We study moduli spaces of sheaves over non-projective K3 surfaces. More precisely, if $v=(r,\xi,a)$ is a Mukai vector on a K3 surface $S$ with $r$ prime to $\xi$ and $\omega$ is a "generic" K\"ahler class on $S$, we show that the moduli…
We investigate special Killing vector fields on 3-dimensional Riemannian manifolds of biwarped product-type. Starting from a diagonal metric on $\mathbb R^3$ determined by two nontrivial warping functions and a constant scaling factor, we…
We develop a unifed theory to study geometry of manifolds with different holonomy groups. They are classified by (1) real, complex, quaternion or octonion number they are defined over and (2) being special or not. Specialty is an…
Target space duality symmetries, which acts on K\"ahler and continuous Wilson line moduli, of a ${\bf Z}_N$ ($N\not=2$) 2-dimensional subspace of the moduli space of orbifold compactification are modified to include twisted moduli. These…
We use newly discovered N = (2, 2) vector multiplets to clarify T-dualities for generalized Kahler geometries. Following the usual procedure, we gauge isometries of nonlinear sigma-models and introduce Lagrange multipliers that constrain…
This is a survey of the work of Seiberg and Witten on 4-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory and of some of its recent extensions, written for mathematicians. The point of view is that of algebraic geometry and integrable…
We present a self-dual non-Abelian N=1 supersymmetric tensor multiplet in D=2+2 space-time dimensions. Our system has three on-shell multiplets: (i) The usual non-Abelian Yang-Mills multiplet (A_\mu{}^I, \lambda{}^I) (ii) A non-Abelian…
Aimed at complex geometers and representation theorists, this survey explores higher dimensional analogues of the rich interplay between Riemann surfaces, Virasoro and Kac-Moody Lie algebras, and conformal blocks. We introduce a panoply of…
We show how to represent a class of expressions involving discrete sums over partitions as matrix models. We apply this technique to the partition functions of 2* theories, i.e. Seiberg-Witten theories with the massive hypermultiplet in the…
Riemann surfaces are two-dimensional manifolds with a conformal class of metrics. It is well known that the harmonic action functional and harmonic maps are tools to study the moduli space of Riemann surfaces. Super Riemann surfaces are an…
We discuss gauge theory with a topological N=2 symmetry. This theory captures the de Rham complex and Riemannian geometry of some underlying moduli space $\cal M$ and the partition function equals the Euler number of $\cal M$. We explicitly…
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 purpose of this paper is: 1) to explain the Seiberg-Witten invariants, 2) to show that - on a K\"ahler surface - the solutions of the monopole equations can be interpreted as algebraic objects, namely effective divisors, 3) to give - as…
The hypermultiplet moduli space M_H in type II string theories compactified on a Calabi-Yau threefold X is largely constrained by supersymmetry (which demands quaternion-K\"ahlerity), S-duality (which requires an isometric action of SL(2,…
In this paper we study moduli spaces of sheaves on an abelian or projective K3 surface. If $S$ is a K3, $v=2w$ is a Mukai vector on $S$, where $w$ is primitive and $w^{2}=2$, and $H$ is a $v-$generic polarization on $S$, then the moduli…
In the paper we continue to study Special Bohr-Sommerfeld geometry of compact symplectic manifolds. Using natural deformation parameters we avoid the difficulties appeared in the definition of the moduli space of Special Bohr-Sommerfeld…
This paper locally classifies finite-dimensional Lie algebras of conformal and Killing vector fields on $\mathbb{R}^2$ relative to an arbitrary pseudo-Riemannian metric. Several results about their geometric properties are detailed, e.g.…
We construct local and nonlocal Hamiltonian structures and variational symplectic structures for the $(2+1)$-dimensional Euler equation in the vorticity form and study the action of the local Hamiltonian and symplectic structures on the…
We study curved-space rigid supersymmetry for two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric fields theories with a vector-like $R$-symmetry by coupling such theories to background supergravity. The associated Killing spinors can be…
A holomorphic triple over a compact Riemann surface consists of two holomorphic vector bundles and a holomorphic map between them. After fixing the topological types of the bundles and a real parameter, there exist moduli spaces of stable…
