This is an expository article which describes one approach to the construction and classification of harmonic tori "of finite type", namely, via their ring of polynomial Killing fields. To keep the discussion focussed, the first section is…
It is shown that the higher order supersymmetric partners of the harmonic oscillator Hamiltonian provide the simplest non-trivial realizations of the polynomial Heisenberg algebras. A linearized version of the corresponding annihilation and…
Equivalences between conformal foliations on Euclidean $3$-space, Hermitian structures on Euclidean $4$-space, shear-free ray congruences on Minkowski $4$-space, and holomorphic foliations on complex $4$-space are explained geometrically…
In this paper we want to introduce two commutative diagrams for weight $n$=2 and $n$=3 with six faces on each. These diagrams describe the relations between Grassmannian complex in geometric configurations, Bloch-Suslin's complex for weight…
The existence of bi-Hamiltonian structures for the rational Harmonic Oscillator (non-central harmonic oscillator with rational ratio of frequencies) is analyzed by making use of the geometric theory of symmetries. We prove that these…
The energy spectra of two different quantum systems are paired through supersymmetric algorithms. One of the systems is Hermitian and the other is characterized by a complex-valued potential, both of them with only real eigenvalues in their…
Integrable flows on the Grassmannians Gr(N-1,N+1) are defined by the requirement of closedness of the differential N-1 forms $\Omega_{N-1}$ of rank N-1 naturally associated with Gr(N-1,N+1). Gauge-invariant parts of these flows, given by…
Properties of Hermitian forms are used to investigate several natural questions from CR Geometry. To each Hermitian symmetric polynomial we assign a Hermitian form. We study how the signature pairs of two Hermitian forms behave under the…
We introduce the notion of Riemannian twistorial structure and we show that it provides new natural constructions of harmonic maps.
We use filtrations of the Grassmannian model to produce explicit algebraic formulae for all harmonic maps of finite uniton number from a Riemann surface, and so all harmonic maps from the 2-sphere, to the unitary group for a general class…
Decorated and augmented nonlinear Grassmannians can be used to parametrize coadjoint orbits of classical diffeomorphism groups. We provide a general framework for decoration and augmentation functors that facilitates the construction of a…
We classify biharmonic and harmonic homomorphisms $f:(G,g_1)\rightarrow(G,g_2)$ where $G$ is a connected and simply connected three-dimensional unimodular Lie group and $g_1$ and $g_2$ are left invariant Riemannian metrics.
In this paper, we discuss the associated family of harmonic maps $\mathcal{F}: M \rightarrow G/K$ from a Riemann surface $M$ into inner symmetric spaces of compact or non-compact type which are either algebraic or totally symmetric. These…
We consider the construction of operator bases for massless, relativistic quantum field theories, and show this is equivalent to obtaining the harmonic modes of a physical manifold (the kinematic Grassmannian), upon which observables have…
We show that each classical pseudoriemann symmetric space G/H can be realized as space of pairs of complementary subspaces in a linear space. For each classical symmetric space we construct an open embedding to a grassmannian or to a…
For quadratic spaces which represent 1 there is a characterization of hermitian compositions in the language of algebras-with-involutions using the even Clifford algebra. We extend this notion to define a generalized composition based on…
One constructs the parity-time symmetric solitons in the complex KP Equation using the totally non-negative Grassmannian. We obtain that every element in the totally non-negative orthogonal Grassmannian corresponds to a parity-time…
The space forms, the complex hyperbolic spaces and the quaternionic hyperbolic spaces are characterized as the harmonic manifolds with specific radial eigenfunctions of the Laplacian.
We prove a four dimensional version of the Bernstein Theorem, with complex polynomials being replaced by quaternionic polynomials. We deduce from the theorem a quaternionic Bernstein's inequality and give a formulation of this last result…
Denote by $\mathbb G(k,n)$ the Grassmannian of linear subspaces of dimension $k$ in $\mathbb P^n$. We show that if $n>m$ then every morphism $\varphi: \mathbb G(k,n) \to \mathbb G(l,m)$ is constant.
