These lecture notes cover 13 sessions and are presented as an e-print, intended to evolve over time. Quantum invariants do more than distinguish topological objects; they build bridges between topology, algebra, number theory and quantum…
The paper is withdrawn by the author. This was an embryon of the book which has now been published with World Scientific under the title "Lectures on Quantum Chromodynamics". See http://www.wspc.com.sg/books/physics/4443.html, where the…
We introduce a formulation of gauge theory on noncommutative spaces based on the concept of covariant coordinates. Some important examples are discussed in detail. A Seiberg-Witten map is established in all cases.
Few comments are given to clarify some issues of Weyssenhoff fluid in the Einstein-Cartan gravity.
We study Wick-rotations of left-invariant metrics on Lie groups, using results from real GIT (\cite{1}, \cite{2}, \cite{3}). An invariant for Wick-rotation of Lie groups is given, and we describe when a pseudo-Riemannian Lie group can be…
We discuss the (twisted) weak positivity theorem. We also treat some applications.
These are notes of a graduate course on representations of non-compact semisimple Lie groups given by the author at MIT.
In this article, an alternative interpretation of the Seiberg-Witten map in non-commutative field theory is provided. We show that the Seiberg-Witten map can be induced in a geometric way, by a field dependent co-ordinate transformation…
Using Maslov indices, we show the existence of oriented link invariants with values in the Witt rings of certain fields. Various classical invariants are closely related to this construction. We also explore a surprising connection with the…
This is a self-contained set of lecture notes covering various aspects of the theory of open quantum system, at a level appropriate for a one-semester graduate course. The main emphasis is on completely positive maps and master equations,…
This in an introduction to random matrix theory, giving an impression of some of the most important aspects of this modern subject. In particular, it covers the basic combinatorial and analytic theory around Wigner's semicircle law,…
We define Seiberg-Witten equations on closed manifolds endowed with a Riemannian foliation of codimension 4. When the foliation is taut, we show compactness of the moduli space under some hypothesis satisfied for instance by closed…
This note is an exposition of the proof of Thom's conjecture by Kronheimer and Mrowka, using the new Seiberg-Witten invariants.
This note gives a brief review of the integrable structures presented in the Seiberg-Witten approach to the N=2 SUSY gauge theories with emphasize on the case of the gauge theories with matter hypermultiplets included (described by spin…
