A theorem of Delzant states that any symplectic manifold $(M,\om)$ of dimension $2n$, equipped with an effective Hamiltonian action of the standard $n$-torus $\T^n = \R^{n}/2\pi\Z^n$, is a smooth projective toric variety completely…

The quantum homology of the monotone complex quadric surface splits into the sum of two fields. We outline a proof of the following statement: The unities of these fields give rise to distinct symplectic quasi-states defined by asymptotic…

We construct canonical semi-orthogonal decompositions for derived categories of smooth projective surfaces. These decompositions are compatible with the operations in the minimal model program, such as blow-ups and conic bundles. Therefore…

For a field extension $L/K$ we consider maps that are quadratic over $L$ but whose polarisation is only bilinear over $K$. Our main result is that all such are automatically quadratic forms over $L$ in the usual sense if and only if $L/K$…

We analyze geometry of the second order differential operators, having in mind applications to Batalin--Vilkovisky formalism in quantum field theory. As we show, an exhaustive picture can be obtained by considering pencils of differential…

In this note, we extend to the singular case some results on the birational geometry of irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds.

The global additive and multiplicative properties of the Laplacian on j-forms and related zeta functions are analyzed. The explicit form of zeta functions on a product of closed oriented hyperbolic manifolds \Gamma\backslash{\Bbb H}^d and…

We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions to determine the existence of presymplectic forms of a given rank on all almost abelian Lie algebras. We also study the moduli space of presymplectic forms (this is the set of all closed 2-forms…

We construct lattices on six dimensional not completely solvable almost abelian Lie groups, for which the Mostow condition does not hold. For the corresponding compact quotients, we compute the de Rham cohomology (which does not agree in…

By complexifying a Hamiltonian system one obtains dynamics on a holomorphic symplectic manifold. To invert this construction we present a theory of real forms which not only recovers the original system but also yields different real…

We show that arising out of noncmmutatve geometry is a natural family of {\em edge Laplacians} on the edges of a graph. The family includes a canonical edge Laplacian associated to the graph, extending the usual graph Laplacian on vertices,…

For a representation of the absolute Galois group of the rationals over a finite field of characteristic $p$, we study the existence of a lift to characteristic zero that is geometric in the sense of the Fontaine-Mazur conjecture. For…

In a previous work, the second-named author gave a complete description of the action of automorphisms on the ordinary irreducible characters of the finite symplectic groups. We generalise this in two directions. Firstly, using work of the…

Locally variational systems of differential equations on smooth manifolds, having certain de Rham cohomology group trivial, automatically possess a global Lagrangian. This important result due to Takens is, how-ever, of sheaf-theoretic…

This is the second in a sequence of three articles exploring the relationship between commutative algebras and $E_\infty$-algebras in characteristic $p$ and mixed characteristic. Given a topological space $X,$ we construct, in a manner…

It is shown that the notion of W_\infty-algebra originally carried out over a (compact) Riemann surface can be extended to n complex dimensional (compact) manifolds within a symplectic geometrical setup. The relationships with the…

Given a logarithmic $1$-form on the snc locus of a log canonical surface pair $(X, D)$ over a perfect field of characteristic $p \ge 7$, we show that it extends with at worst logarithmic poles to any resolution of singularities. We also…

Manifold submetries of the round sphere are a class of partitions of the round sphere that generalizes both singular Riemannian foliations, and the orbit decompositions by the orthogonal representations of compact groups. We exhibit a…

Quantization problems suggest that the category of symplectic manifolds and symplectomorphisms be augmented by the inclusion of canonical relations as morphisms. These relations compose well when a transversality condition is satisfied, but…

Classical mechanical systems are modeled by a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, and their symmetries, encoded in the action of a Lie group $G$ on $M$ by diffeomorphisms that preserves $\omega$. These actions, which are called "symplectic",…
