We study the tau function of the KP-hierarchy associated with an (n,1) curve $y^n=x-\alpha$. If $\alpha=0$ the corresponding tau function is 1. On the other hand if $\alpha\neq 0$ the tau function becomes the exponential of a quadratic…

We compare and contrast various notions of the "critical locus" of a complex analytic function on a singular space. After choosing a topological variant as our primary notion of the critical locus, we justify our choice by generalizing L\^e…

In this paper we completely classify symplectic actions of a torus $T$ on a compact connected symplectic manifold $(M, \sigma)$ when some, hence every, principal orbit is a coisotropic submanifold of $(M, \sigma)$. That is, we construct an…

We derive a universal formula for the average heavy-heavy-light structure constants for 2d CFTs with non-vanishing u(1) charge. The derivation utilizes the modular properties of one-point functions on the torus. Refinements in N=2 SCFTs,…

Let $G(z)$ be the Green function on the flat torus $E_{\tau}=\mathbb{C}/(\mathbb{Z}+\mathbb{Z}\tau)$ with the singularity at $0$. Lin and Wang (Ann. Math. 2010) proved that $G(z)$ has either $3$ or $5$ critical points (depending on the…

Non-relativistic conformal field theory describes many-body physics at unitarity. The correlation functions of the system are fixed by the requirement of conformal invariance. In this article, we discuss the correlation functions of scalar…

This article is devoted to the study of a certain class of smooth circle-valued functions on a cylinder $S^1\times [0,1]$, a torus $T^2$, a disk $D^2$ and a sphere $S^2$ which is a generalization of Morse-Bott functions without saddles. We…
