We study biharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds with finite energy and finite bi-energy. We show that if the domain is complete and the target of non-positive curvature, then such a map is harmonic. We then give applications to…
We review the construction of the Dirac operator and its properties in Riemannian geometry and show how the asymptotic expansion of the trace of the heat kernel determines the spectral invariants of the Dirac operator and its index. We also…

There has been many studies on Z2 harmonic functions, differential forms or spinors recently. This paper focuses on a very special and relatively simple aspect: Z2 harmonic functions on $\mathbb{R}^2$ with point singularities.
Dirac semimetals, with their protected Dirac points, present an ideal platform for realizing intrinsic topological superconductivity. In this work, we investigate superconductivity in a two-dimensional, square-lattice nonsymmorphic Dirac…
The Dirac operator for a manifold Q, and its chirality operator when Q is even dimensional, have a central role in noncommutative geometry. We systematically develop the theory of this operator when Q=G/H, where G and H are compact…
The two-dimensional Dirac Hamiltonian with equal scalar and vector potentials has been proved commuting with the deformed orbital angular momentum $L$. When the potential takes the Coulomb form, the system has an SO(3) symmetry, and…
On non-K\"ahler manifolds the notion of harmonic maps is modified to that of Hermitian harmonic maps in order to be compatible with the complex structure. The resulting semilinear elliptic system is {\it not} in divergence form. The case of…
Several dynamical symmetries of the Dirac Hamiltonian are reviewed in a systematic manner and the conditions under which such symmetries hold. These include relativistic spin and orbital angular momentum symmetries, SO(4)\times…
Let $D^2 \subset C$ be a closed two-dimensional disk and $f:D^2 \to R$ be a continuous function such that a restriction of $f$ to $\partial D^2$ is a continuous function with a finite number of local extrema and $f$ has a finite number of…
We investigated relations among green functions defined in the context of an alternative strategy for coping with the divergences, also called Implicit Regularization. Our targets are fermionic amplitudes in even space-time dimensions,…
We study a conformally invariant equation involving the Dirac operator and a non-linearity of convolution type. This non-linearity is inspired from the conformal Einstein-Dirac problem in dimension 4. We first investigate the compactness,…
We investigate the relationship between conformal and spin structure on lorentzian manifolds and see how their compatibility influences the formulation of rigid supersymmetric field theories. In dimensions three, four, six and ten, we show…
After recalling Snyder's idea of using vector fields over a smooth manifold as `coordinates on a noncommutative space', we discuss a two dimensional toy-model whose `dual' noncommutative coordinates form a Lie algebra: this is the well…
