We use the manifestly N=2 supersymmetric, off-shell, harmonic (or twistor) superspace approach to solve the constraints implied by four-dimensional N=2 superconformal symmetry on the N=2 non-linear sigma-model target space, known as the…
The general form of N=2 supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of vector multiplets and hypermultiplets, with a generic gauging of the scalar manifold isometries is given. This extends the results already available in the literature in…
The Seiberg-Witten equation with multiple spinors generalises the classical Seiberg-Witten equation in dimension three. In contrast to the classical case, the moduli space of solutions $\mathcal{M}$ can be non-compact due to the appearance…
We study the moduli spaces of heterotic/type II dual pairs in four dimensions with N=2 supersymmetry corresponding to non-geometric Calabi-Yau backgrounds on the type II side and to T-fold compactifications on the heterotic side. The vector…
We construct a dilaton Weyl multiplet for $N = 3$ conformal supergravity in four dimensions. We couple an on-shell vector multiplet to the standard Weyl multiplet and use the field equations of the vector multiplet to replace some of the…
Following an earlier paper on the differential-geometric structure of the moduli space of special Lagrangian submanifolds in a Calabi-Yau manifold, we follow an analogous approach for compact complex Lagrangian submanifolds of a…
The essential elements in the construction of the couplings of vector multiplets to supergravity using the conformal approach are repeated. This approach leads automatically to the basic quantities on which the symplectic transformations,…
We consider some classical fibre bundles furnished with almost complex structures of twistor type, deduce their integrability in some cases and study \textit{self-holomorphic} sections of a \textit{symplectic} twistor space. With these we…
We study moduli spaces of meromorphic connections (with arbitrary order poles) over Riemann surfaces together with the corresponding spaces of monodromy data (involving Stokes matrices). Natural symplectic structures are found and described…
We consider a variant of the Seiberg-Witten equations for multiple-spinors. The moduli space of solutions to our generalized Seiberg-Witten equations in the setting of K\"ahler surfaces has a direct relation with ASD connections of…
We present a variety of geometrical and combinatorial tools that are used in the study of geometric structures on surfaces: volume, contact, symplectic, complex and almost complex structures. We start with a series of local rigidity results…
We compare the deformation theory and the analytic structure of the Seiberg-Witten moduli spaces of a K\"ahler surface to the corresponding components of the Hilbert scheme, and show that they are isomorphic. Next we show how to compute the…
We construct a new dilaton Weyl multiplet for $\mathcal{N}=3$ conformal supergravity in four dimensions. The R-symmetry realized on this dilaton Weyl multiplet is $SU(2) \times U(1) \times U(1)$. The construction follows a two-step…
We determine the general coupling of a system of scalars and antisymmetric tensors, with at most two derivatives and undeformed gauge transformations, for both rigid and local N=2 supersymmetry in four-dimensional spacetime. Our results…
We describe a N=2 supersymmetric extension of the nonrelativistic (2+1)-dimensional model describing particles on the noncommutative plane with scalar (electric) and vector (magnetic) interactions. First, we employ the N=2 superfield…
We show the existence of a symplectic structure on the moduli space of the Seiberg-Witten equations on $\Sigma \times \Sigma$ where $\Sigma$ is a compact oriented Riemann surface. To prequantize the moduli space, we construct a Quillen-type…
We consider gauged sigma-models from a Riemann surface into a Kaehler and hamiltonian G-manifold X. The supersymmetric N=2 theory can always be twisted to produce a gauged A-model. This model localizes to the moduli space of solutions of…
We obtain the Seiberg-Witten geometry for four-dimensional N=2 gauge theory with gauge group SO(2N_c) (N_c \leq 5) with massive spinor and vector hypermultiplets by considering the gauge symmetry breaking in the N=2 $E_6$ theory with…
Let G be a split semi-simple algebraic group over Q. Let S be a decorated surface, that is a topological oriented surface with a finite set of marked points on the boundary, considered modulo isotopy. We introduce a moduli space D(G,S) and…
We extend Witten's discussion of actions related to the Landau-Ginzburg description of Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces to cover the mirror class of models that include twisted chiral matter multiplets and a newly…
