In the study of the generalization of Hilbert's Third Problem to spherical geometry, Sah constructed a Hopf algebra of spherical polytopes with product given by join and coproduct given by a generalized Dehn invariant. Using Zakharevich's…
We study complex hyperbolic disc bundles over closed orientable surfaces that arise from discrete and faithful representations H_n->PU(2,1), where H_n is the fundamental group of the orbifold S^2(2,...,2) and thus contains a surface group…
We prove a Simons-type holonomy theorem for totally skew 1-forms with values in a Lie algebra of linear isometries. The only transitive case, for this theorem, is the full orthogonal group. We only use geometric methods and we do not use…
The cosmological polytope of a graph $G$ was recently introduced to give a geometric approach to the computation of wavefunctions for cosmological models with associated Feynman diagram $G$. Basic results in the theory of positive…
We define and study the harmonic curves on domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$ into the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^1$. These are the $C^2$-regular mappings which are critical points of the second Dirichlet energy and satisfy the weak…
A new construction of decomposition smoothness spaces of homogeneous type is considered. The smoothness spaces are based on structured and flexible decompositions of the frequency space $\mathbb{R}^d\backslash\{0\}$. We construct simple…
The study of Sobolev and Poincar\'e inequalities for differential forms in Carnot groups and in the more general sub-Riemannian setting is still an open problem in its full generality. One may conjecture that, for general Carnot groups,…
We count pseudoholomorphic curves in the higher-dimensional Heegaard Floer homology of disjoint cotangent fibers of a two dimensional disk. We show that the resulting algebra is isomorphic to the Hecke algebra associated to the symmetric…
A ladder algebraic structure for $L^2(\mathbb{R}^+)$ which closes the Lie algebra $h(1)\oplus h(1)$, where $h(1)$ is the Heisenberg-Weyl algebra, is presented in terms of a basis of associated Laguerre polynomials. Using the Schwinger…
Quantum analogues of the homogeneous spaces $\GL(n)/\SO(n)$ and $\GL(2n)/\Sp(2n)$ are introduced. The zonal spherical functions on these quantum homogeneous spaces are represented by Macdonald's symmetric polynomials…
We introduce the H-type deviation $\delta({\mathbb G})$ of a step two Carnot group ${\mathbb G}$, which measures the deviation of the group from the class of Heisenberg-type groups. We show that $\delta({\mathbb G})=0$ if and only if…
The algebra $\mathcal{L}_{g,n}(H)$ was introduced by Alekseev-Grosse-Schomerus and Buffenoir-Roche and quantizes the character variety of the Riemann surface $\Sigma_{g,n}\!\setminus\! D$ ($D$ is an open disk). In this article we define a…
Let $M$ be a compact torsion-free $G_2$ 7-manifold or Calabi-Yau 6-manifold. We prove Hodge decomposition theorems for the $dd^\phi$ operators, introduced by Harvey and Lawson, which generalize the $i\partial\bar\partial$ operator used in…
In this paper, we {\color{black}study four kinds of polynomials orthogonal with the singularly perturbed Gaussian weight $w_{\rm SPG}(x)$, the deformed Freud weight $w_{\rm DF}(x)$, the jumpy Gaussian weight $w_{\rm JG}(x)$, and the…
There is a rich theory of so-called (strict) nearly Kaehler manifolds, almost-Hermitian manifolds generalising the famous almost complex structure on the 6-sphere induced by octonionic multiplication. Nearly Kaehler 6-manifolds play a…
We highlight that integer Heisenberg groups at level 2 underlie topological quantum phenomena: their group algebras coincide with the algebras of quantum observables of abelian anyons in fractional quantum Hall (FQH) systems on closed…
We prove that the $L_4$ norm of the vertical perimeter of any measurable subset of the $3$-dimensional Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$ is at most a universal constant multiple of the (Heisenberg) perimeter of the subset. We show that this…
We associate a monoidal category $\mathcal{H}^\lambda$ to each dominant integral weight $\lambda$ of $\widehat{\mathfrak{sl}}_p$ or $\mathfrak{sl}_\infty$. These categories, defined in terms of planar diagrams, act naturally on categories…
Let $SL_2$ be the rank one simple algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. The paper presents a new method for computing the dimension of the cohomology spaces $\text{H}^n(SL_2,V(m))$ for Weyl…
We show that every finite group $T$ is isomorphic to a normalizer quotient $N_{S_n}(H)/H$ for some $n$ and a subgroup $H\leq S_n$. We show that this holds for all large enough $n\ge n_0(T)$ and also with $S_n$ replaced by $A_n$. The two…
