It is shown that in dimension at least three a local diffeomorphism of Euclidean n-space into itself is injective provided that the pull-back of every plane is a Riemannian submanifold which is conformal to a plane. Using a similar…
We study the Cox ring of the moduli space of stable pointed rational curves, \M_{0,n}, via the closely related permutohedral (or Losev-Manin) spaces. Our main result establishes \binom{n}{2} polynomial subrings of the Cox ring, thus giving…
We study finite dimensional vector spaces over fields of elliptic functions equipped with two commuting aotomorphisms \sigma and \tau induced by isogenies of relatively prime orders. We give a structure theorem for such objects, that…
Gromov-Witten invariants of a symplectic manifold are a count of holomorphic curves. We describe a formula expressing the GW invariants of a symplectic sum $X# Y$ in terms of the relative GW invariants of $X$ and $Y$. This formula has…
We enumerate smooth rational curves on very general Weierstrass fibrations over hypersurfaces in projective space. The generating functions for these numbers lie in the ring of classical modular forms. The method of proof uses topological…
The primary goal of this paper is to find a homotopy theoretic approximation to moduli spaces of holomorphic maps Riemann surfaces into complex projective space. There is a similar treatment of a partial compactification of these moduli…
We study tautological classes on the moduli space of stable $n$-pointed hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$ with rational tails. Our result gives a complete description of tautological relations. The method is based on the approach of Yin in…
We realize any space of conformal blocks attached to a punctured curve inside the cohomology of a configuration space of that curve and compare the WZW connection with the Gauss-Manin connection.
We construct Grassmann spaces associated with the incidence geometry of regular and tangential subspaces of a symplectic copolar space, show that the underlying metric projective space can be recovered in terms of the corresponding…
Refereed version to appear in Michigan Mathematical Journal. A mistake in the last section of the previous version has been corrected. The new title exactly describes the main result obtained. Building on the geometry of cubic surfaces and…
In the present paper, we introduce and study oriented Getzler-Kapranov complexes. These complexes are generalizations of S. Merkulov's oriented graph complex. We investigate their relation to the cohomology of moduli spaces of complex and…
We show the Kontsevich space of rational curves of degree at most roughly $\frac{2-\sqrt{2}}{2}n$ on a general hypersurface $X\subset \mathbb{P}^n$ of degree $n-1$ is equidimensional of expected dimension and has two components: one…
In math.AG/0207233, Okounkov and Pandharipande gave an operator formalism for computing the equivariant Gromov-Witten theory of the projective line. This thesis extends their result to orbifold lines. In the effective case the theory is…
A torsion-free G_2 structure admitting an infinitesimal isometry is shown to give rise to a 4-manifold equipped with a complex symplectic structure and a 1-parameter family of functions and 2-forms linked by second order equations.…
An algorithm to determine all the Gromov-Witten invariants of any smooth projective curve was obtained by Okounkov and Pandharipande in 2006. They identified stationary invariants with certain Hurwitz numbers and then presented Virasoro…
We consider the product of two projective lines equipped with the complex conjugation transforming $(x,y)$ into $(\bar{y},\bar{x})$ and blown up in at most two real, or two complex conjugate, points. For these four surfaces we prove the…
We collect geometric properties of the all-genus real Gromov-Witten theory and provide updates on its development since its introduction in 2015. We bring attention to a modification of the original construction of this theory which is…
In algebraic geometry, Gromov--Witten invariants are enumerative invariants that count the number of complex curves in a smooth projective variety satisfying some incidence conditions. In 2001, A. Givental and Y.P. Lee defined new…
In this paper we give a geometrical interpretation of all the second elliptic integrable systems associated to 4-symmetric spaces. We first show that a 4-symmetric space $G/G_0$ can be embedded into the twistor space of the corresponding…
We compute the equivariant cohomology of complex projective spaces associated to finite-dimensional representations of $C_2$, using ordinary cohomology graded on representations of the fundamental groupoid, with coefficients in the Burnside…
