This paper proposes a general machine learning framework called the localization method, which is fundamentally built on two core concepts: localization kernels and local means -- key components that underpin the self-attention mechanism.…

A simple corollary of the localization theorem (due to the author and, independently, to Lian-Liu-Yau) is applied to several problems in enumerative geometry. New formulas for Schubert calculus on flag manifolds, due to Kong, and a new…

We conjecture a structure formula for the $\mathrm{SU}(r)$ Vafa-Witten partition function for surfaces with holomorphic 2-form. The conjecture is based on $S$-duality and a structure formula for the vertical contribution previously derived…

We give an overview of moduli stabilization in compactifications of string theory. We summarize current methods for construction and analysis of vacua with stabilized moduli, and we describe applications to cosmology and particle physics.…

Localization is a topological technique that allows us to make global equivariant computations in terms of local data at the fixed points. For example, we may compute a global integral by summing integrals at each of the fixed points. Or,…

We generalize Witten's conjectured formula relating Donaldson and Seiberg-Witten invariants to manifolds of non-simple type, via equivariant localization techniques. This approach does not use the theory of non-abelian monopoles, but works…

In this article, using the language of jet space, we propose a functional class space for pseudo-local functionals. We test this functional class proposal in a number of examples ranging from string-field-theory to AdS/CFT dualities.…

This is a very brief survey of some results in the geometry of string duality delivered at a lecture given at ICM 1998, Berlin. String Duality is the statement that one kind of string theory compactified on one space is equivalent in some…

For a finite dimensional algebra $A$, we establish correspondences between torsion classes and wide subcategories in $mod(A)$. In case $A$ is representation finite, we obtain an explicit bijection between these two classes of subcategories.…

We use supersymmetric localization techniques to study the low-energy dynamics of BPS vortex-strings in four-dimensional N=2 theories. We focus on theories with SU(Nc)xU(1) gauge group and Nf hypermultiplets, all in the fundamental…

We develop a theory of Smith-Treumann localization and relative parity sheaves in the context of Fargues-Scholze's Geometrization of the Local Langlands Correspondence. We then apply this theory to prove some conjectures of…

This is the first part of two papers. In this part, we prove the blowup formulae for virtual Hodge polynomials of Gieseker moduli spaces of rank-2 stable sheaves and Uhlenbeck compactification spaces over algebraic surfaces. In particular,…

We argue that all conjectured dualities involving various string, M- and F- theory compactifications can be `derived' from the conjectured duality between type I and SO(32) heterotic string theory, T-dualities, and the definition of M- and…
