In this paper we discuss dilaton shifts (Euler counterterms) arising in decomposition of two-dimensional quantum field theories with higher-form symmetries. These take a universal form, reflecting underlying (noninvertible, quantum)…
We generalize the notion of quasielliptic curves, which have infinitesimal symmetries and exist only in characteristic two and three, to a remarkable hierarchy of regular curves having infinitesimal symmetries, defined in all…
Unfortunately, some proofs in the first version of this paper were incorrect. In this revised version, some minor gaps are fixed, one serious mistake found. The main theorem is now claimed only under a restrictive technical assumption. This…
For a cyclic group $G$ acting on a smooth variety $X$ with only one character occurring in the $G$-equivariant decomposition of the normal bundle of the fixed point locus, we study the derived categories of the orbifold $[X/G]$ and the…
We formulate a version of the integral Hodge conjecture for categories, prove the conjecture for two-dimensional Calabi-Yau categories which are suitably deformation equivalent to the derived category of a K3 or abelian surface, and use…
We prove two lemmata about Schubert calculus on generalized flag manifolds G/B, and in the case of the ordinary flag manifold GL_n/B we interpret them combinatorially in terms of descents, and geometrically in terms of missing subspaces.…
We consider pseudo-Riemannian generalizations of Osserman, Clifford, and the duality principle properties for algebraic curvature tensors and investigate relations between them. We introduce quasi-Clifford curvature tensors using a…
Let $C$ be an irreducible smooth complex projective curve of genus $g$, with $g_C \geqslant 2$. Let $E$ be a vector bundle on $C$ of rank $r$, with $r\geqslant 2$. Let $\mc Q:=\mc Q(E,\,d)$ be the Quot Scheme parameterizing torsion…
We review an approach which aims at studying discrete (pseudo-)manifolds in dimension $d\geq 2$ and called random tensor models. More specifically, we insist on generalizing the two-dimensional notion of $p$-angulations to higher…
The generalized Andrews-Curtis Conjecture expects that finite PLCW 2-complexes which are simple-homotopy equivalent, can be 3-deformed into each other. If in addition subcomplexes are required to be kept fix during the deformation, this is…
Using the technique of categorical absorption of singularities we prove that the nontrivial components of the derived categories of del Pezzo threefolds of degree $d \in \{2,3,4,5\}$ and crepant categorical resolutions of the nontrivial…
The Abel-Jacobi map of the family of elliptic quintics lying on a general cubic threefold is studied. It is proved that it factors through a moduli component of stable rank 2 vector bundles on the cubic threefold with Chern numbers c_1=0,…
We show that Generic Green's conjecture holds for generic binary curves, through a detailed analysis of the family of scrolls containing fixed rational normal curves.
For a projective $2n$-dimensional irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold $Y$ of generalized Kummer deformation type and $j$ the smallest prime number dividing $n+1$, we prove the Lefschetz standard conjectures in degrees…
In this paper, we study non-commutative projective schemes whose associated non-commutative graded algebras are finite over their centers. We study their moduli spaces of stable sheaves, and construct a symmetric obstruction theory in the…
We present some new results on the cohomology of a large scope of SL\_2-groups in degrees above the virtual cohomological dimension; yielding some partial positive results for the Quillen conjecture in rank one. We combine these results…
We study the confluence property of abstract rewriting systems internal to cubical categories. We introduce cubical contractions, a higher-dimensional generalisation of reductions to normal forms, and employ them to construct cubical…
We prove a normal form theorem for Poisson structures around Poisson transversals (also called cosymplectic submanifolds), which simultaneously generalizes Weinstein's symplectic neighborhood theorem from symplectic geometry and Weinstein's…
Starting from Joyce's generalised Kummer construction, we exhibit non-trivial families of $\mathrm{G}_2$-manifolds over the two dimensional sphere by resolving singularities with a twisted family of Eguchi-Hanson spaces. We establish that…
We construct a fully equivariant correspondence between Gromov-Witten and stable pairs descendent theories for toric 3-folds X. Our method uses geometric constraints on descendents, A_n surfaces, and the topological vertex. The rationality…
