We construct supersymmetric K field theories (i.e., theories with a non-standard kinetic term) in 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions such that the bosonic sector just consists of a nonstandard kinetic term plus a potential. Further, we study the…
We sketch recent applications of the harmonic superspace approach for off-shell formulations of $(4,4)$, $2D$ sigma models with torsion and for constructing super KdV hierarchies associated with "small" and "large" $N=4$ superconformal…
In this work we study three exterior extension problems for strongly elliptic partial equations: the Cauchy problem (in a special statement), the "analytical" continuation problem and the so called "inner" Dirichlet problem in the scale of…
In this paper, symmetry analysis is extended to study nonlocal differential equations, in particular two integrable nonlocal equations, the nonlocal nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation and the nonlocal modified Korteweg--de Vries equation. Lie…
Four dimensional N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories with unitary gauge groups and matter in the adjoint and fundamental representations give rise to a series of non-trivial fixed points with an ADE classification. Many of these models…
We revisit the symmetry structure of integrable PDEs, looking at the specific example of the KdV equation. We identify 4 nonlocal symmetries of KdV depending on a parameter, which we call generating symmetries. We explain that since these…
We study numerically the small dispersion limit for the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation $u_t+6uu_x+\epsilon^{2}u_{xxx}=0$ for $\epsilon\ll1$ and give a quantitative comparison of the numerical solution with various asymptotic formulae for…
The Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation with periodic boundary conditions is considered. It is shown that for $H^s$ initial data, $s>-1/2$, and for any $s_1<\min(3s+1,s+1)$, the difference of the nonlinear and linear evolutions is in $H^{s_1}$…
We consider the effect of curved two-dimensional space-time on Witten's $N=2$ supersymmetric sigma models interpolating Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces to Landau-Ginzburg models. In order for the former models to have significant connection to…
We propose a hamiltonian formulation of the $N=2$ supersymmetric KP type hierarchy recently studied by Krivonos and Sorin. We obtain a quadratic hamiltonian structure which allows for several reductions of the KP type hierarchy. In…
In this dissertation we study basic local differential geometry, projective differential geometry, and prolongations of overdetermined geometric partial differential equations. It is simple to prolong an n-th order linear ordinary…
First, we study pseudo-Euclidean Jordan algebras obtained as double extensions of a quadratic vector space by a one-dimensional algebra. We give an isomorphic characterization of 2-step nilpotent pseudo-Euclidean Jordan algebras. Next, we…
The N=1 supersymmetric invariant Landau problem is constructed and solved. By considering Landau level projections remaining non trivial under N=1 supersymmetry transformations, the algebraic structures of the N=1 supersymmetric covariant…
We discuss an elementary, yet unsolved, problem of Niederreiter concerning the enumeration of a class of subspaces of finite dimensional vector spaces over finite fields. A short and self-contained account of some recent progress on this…
We classify all possible four-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric UV-complete gauge theories composed of semi-simple gauge groups and hypermultiplets. We also give appropriate references for all theories with known Seiberg-Witten solutions.
I give an introductory review of recent, fascinating developments in supersymmetric gauge theories. I explain pedagogically the miraculous properties of supersymmetric gauge dynamics allowing one to obtain exact solutions in many instances.…
The distance between the solutions to the integrable Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation and a broad class of non-integrable generalized KdV (gKdV) equations is estimated in appropriate Sobolev spaces. This family of equations includes, as…
We describe the harmonic superspace formulation of the Witten-Manin supertwistor correspondence for N=3 extended super Yang-Mills theories. The essence is that on being sufficiently supersymmetrised (up to the N=3 extension), the Yang-Mills…
We consider the four dimensional scale invariant N=2 SU quiver gauge theories with USp(2N) ends or SU(2N) ends with antisymmetric matter representations. We argue that these theories are realized as six dimensional A_{2N-1} (0,2) theories…
The Korteweg-de Vries equation (KdV) and various generalized, most often semi- linear versions have been studied for about 50 years. Here, the focus is made on a quasi-linear generalization of the KdV equation, which has a fairly general…
