We are concerned with super-Liouville equations on the two sphere, which have variational structure with a strongly-indefinite functional. We prove the existence of non-trivial solutions by combining the use of Nehari manifolds, balancing…
Higher dimensional Euclidean Liouville conformal field theories (LCFTs) consist of a log-correlated real scalar field with a background charge and an exponential potential. We analyse the LCFT on a four-dimensional manifold with a boundary.…
In this paper, usual Sturm-Liouville problems are extended for symmetric functions so that the corresponding solutions preserve the orthogonality property. Two basic examples, which are special cases of a generalized Sturm-Liouville…
We construct a Liouville superconformal field theory with eight real supercharges in four dimensions. The Liouville superfield is an $\mathcal{N}=2$ chiral superfield with sixteen bosonic and sixteen fermionic component fields. Its lowest…
Liouville conformal field theory describes a random geometry that fluctuates around a deterministic one: the unique solution of the problem of finding, within a given conformal class, a Riemannian metric with prescribed scalar and geodesic…
We present a set of equations for a 4D Killing spinor which guarantees the Seiberg-Witten theories on a curved background to be supersymmetric. The equations involve an SU(2) gauge field and some auxiliary fields in addition to the metric.…
Supersymmetric extensions of Hamilton-Jacobi separable Liouville mechanical systems with two degrees of freedom are defined. It is shown that supersymmetry can be implemented in this type of systems in two independent ways. The structure of…
In this paper, we develop the blow-up analysis and establish the energy quantization for solutions to super-Liouville type equations on Riemann surfaces with conical singularities at the boundary. In other problems in geometric analysis,…
We consider weighted parallel spinors in Lorentzian Weyl geometry in arbitrary dimensions, choosing the weight such that the integrability condition for the existence of such a spinor, implies the geometry to be Einstein-Weyl. We then use…
In this note, we give a unified rigorous construction for the Liouville conformal field theory on compact Riemann surface with boundaries for $\gamma\in (0,2]$ and prove a certain type of Markov property. We also prove some fusion-type…
Motivated by problems arising in the study of N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories we introduce and study irregular singularities in two-dimensional conformal field theory, here Liouville theory. Irregular singularities are associated to…
Harmonic maps from Riemann surfaces arise from a conformally invariant variational problem. Therefore, on one hand, they are intimately connected with moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces, and on the other hand, because the conformal group is…
We study the Liouville equation $\triangle u+e^{2u} =0$ in a Riemannian surface $(M, g)$ with nonnegative $Ricci$ curvature. Under some asymptotic lower bound assumptions, we classify all the solutions to this equation, meanwhile we obtain…
Based on the Euler-Lagrange cohomology groups $H_{EL}^{(2k-1)}({\cal M}^{2n}) (1 \leqslant k\leqslant n)$ on symplectic manifold $({\cal M}^{2n}, \omega)$, their properties and a kind of classification of vector fields on the manifold, we…

We investigate the 1/8 BPS geometries with SU(2) x U(1) x SO(4) x R symmetry in IIB supergravity which were classified by Gava et al, (hep-th/0611065). It is desirable to have a complete set of differential equations imposed on the…
