We consider left-invariant (purely) coclosed G$_2$-structures on 7-dimensional 2-step nilpotent Lie groups. According to the dimension of the commutator subgroup, we obtain various criteria characterizing the Riemannian metrics induced by…
We present a construction of a canonical G_2 structure on the unit sphere tangent bundle S_M of any given orientable Riemannian 4-manifold M. Such structure is never geometric or 1-flat, but seems full of other possibilities. We start by…
We study the physics of singular limits of $G_2$ compactifications of M-theory, which are necessary to obtain a compactification with non-abelian gauge symmetry or massless charged particles. This is more difficult than for Calabi-Yau…
We relate the graph isomorphism problem to the solvability of certain systems of linear equations with nonnegative variables. This version replaces the two previous versions of this paper.
We study gauging interfaces and their defect descendants in lattice models with generalized symmetries in higher dimensions. We construct explicit interface Hamiltonians for gauging a $\mathbb Z_2^{(0)}$ symmetry in $(2+1)d$ and a $\mathbb…
We investigate the SL(2,R) invariant geodesic curves with the as- sociated invariant distance function in parabolic geometry. Parabolic geom- etry naturally occurs in the study of SL(2,R) and is placed in between the elliptic and the…
In this paper we study a class of Riemannian metrics on the space of unparametrized curves and develop a method to compute geodesics with given boundary conditions. It extends previous works on this topic in several important ways. The…
Let $M=G/K$ be a generalized flag manifold, that is the adjoint orbit of a compact semisimple Lie group $G$. We use the variational approach to find invariant Einstein metrics for all flag manifolds with two isotropy summands. We also…
Many problems in Euclidean geometry, arising in computational design and fabrication, amount to a system of constraints, which is challenging to solve. We suggest a new general approach to the solution, which is to start with analogous…
This is a survey on finite-dimensional integrable dynamical systems related to Hamiltonian $G$-actions. Within a framework of noncommutative integrability we study integrability of $G$-invariant systems, collective motions and reduced…
Motivated by the study of uniaxial crystal optics, we consider a coupled system of $3D$ anisotropic wave equations, in which they have the same speed only in one direction but distinct speeds in the other directions. Moreover, this system…
A new approach for the construction of finite action solutions of the supersymmetric $\mathbb{C}P^{N-1}$ sigma model is presented. We show that this approach produces more non-holomorphic solutions than those obtained in previous…
Non-abelian horizontal symmetry has been considered to solve potentially SUSY flavor problem, but simple models are suffering from various problems. In this talk, we point out that (anomalous) U(1)_A gauge symmetry solves all the problems…
Let $G$ be a countable residually finite group (for instance $\mathbb{F}_2$) and let $\overleftarrow{G}$ be a totally disconnected metric compactification of $G$ equipped with the action of $G$ by left multiplication. For every $r\geq 1$ we…
We go on with the program started in the companion paper [CDI+] of defining a Poisson bracket structure on the space of solutions of the equations of motion of first order Hamiltonian field theories. The case of non-Abelian gauge theories…
We employ the gravitational decoupling approach for static and spherically symmetric systems to develop a simple and powerful method in order to a) continuously isotropize any anisotropic solution of the Einstein field equations, and b)…

Gauge invariant treatments of the second order cosmological perturbation in a four dimensional homogeneous isotropic universe filled with the perfect fluid are completely formulated without any gauge fixing. We derive all components of the…
We construct a family of holographic duals to anisotropic states in a strongly coupled gauge theory. On the field theory side the anisotropy is generated by giving a vacuum expectation value to a dimension three operator. We obtain our…
A supersymmetric solution to type II supergravity is constructed by superposing two hyperk\"ahlers with torsion metrics. The solution is given by a K\"aler with torsion metric with $SU(3)$ holonomy. The metric is embedded into a heterotic…
