Let ${\mathbb{TL}_n^{\! \mathbb Q}} $ be the rational Temperley-Lieb algebra, with loop parameter $ 2 $. In the first part of the paper we study the seminormal idempotents $ E_{ \mathfrak{t}} $ for ${\mathbb{TL}_n^{\! \mathbb Q}}$ for $…
A notable example due to Heier, Lu, Wong, and Zheng shows that there exist compact complex K\"ahler manifolds with ample canonical line bundle such that the holomorphic sectional curvature is negative semi-definite and vanishes along…
Following a suggestion by Vafa, we present a quantum-mechanical model for S-duality symmetries observed in the quantum theories of fields, strings and branes. Our formalism may be understood as the topological limit of Berezin's metric…
We describe the Segal $K$-theory of the symmetric monoidal category of finite-dimensional vector spaces over a perfect field $\mathbb{F}$ together with an automorphism, or, equivalently, the group-completion of the $E_\infty$-algebra of…
Let $V$ be an $n$-dimensional left vector space over a division ring $R$ and $n\ge 3$. Denote by ${\mathcal G}_{k}$ the Grassmann space of $k$-dimensional subspaces of $V$ and put ${\mathfrak G}_{k}$ for the set of all pairs $(S,U)\in…
In this note we introduce a natural Finsler structure on convex surfaces, referred to as the projective Finsler structure, which is dual in a sense to the obvious inclusion of a convex surface in a normed space. It has an associated…
We investigate the relationship between the algebra of tensor categories and the topology of framed 3-manifolds. On the one hand, tensor categories with certain algebraic properties determine topological invariants. We prove that fusion…
We consider the relative canonical line bundle $K_{\mathcal{X}/\mathcal{T}}$ and a relatively ample line bundle $(L, e^{-\phi})$ over the total space $ \mathcal{X}\to \mathcal{T}$ of fibration over the Teichm\"uller space by Riemann…
For a field $\mathbb{F}$ and a triangulated compact $\mathbb{F}$-orientable manifold, consider the homology of the associated Moment-Angle ccomplex $H_*(\mathcal{Z}_{\mathcal{K}})$. We show the total homology rank…
We study the twisted K-theory and K-homology of some infinite dimensional spaces, like SU(\infty), in the bivariant setting. Using a general procedure due to Cuntz we construct a bivariant K-theory on the category of separable…
The bienergy of smooth maps between Riemannian manifolds, when restricted to unit vector fields, yields two different variational problems depending on whether one takes the full functional or just the vertical contribution. Their critical…
We prove several results about integral versions of Fourier duality for abelian schemes, making use of Pappas's work on integral Grothendieck-Riemann-Roch. If $S$ is smooth quasi-projective of dimension $d$ over a field and $\pi \colon X\to…
For any finite-dimensional Hopf algebra $A$ there exists a natural associative algebra homomorphism $D(A) \to H(A)$ between its Drinfeld double $D(A)$ and its Heisenberg double $H(A)$. We construct this homomorphism using a pair of…
In this manuscript we study natural symmetries of Kaehler manifolds: constant holomorphic sectional curvature Kaheler manifolds, semisymmetric Kaehler manifolds and holomorphically pseudosymmetric Kaehler manifolds. We get characterization…
Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional vector space over a field $\mathbb{F}$, equipped with a symmetric or alternating non-degenerate bilinear form $b$. When the characteristic of $\mathbb{F}$ is not $2$, we characterize the endomorphisms $u$ of…
Let $M$ be a $n$-dimensional complex manifold and $f,g:M\to M$ two distinct holomorphic self-maps. Suppose that $f$ and $g$ coincide on a globally irreducible compact hypersurface $S\subset M$. We show that if one of the two maps is a local…
This paper serves to elucidate the nature of toric duality dubbed in hep-th/0003085 in the construction for world volume theories of D-branes probing arbitrary toric singularities. This duality will be seen to be due to certain permutation…
Let $\mathbf{G}$ be a reductive group and $\mathbf{X}$ a spherical $\mathbf{G}$-variety over a local non-archimedean field $\mathbb{F}$. We denote by $S(\mathbf{X}(\mathbb{F}))$ the Schwartz-functions on $\mathbf{X}(\mathbb{F})$. In this…
The present work is devoted to compact completely solvable solvmanifolds which admit Kahlerian metrics whose Kahler forms are homogeneous. In particular, we show that such manifolds are diffeomorphic to flat tori. Our proof is based on…
We study large random partitions boxed into a rectangle and coming from skew Howe duality, or alternatively from dual Schur measures. As the sides of the rectangle go to infinity, we obtain: 1) limit shape results for the profiles…
