In her PhD thesis Milin developed an equivariant version of the contact homology groups constructed by Eliashberg, Kim and Polterovich and used it to prove an equivariant contact non-squeezing theorem. In this article we re-obtain the same…
This manuscript explores many convolution (restricted summation) type sequences via certain types of matrix based factorizations that can be used to express their generating functions. The last primary (non-appendix) section of the thesis…
We prove that graded $k$-Schur functions are $G$-equivariant Euler characteristics of vector bundles on the flag variety, settling a conjecture of Chen-Haiman. We expose a new miraculous shift invariance property of the graded $k$-Schur…
To any algebraic variety X and and closed 2-form \omega on X, we associate the "symplectic action functional" T(\omega) which is a function on the formal loop space LX introduced by the authors in math.AG/0107143. The correspondence \omega…
In this paper, we determine modularity properties of the generating function of $s_k(n)$ which sums $k$-th power of reciprocals of parts throughout all of the partitions of $n$ into distinct parts. In particular, we show that the generating…
We show that any symplectic singularity lying on a smoothable projective symplectic variety locally admits a good action of $(\mathbb{C}^*)^r$, which is canonical. Under mild assumptions, we actually prove such singularity germ is the cone…
For $k$ a field, we construct a power structure on the Grothendieck--Witt ring of $k$ which has the potential to be compatible with symmetric powers of varieties and the motivic Euler characteristic. We then show this power structure is…
We give a generalization of Gabriel's Theorem on coherent sheaves to the case of coherent twisted sheaves on a smooth variety X over a field k. We show that the category Coh(X,\alpha) determines the scheme structure of X for \alpha in the…
For an arbitrary valued field $(K,v)$ and a given extension $v(K^*)\hookrightarrow\Lambda$ of ordered groups, we analyze the structure of the tree formed by all $\Lambda$-valued extensions of $v$ to the polynomial ring $K[x]$. As an…
We present generating functions for extensions of multiplicative invariants of wreath symmetric products of orbifolds presented as the quotient by the locally free action of a compact, connected Lie group in terms of orbifold sector…
We compute the quadratic Euler characteristic of the symmetric powers of a smooth, projective curve over any field $k$ that is not of characteristic two, using the Motivic Gauss-Bonnet Theorem of Levine-Raksit. As an application, we show…
We provide sufficient conditions to factorise an equivariant spectral triple as a Kasparov product of unbounded classes constructed from the group action on the algebra and from the fixed point spectral triple. Our results are for the…
We study matrix factorizations of locally free coherent sheaves on a scheme. For a scheme that is projective over an affine scheme, we show that homomorphisms in the homotopy category of matrix factorizations may be computed as the…
Okounkov [36] proved a remarkable formula relating $n$-point GUE (Gaussian unitary ensemble) correlators of a fixed genus to Witten's intersection numbers of the same genus. The partition function of GUE correlators is a tau-function for…
We define a new class of generating function transformations related to polylogarithm functions, Dirichlet series, and Euler sums. These transformations are given by an infinite sum over the $j^{th}$ derivatives of a sequence generating…
The Exponential Formula allows one to enumerate any class of combinatorial objects built by choosing a set of connected components and placing a structure on each connected component which depends only on its size. There are multiple…
Let K be an algebraically closed field, X a K-scheme, and X(K) the set of closed points in X. A constructible set C in X(K) is a finite union of subsets Y(K) for finite type subschemes Y in X. A constructible function f : X(K) --> Q has…
We prove a factorization-concentration result for characters of symmetric groups. This is then applied to the asymptotic behaviour of the decomposition of the tensor representations. There are connections with the Pastur-Marcenko…
Let $G$ be a $(2,m,n)$-group and let $x$ be the number of distinct primes dividing $\chi$, the Euler characteristic of $G$. We prove, first, that, apart from a finite number of known exceptions, a non-abelian simple composition factor $T$…
Many combinatorial generating functions can be expressed as combinations of symmetric functions, or extracted as sub-series and specializations from such combinations. Gessel has outlined a large class of symmetric functions for which the…
