We characterize those real flag manifolds that can be endowed with invariant generalized almost complex structures. We show that no $GM_2$-maximal real flag manifolds admit integrable invariant generalized almost complex structures. We give…
We extend some of our earlier results on the interconnection between ultrafilter extensions, and ultrapowers. Throughout we restrict ourselves to relational structures with one binary relation. Recently it was shown that for bounded…
We show that modularity and the gap condition make the holomorphic anomaly equation completely integrable for non-compact Calabi-Yau manifolds. This leads to a very efficient formalism to solve the topological string on these geometries in…
We show that a Goedel-like deformation of AdS3 in heterotic string theory can be realized as an exact string background. Indeed this class of solutions is obtained as an exactly marginal deformation of the conformal field theory describing…
We study a class of continuous deformations of branched complex projective structures on closed surfaces of genus $g\geq 2$, which preserve the holonomy representation of the structure and the order of the branch points. In the case of…
We consider product 4--manifolds S^1 X M, where M is a closed, connected and oriented 3-manifold. We prove that if S^1 X M admits a complex structure or a Lefschetz or Seifert fibration, then the following statement is true: S^1 X M admits…
Given a formally integrable almost complex structure $X$ defined on the closure of a bounded domain $D \subset \mathbb C^n$, and provided that $X$ is sufficiently close to the standard complex structure, the global Newlander-Nirenberg…
Generically an almost complex structure has no symmetries at all, but there exist symmetric structures. In this paper we describe how to guarantee that the pseudogroup of local symmetries is small (finite-dimensional). It will be indicated…
A well-known conjecture of Simon (1994) states that any pure $d$-dimensional shellable complex on $n$ vertices can be extended to $\Delta_{n-1}^{(d)}$, the $d$-skeleton of the $(n-1)$-dimensional simplex, by attaching one facet at a time…
The aim of this paper is to study the geometry of the stack of $S_{3}$-covers. We show that it has two irreducible components $\mathcal{Z}_{S_{3}}$ and $\mathcal{Z}_{2}$ meeting in a "degenerate" point $\{0\}$, $\mathcal{Z}_{2}-\{0\}\simeq…
Suppose M is a connected, open, orientable, irreducible 3-manifold which is not homeomorphic to R^3. Given a compact 3-manifold J in M which satisfies certain conditions, Brin and Thickstun have associated to it an open neighborhood V$…
The global extendibility of smooth causal geodesically incomplete spacetimes is investigated. Denote by $\gamma$ one of the incomplete non-extendible causal geodesics of a causal geodesically incomplete spacetime $(M,g_{ab})$. First, it is…
We prove existence of extension dimension for paracompact spaces. Here is the main result of the paper: \proclaim{Theorem} Suppose X is a paracompact space. There is a CW complex K such that {a.} K is an absolute extensor of X up to…
Let $\Delta \ge 3$ be fixed, $n \ge n_\Delta$ be a large integer. It is a classical result that $\Delta$--regular expanders on $n$ vertices are not embeddable as geometric (distance) graphs into Euclidean space of dimension less than $c…
A two-dimensional topological sigma-model on a generalized Calabi-Yau target space $X$ is defined. The model is constructed in Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism using only a generalized complex structure $J$ and a pure spinor $\rho$ on $X$. In…
Let $S$ be a smooth projective surface over a field. We introduce the notion of integral decomposability and, respectively, the opposite notion of integral indecomposability, of the transcendental motive $M^2_{\rm tr}(S)$. If the…
Let $A=(A_x)$ be a (semi-)continuous field of $C^*$-algebras over a compact Hausdorff space $X$ and let $p=(p_x)$ be a projection in $A$ such that each $p_x\in A_x$ is properly infinite ($x\in X$). Then $p$ is properly infinite if the field…
We obtain variational formulas for holomorphic objects on Riemann surfaces with respect to arbitrary local coordinates on the moduli space of complex structures. These formulas are written in terms of a canonical object on the moduli space…
In this paper we present some approaches to classification of almost complex structures and to construction of local or formal pseudoholomorphic mapping from one almost complex manifold to another. The corresponding criteria are given in…
We classify invariant almost complex structures on homogeneous manifolds of dimension 6 with semi-simple isotropy. Those with non-degenerate Nijenhuis tensor have the automorphism group of dimension either 14 or 9. An invariant almost…
