We prove well-posedness of the Cauchy problem for a class of third order quasilinear evolution equations with variable coefficients in projective Gevrey spaces. The class considered is connected with several equations in Mathematical…
Two consistency conditions for partition functions established by Akemann and Dam-gaard in their studies of the fermionic mass dependence of the QCD partition function at low energy ({\it a la} Leutwiller-Smilga-Verbaarschot) are…
The purpose of the paper is to show that, in low dimensions, the WDVV equations are bi-Hamiltonian. The invariance of the bi-Hamiltonian formalism is proved for $N=3$. More examples in higher dimensions show that the result might hold in…
Okounkov [36] proved a remarkable formula relating $n$-point GUE (Gaussian unitary ensemble) correlators of a fixed genus to Witten's intersection numbers of the same genus. The partition function of GUE correlators is a tau-function for…
This is an elementary and self--contained review of twistor theory as a geometric tool for solving non-linear differential equations. Solutions to soliton equations like KdV, Tzitzeica, integrable chiral model, BPS monopole or Sine-Gordon…
Dijkgraaf-Witten theories are extended three-dimensional topological field theories of Turaev-Viro type. They can be constructed geometrically from categories of bundles via linearization. Boundaries and surface defects or interfaces in…
Dressing technique is used to construct commuting Lax operators which provide an integrable (canonical) structure behind Witten--Dijkgraaf--Verlinde--Verlinde equations. The commuting flows are related to the isomonodromic flows. Examples…
The aim of these lectures is to show that the methods of classical Hamiltonian mechanics can be profitably used to solve certain classes of nonlinear partial differential equations. The prototype of these equations is the well-known…
In this paper it is stressed that there is no {\em physical} reason for symmetries to be linear and that Lie group theory is therefore too restrictive. We illustrate this with some simple examples. Then we give a readable review on the…
The Kashiwara-Vergne (KV) conjecture states the existence of solutions of a pair of equations related with the Campbell-Baker-Hausdorff series. It was solved by Meinrenken and the first author over the real numbers, and in a formal version,…
We discuss various aspects of most general multisupport solutions to matrix models in the presence of hard walls, i.e., in the case where the eigenvalue support is confined to subdomains of the real axis. The structure of the solution at…
We consider the Hurwitz spaces of ramified coverings of $\mathbb{P}^1$ with prescribed ramification profile over the point at infinity. By means of a particular symmetric bidifferential on a compact Riemann surface, we introduce…
For any non-degenerate, quasi-homogeneous hypersurface singularity, we describe a family of moduli spaces, a virtual cycle, and a corresponding cohomological field theory associated to the singularity. This theory is analogous to…
We prove regularity for a class of boundary value problems for first order elliptic systems, with boundary conditions determined by spectral decompositions, under coefficient differentiability conditions weaker than previously known. We…
We study qualitative properties of positive solutions of noncooperative, possibly nonvariational, elliptic systems. We obtain new classification and Liouville type theorems in the whole Euclidean space, as well as in half-spaces, and deduce…
We consider a class of pseudodifferential evolution equations of the form $$u_t + (n(u) + Lu)_x = 0,$$ in which $L$ is a linear smoothing operator and $n$ is at least quadratic near the origin; this class includes in particular the Whitham…
We establish a homology relation for the Deligne-Mumford moduli spaces of real curves which lifts to a WDVV-type relation for real Gromov-Witten invariants of real symplectic manifolds; we also obtain a vanishing theorem for these…
Systems of discrete equations on a quadrilateral graph related to the series $D^{(2)}_N$ of the affine Lie algebras are studied. The systems are derived from the Hirota-Miwa equation by imposing boundary conditions compatible with the…
