We consider anomaly cancellation for $SU(N)\times SU(2)\times U(1)$ gauge theories where the left-handed chiral multiplets are in higher $SU(2)$ representations. In particular, if the left-handed quarks and leptons transform under the…
We construct exceptional field theory for the duality group SL(3)$\times$SL(2). The theory is defined on a space with 8 `external' coordinates and 6 `internal' coordinates in the $(3,2)$ fundamental representation, leading to a…
Given a complex curve C of genus 2, there is a well-known relationship between the moduli space of rank 3 semistable bundles on C and a cubic hypersurface known as the Coble cubic. Some of the aspects of this is known to be related to the…
The Hamiltonians of $SU(2)$ and $SU(3)$ gauge theories in 3+1 dimensions can be expressed in terms of gauge invariant spatial geometric variables, i.e., metrics, connections and curvature tensors which are simple local functions of the…
Previous work established a connection between the geometric invariant theory of the third exterior power of a 9-dimensional complex vector space and the moduli space of genus 2 curves with some additional data. We generalize this…
We consider deformations of left-invariant complex structures on simply connected semisimple compact Lie groups which are a priori non-invariant. Computing their cohomologies, we show that they are not actually biholomorphic to…
To any Hamiltonian action of a reductive algebraic group $G$ on a smooth irreducible symplectic variety $X$ we associate certain combinatorial invariants: Cartan space, Weyl group, weight and root lattices. For cotangent bundles our…
Let $C\to M$ be the bundle of connections of a principal bundle on $M$. The solutions to Hamilton-Cartan equations for a gauge-invariant Lagrangian density $\Lambda $ on $C$ satisfying a weak condition of regularity, are shown to admit an…
In this paper we continue our study of the geometric properties of full symmetric Toda systems from \cite{CSS14,CSS17,CSS19}. Namely we describe here a simple geometric construction of a commutative family of vector fields on compact…
We consider two different $\text{SU}(2)^2$-invariant cohomogeneity one manifolds, one non-compact $M=\mathbb{R}^4 \times S^3$ and one compact $M=S^4 \times S^3$, and study the existence of coclosed $\text{SU}(2)^2$-invariant…
This paper considers a family of finite dimensional simple Lie superalgebras of Cartan type over a field of characteristic $p>3$, the so-called special odd contact superalgebras. First, the spanning sets are determined for the Lie…
In this paper we classify invariant noncommutative connections in the framework of the algebra of endomorphisms of a complex vector bundle. It has been proven previously that this noncommutative algebra generalizes in a natural way the…
We study $GL(2)$-structures on differential manifolds. The structures play a fundamental role in the geometric theory of ordinary differential equations. We prove that any $GL(2)$-structure on an even dimensional manifold give rise to a…
We provide techniques for studying the nonnegatively curved left-invariant metrics on a compact Lie group. For "straight" paths of left-invariant metrics starting at bi-invariant metrics and ending at nonnegatively curved metrics, we deduce…
In this review we present some of the fundamental mathematical structures which permit to define noncommutative gauge field theories. In particular, we emphasize the theory of noncommutative connections, with the notions of curvatures and…
We study the topological structure of the quotient of $SU(3)\times SU(3)$ by diagonal conjugation. This is the simplest nontrivial example for the classical reduced configuration space of chromodynamics on a spatial lattice in the…
On a real analytic 5-dimensional CR-generic submanifold M^5 in C^4 of codimension 3, hence of CR dimension 1, which enjoys the generically satisfied nondegeneracy condition that Lie brackets up to length 3 of T^{1,0}M generate CTM, a…
We produce group structures on certain sets of topological vector bundles of fixed rank. In particular, we put a group structure on complex rank $2$ bundles on $\mathbb{C}P^3$ with fixed first Chern class. We show that this binary operation…
We investigate the integrals of motion of general conformal mechanical systems with and without confining harmonic potential as well as of the related angular subsystems, by employing the SL(2,R) algebra and its representations. In…
This is the last part of a series of articles on a family of geometric structures (PACS-structures) which all have an underlying almost conformally symplectic structure. While the first part of the series was devoted to the general study of…
