The main aim of this paper is to develop general algebraic and cohomological tools for the study of the local geometry of moduli and parameter spaces in Algebraic Geometry, culminating in the so-called Hitchin (or KZ) (projective)…
Modular forms appear in many facets of mathematics, and have played important roles in geometry, mathematical physics, number theory, representation theory, topology, and other areas. Around 1994, motivated by technical issues in homotopy…
Persistence modules are a central algebraic object arising in topological data analysis. The notion of interleaving provides a natural way to measure distances between persistence modules. We consider various classes of persistence modules,…
We introduce the tautological rings of moduli stacks of twisted curves and establish some basic properties.
These are expanded notes from some talks given during the fall 2002, about ``homotopical algebraic geometry'' (HAG) with special emphasis on its applications to ``derived algebraic geometry'' (DAG) and ``derived deformation theory''. We use…
We introduce and analyze a new geometric structure on topological surfaces generalizing the complex structure. To define this so called higher complex structure we use the punctual Hilbert scheme of the plane. The moduli space of higher…

This is a note in which we first review symmetries of moduli spaces of stable meromorphic connections on trivial vector bundles over the Riemann sphere, and next discuss symmetries of their integrable deformations as an application. In the…
We develop a new method for analyzing moduli problems related to the stack of pure coherent sheaves on a polarized family of projective schemes. It is an infinite-dimensional analogue of geometric invariant theory. We apply this to two…
In this paper, we explore the virtual technique that is very useful in studying moduli problem from differential geometric point of view. We introduce a class of new objects "virtual manifolds/orbifolds", on which we develop the integration…
It is well known that knots are countable in ordinary knot theory. Recently, knots {\it with intersections} have raised a certain interest, and have been found to have physical applications. We point out that such knots --equivalence…
We present a novel notion of stable objects in the derived category of coherent sheaves on a smooth projective variety. As one application we compactify a moduli space of stable bundles using genuine complexes.
We describe the moduli spaces of theories with 32 or 16 supercharges, from several points of view. Included is a review of backgrounds with D-branes (including type I' vacua and F-theory), a discussion of holonomy of Riemannian metrics, and…
In order to provide a good categorical setting to the many different spaces of fields arising in the description of physical theories, a pedagogical introduction to the categorical notion of smooth sets is provided and some simple…
A number theoretic approach to string compactification is developed for Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in arbitrary dimensions. The motivic strategy involved is illustrated by showing that the Hecke eigenforms derived from Galois group orbits of…
Due to recent advances - compute, data, models - the role of learning in autonomous systems has expanded significantly, rendering new applications possible for the first time. While some of the most significant benefits are obtained in the…
Degeneration of modules is usually defined geometrically, but due to results of Zwara and Riedtmann we can also define it in terms of exact sequences. This definition also works over fields that are not algebraically closed. Let $k$ be a…
We explore the integration of representations from a Lie algebra to its algebraic group in positive characteristic. An integrable module is stable under the twists by group elements. Our aim is to investigate cohomological obstructions for…
We demonstrate that a class of modulation spaces are examples of a smooth structure on the noncommutative 2-torus in the sense of recent developments in KK-theory. In addition, we prove that this class of modulation spaces can be…
