This paper is a set of lecture notes of my course "Special functions, KZ type equations, and representation theory" given at MIT during the spring semester of 2002. The notes do not contain new results, and are an exposition (mostly without…
We give an integral representation for solutions of the elliptic quantum Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov-Bernard difference equations, in the case of sl(2). The result is based on a geometric construction of highest weight representations of the…
We give an explicit description of "bundles of conformal blocks" in Wess-Zumino-Witten models of Conformal field theory and prove that integral representations of Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations constructed earlier by the second and third…
Some years ago, Fendley found an explicit solution to Thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz (TBA) equation for a N=2 supersymmetric theory in 2D with a specific F-term. Motivated by this, we seek for explicit solutions for other super-potential cases…
In these lecture notes we review different aspects of the arithmetic of K3 surfaces. Topics include rational points, Picard number and Tate conjecture, zeta functions and modularity.
This is a reprint volume devoted to exact solutions of models of strongly correlated electrons in one spatial dimension by means of the Bethe Ansatz.
This paper is based on my presentation at RIMS workshop on "Theory of Integrable Systems and Its Applications in Various Fields" held in Kyoto on 19--21, August 2015. The aim of the present paper is to give a short account of recent studies…
We study conformal blocks (the space of correlation functions) over compact Riemann surfaces associated to vertex operator algebras which are the sum of highest weight modules for the underlying Virasoro algebra. Under the fairly general…
The original article expressed the special values of the zeta function of a variety over a finite field in terms of the $\hat{Z}$-cohomology of the variety. As the article was being completed, Lichtenbaum conjectured the existence of…
This is essentially a translated (and explained) version of a peper Hecke published in 1930 where he shows, for a prime q, a relation between the class number h(-q) and the representation of PSL(2, Z / pZ) on the space of holomorphic…
This is a writeup of lectures given at the EPFL Lausanne in the fall of 2012. The topics covered: physical foundations of conformal symmetry, conformal kinematics, radial quantization and the OPE, and a very basic introduction to conformal…
In this article we have discovered a close relationship between the (algebraic) Bethe Ansatz equations of the spin $s$ XXZ model of a finite size and the $q$-Sturm-Liouville problem. We have demonstrated that solutions of the Bethe Ansatz…
We construct confluent conformal blocks of the second kind of the Virasoro algebra. We also construct the Stokes transformations which map such blocks in one Stokes sector to another. In the BPZ limit, we verify explicitly that the…
On June 5, 2007 the second author delivered a talk at the Journees de l'Institut Elie Cartan entitled "Finite symmetry groups in complex geometry". This paper begins with an expanded version of that talk which, in the spirit of the…
The special uniformity of zeta functions claims that pure non-abelian zeta functions coincide with group zeta functions associated to the special linear groups. Naturally associated are three aspects, namely, the analytic, arithmetic, and…
We give some remarks on some manifolds K3 surfaces, Complex projective spaces, real projective space and Torus and the classification of two dimensional Riemannian surfaces, Green functions and the Stokes formula. We also, talk about traces…
In this work we derive braid group representations and Stokes matrices for Liouville conformal blocks with one irregular operator. By employing the Coulomb gas formalism, the corresponding conformal blocks can be interpreted as…

Special functions have always played a central role in physics and in mathematics, arising as solutions of particular differential equations, or integrals, during the study of particular important physical models and theories in Quantum…
We present a review of the method we have elaborated to compute the correlation functions of the XXZ spin-1/2 Heisenberg chain. This method is based on the resolution of the quantum inverse scattering problem in the algebraic Bethe Ansatz…
