In a recent paper, giving an arbitrary homogeneous cohomological field theory (CohFT), Rossi, Shadrin, and the first author proposed a simple formula for a bracket on the space local functionals that conjecturally gives a second Hamiltonian…

We explore the symmetry structure of Type II Little String Theories and their T-dualities. We construct these theories both from the bottom-up perspective starting with seed Superconformal Field Theories, and from the top-down using…

If a complex $X$ is a subcomplex of a diagrammatically reducible 2-complex $Y$ that has locally indicable fundamental group, then $X$ has locally indicable fundamental group. This is a consequence of the Corson-Trace characterization of…

Given a semisimple group over a local field of residual characteristic p, its topological group of rational points admits maximal pro-p-subgroups. Quasi-split simply-connected semisimple groups can be described in the combinatorial terms of…

We propose a new approach to constructing semistable integral models of hypersurfaces over a discretely valued complete field K. For each stable hypersurface X over K we define a continuous stability function on the Bruhat-Tits building of…

In this paper, we study relations between Langlands L-functions and zeta functions of geodesic walks and galleries for finite quotients of the apartments of G=PGL3 and PGSp4 over a nonarchimedean local field with q elements in its residue…

We determine some properties of the narrow 2-class field tower of those real quadratic number fields whose discriminants are not a sum of two squares and for which their 2-class groups are elementary of order $4$. Here in Part I, we…

In Part I of this paper, we introduced a class of certain algebras of finite dimension over a field. All these algebras are split, symmetric and local. Here we continue to investigate their Loewy structure. We show that in many cases their…

We propose versions of higher Bruhat orders for types $B$ and $C$. This is based on a theory of higher Bruhat orders of type~A and their geometric interpretations (due to Manin--Shekhtman, Voevodskii--Kapranov, and Ziegler), and on our…

We generalize previous results on target space duality to the case where there are background fields and the sigma model lagrangian has a potential function.

A generalization of the two-dimensional Yang-Mills and generalized Yang-Mills theory is introduced in which the building B-F theory is nonlocal in the auxiliary field. The classical and quantum properties of this nonlocal generalization are…

A Mustafin variety is a degeneration of projective space induced by a point configuration in a Bruhat-Tits building. The special fiber is reduced and Cohen-Macaulay, and its irreducible components form interesting combinatorial patterns.…

We introduce the notion of ideal triangle in the Bruhat-Tits building associated to a split group -- it is analogous to the usual notion of triangle, but one vertex is "at infinity" in a certain direction. We prove that the algebraic…

We calculate Tits buildings for certain arithmetic subgroups of Sp(4). These give information about the boundary of the corresponding moduli spaces of abelian surfaces. More pictures (in colour) and a summary of the results (in English) can…

We describe the stabilizers of points in the Bruhat-Tits building of the group SL with tropical geometry. There are several compactifications of this building associated to algebraic representations of SL. We show that the fans used to…

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.…

We give another definition of two-dimensional extended homotopy field theories (E-HFTs) with aspherical targets and classify them. When the target of E-HFT is chosen to be a $K(G,1)$-space, we classify E-HFTs taking values in the symmetric…

This is a continuation of Part I.

For a fairly general class of two-dimensional tiling substitutions, we prove that if the length expansion $\beta$ is a Pisot number, then the tilings defined by the substitution must be locally finite. We also give a simple example of a…

We give a generalization of subspace codes by means of codes of modules over finite commutative chain rings. We define a new class of Sperner codes and use results from extremal combinatorics to prove the optimality of such codes in…
