Work of Hofer--Wysocki--Zehnder has shown that many spaces of pseudoholomorphic curves that arise when studying symplectic manifolds may be described as the zero set of a polyfold Fredholm section. This framework has many analytic…
We prove rigidity results describing contextually-constrained maps defined on Grassmannians and manifolds of ordered independent line tuples in finite-dimensional vector or Hilbert spaces. One statement in the spirit of the Fundamental…
Formulations of some Grassmann-valued systems of ordinary differential equations invariant under (infinitesimal) supersymmetry transformations, including $N$-superspace extended types, are reviewed and discussed, with use of superfields.…
Given a holomorphic vector bundle $E$ over a compact Riemann surface $M$, and an open set $D$ in $M$, we prove that the Bergman space of holomorphic sections of the restriction of $E$ to $D$ must either coincide with the space of global…
In some recent papers, the relations existing between the metric properties of Randers spaces and the conformal geometry of stationary Lorentzian manifolds were discovered and investigated. In this note, we focus on the equality between the…
We study the moduli space of self-dual instantons on $\mathbb{C}P^2$. These are described by an ADHM-like construction which allows to compute the Hilbert series of the moduli space. The latter has been found to be blind to certain compact…
We provide a thorough construction of a system of compatible determinant line bundles over spaces of Fredholm operators, fully verify that this system satisfies a number of important properties, and include explicit formulas for all…
Uniform covers with a finite-dimensional nerve are rare (i.e., do not form a cofinal family) in many separable metric spaces of interest. To get hold on uniform homotopy properties of these spaces, a reasonably behaved notion of an…
We study grassmannians associated with a linear space with a nondegenerate hermitian form. The geometry of these grassmannians allows us to explain the relation between a (pseudo-)riemannian projective geometry and the conformal structure…
In this paper we develop the theory of finite-type invariants for homologically nontrivial 3-manifolds. We construct an infinite-dimensional affine space with a hypersurface in it corresponding to manifolds with Morse singularities.…
Two compactifications of the space of holomorphic maps of fixed degree from a compact Riemann surface to a Grassmannian are studied. It is shown that the Uhlenbeck compactification has the structure of a projective scheme and is dominated…
Let $\Lambda$ be a finite dimensional algebra over an algebraically closed field. Criteria are given which characterize existence of a fine or coarse moduli space classifying, up to isomorphism, the representations of $\Lambda$ with fixed…
Let U be a real form of a complex semisimple Lie group, and tau, sigma, a pair of commuting involutions on U. This data corresponds to a reflective submanifold of a symmetric space, U/K. We define an associated integrable system, and…
Inspired by ideas from non-commutative geometry, unions of moduli spaces of linear control systems are identified as open subsets of infinite Grassmannians.
We survey a very general (nonlinear) Fredholm theory for a new class of ambient spaces, called polyfolds. This theory is being currently developed jointly with K. Wysocki and E. Zehnder. The basic feature of these new spaces is that in…
A nonlocal and nonlinear theory of hadrons, equivalent to the color singlet sector two dimensional QCD, is constructed. The phase space space of this theory is an infinite dimensional Grassmannian. The baryon number of QCD corresponds to a…
Attention is focused on antisymmetrized versions of quantum spaces that are of particular importance in physics, i.e. two-dimensional quantum plane, q-deformed Euclidean space in three or four dimensions as well as q-deformed Minkowski…
In this paper we consider Grassmannians in arbitrary characteristic. Generalizing Kapranov's well-known characteristic-zero results we construct dual exceptional collections on them (which are however not strong) as well as a tilting…
We present a framework to systematically address topological phases when finer partitionings of bands are taken into account, rather than only considering the two subspaces spanned by valence and conduction bands. Focusing on…
This paper determines the RO(G)-graded Eilenberg-MacLane cohomology of the real, infinite, equivariant Grassmannians in the case G=Z/2. Possible connections with motivic characteristic classes for quadratic bundles are briefly discussed.
