An enumerative invariant theory in Algebraic Geometry, Differential Geometry, or Representation Theory, is the study of invariants which 'count' $\tau$-(semi)stable objects $E$ with fixed topological invariants $[E]=\alpha$ in some…
In Einstein's general relativity, with its nonlinear field equations, the discoveries and analyzes of various specific explicit solutions made a great impact on understanding many of the unforeseen features of the theory. Some solutions…
In this presentation, I review physical principles behind a recently proposed \cite{smw-utr} Universal Theory of Relativity and speculate on the mathematical requirements implied by these physical principles. Some unresolved issues will…
Many of the technical complications associated with the general theory of relativity ultimately stem from the nonlinearity of Einstein's equation. It is shown here that an appropriate choice of dynamical variables may be used to eliminate…
We show the linking-type result which allows us to study strongly indefinite problems with sign-changing nonlinearities. We apply the abstract theory to the singular Schr\"{o}dinger equation $$ -\Delta u + V(x)u + \frac{a}{r^2} u = f(u) -…
The purpose of this essay is to trace the historical development of geometry while focusing on how we acquired mathematical tools for describing the "shape of the universe." More specifically, our aim is to consider, without a claim to…
This is a survey of recent progress in the structure and classification theory of nuclear C*-algebras. In particular, I outline how the Universal Coefficient Theorem ensures a positive answer to the quasidiagonality question in the presence…
We give a uniform proof of a significant part of the Cachazo-Douglas-Seiberg-Witten conjecture by using topology and geometry of infinite Grassmannians.
It has been shown that there is a sequential embedding structure in a $w_N$\ string theory based on a linearized $W_N$\ algebra. The $w_N$\ string theory is obtained as a special realization of the $w_{N+1}$\ string. The $w_{\infty}$\…
The introduction of strings into the study of the Riemann Hypothesis provides a visualization of the genesis of zeros for the Zeta function. The method is heuristic and when originally introduced suggested strong visual evidence for the…
The Riemann-Roch formula is a cornerstone in the classical theory of algebraic curves. Here we present a novel approach to its proof, by answering a question posed in 2007 by Matthew Baker and Serguei Norine.
We completely describe Wahlquist-Estabrook prolongation structures (coverings) dependent on u, u_x, u_{xx}, u_{xxx} for the Krichever-Novikov equation u_t=u_{xxx}-3u_{xx}^2/(2u_x)+p(u)/u_x+au_x in the case when the polynomial…
Various algebraic structures in geometry and group theory have appeared to be governed by certain universal rings. Examples include: the cohomology rings of Hilbert schemes of points on projective surfaces and quasi-projective surfaces; the…
We argue that in the general relativistic calculation of planetary orbits, the choice of a reference frame which is an obligatory condition in the Newtonian approach is replaced by an appropriate boundary condition on the solution of…
We describe the non-minimal Standard Model, consisting of minimalistic extensions of the Standard Model, which for all we know is the theory of the universe, able to describe all of the universe from the beginning of time. Extensions…
Self-replication is central to all life, and yet how it dynamically emerges in physical, non-equilibrium systems remains poorly understood. Von Neumann's pioneering work in the 1940s and subsequent developments suggest a natural hypothesis:…
We show that the essentially algebraic theory of generalized algebraic theories, regarded as a category with finite limits, has a universal exponentiable arrow in the sense that any exponentiable arrow in any category with finite limits is…
We investigate Landau-Ginzburg string theory with the singular superpotential X^{-1} on arbitrary Riemann surfaces. This theory, which is a topological version of the c=1 string at the self-dual radius, is solved using results from…
String theory is accused by some of its critics to be a purely abstract mathematical discipline, having lost the contact to the simple yet deeply rooted questions which physics provided until the beginning of this century. We argue that, in…
We develop a formal group--theoretic framework for the Riemann zeta function by treating its Euler product as an element of the multiplicative formal group $\widehat{\mathbb{G}}_m$ and its logarithm as the associated formal group logarithm.…
