We study the low energy behaviour of N=(2,2) supersymmetric gauge theories in 1+1 dimensions, with orthogonal and symplectic gauge groups and matters in the fundamental representation. We observe supersymmetry breaking in super-Yang-Mills…

This is a write-up for the plenary ICM talk, 2026. The goal of this paper is to propose a set of conjectures whose aim is to answer the basic question of the Langlands program (over function fields): how to describe the space of automorphic…

We study a class of weakly coupled Hamilton-Jacobi systems with a specific aim to perform a qualitative analysis in the spirit of weak KAM theory. Our main achievement is the definition of a family of related action functionals containing…

We introduce a notion of deformations of quasi-Hamiltonian $G$-spaces to Hamiltonian $G$-spaces and provide several examples. In particular, we show that the double $G \times G$ of a Lie group, viewed as a quasi-Hamiltonian $G \times…

We extend Wallman's classic duality from lattice bases to semilattice subbases and from compact to locally closed compact spaces. Moreover, we make this duality functorial via appropriate relational morphisms.

Physical systems with symmetry arise abundantly in applications, and are endowed with interesting mathematical structures. The present paper focusses on linear reciprocal and input-output Hamiltonian systems. Their characterization is…

The quantum mechanical transition between a free particle Lagrangian and the Klein Gordon field description of a free particle (particle wave duality) is conjectured to extend to an analogous construction of relativistically invariant wave…

In 1967, Langlands conjectured a natural correspondence between automorphic representations and Galois representations, over number fields as well as over function fields. In 1983, Drinfeld discovered a geometric analog of the Langlands…

We first demonstrate how duality for the fibres of the so-called Hitchin fibration works for the Langlands dual groups Sp(2m) and SO(2m+1). We then show that duality for G2 is implemented by an involution on the base space which takes one…

In recent work we began a study of the correlators of multiple light-like Wilson loops in $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory, focussing primarily on tree-level calculations and, beyond tree-level, to the Abelian theory. Here we…

We show that it is in principle possible to construct dualities between commutative and non-commutative theories in a systematic way. This construction exploits a generalization of the exact renormalization group equation (ERG). We apply…

We develop basic homological machinery for Z-algebras in order to prove a version of local duality for Ext-finite connected Z-algebras. As an application, we compare two notions of regularity for such algebras.

We discuss non-abelian $SU(N_c)$ gauge theory coupled to an adjoint chiral superfield $X$, and a number of fundamental chiral superfields $Q^i$. Using duality, we show that turning on a superpotential $W(X)=\Tr\sum_{l=1}^k g_l X^{l+1}$…

Let $G$ be a complex reductive group. For a smooth affine spherical $G$-variety $X$, assume that the unramified relative local Langlands conjecture of Ben-Zvi-Sakellaridis-Venkatesh for $X$ holds, the loop space $LX$ is an $L^+G$--placid…

U(1) gauge theory on ${\bf R}^4$ is known to possess an electric-magnetic duality symmetry that inverts the coupling constant and extends to an action of $SL(2,{\bf Z})$. In this paper, the duality is studied on a general four-manifold and…
