Celestial holography suggests, among other things, that collinear singularities of graviton scattering amplitudes are described by the OPEs of some putative dual CFT. One of the great successes has been the insight that this duality is true…

In a symplectic framework, the infinitesimal action of symplectomorphisms together with suitable reparametrizations of the two dimensional complex base space generate some type of W-algebras. It turns out that complex structures…

The possibility of the extension of spatial diffeomorphisms to a larger family of symmetries in a class of classical field theories is studied. The generator of the additional local symmetry contains a quadratic kinetic term and a potential…

In terms of appropriate extended moduli spaces, we develop a finite-dimensional construction of the self-duality and related moduli spaces over a closed Riemann surface as stratified holomorphic symplectic spaces by singular…

We consider the finite W-superalgebras for a basic classical Lie superalgebra g associated with an even nilpotent element in g both over the field of complex numbers field and and over a filed of positive characteristic. We present the PBW…

All 4D gauge and gravitational theories in asymptotically flat spacetimes contain an infinite number of non-trivial symmetries. They can be succinctly characterized by generalized 2D currents acting on the celestial sphere. A complete…

Let $K$ be a normal subgroup of the finite group $H$. To a block of a $K$-interior $H$-algebra we associate a group extension, and we prove that this extension is isomorphic to an extension associated to a block given by the Brauer…

We investigate the generalised diffeomorphisms in M-theory, which are gauge transformations unifying diffeomorphisms and tensor gauge transformations. After giving an En(n)-covariant description of the gauge transformations and their…

We consider the class of profinite diffeological spaces, that is, diffeological spaces which diffeologies are deduced by pull-back of diffeologies on finite-dimensional manifolds through a system of projection mappings. This class includes…

A finite-dimensional unital and associative algebra over $\mathbb{R}$, or what we shall call simply "an algebra" in this paper for short, generalities the construction by which we derive the complex numbers by "adjoining an element $i$" to…

Double coverings of the orthogonal groups of the real and complex spaces are considered. The relation between discrete transformations of these spaces and fundamental automorphisms of Clifford algebras is established, where an isomorphism…

The group of diffeomorphisms of a circle is not an infinite-dimensional algebraic group, though in many ways it behaves as if it were. Here we construct an algebraic model for this object, and discuss some of its representations, which…

We study generalized diffeomorphisms in exceptional geometry with U-duality group E_{n(n)} from an algebraic point of view. By extending the Lie algebra e_n to an infinite-dimensional Borcherds superalgebra, involving also the extension to…

Dzhumadil'daev has classified all tensor module extensions of $diff(N)$, the diffeomorphism algebra in $N$ dimensions, and its subalgebras of divergence free, Hamiltonian, and contact vector fields. I review his results using explicit…

Following the general formalism reviewed in 0810.5355 [hep-th] we present several examples of possible D3-brane configurations on four-dimensional generalized Kaehler geometries. We will discuss T-duality transformations in N = 2 boundary…

We study objects in triangulated categories which have a two-dimensional graded endomorphism algebra. Given such an object, we show that there is a unique maximal triangulated subcategory, in which the object is spherical. This general…

We argue that a description of supersymmetric extended objects from a unified geometric point of view requires an enlargement of superspace. To this aim we study in a systematic way how superspace groups and algebras arise from Grassmann…
