We find a formula for the resolution of fixed points in extensions of permutation orbifold conformal field theories by its (half-)integer spin simple currents. We show that the formula gives a unitary and modular invariant S matrix.
Let G be a group which acts on a commutative ring k. We exhibit an induction formula which expresses an element x_G with tr_G(x_G)=1 by elements x_P with tr_P(x_P)=1, where P varies over prime order subgroups of P.
Given a closed, oriented surface, possibly with boundary, and a mapping class, we obtain sharp lower bounds on the number of fixed points of a surface symplectomorphism (i.e. area-preserving map) in the given mapping class, both with and…
This paper verifies a conjecture posed in a pair of papers on the fixed point sets for a class of quantum operations. Specifically, it is proved that if a quantum operation has mutually commuting operation elements that are effects forming…
We develop elliptic theory of operators associated with a diffeomorphism of a closed smooth manifold. The aim of the present paper is to obtain an index formula for such operators in terms of topological invariants of the manifold and of…
We prove that if $F$ is a finitely generated abelian group of orientation preserving $C^1$ diffeomorphisms of $R^2$ which leaves invariant a compact set then there is a common fixed point for all elements of $F.$ We also show that if $F$ is…

We study differential operators, whose coefficients define noncommutative algebras. As algebra of coefficients, we consider crossed products, corresponding to action of a discrete group on a smooth manifold. We give index formulas for…
We show how the index formula for manifolds with fibered boundaries can be used to compute the index of the Dirac operator on Taub-NUT space twisted by an anti-self-dual generic instanton connection.
In [GT], Goldin and the second author extend some ideas from Schubert calculus to the more general setting of Hamiltonian torus actions on compact symplectic manifolds with isolated fixed points. (See also [Kn99] and [Kn08].) The main goal…
Given an elliptic action of a compact Lie group $G$ on a co-oriented contact manifold $(M,E)$ one obtains two naturally associated objects: A $G$-transversally elliptic operator $\dirac$, and an equivariant differential form with…
Consider a compact symplectic manifold of dimension $2n$ with a Hamiltionan circle action. Then there are at least $n+1$ fixed points. Motivated by recent works on the case that the fixed point set consists of precisely $n+1$ isolated…
We study actions of finite groups on moduli spaces of stable holomorphic vector bundles and relate the fixed-point sets of those actions to representation varieties of certain orbifold fundamental groups.
Gromov showed that for fixed, arbitrarily large C, any uniformly C-Lipschitz affine action of a random group in his graph model on a Hilbert space has a fixed point. We announce a theorem stating that more general affine actions of the same…
The moment map $\mu$ is a central concept in the study of Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups $K$ on symplectic manifolds. In this short note, we propose a theory of moment maps coupled with an $\mathrm{Ad}_K$-invariant convex…
We establish a fixed point property for a certain class of locally compact groups, including almost connected Lie groups and compact groups of finite abelian width, which act by simplicial isometries on finite rank buildings with measurable…
We prove an asymptotic bound on the eta invariant of a family of coupled Dirac operators on an odd dimensional manifold. In the case when the manifold is the unit circle bundle of a positive line bundle over a complex manifold, we obtain…

We give an index formula for elliptic differential operators whose coefficients include shifts forming an infinite group.
We study an example of an index problem for a Dirac-like operator subject to Atiyah-Patodi-Singer boundary conditions on a noncommutative manifold with boundary, namely the quantum unit disk.
