Recently the author has presented a new approach to solving extremal problems of geometric function theory. It involves the Bers isomorphism theorem for Teichmuller spaces of punctured Riemann surfaces. We show here that this approach,…
We construct smooth Riemannian metrics with constant scalar curvature on each Hirzebruch surface. These metrics respect the complex structures, fiber bundle structures, and Lie group actions of cohomogeneity one on these manifolds. Our…
We derive quantum Boltzmann equations from Schwinger-Dyson equations in gradient expansion for a weakly coupled scalar field theory with a spatially varying mass. We find that at higher order in gradients a full description of the system…
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 compute the partition and correlation generating functions for the Heisenberg intertwiner generalized vertex operator algebra on a genus $g$ Riemann surface in the Schottky uniformization. These are expressed in terms of differential…
We consider invariant covariant derivatives on reductive homogeneous spaces corresponding to the well-known invariant affine connections. These invariant covariant derivatives are expressed in terms of horizontally lifted vector fields on…
We present a quantum version of the construction of the KZ system of equations as a flat connection on the spaces of coinvariants of representations of tensor products of Kac-Moody algebras. We consider here representations of a tensor…
Ginzburg algebras associated to triangulated surfaces provide a means to categorify the cluster algebras of these surfaces. As shown by Ivan Smith, the finite derived category of such a Ginzburg algebra can be embedded into the Fukaya…
A quantum principal bundle is constructed for every Coxeter group acting on a finite-dimensional Euclidean space $E$, and then a connection is also defined on this bundle. The covariant derivatives associated to this connection are the…
Through AGT conjecture, we show how triality observed in \N=2 SU(2) N_f=4 QCD can be interpreted geometrically as the interplay among six of Kummer's twenty-four solutions belonging to one fixed Riemann scheme in the context of…
The aim of this paper is to generalize the notion of conformal blocks to the situation in which the Lie algebra they are attached to is not defined over a field, but depends on covering data of curves. The result will be a sheaf of…
The general construction of self-adjoint configuration space representations of the Heisenberg algebra over an arbitrary manifold is considered. All such inequivalent representations are parametrised in terms of the topology classes of flat…
We approach the problem of uniformization of general Riemann surfaces through consideration of the curvature equation, and in particular the problem of constructing Poincar\'e metrics (i.e., complete metrics of constant negative curvature)…
In this paper, we give a simple and geometric, but formal, description of an open subset of the character variety of surface groups into $\mathrm{SL}_n(\mathbb{C})$. The main ingredient is a modified version of the WKB method, which we call…
Recently we suggested a new quantum algebra, the moduli algebra, which was conjectured to be a quantum algebra of observables of the Hamiltonian Chern Simons theory. This algebra provides the quantization of the algebra of functions on the…
Here we define a series of associative algebras attached to a vertex operator algebra $V$, called mode transition algebras, showing they reflect both algebraic properties of $V$ and geometric constructions on moduli of curves. One can…
The paper has two relatively distinct but connected goals; the first is to define the notion of Pad\'e\ approximation of Weyl-Stiltjes transforms on an arbitrary compact Riemann surface of higher genus. The data consists of a contour in the…
In this paper, we apply the theory of Chern-Cheeger-Simons to construct canonical invariants associated to a $r$-simplex whose points parametrize flat connections on a smooth manifold $X$. These invariants lie in degrees…
After defining generalizations of the notions of covariant derivatives and geodesics from Riemannian geometry for reductive Cartan geometries in general, various results for reductive Cartan geometries analogous to important elementary…
We introduce a correspondence between dimer models (and hence superconformal quivers) and the quantum Teichmuller space of the Riemann surfaces associated to them by mirror symmetry. Via the untwisting map, every brane tiling gives rise to…
