We generalize the work of Ohta on the congruence modules attached to elliptic Eisenstein series to the setting of Hilbert modular forms. Our work involves three parts. In the first part, we construct Eisenstein series adelically and compute…
The first half of this paper is largely expository, wherein we present a systematic combinatorial approach to the theory of polynomial (semi)invariants and multilinear invariants of several vectors and covectors, for the classical groups.…
Various equivariant intersection numbers on Hilbert schemes of points on the affine plane are computed, some of which are organized into tau-functions of 2-Toda hierarchies. A correspondence between the equivariant intersection on Hilbert…
We prove the famous Faber intersection number conjecture and other more general results by using a recursion formula of $n$-point functions for intersection numbers on moduli spaces of curves. We also present some vanishing properties of…
A hypertoric variety is a quaternionic analogue of a toric variety. Just as the topology of toric varieties is closely related to the combinatorics of polytopes, the topology of hypertoric varieties interacts richly with the combinatorics…
The combinatorial description via ribbon graphs of the moduli space of Riemann surfaces makes it possible to define combinatorial cycles in a natural way. Witten and Kontsevich first conjectured that these classes are polynomials in the…
We propose a conjectural formula expressing the generating series of some Hodge integrals in terms of representation theory of Kac-Moody algebras. Such generating series appear in calculations of Gromov-Witten invariants by localization…
We adapt the hypercube decompositions introduced by Blundell-Buesing-Davies-Veli\v{c}kovi\'{c}-Williamson to prove the Combinatorial Invariance Conjecture for Kazhdan-Lusztig $R$-polynomials in the case of elementary intervals in $S_n$.…
As a sequel to our recent work on Casselman--Shahidi's holomorphicity conjecture on half-normalized intertwining operators for quasi-split classical groups, we modify our method, based on a lemma of Heiermann--Opdam, to prove certain cases…
We propose a geometric and categorical approach to the Hodge Conjecture for all smooth projective complex varieties. By embedding any such variety into a flat family with general fibers smooth complete intersections, we prove the conjecture…
We establish the Airy curve case of a conjecture of Gukov and Su{\l}kowski by reducing to Dijkgraaf-Verlinde-Verlinde Virasoro constraints satisfied by the intersection numbers on moduli spaces of algebraic curves.
We review progress on the generalized Witten conjecture and some of its major ingredients. This conjecture states that certain intersection numbers on the moduli space of higher spin curves assemble into the logarithm of the tau function of…
We identify a combinatorial quantity (the alternating sum of the h-vector) defined for any simple polytope as the signature of a toric variety. This quantity was introduced by Charney and Davis in their work, which in particular showed that…
We describe the hyperplane sections of the Severi variety of curves in $E \times \mathbb{P}^1$ in a similar fashion to Caporaso-Harris' seminal work. From this description we almost get a recursive formula for the Severi degrees (we get the…
We derive explicit formulae for the generating series of mixed Grothendieck dessins d'enfant/monotone/simple Hurwitz numbers, via the semi-infinite wedge formalism. This reveals the strong piecewise polynomiality in the sense of…
We consider graded Cartan matrices of the symmetric groups and the Iwahori-Hecke algebras of type A, which have entries in the ring $\mathbb Z[v,v^{-1}]$. These matrices may also be interpreted as Gram matrices of the Shapovalov form on…
This paper studies intersection theory on the compactified moduli space M(n,d) of holomorphic bundles of rank n and degree d over a fixed compact Riemann surface of genus g > 1 where n and d may have common factors. Because of the presence…
We give a new proof for the parabolic Verlinde formula in all ranks based on a comparison of wall-crossings in Geometric Invariant Theory and certain iterated residue functionals. On the way, we develop a tautological variant of Hecke…
We study intersection cohomology of character varieties for punctured Riemann surfaces with prescribed monodromies around the punctures. Relying on previous result from Mellit for semisimple monodromies we compute the intersection…
We explore the applications of Lorentzian polynomials to the fields of algebraic geometry, analytic geometry and convex geometry. In particular, we establish a series of intersection theoretic inequalities, which we call rKT property, with…
