In this paper, we discuss elliptic genera of (2,2) and (0,2) supersymmetric Landau-Ginzburg models over nontrivial spaces, i.e., nonlinear sigma models on nontrivial noncompact manifolds with superpotential, generalizing old computations in…
The differential system for minimal Lagrangian surfaces in a $2_{\mathbb{C}}$-dimensional, non-flat, complex space form is an elliptic system defined on the bundle of oriented Lagrangian planes. This is a 6-symmetric space associated with…
We show that the heterotic supersymmetry (Killing spinor equations) and the anomaly cancellation imply the heterotic equations of motion in dimensions five, six, seven, eight if and only if the connection on the tangent bundle is an…
We describe explicit multiplicative excellent families of rational elliptic surfaces with Galois group isomorphic to the Weyl group of the root lattices E_7 or E_8. The Weierstrass coefficients of each family are related by an invertible…
For every normalized newform f in S_2(Gamma_1(N)) with complex multiplication, we study the modular parametrizations of elliptic curves C from the abelian variety A_f. We apply the results obtained when C is Gross's elliptic curve A(p).
We treat the topic of the closures of the nilpotent orbits of the Lie algebras of Exceptional groups through their descriptions as moduli spaces, in terms of Hilbert series and the highest weight generating functions for their…
We characterize decomposable principally polarized abelian varieties of the form $E\times B$, with $E$ an elliptic curve, in two different ways, which are, surprisingly, completely analogous to classical results of curve theory concerning…
We give equations for 13 genus-2 curves over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, with models over $\mathbb{Q}$, whose unpolarized Jacobians are isomorphic to the square of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication by a maximal order. If the…
Using a geometric realization of the $SU(2)_R$ symmetry and a procedure of factorisation of the gauge and $SU(2)_R$ charges, we study the small instanton singularities of the Higgs branch of supersymmetric $U(1)^r$ gauge theories with eight…
In this paper we reconsider, for N=8 supergravity, the problem of gauging the most general electric subgroup. We show that admissible theories are fully characterized by a single algebraic equation to be satisfied by the embedding of the…
Let p\in\{2,3\}, and let k be an imaginary quadratic field in which p decomposes into two distinct primes \mathfrak{p} and \bar{\mathfrak{p}}. Let k_\infty be the unique Z_p-extension of k which is unramified outside of \mathfrak{p}, and…
We show that the topological elliptic genus from the cobordism ring of SU-manifolds to topological Jacobi forms lifts to connective topological Jacobi forms, and that this lift is surjective in homotopy.
The Abel-Jacobi map of the family of elliptic quintics lying on a general cubic threefold is studied. It is proved that it factors through a moduli component of stable rank 2 vector bundles on the cubic threefold with Chern numbers c_1=0,…
We show that six-dimensional backgrounds that are T^2 bundle over a Calabi-Yau two-fold base are consistent smooth solutions of heterotic flux compactifications. We emphasize the importance of the anomaly cancellation condition which can…
We study the constraints on five-dimensional N=1 heterotic M-theory imposed by a consistent anomaly-free coupling of bulk and boundary theory. This requires analyzing the cancellation of triangle gauge anomalies on the four-dimensional…
We describe here a degeneration of the symplectic desingularization of the moduli spaces of topologically trivial $GL(2,\mathbb{C})$ and $SL(2,\mathbb{C})$-Higgs bundles over a hyperelliptic curve, into O'Grady's ten and six dimensional…
A rigidity result for a class of compact generalized quasi-Einstein manifolds with constant scalar curvature is obtained. Moreover, under some geometric assumptions, the rigidity for the noncompact case is also proved. Considering non…
Let p be an odd prime and let E be an elliptic curve defined over a quadratic imaginary field where p splits completely. Suppose E has supersingular reduction at primes above p. We define and study the fine double-signed residual Selmer…
We present the results of a global analysis of a class of models with an extended electroweak gauge group of the form SU(2) x SU(2) x U(1), often denoted as G(221) models, which include as examples the left-right, the lepto-phobic, the…
Given a saturated Fell bundle A over an inverse semigroup S which is semi-abelian in the sense that the fibers over the idempotents of S are commutative, we construct a twisted etale groupoid L such that A can be recovered from L in a…
