The present paper is a sequel to our work on hybrid geometry of curves and their moduli spaces. We introduce a notion of hybrid Laplacian, formulate a hybrid Poisson equation, and give a mathematical meaning to the convergence both of the…
The Grassmannian of affine subspaces is a natural generalization of both the Euclidean space, points being zero-dimensional affine subspaces, and the usual Grassmannian, linear subspaces being special cases of affine subspaces. We show…
We review recent results and ongoing investigations of the symplectic and Poisson geometry of derived moduli spaces, and describe applications to deformation quantization of such spaces.
We consider the moduli space of bordered Riemann surfaces with boundary and marked points. Such spaces appear in open-closed string theory, particularly with respect to holomorphic curves with Lagrangian submanifolds. We consider a…
In this paper we define a generalization of the pentagram map to a map on twisted polygons in the Grassmannian space Gr(n;mn). We define invariants of Grassmannian twisted polygons under the natural action of SL(nm), invariants that define…
We explicitly construct a symplectomorphism that relates magnetic twists to the invariant hyperk\"ahler structure of the tangent bundle of a Hermitian symmetric space. This symplectomorphism reveals foliations by (pseudo-) holomorphic…
In this paper we relate a well-known in symplectic geometry compactification of the space of symmetric bilinear forms considered as a chart of the Lagrangian Grassmannian to the specific compactifications of the space of electrical networks…
In this paper, we study harmonic analysis on finite homogeneous spaces whose associated permutation representation decomposes with multiplicity. After a careful look at Frobenius reciprocity and transitivity of induction, and the…
We construct a $GL$-invariant measure on a semi-infinite Grassmannian over a finite field, describe the natural group of symmetries of this measure, and decompose the space $L^2$ over the Grassmannian on irreducible representations. The…
We study solitons in scalar theories with polynomial interactions on the fuzzy sphere. Such solitons are described by projection operators of rank k, and hence the moduli space for the solitons is the Grassmannian Gr(k,2j+1). The gradient…
We prove a conjecture of Ian Agol: all isometric realizations of a polyhedral surface with boundary sweep out an isotropic subset in the Kapovich-Millson moduli space of polygons isomorphic to the boundary. For a generic polyhedral disk we…
This is one in a series of papers devoted to the foundations of Symplectic Field Theory sketched in [Y Eliashberg, A Givental and H Hofer, Introduction to Symplectic Field Theory, Geom. Funct. Anal. Special Volume, Part II (2000) 560--673].…
Symplectic and Poisson structures of certain moduli spaces/Huebschmann,J./ Abstract: Let $\pi$ be the fundamental group of a closed surface and $G$ a Lie group with a biinvariant metric, not necessarily positive definite. It is shown that a…
We define hypergeometric functions using intersection homology valued in a local system. Topology is emphasized; analysis enters only once, via the Hodge decomposition. By a pull-back procedure we construct special subsets S_{pi}, derived…
The matrix affine Poisson space (M_{m,n}, pi_{m,n}) is the space of complex rectangular matrices equipped with a canonical quadratic Poisson structure which in the square case m=n reduces to the standard Poisson structure on GL_n(C). We…
We start by constructing a Hilbert manifold T of orientation preserving diffeomorphisms of the circle (modulo the group of bi-holomorphic self-mappings of the disc). This space, which could be thought of as a completion of the universal…
We study deformations of symplectic structures on a smooth manifold $M$ via the quasi-Poisson theory. By a fact, we can deform a given symplectic structure $\omega $ to a new symplectic structure $\omega_t$ parametrized by some element $t$…
Let $\Sigma $ be a compact connected and oriented surface with nonempty boundary and let $G$ be a Lie group equipped with a bi-invariant pseudo-Riemannian metric. The moduli space of flat principal $G$-bundles over $\Sigma$ which are…
We study modular and integral flow polynomials of graphs by means of subgroup arrangements and lattice polytopes. We introduce an Eulerian equivalence relation on orientations, flow arrangements, and flow polytopes; and we apply the theory…
Let $V$ and $V'$ be $2n$-dimensional vector spaces over fields $F$ and $F'$. Let also $\Omega: V\times V\to F$ and $\Omega': V'\times V'\to F'$ be non-degenerate symplectic forms. Denote by $\Pi$ and $\Pi'$ the associated…
