We introduce a twisted relative trace formula which simultaneously generalizes the twisted trace formula of Langlands et.al. (in the quadratic case) and the relative trace formula of Jacquet and Lai. Certain matching statements relating…
These are lecture notes for a course I gave in mid-1990s for MSc students at the University of Bath. It presents an algorithm with singly exponential complexity for the existential theory of the reals, in the spirit of J. Renegar. The aim…
These notes provide an introductory exposition of the Seiberg-Witten gauge theory. They collect the material presented in a series of seminars given by the author at the University of Milano.
This article is based on a talk given by the author at MSRI in the workshop "Connections for Women" in January 2013, while being a part of the program "Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry and Representation Theory" at MSRI. One purpose of the…
These are notes of a mini-course given at Dennisfest in June 2001. The goal of these notes is to give a self-contained survey of deformation quantization, operad theory, and graph homology. Some new results related to "String Topology" and…
I developed the lecture notes based on my ``Linear Model'' course at the University of California, Berkeley over the past ten years. This book provides an intermediate-level introduction to the linear model. It balances rigorous proofs and…
Notes from 11 October 2004 lecture presented at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Astrophysics R-Matrix School at Notre Dame University.
Emphasis is on 2d target space (c=1 coupled to gravity). Contents: 0. Introduction, Overview, and Purpose 1. Loops and States in Conformal Field Theory 2. 2D Euclidean Quantum Gravity I: Path Integral Approach 3. Brief Review of the…
These are the notes from my courses on the arithmetic of quadratic forms.
Brief lecture notes for a course about random matrices given at the University of Cambridge.
Lecture notes written for a one-semester course in mathematical relativity aimed at mathematics and physics students. Not meant as an introduction to general relativity, but rather as a complementary, more advanced text.
We establish the coarse relative trace formulae of Jacquet-Rallis for linear and unitary groups. Both formulae are of the form: a sum of spectral distributions equals a sum of geometric distributions. In order to obtain the spectral…
The goal of this paper is to present an algebraic approach to the basic results of the theory of linear recurrence relations. This approach is based on the ideas from the theory of representations of one endomorphisms (a special case of…
These are lecture notes for the AGRA II school, which took place in August 2015 at Universidad de San Antonio Abad del Cusco (Per\'u). They are geared towards graduate students and young researchers. I. Modular forms and Shimura curves (R.…
Let $\mathbb{A}$ be the adele ring of a totally real algebraic number field $F$. We push forward an explicit computation of a relative trace formula for periods of automorphic forms along a split torus in $GL(2)$ from a square free level…
These notes give an introduction to the Gabriel-Roiter measure of a finite dimensional algebra. They are based on a series of four lectures at the "Advanced School and Conference on Representation Theory and Related Topics" in Trieste…
This lecture note surveys the gamma matrices in general dimensions with arbitrary signatures, the study of which is essential to understand the supersymmetry in the corresponding spacetime. The contents supplement the lecture presented by…
These notes are a record of lectures given in the Workshop on Connections Between Algebra and Geometry at the University of Regina, May 29--June 1, 2012. The lectures were meant as an introduction to current research problems related to fat…
