Two classes of models of driven disordered systems that exhibit history-dependent dynamics are discussed. The first class incorporates local inertia in the dynamics via nonmonotonic stress transfer between adjacent degrees of freedom. The…
We determine the algebraic and transcendental lattices of a general cubic fourfold with a symplectic automorphism of prime order. We prove that cubic fourfolds admitting a symplectic automorphism of order at least three are rational, and we…
We have identified some necessary conditions for the existence of rigid sphere designs. In particular, we have successfully resolved the conjecture proposed by [Ban87]; Given fixed positive integers t and d, we show that there exist only…
We investigate several models described by real scalar fields, searching for topological defects. Some models are described by a single field, and support one or two topological sectors, and others are two-field models, which support…
Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>0 and let Sp(2m) be the symplectic group of rank m over K. The main theorem of this article gives the character of the rational simple Sp(2m)-modules with fundamental highest weight…
We study conical defect geometries in the SL(N) Chern-Simons formulation of higher spin gauge theories in AdS_3. We argue that (for N\geq 4) there are special values of the deficit angle for which these geometries are actually smooth…
In this paper we study symplectic involutions and quadratic pairs that become hyperbolic over the function field of a conic. In particular, we classify them in degree 4 and deduce results on 5 dimensional minimal quadratic forms, thus…
We define 2-calibrated structures, which are analogs of symplectic structures in odd dimensions. We show the existence of differential topological constructions compatible with the structure.
Previously work of the author with Meier and Starkston showed that every closed symplectic manifold $(X,\omega)$ with a rational symplectic form admits a trisection compatible with the symplectic topology. In this paper, we describe the…
We show that many observable properties of high temperature superconductors can be obtained in the frameworks of one-dimensional self-consistent model with included superconducting correlations. Analytical solutions for spin, charge and…
Block designs are combinatorial structures in which each pair of a set of varieties appears together in a fixed number of blocks. Complete graphs are graphs in which every pair of vertices are adjacent. We present some new constructions of…
Symplectic resolutions are an exciting new frontier of research in representation theory. One of the most fascinating aspects of this study is symplectic duality: the observation that these resolutions come in pairs with matching…
We review the notion of symplectic duality earlier introduced in the context of topological recursion. We show that the transformation of symplectic duality can be expressed as a composition of $x-y$ dualities in a broader context of log…
We consider the canonical contact structures on links of rational surface singularities with reduced fundamental cycle. These singularities can be characterized by their dual resolution graphs: the graph is a tree, and the weight of each…
Starting with a first order in derivatives self-dual model which describes a massive spin-4 mode in $D=2+1$ dimensions, we have obtained a sequence of three more new descriptions, which then give us an interconnected self-dual chain $SD(i)$…
We study topological properties of automorphisms of 4-dimensional torus generated by integer symplectic matrices. The main classifying element is the structure of the topology of a foliation generated by unstable leaves of the automorphism.…
We will invest quite some computer power to find double octic threefolds that are connected to weight four modular forms.
This paper investigates the geometric structures and properties of 8-dimensional manifolds with Spin(7)-holonomy. We focus on the characterization and implications of 4-planes within these manifolds, which are endowed with an almost…
In this paper we characterize the definiteness of the discrete symplectic system, study a nonhomogeneous discrete symplectic system, and introduce the minimal and maximal linear relations associated with these systems. Fundamental…
We observe that numerous symplectic resolutions can be expressed as intersections of twisted cotangent bundles. Additionally, their dual symplectic resolutions can be derived from intersections of dual twisted cotangent bundles. We…
