The paper is dedicated to the study of algebraic manifolds whose quantum cohomology or a part of it is a semisimple Frobenius manifold. Theorem 1.8.1 says, roughly speaking, that the sum of $(p,p)$--cohomology spaces is a maximal Frobenius…

This is an introduction to some of the analytic (or integrable systems) aspects of quantum cohomology which have attracted much attention during the last few years. The small quantum cohomology algebra, regarded as an example of a Frobenius…

Let g be a complex semisimple Lie algebra and let G' be the Langlands dual group. We give a description of the cohomology algebra of an arbitrary spherical Schubert variety in the loop Grassmannian for G' as a quotient of the form…

We study a class of commuting Markov kernels whose simplest element describes the movement of $k$ particles on a discrete circle of size $n$ conditioned to not intersect each other. Such Markov kernels are related to the quantum cohomology…

We study the quantum cohomology of (co)minuscule homogeneous varieties under a unified perspective. We show that three points Gromov-Witten invariants can always be interpreted as classical intersection numbers on auxiliary varieties. Our…

We prove a Chevalley formula for the equivariant quantum multiplication of two Schubert classes in the homogeneous variety X=G/P. As in the case when X is a Grassmannian, studied by the author in a previous paper, this formula implies an…

We prove that the quantum cohomology ring of any minuscule or cominuscule homogeneous space, once localized at the quantum parameter, has a non trivial involution mapping Schubert classes to multiples of Schubert classes. This can be stated…

Well defined quantum field theory (QFT) for the electroweak force including quantum electrodynamics (QED) and the weak force is obtained by considering natural unitary representations of a group $K\subset U(2,2)$, where $K$ is locally…

The maximal minors of a p by (m + p) matrix of univariate polynomials of degree n with indeterminate coefficients are themselves polynomials of degree np. The subalgebra generated by their coefficients is the coordinate ring of the quantum…

This paper is the $K$-theoretic analogue of a recent new proof, given by the first named author, of Peterson-Lam-Shimozono's theorem via Savelyev's generalization of Seidel representations. The outcome is a new proof of…

We construct the q-twisted cohomology associated with the q-multiplicative function of Jordan-Pochhammer type at |q|=1. In this framework, we prove the Heine's relations and a connection formula for the q-hypergeometric function of the…

We introduce a theory of finite polynomial cohomology with coefficients in this paper. We prove several basic properties and introduce an Abel-Jacobi map with coefficients. As applications, we use such a cohomology theory to study…

This work is devoted to the study of the foundations of quantum K-theory, a K-theoretic version of quantum cohomology theory. In particular, it gives a deformation of the ordinary K-ring K(X) of a smooth projective variety X, analogous to…

We study the Schubert calculus of the affine Grassmannian Gr of the symplectic group. The integral homology and cohomology rings of Gr are identified with dual Hopf algebras of symmetric functions, defined in terms of Schur's P and…

We create several families of bases for the symmetric polynomials. From these bases we prove that certain Schur symmetric polynomials form a basis for quotients of symmetric polynomials that generalize the cohomology and the quantum…

We give an account of well known calculations of the RO(Q)-graded coefficient rings of some of the most basic Q-equivariant cohomology theories, where Q is a group of order 2. One purpose is to advertise the effectiveness of the Tate…

We give a formula in terms of Young diagrams to calculate the minimum positive integer $d$ such that $q^d$ appears in the quantum product of two Schubert classes for the submaximal isotropic Grassmannians in Types B and C. We do this by…

The article is devoted to a quantum field theory explanation of the relationship (noticed some years ago by Gepner) between the Verlinde algebra of the group $U(k)$ at level $N-k$ and the cohomology of the Grassmannian. The argument…

We determine the two-point invariants of the equivariant quantum cohomology of the Hilbert scheme of points of surface resolutions associated to type A_n singularities. The operators encoding these invariants are expressed in terms of the…

We calculate the small quantum orbifold cohomology of arbitrary weighted projective spaces. We generalize Givental's heuristic argument, which relates small quantum cohomology to S^1-equivariant Floer cohomology of loop space, to weighted…
