A topological quantum field theory is introduced which reproduces the Seiberg-Witten invariants of four-manifolds. Dimensional reduction of this topological field theory leads to a new one in three dimensions. Its partition function yields…
We survey recent developments on the Restriction conjecture.
These are notes on twisted K-homology theory and twisted Ext-theory from the C*-algebra viewpoint, part of a series of talks on ``C*-algebras, noncommutative geometry and K-theory'', primarily for physicists.
The mapping of topologically nontrivial gauge transformations in noncommutative gauge theory to corresponding commutative ones is investigated via the operator form of the Seiberg-Witten map. The role of the gauge transformation part of the…
We review recent developments in the theory of supermembranes and their relation to matrix models.
In this article we will represent some ideas and a lot of new theorems in Euclidean plane geometry.
These are the lecture notes of a set of lectures delivered at the 1995 Trieste summer school in June. I review some recent work on duality in four dimensional Maxwell theory on arbitrary four manifolds, as well as a new set of topological…
We summarize theoretical and experimental work on tests of CPT and local Lorentz symmetry in gravity. Recent developments include extending the effective field theory framework into the nonlinear regime of gravity.
In this revised version, we add some expository material and references and make some minor corrections.
The well known relation between extended supersymmetry and complex geometry in the non-linear sigma-models is reviewed, and some recent developments related to the introduction of the non-anti-commutativity, in the context of the…
This article presents a survey of some recent results in the theory of spatial graphs. In particular, we highlight results related to intrinsic knotting and linking and results about symmetries of spatial graphs. In both cases we consider…
We review recent developments in the theory of supermembranes and their relation to matrix models.
In this paper, we study Siegel modular forms with extra twists. We provide conditions on the level and genus of the forms that is necessary for the existence of extra twists for Siegel modular forms. We also give explicit examples of Siegel…
We will review some of the theoretical progresses that have been in the study of complex systems in physics and of their applications to biology.
We study the Seiberg-Witten curves for N=2 SUSY gauge theories arising from type IIA string configurations with two orientifold sixplanes. Such theories lift to elliptic models in M-theory. We express the M-theory background for these…
This article is a survey of recent developments in, and a tutorial on, the approach to P v. NP and related questions called Geometric Complexity Theory (GCT). It is written to be accessible to graduate students. Numerous open questions in…
Over the past few years there has been considerable progress in the structural understanding of special Colombeau algebras. We present some of the main trends in this development: non-smooth differential geometry, locally convex theory of…
New splitting theorems in a semi-Riemannian manifold which admits an irrotational vector field (not necessarily a gradient) with some suitable properties are obtained. According to the extras hypothesis assumed on the vector field, we can…
I review some recent developments in the theory of heavy quarkonium in an effective field theory framework.
The Einstein-Maxwell equations on a smooth compact 4-manifold are reformulated as a purely Riemannian variational problem analogous to Calabi's variational problem for extremal Kahler metrics. Next, Seiberg-Witten theory is used to show…
