We construct a large class of projective threefolds with one node (aka non-degenerate quadratic singularity) such that their small resolutions are not projective.
We introduce an algorithm that constructs a discrete gradient field on any simplicial complex. We show that, in all situations, the gradient field is maximal possible and, in a number of cases, optimal. We make a thorough analysis of the…
We investigate the singularities of two-ruled hypersurfaces in the Euclidean four-space. By considering the points that minimize the distance between adjacent rulings, we obtain a characterization the striction curve. We introduce the…
We characterise the primitive 2-closed groups $G$ of rank at most four that are not the automorphism group of a graph or digraph and show that if the degree is at least 2402 then there are just two infinite families or $G\leqslant…
A complete classification of two-dimensional algebras over algebraically closed fields is provided
We consider non-supersymmetric four-dimensional closed string theories constructed out of tensor products of N=2 minimal models. Generically such theories have closed string tachyons, but these may be removed either by choosing a…
We study valued fields equipped with an automorphism. We prove that all of them have an extension admitting an equivariant cross-section of the valuation. In residual characteristic zero, and in the presence of such a cross-section, we show…
We construct a covariant description of non-critical superstrings in even dimensions. We construct explicitly supersymmetric hybrid type variables in a linear dilaton background, and study an underlying N=2 twisted superconformal algebra…
We construct connected $2$-arc-transitive covers of complete graphs with non-abelian characteristically simple transformation groups. This solves the existence problem for non-solvable $2$-arc-transitive covers of complete graphs.
We classify fields having finitely many finite non-commutative (not necessarily central) division algebras over them. In the process, we introduce the notion of anti-closure of a field and also make comments on fields having a linear…
Let $\mathbf{K}$ be an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, complete with respect to a non-archimedean absolute value $|\,|$. We establish a Second Main Theorem type estimate for analytic map $f\colon…
Foundations of the theory of vertex algebras are extended to the non-Archimedean setting.
With the aim of finding a framework for describing $(2,0)$ theory, we propose a non-abelian gerbe with surface holonomies that can parallel transport closed strings only.
The aim of this work is the study of symplectic structures on 2-step nilmanifolds. We concentrate in the closeness condition, proving that the existence of a closed 2-form of type II is necessary to get a symplectic structure. In low…
We construct a non-Hamiltonian symplectic circle action on a closed, connected, six-dimensional symplectic manifold with exactly 32 fixed points.
We develop a proposal by Freed to see anomalous field theories as relative field theories, namely field theories taking value in a field theory in one dimension higher, the anomaly field theory. We show that when the anomaly field theory is…
In the present article we prove and discuss several properties of pseudo-Riemannian Bertrand manifolds, and give an overview of the state of the theory together with problems for future work. In particular, we prove that there are no…
Using the recent advances in our understanding of non-perturbative aspects of type II strings we show how non-trivial exact results for $N=2$ quantum field theories can be reduced to T-dualities of string theory. This is done by…
We construct non-isogenous simple ordinary abelian varieties over an algebraic closure of a finite field with isomorphic endomorphism algebras.
We study the theory of massless fields of type II strings arising from the string field theory that uses two string fields, a physical one and an extra one that allows the writing of an action, but whose degrees of freedom ultimately…
