Recently it has been noticed that many interesting combinatorial objects belong to a class of semigroups called left regular bands, and that random walks on these semigroups encode several well-known random walks. For example, the set of…
The mathematics of a 4-dimensional renormalizable generally covariant lagrangian model (with first order derivatives) is reviewed. The lorentzian CR manifolds are totally real submanifolds of 4(complex)-dimensional complex manifolds…
This is the first part of a series of papers. The whole series aims to develop the tools for the study of all almost Hermitian symmetric structures in a unified way. In particular, methods for the construction of invariant operators, their…
We revisit the reduction of type II supergravity on SU(3) structure manifolds, conjectured to lead to gauged N=2 supergravity in 4 dimensions. The reduction proceeds by expanding the invariant 2- and 3-forms of the SU(3) structure as well…
We introduce a multivariable Casson-Lin type invariant for links in $S^3$. This invariant is defined as a signed count of irreducible $\operatorname{SU}(2)$ representations of the link group with fixed meridional traces. For 2-component…
We use the theory of Cartan connections to analyze the geometrical structures underpinning the gauge-theoretical descriptions of the gravitational interaction. According to the theory of Cartan connections, the spin connection $\omega$ and…
Two-dimensional quadratic algebras are generalizations of Lie algebras that include the symmetry algebras of 2nd order superintegrable systems in 2 dimensions as special cases. The superintegrable systems are exactly solvable physical…
A scheme to perform the Cartan decomposition for the Lie algebra su(N) of arbitrary finite dimensions is introduced. The schme is based on two algebraic structures, the conjugate partition and the quotient algebra, that are easily generated…
In this paper we study left invariant CR structures on Lie groups which are compatible with geometric properties as Poisson and kahler properties.
The Lagrangian Sp(3) BRST symmetry for irreducible gauge theories is constructed in the framework of homological perturbation theory. The canonical generator of this extended symmetry is shown to exist. A gauge-fixing procedure specific to…
Let $M^3 \subset \mathbb{C}^2$ be a $\mathcal{C}^\omega$ Levi nondegenerate hypersurface. In the literature, Cartan-Moser chains are detected from rather advanced considerations: either from the construction of a Cartan connection…
Integral formulae for form factors of a large family of charged local operators in SU(2) invariant Thirring model are given extending Smirnov's construction of form factors of chargeless local operators in the sine-Gordon model. New abelian…
We re-examine all the contractions related with the ${\cal U}_q(su(2))$ deformed algebra and study the consequences that the contraction process has for their structure. We also show using ${\cal U}_q(su(2))\times{\cal U}(u(1))$ as an…
In this paper, firstly we study some left invariant Riemannian metrics on para-hypercomplex 4-dimensional Lie groups. In each Lie group, the Levi-Civita connection and sectional curvature have been given explicitly. We also show these…
We establish a one-to-one correspondence between K\"ahler metrics in a given conformal class and parallel sections of a certain vector bundle with conformally invariant connection, where the parallel sections satisfy a set of non--linear…
We introduce twisted topological correspondences, which generalize both Katsura's topological correspondences as well as the twisted topological graphs introduced by Li. We show that, up to isomorphism, they are in bijection with certain…
E. Cartan's method of moving frames is applied to 3-dimensional manifolds $M$ which are CR-embedded in 5-dimensional real hyperquadrics $Q$ in order to classify $M$ up to CR symmetries of $Q$ given by the action of one of the Lie groups…
In earlier work, we constructed invariants of irreducible representations of the Kauffman skein algebra of a surface. We introduce here an inverse construction, which to a set of possible invariants associates an irreducible representation…
We review some definitions and basic notions relating to generalised spin structures and introduce the notion of reducibility. We discuss connections on these structures, define a covariant Lie derivative for associated bundles and develop…
This is the lecture 3 of a mini-course of 4 lectures. Our purpose of this mini-curse is to explain some ideas of E. Cartan and S. Lie when we study differential geometry, particularly we will to explain the Cartan reduction method. The…
