Landen transformation, and more generally modular correspondences, can be seen to be exact symmetries of some integrable lattice models, like the square Ising model, or the Baxter model. They are solutions of remarkable Schwarzian equations…
We develop an explicit theory of formal modular forms over arbitrary number fields $K$, as functions of modular points. We define modular points for $\Gamma_0({\mathfrak n})$ and $\Gamma_1({\mathfrak n})$, where the level ${\mathfrak n}$ is…
We formulate the unitary rational orbifold conformal field theories in the algebraic quantum field theory framework. Under general conditions, we show that the orbifold of a given unitary rational conformal field theories generates a…
In these notes we explain how the CFT description of random matrix models can be used to perform actual calculations. Our basic example is the hermitian matrix model, reformulated as a conformal invariant theory of free fermions. We give an…
We construct a categorification of the modular data associated with every family of unipotent characters of the spetsial complex reflection group $G(d,1,n)$. The construction of the category follows the decomposition of the Fourier matrix…
We quantize the generalized-Witt algebra in characteristic 0 with its Lie bialgebra structures discovered by Song-Su (\cite{GY}). Via a modulo p reduction and a modulo "p-restrictedness" reduction process, we get 2^n{-}1 families of…
Witten recently gave further evidence for the conjectured relationship between the $A$ series of the $N=2$ minimal models and certain Landau-Ginzburg models by computing the elliptic genus for the latter. The results agree with those of the…
Monstrous moonshine relates distinguished modular functions to the representation theory of the monster. The celebrated observations that 196884=1+196883 and 21493760=1+196883+21296876, etc., illustrate the case of the modular function…
Using subvarieties, which we call Demazure quiver varieties, of the quiver varieties of Nakajima, we give a geometric realization of Demazure modules of Kac-Moody algebras with symmetric Cartan data. We give a natural geometric…
In this paper, we introduce morphisms for matroids with coefficients (in the sense of Baker and Bowler) and quiver matroids. We investigate their basic properties, such as functoriality, duality, minors and cryptomorphic characterizations…
Pseudo-hermitian matrices are matrices hermitian with respect to an indefinite metric. They can be thought of as the truncation of pseudo-hermitian operators, defined over some Krein space, together with the associated metric, to a finite…
Matrix elements of irreducible representations of the Lorentz group are calculated on the basis of complex angular momentum. It is shown that Laplace-Beltrami operators, defined in this basis, give rise to Fuchsian differential equations.…
We analyze perturbative aspects of gauged matrix models, including those where classically the gauge symmetry is partially broken. Ghost fields play a crucial role in the Feynman rules for these vacua. We use this formalism to elucidate the…
The theory of topological modular forms (TMF) predicts that elliptic genera of physical theories satisfy a certain divisibility property, determined by the theory's gravitational anomaly. In this note we verify this prediction in Duncan's…
Motivated by the connection between the eigenvalues of the complex Ginibre matrix model and the magnetic Laplacian in the complex plane, we derive analogues of the complex Hermite polynomials for the elliptic Ginibre model. To this end, we…
Among all of the non-Hermitian large-tridiagonal-matrix quantum Hamiltonians we choose a subclass with the structure resembling the ``benchmark'' realistic Bose-Hubbard model. We demonstrate that this choice can be declared user-friendly in…
We define enumerative invariants associated to a hybrid Gauged Linear Sigma Model. We prove that in the relevant special cases, these invariants recover both the Gromov-Witten type invariants defined by Chang-Li and Fan-Jarvis-Ruan using…
In this paper we generalize the notion of logarithmic vector-valued modular form in order to give a general definition of matrix-valued Hilbert modular forms. We prove that they admit unique polynomial Fourier expansions and we build…
These notes provide an introduction to the noncommutative matrix geometry which arises within matrix models of Yang-Mills type. Starting from basic examples of compact fuzzy spaces, a general notion of embedded noncommutative spaces…
All irreducible representations of the Chinese monoid $C_n$, of any rank $n$, over a nondenumerable algebraically closed field $K$, are constructed. It turns out that they have a remarkably simple form and they can be built inductively from…
