Model-theoretic aspects of exotic smoothness were studied long ago uncovering unexpected relations to noncommutative spaces and quantum theory. Some of these relations were worked out in detail in later work. An important point in the…
We study basic geometric properties of some group analogue of affine Springer fibers and compare with the classical Lie algebra affine Springer fibers. The main purpose is to formulate a conjecture that relates the number of irreducible…
By an exotic algebraic structure on the affine space ${\bf C}^n$ we mean a smooth affine algebraic variety which is diffeomorphic to ${\bf R}^{2n}$ but not isomorphic to ${\bf C}^n$. This is a survey of the recent developement on the…
This paper is a survey on the topics concerning the Springer correspondence related to the varieties such as the enhanced variety or the exotic symmetric space. We explain in the case of exotic symmetric space of higher level, the complex…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over an algebraically closed field $k$, and let $Fl$ be the affine flag variety of $G$. For every regular semisimple element $\gamma$ of $G(k((t)))$, the affine Springer fiber $Fl_{\gamma}$ can be…
For any finitely presentable group $G$, we show the existence of an isolated complex surface singularity link which admits infinitely many exotic Stein fillings such that the fundamental group of each filling is isomorphic to $G$. We also…
We construct a weak representation of the category of framed affine tangles on a disjoint union of triangulated categories ${\mathcal D}_{2n}$. The categories we use are that of coherent sheaves on Springer fibers over a nilpotent element…
We give a construction of an affine Hecke algebra associated to any Coxeter group acting on an abelian variety by reflections; in the case of an affine Weyl group, the result is an elliptic analogue of the usual double affine Hecke algebra.…
We define and study an exotic t-structure on the bounded derived category of equivariant coherent sheaves on partial resolutions of the nilpotent cone.
We give arguments that exotic smooth structures on compact and noncompact 4-manifolds are essential for some approaches to quantum gravity. We rely on the recently developed model-theoretic approach to exotic smoothness in dimension four.…
Let ${p > 2}$ be an odd prime and ${G = SL_2(\mathbb{F}_p)}$. Denote the subgroup of upper triangular matrices as $B$. Finally, let ${\mathbb{F}}$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic ${p}$. The Green correspondence gives a…
The unconventional superconductivity in Sr$_2$RuO$_4$ continues to defy a unified interpretation. In this paper, we focus on some novel aspects of its superconducting pairing by exploiting the orbital degree of freedom in this material. The…
We introduce the partial reductions and inverse Hamiltonian reductions between affine $\mathcal{W}$-algebras along the closure relations of associated nilpotent orbits in the case of $\mathfrak{sl}_4$, fulfilling all the missing…
We examine affine correspondences of the form g(y)=f(x), for f and g polynomials satisfying deg(g) < deg(f), with the property that every critical point of the correspondence admits at least one finite forward orbit. In the case g(y)=y,…
We prove that a variety of examples of minimal complex surfaces admit exotic diffeomorphisms, providing the first known instances of exotic diffeomorphisms of irreducible 4-manifolds. We also give sufficient conditions for the boundary Dehn…
Bijective correspondences are established between (1) silting objects, (2) simple-minded collections, (3) bounded $t$-structures with length heart and (4) bounded co-$t$-structures. These correspondences are shown to commute with mutations.…
We establish several foundational results regarding the Grothendieck-Springer affine fibration. More precisely, we prove some constructibility results on the affine Grothendieck-Springer sheaf and its coinvariants, enrich it with a group of…
Exotic sheaves are certain complexes of coherent sheaves on the cotangent bundle of the flag variety of a reductive group. They are closely related to perverse-coherent sheaves on the nilpotent cone. This expository article includes the…
We prove an integral version of the derived Springer correspondence for reduced motives. To achieve this result, we extend some results on reduced motives from schemes to quotient stacks with a finite number of orbits. More generally, we…
For a simply-connected simple algebraic group $G$ over $\C$, we exhibit a subvariety of its affine Grassmannian that is closely related to the nilpotent cone of $G$, generalizing a well-known fact about $GL_n$. Using this variety, we…
