We investigate a relation of the contravariant geometry to the emergent gravity from noncommutative gauge theories. We give a refined formulation of the contravariant gravity and provide solutions to the contravariant Einstein equation. We…
Two dimensional classical integrable systems and different integrable deformations for them are derived from phase space realizations of classical $sl(2)$ Poisson coalgebras and their $q-$deformed analogues. Generalizations of Morse,…
We extend many known results for harmonic maps from the 2-sphere into a Grassmannian to harmonic maps of finite uniton number from an arbitrary Riemann surface. Our method relies on a new theory of nilpotent cycles arising from the diagrams…
Let G be a compact simple Lie group and the O the minimal nilpotent orbit in g^C. We determine all G-invariant K\"ahler potentials for hyperK\"ahler metrics compatible with the KKS complex symplectic form on O.
Kato developed an exotic Deligne-Langlands correspondence using a geometric model for the multiparameter affine Hecke algebra of type C, based on his exotic nilpotent cone. Achar-Henderson and Springer showed that this exotic nilpotent is…
In the context of affine complex Kac-Moody algebras, we define the meaning of nilpotent orbits under the adjoint action of the maximal Kac-Moody group. We also give a parameterization of nilpotent orbits of $\mathfrak{sl}_n^{(1)}(\mathbb…
For bordered surfaces S, we develop a complete parallel between the geometry of the combinatorial Teichm\"uller space $T_S^{comb}$ equipped with Kontsevich symplectic form $\omega_K$, and then the usual Weil-Petersson geometry of…
The paper is devoted to the study of geodesic orbit Riemannian metrics on nilpotent Lie groups. The main result is the construction of continuous families of pairwise non-isomorphic connected and simply connected nilpotent Lie groups, every…
Let $B$ be a nilpotent matrix and suppose that its Jordan canonical form is determined by a partition $\lambda$. Then it is known that its nilpotent commutator $N_B$ is an irreducible variety and that there is a unique partition $\mu$ such…
This work deals with relations between a bounded cohomological invariant and the geometry of Hermitian symmetric spaces of noncompact type. The invariant, obtained from the K\"ahler class, is used to define and characterize a special class…
We determine the equivariant real structures on nilpotent orbits and the normalizations of their closures for the adjoint action of a complex semisimple algebraic group on its Lie algebra.
We prove the Strominger--Yau--Zaslow and topological mirror symmetries for parabolic Hitchin systems of types B and C. In contrast to type A, a geometric reinterpretation of Springer duality is necessary. Furthermore, unlike Hitchin's…
For an irreducible smooth representation of a connected reductive $p$-adic group, two important associated invariants are the wavefront set and the (partly conjectural) Langlands parameter. While a wavefront set consists of $p$-adic…
The nilpotent cone of a simple Lie algebra is partitioned into locally closed subvarieties called special pieces, each containing exactly one special orbit. Lusztig conjectured that each special piece is the quotient of some smooth variety…
In this paper, starting from the common foundation of Connes' noncommutative geometry (NCG) [1,2,3,4], various possible alternatives in the formulation of a theory of gravity in noncommutative spacetime are discussed in detail. The…
The aim of this memoir for "Habilitation \`a Diriger des Recherches" is to present quantum geometric and algebraic aspects of supersymmetric gauge theory, which emerge from non-perturbative nature of the vacuum structure induced by…
We establish new results and introduce new methods in the theory of measurable orbit equivalence, using bounded cohomology of group representations. Our rigidity statements hold for a wide (uncountable) class of groups arising from negative…
Given a complex projective algebraic variety, write H(X) for its cohomology with complex coefficients and IH(X) for its Intersection cohomology. We first show that, under some fairly general conditions, the canonical map H(X)\to IH(X) is…
We consider Reeb flows on the tight $3$-sphere admitting a pair of closed orbits forming a Hopf link. If the rotation numbers associated to the transverse linearized dynamics at these orbits fail to satisfy a certain resonance condition…
The hodograph of the Kepler-Coulomb problem, that is, the path traced by its velocity vector, is shown to be a circle and then it is used to investigate other properties of the motion. We obtain the configuration space orbits of the problem…
