Given a pure, full-dimensional, locally strongly connected polyhedral complex C with convex support, we characterize, by a local codimension-2 condition, polyhedral complexes that coarsen C. The proof of the characterization draws upon a…

For the third q-Bessel function (first introduced by F.H. Jackson, later rediscovered by W.Hahn in a special case and by H. Exton) we derive Hansen-Lommel type orthogonality relations, which, by a symmetry, turn out to be equivalent to…

We show that there exists a correspondence between four dimensional gauge theories with simple groups and higher dimensional gauge theories at large N. As an example, we show that a four dimensional {N}=2 supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theory,…

We define and study a collection of special cycles on certain non-PEL Shimura varieties for $U(2,1) \times U(1,1)$ that appear naturally in the context of the recent conjectures of Gan, Gross and Prasad on restrictions of automorphic forms…

We consider the analogue of Seiberg duality for two-dimensional $N=(2,2)$ gauge theory with orthogonal gauge groups and with fundamental chiral multiplets proposed by Hori. Following Hori, when we consider $O(N)$ gauge group as the…

We study relations between reflections in (positive or negative) points in the complex hyperbolic plane. It is easy to see that the reflections in the points q_1,q_2 obtained from p_1,p_2 by moving p_1,p_2 along the geodesic generated by…

We define a $\mathbb{Z}_2$-valued invariant for transversely-intersecting coassociative $4$-folds equipped with spin structures. Our main result shows this invariant provides an obstruction to separating two such coassociatives through a…

The classical theory of Fuchsian differential equations is largely equivalent to the theory of Seiberg dualities for quiver SUSY gauge theories. In particular: all known integral representations of solutions, and their connection formulae,…

We describe extension of the pyritohedral symmetry to 4-dimensional Euclidean space and present the group elements in terms of quaternions. It turns out that it is a maximal subgroup of both the rank-4 Coxeter groups W(F4) and W(H4)…

In this thesis we develop the cohomology of diagrams of algebras and then apply this to the cases of the $\lambda$-rings and the $\Psi$-rings. A diagram of algebras is a functor from a small category to some category of algebras. For an…

This paper is a synthesis and extension of three earlier papers on $PD_4$-complexes $X$ with fundamental group $\pi$ such that $c.d.\pi=2$ and $\pi$ has one end. Our goal is to show that the homotopy types of such complexes are determined…

We study so-called non-syzygetic cubic fourfolds, i.e., smooth cubic fourfolds containing two cubic surface scrolls in distinct hyperplanes with intersection number between the two scrolls equal to $1$. We prove that a very general…

For a connected quasi-split reductive algebraic group $G$ over a field $k$, which is either a finite field or a non-archimedean local field, $\theta$ an involutive automorphism of $G$ over $k$, let $K =G^\theta$. Let $K^1=[K^0,K^0]$, the…

Equivalence relations or, more general, quasiorders (i.e., reflexive and transitive binary relations) $\rho$ have the property that an $n$-ary operation $f$ preserves $\rho$, i.e., $f$ is a polymorphism of $\rho$, if and only if each…

The $N=4$ SU(2)$_k$ superconformal algebra has the global automorphism of SO(4) $\approx$ SU(2)$\times$SU(2) with the {\it left} factor as the Kac-Moody gauge symmetry. As a consequence, an infinite set of independent algebras labeled by…

In this paper, we study $k$-parabolic arrangements, a generalization of $k$-equal arrangements for finite real reflection groups. When $k=2$, these arrangements correspond to the well-studied Coxeter arrangements. Brieskorn (1971) showed…

Polynomial relations for generators of $su(2)$ Lie algebra in arbitrary representations are found. They generalize usual relation for Pauli operators in spin 1/2 case and permit to construct modified Holstein-Primakoff transformations in…

A special case of the geometric Langlands correspondence is given by the relationship between solutions of the Bethe ansatz equations for the Gaudin model and opers - connections on the projective line with extra structure. In this paper,…

For a generalized permutohedron $Q$ the enumerator $F(Q)$ of positive lattice points in interiors of maximal cones of the normal fan $\Sigma_Q$ is a quasisymmetric function. We describe this function for the class of nestohedra as a Hopf…

The complex orthogonal and symplectic groups both act on the complete flag variety with finitely many orbits. We study two families of polynomials introduced by Wyser and Yong representing the $K$-theory classes of the closures of these…
