Given a double vector bundle $D\to M$, we define a bigraded `Weil algebra' $\mathcal{W}(D)$, which `realizes' the algebra of smooth functions on the supermanifold $D[1,1]$. We describe in detail the relations between the Weil algebras of…
In this letter,we present our conjecture on the connection between the Kontsevich--Witten and the Hurwitz tau-functions. The conjectural formula connects these two tau-functions by means of the $GL(\infty)$ group element. An important…
In several applications, such as \tsc{weno} interpolation and reconstruction [Shu C.W.: SIAM Rev. 51 (2009) 82--126], we are interested in the analytical expression of the weight-functions which allow the representation of the approximating…
We probe the existence of supersymmetric vacua of the type IIB orientifold of the elliptic Calabi-Yau space P_{11169}[18] where generically two complex structure moduli z_i, the dilaton tau and the two K\"ahler moduli T_i are stabilized by…
The Bergman tau functions are applied to the study of the Picard group of moduli spaces of quadratic differentials with at most $n$ simple poles on genus $g$ complex algebraic curves. This generalizes our previous results on moduli spaces…
We show that the completed volumes introduced by Duriev-Goujard-Yakovlev as an approximation to compute Masur-Veech volumes via Witten-Kontsevich's combinatorial classes agrees with the top intersection of the tautological class on the…
We show that integral representation of universal volume function of compact simple Lie groups gives rise to six analytic functions on $CP^2$, which transform as two triplets under group of permutations of Vogel's projective parameters.…
This paper studies spaces of generalized theta functions for odd orthogonal bundles with nontrivial Stiefel-Whitney class and the associated space of twisted spin bundles. In particular, we prove a Verlinde type formula and a dimension…
This paper is devoted to demonstrating manifest superfluid properties of the Minkowskian Higgs model with vacuum BPS monopole solutions at assuming the "continuous" $\sim S^2$ vacuum geometry in that model. It will be also argued that point…
We develop a formulation of perturbation theory on spherically symmetric backgrounds based on self-dual curvature equations combined with spherical harmonic expansions. The resulting framework unifies the Regge-Wheeler-Zerilli (RWZ) and…
The addition formulae for KP $\tau$-functions, when evaluated at lattice points in the KP flow group orbits in the infinite dimensional Sato-Segal-Wilson Grassmannian, give infinite parametric families of solutions to discretizations of the…
In this paper we study Weil-Petersson volumes of the moduli spaces of conical hyperbolic surfaces. The moduli spaces are parametrised by their cone angles which naturally live inside Hassett's space of stability conditions on nodal curves.…
We consider a special class of solutions of the BKP hierarchy which we call $\tau$-functions of hypergeometric type. These are series in Schur $Q$-functions over partitions, with coefficients parameterised by a function of one variable…
The KP and 2D Toda tau-functions of hypergeometric type that serve as generating functions for weighted single and double Hurwitz numbers are related to the topological recursion programme. A graphical representation of such weighted…
We establish a precise correspondence between the giant graviton expansion of the superconformal index of field theories in $D\leq 4$, and the master volume formalism of Gauntlett, Martelli and Sparks (GMS) which determines the near horizon…
In the present paper, we are concerned with the tau function and its connection with the Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) theory for the massive Thirring (MT) model. First, we bilinearize the massive Thirring model under both the vanishing and…
We prove that structure constants related to Hecke algebras at roots of unity are special cases of k-Littlewood-Richardson coefficients associated to a product of k-Schur functions. As a consequence, both the 3-point Gromov-Witten…
The relations in the tautological ring of the moduli space M_g of nonsingular curves conjectured by Faber-Zagier in 2000 and extended to the moduli space of stable pointed curves by Pixton in 2012 are based upon two hypergeometric series A…
Among solutions of n-Gelfand-Dikii's hierarchy there exists a remarkable solution W, which satisfies the string equation. We call it Witten's solution because according to the Witten conjecture the function F(x_1, x_2, x_3,...) =…
We prove a new recursive relation between the correlators $< \tau_{d_1}\gamma_1...\tau_{d_n}\gamma_n >_{g,\beta}$, which together with known relations allows one to express all of them through the full system of Gromov-Witten invariants in…
