Let $\mathcal{R}$ be a free Lie conformal algebra of rank $2$ with $\mathbb{C}[\partial]$-basis $\{L,I\}$ and relations \begin{eqnarray*} \left[L_{\lambda} L\right]=(\partial+2 \lambda) (L+I),\ \left[L_{\lambda} I\right]=(\partial+\lambda)…
We prove that the Lie algebra $\mathfrak{sl}_n(\textbf{F}_q)$ of traceless matrices over a finite field of characteristic $p$ can be generated by $2$ elements with exceptions when $(n, p)$ is $(3, 3)$ or $(4,2)$. In the latter cases, we…
Given a finite-dimensional module, $V$, for a finite-dimensional, complex, semi-simple Lie algebra $\lie g$ and a positive integer $m$, we construct a family of graded modules for the current algebra $\lie g[t]$ indexed by simple $\CC\lie…

Let L >= 3. Using the moduli interpretation, we define certain elliptic modular forms of level Gamma(L) over any field k where 6L is invertible and k contains the Lth roots of unity. These forms generate a graded algebra R_L, which, over C,…
We consider mod $p$ Hilbert modular forms for a totally real field $F$, viewed as sections of automorphic line bundles on Hilbert modular varieties in prime characteristic $p$. For a Hecke eigenform of arbitrary weight, we prove the…

We construct moduli stacks of stable sheaves for surfaces fibered over marked nodal curves by using expanded degenerations. These moduli stacks carry a virtual class and therefore give rise to enumerative invariants. In the case of a…
Let X be a geometrically irreducible smooth projective curve over a field k. We describe the algebra of endomorphisms of indecomposable unstable vector bundles over X of rank 2 and degree d. Fixing some numerical invariants, namely the…
The Ap\'ery numbers of Fano varieties are asymptotic invariants of their quantum differential equations. In this paper, we initiate a program to exhibit these invariants as (mirror to) limiting extension classes of higher cycles on the…
We prove that a complete family of linearly non-degenerate rational curves of degree $e > 2$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ has at most $n-1$ moduli. For $e = 2$ we prove that such a family has at most $n$ moduli. It is unknown whether or not this is…

We find decomposition series of length at most two for modular representations in positive characteristic of mapping class groups of surfaces induced by an integral version of the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev SO(3)-TQFT at the p-th root of…
We give a general construction for finite dimensional representations of $U_q(\hat{\G})$ where $\hat{\G}$ is a non-twisted affine Kac-Moody algebra with no derivation and zero central charge. At $q=1$ this is trivial because…
In this survey, we shall be concerned with the category of finite-dimensional representations of the untwisted quantum affine algebras when the quantum parameter q is not a root of unity. We review the foundational results of the subject,…
Let $F/\mathbb{Q}_p$ be a finite extension. We explore the universal supersingular mod $p$ representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2(F)$ through computing a basis of their invariant space under the pro-$p$ Iwahori subgroup. This generalizes works…
In this paper we consider weakly holomorphic modular forms (i.e. those meromorphic modular forms for which poles only possibly occur at the cusps) of weight $2-k\in 2\Z$ for the full modular group $\SL_2(\Z)$. The space has a distinguished…
We analyze the boundaries of the moduli spaces of compactifications of the heterotic string on $T^d$, making particular emphasis on $d=2$ and its F-theory dual. We compute the OPE algebras as we approach all the infinite distance limits…
We give a realization of the level zero fundamental weight representation $W(\varpi_k)$ of the quantum affine algebra $U_q'(\mf{g})$, when $\mf{g}$ has a maximal parabolic subalgebra of type $C_n$. We define a semisimple $U'_q({\mf…
