Integrable flows on the Grassmannians Gr(N-1,N+1) are defined by the requirement of closedness of the differential N-1 forms $\Omega_{N-1}$ of rank N-1 naturally associated with Gr(N-1,N+1). Gauge-invariant parts of these flows, given by…
We study the secant variety of the spinor variety, focusing on its equations of degree three and four. We show that in type $D_n$, cubic equations exist if and only if $n\ge 9$. In general the ideal has generators in degrees at least three…
Let $k \subset K$ be an extension of fields, and let $A \subset M_{n}(K)$ be a $k$-algebra. We study parameter spaces of $m$-dimensional subspaces of $K^{n}$ which are invariant under $A$. The space $\mathbb{F}_{A}(m,n)$, whose $R$-rational…
We figure out the explicit expression for the trace of the field equations associated to generic higher derivative theories of gravity endowed with Lagrangians depending upon the metric and its Riemann tensor, together with arbitrary order…
Non-trivial outer algebra automorphisms may be utilized in $\lambda$-deformations of (gauged) WZW models thus providing an efficient way to construct new integrable models. We provide two such integrable deformations of the exact coset CFT…
In this first of a series of articles on standard extension algebras we study standard perverse sheaves on varieties with $\mathbb{G}_m$-actions. Based on Braden's hyperbolic localisation, we describe their extension algebra geometrically…
We show how three-dimensional superconformal theories for any number N <= 8 of supersymmetries can be obtained by taking a conformal limit of the corresponding three-dimensional gauged supergravity models. The superconformal theories are…
We introduce new hybridizable discontinuous Galerkin (HDG) methods for solving the two-dimensional vector Laplacian equation under three types of boundary conditions: electric, magnetic, and Dirichlet. The method is formulated on a…
We investigate dispersionless integrable systems in 3D associated with fourfolds in the Grassmannian Gr(3,5). Such systems appear in numerous applications in continuum mechanics, general relativity and differential geometry, and include…
The present study introduces and investigates a new type of equation which is called Grassmann integral equation in analogy to integral equations studied in real analysis. A Grassmann integral equation is an equation which involves…
In this work we construct a sequence of Riemannian metrics on the three-sphere with scalar curvature greater than or equal to $6$ and arbitrarily large widths. Our procedure is based on the connected sum construction of positive scalar…
We revisit the classical aspects of $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric sigma models with Hermitian symmetric target spaces, using the so-called Gross-Neveu (first-order GLSM) formalism. We reformulate these models for complex Grassmannians…
The goal of this short note is to study the secant varieties of the triple Segre product of type (1,a,b) by means of the standard tools of combinatorial commutative algebra. We reprove and extend to arbitrary characteristic results of…
We show that the G{\" o}del type Metrics in three dimensions with arbitrary two dimensional background space satisfy the Einstein-perfect fluid field equations. There exists only one first order partial differential equation satisfied by…
The affine Grassmannian of $SL_n$ admits an embedding into the Sato Grassmannian, which further admits a Pl\"ucker embedding into the projectivization of Fermion Fock space. Kreiman, Lakshmibai, Magyar, and Weyman describe the linear part…
We study subsets of Grassmann varieties G(l,m) over a field F, such that these subsets are unions of Schubert cycles, with respect to a fixed flag. We study the linear spans of, and in case of positive characteristic, the number of points…
The Grassmannian is an important object in Algebraic Geometry. One of the many techniques used to study the Grassmannian is to build a vector space from its points in the projective embedding and study the properties of the resulting linear…
A consistent gauging of maximal supergravity requires that the T-tensor transforms according to a specific representation of the duality group. The analysis of viable gaugings is thus amenable to group-theoretical analysis, which we explain…
Many classes of projective algebraic varieties can be studied in terms of graded rings. Gorenstein graded rings in small codimension have been studied recently from an algebraic point of view, but the geometric meaning of the resulting…
The hierarchy of conformally invariant k-th powers of the Laplacian acting on a scalar field with scaling dimensions $\Delta_{(k)}=k-d/2$, k=1,2,3 as obtained in the recent work [1] is rederived using the Fefferman-Graham d+2 dimensional…
