenerate principal series of the simple, simply-connected exceptional group of type $E_8$. Furthermore, we calculate the maximal semi-simple subrepresentation and quotient of these…
It has been shown that the Alvarez-Gaum$\mathrm{\acute{e}}$-Witten miraculous anomaly cancellation formula in type IIB superstring theory and its various generalizations can be derived from modularity of certain characteristic forms. In…
It is pointed out that there are infinite classes of cases based on gauge groups of the form SU(p)xSU(q)xU(1) in which gauge anomalies cancel non-trivially for small sets of fermion multiplets that include symmetric tensor representations.…
We use the holomorphic anomaly equation to solve the gravitational corrections to Seiberg-Witten theory and a two-cut matrix model, which is related by the Dijkgraaf-Vafa conjecture to the topological B-model on a local Calabi-Yau manifold.…
We investigate the elliptic analogs of multi-indexed polylogarithms that appear in the theory of the fundamental group of the projective line minus three points as sections of a universal nilpotent bundle with regular singular connection.…
We study the reduction properties of low genus curves whose Jacobian has complex multiplication. In the elliptic curve case, we classify the possible Kodaira types of reduction that can occur. Moreover, we investigate the possible Namikawa…
We discuss the basic properties of various versions of two variable elliptic genus with special attention to the equivariant elliptic genus. The main applications are to the elliptic genera attached to non-compact GITs, including the…
We compute the elliptic genera of general two-dimensional N=(2,2) and N=(0,2) gauge theories. We find that the elliptic genus is given by the sum of Jeffrey-Kirwan residues of a meromorphic form, representing the one-loop determinant of…
In the context of N=8 supergravity we consider BPS black-holes that preserve 1/8 supersymmetry. It was shown in a previous paper that, modulo U-duality transformations of E_{7(7)} the most general solution of this type can be reduced to a…
This paper gives a conjectural characterization of those elliptic curves over the field of complex numbers which "should" be covered by standard modular curves. The elliptic curves in question all have algebraic j-invariant, so they can be…
To every elliptic Calabi-Yau threefold with a section $X$ there can be associated a Lie group $G$ and a representation $\rho$ of that group. The group is determined from the Weierstrass model, which has singularities that are generically…
We consider tensor products of N=2 minimal models and non-compact conformal field theories with N=2 superconformal symmetry, and their orbifolds. The elliptic genera of these models give rise to a large and interesting class of real Jacobi…
In this work we study the cancellation of non-perturbative anomalies of gravitational theories with gauge group $\mathbb{Z}_k$ in six dimensions. These subtle anomalies require a classification of deformation classes of manifolds with…
We complete the program indicated by the Ansatz of D'Hoker and Phong in genus ~4 by proving the uniqueness of the restriction to Jacobians of the weight 8 Siegel cusp forms satisfying the Anstaz. We prove $\dim [\Gamma_4(1,2),8]_0=2$ and…
The weak Jacobi forms of integral weight and integral index associated to an even positive definite lattice form a bigraded algebra. In this paper we prove a criterion for this type of algebra being free. As an application, we give an…
Given an elliptic curve with supersingular reduction at an odd prime p, Iovita and Pollack have generalised results of Kobayashi to define even and odd Coleman maps at p over Lubin-Tate extensions given by a formal group of height 1. We…
In this short letter we conclude our program, started in [J. Math. Phys. 46 (2005) 083512], of building up explicit generalized Euler angle parameterizations for all exceptional compact Lie groups. In this last step we solve the problem for…
