Groups of structure $2.O_8^+(2)$ have an irreducible representation of degree $8$ which can be realized over $\mathbb{Z}$ and any prime field $\mathbb{F}_p$. This representation extends to a group of structure $2.O_8^+(2).2$. Any subgroup…
We study basic geometric properties of Kottwitz-Viehmann varieties, which are certain generalizations of affine Springer fibers that encode orbital integrals of spherical Hecke functions. Based on previous work of A. Bouthier and the…
Let $H \subset {\mathbb P}^n$ be a real-analytic subvariety of codimension one induced by a real-analytic curve in the Grassmannian $G(n+1,n)$. Assuming $H$ has a global defining function, we prove $H$ is Levi-flat, the closure of its…
It is one of the wonderful ``coincidences'' of the theory of finite groups that the simple group G of order 25920 arises as both a symplectic group in characteristic 3 and a unitary group in characteristic 2. These two realizations of G…
This work pursues a circle of Lie-theoretic ideas involving Hessenberg varieties, Poisson geometry, and wonderful compactifications. In more detail, one may associate a symplectic Hamiltonian $G$-variety…
We produce combinatorial formulas for invariants of smooth embeddings of $(2\ell-1)$-spheres into $\mathbb{R}^{3\ell}$ for $\ell\geq 2$. Furthermore, we obtain such a formula for the Haefliger invariant, which classifies smooth knots…
Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve of genus 2 over a number field $k$ with a rational point. We prove that the index and exponent coincide for elements in the 2-torsion of $\Sha(Br(C))$. In the appendix, an isomorphism of the moduli space…
Invariant notions of a class of Segre varieties $\Segrem(2)$ of PG(2^m - 1, 2) that are direct products of $m$ copies of PG(1, 2), $m$ being any positive integer, are established and studied. We first demonstrate that there exists a…
We establish a coordinate-invariant Heisenberg-type lower bound for quantum states strictly localized in geodesic balls of radius $r_g$ on horizon-regular spacelike slices of static, spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat (AF)…
Dale Peterson has discovered a surprising result that the quantum cohomology ring of the flag variety $\mbox{GL}_n(\mathbb{C})/B$ is isomorphic to the coordinate ring of the intersection of the Peterson variety $\mbox{Pet}_n$ and the…
I give a brief overview of the mathematical theory of Noether symmetries of multifield cosmological models, which decompose naturally into visible and Hessian (a.k.a. 'hidden') symmetries. While visible symmetries correspond to those…
The moduli space $\cM_g$ of nonsingular projective curves of genus $g$ is compactified into the moduli $\bcM_g$ of Deligne-Mumford stable curves of genus $g$. We compactify in a similar way the moduli space of abelian varieties by adding…
HyperK\"ahler spaces, including manifolds, orbifolds and conical singularities play an important role in superstring/$M$-theory and gauge theories as well as in differential and algebraic geometry. In this paper we provide hundreds of new…
We study the behaviour on some nodal hyperplanes of the isomorphism, described in a paper of 2019 by Boissi\`ere, Camere and Sarti, between the moduli space of smooth cubic threefolds and the moduli space of hyperk\"ahler fourfolds of…
We study parabolic G-Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface with fixed punctures, when G is a real reductive Lie group, and establish a correspondence between these objects and representations of the fundamental group of the punctured…
In this paper we study bielliptic curves of genus 3 defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ and the intersection of the moduli space $\M_3^b$ of such curves with the hyperelliptic moduli $\H_3$. Such intersection $\S$ is an…
We define the higher-order Alexander modules $A_{n,i}(\mathcal{U})$ and higher-order degrees $\delta_{n,i}(\mathcal{U})$ which are invariants of a complex hypersurface complement $\mathcal{U}$. These invariants come from the module…
We study the geometry of the moduli space of planes in a general cubic 5-fold and its deformation. We show that this moduli space is a smooth projective surface whose canonical bundle is ample. We also show that the variation of degree 1…
We use classical invariant theory to construct invariants of complex graded Gorenstein algebras of finite vector space dimension. As a consequence, we obtain a way of extracting certain numerical invariants of quasi-homogeneous isolated…
A computation shows that there are 77 (up to scalar shifts) possible pairs of integer coefficient polynomials of degree five, having roots of unity as their roots, and satisfying the conditions of Beukers and Heckman [1], so that the…
