The ring of symmetric functions carries the structure of a Hopf algebra. When computing the coproduct of complete symmetric functions $h_\lambda$ one arrives at weighted sums over reverse plane partitions (RPP) involving binomial…
In the proposed work, we establish a total of six new $P$--$Q$ modular equations involving theta--function $f(-q)$ with moduli of orders 1, 3, 7 and 21.These equations can be regarded as modular identities in the alternate theory of…
We introduce a local zeta-function for an irreducible admissible supercuspidal representation $\pi$ of the metaplectic double cover of $\SL_2$ over a non-archimedean local field of characteristic zero. We prove a functional equation of the…
This article describes results of joint work with Michael Rapoport and Tonghai Yang. First, we construct an modular form \phi(\tau) of weight 3/2 valued in the arithmetic Chow group of the arithmetic surface M attached toa Shimura curve…
For simple and simply-connected complex algebraic group G, we conjecture the existence of a functor eta_G from the category of 2-bordisms to the category of holomorphic symplectic varieties with Hamiltonian action, such that gluing of…
We study the $\Gamma$-convergence of the following functional ($p>2$) $$ F_{\epsilon}(u):=\epsilon^{p-2}\int_{\Omega}|Du|^p d(x,\partial \Omega)^{a}dx+\frac{1}{\epsilon^{\frac{p-2}{p-1}}}\int_{\Omega}W(u) d(x,\partial…
We study the explicit formula of Lusztig's integral forms of the level one quantum affine algebra $U_q(\hat{sl}_2)$ in the endomorphism ring of symmetric functions in infinitely many variables tensored with the group algebra of $\mathbb Z$.…
We study the superconformal indices of 4d theories coming from 6d N=(2,0) theory of type \Gamma on a Riemann surface, with the action of the outer-automorphism \sigma in the trace. We find that the indices are given by the partition…
In this article, we derive estimates of Teichm\"uller modular forms, and associated invariants. Let $\mathcal{M}_{g}$ denote the moduli space of compact hyperbolic Riemann surfaces of genus $g\geq 2$, and let $\overline{M}_{g}$ be the…
Topological quantum field theories with gauge group $\textrm{SU}_2$ associate to each surface with marked points $\Sigma$ and each integer $r>0$ a vector space $V_r (\Sigma)$ and to each simple closed curve $\gamma$ in $\Sigma$ an Hermitian…
Let $\Delta= \sum_{m=0}^\infty q^{(2m+1)^2} \in \mathbb{F}_2[[q]]$ be the reduction mod 2 of the $\Delta$ series. A modular form $f$ modulo $2$ of level 1 is a polynomial in $\Delta$. If $p$ is an odd prime, then the Hecke operator $T_p$…
We consider $U_{q}(\mathfrak{gl}_{n})$, the quantum group of type $A$ for $|q| = 1$, $q$ generic. We provide formulas for signature characters of irreducible finite-dimensional highest weight modules and Verma modules. In both cases, the…
We discover new analytic properties of classical partial and false theta functions and their potential applications to representation theory of W-algebras and vertex algebras in general. More precisely, motivated by clues from conformal…
We introduce and study higher depth quantum modular forms. We construct two families of examples coming from rank two false theta functions, whose "companions" in the lower half-plane can be also realized both as double Eichler integrals…
The SL(2,Z) representation $\pi$ on the center of the restricted quantum group U_{q}sl(2) at the primitive 2p-th root of unity is shown to be equivalent to the SL(2,Z) representation on the extended characters of the logarithmic (1,p)…
We view all smooth metrics $g$ on a closed surface $\Sigma$ through their Nash isometric embeddings $f_g: (\Sigma,g) \rightarrow (\mathbb{S}^{\tilde{n}}, \tilde{g})$ into a standard sphere of large, but fixed, dimension $\tilde{n}$. We…
We discuss ways that the ring of coefficients for a TQFT can be reduced if one restricts somewhat the allowed cobordisms. When we apply these methods to a TQFT associated to SO(3) at an odd prime p, we obtain a functor from a somewhat…
Given a mapping class f of an oriented surface Sigma and a lagrangian lambda in the first homology of Sigma, we define an integer n_{lambda}(f). We use n_{lambda}(f) (mod 4) to describe a universal central extension of the mapping class…
Two-dimensional $\sigma$-models corresponding to coset CFTs of the type $ (\hat{\mathfrak{g}}_k\oplus \hat{\mathfrak{h}}_\ell )/ \hat{\mathfrak{h}}_{k+\ell}$ admit a zoom-in limit involving sending one of the levels, say $\ell$, to…
On the space of isometric embeddings $f_g$ of metrics $g$ on a manifold $M^n$ into the standard $(\mb{S}^{\tn=\tn(n)},\tg)$, we consider the total exterior scalar curvature $\Theta_{f_g}(M)$, and squared $L^2$ norm of the mean curvature…
