Generalizing our ideas in [arXiv:1006.3313], we explain how topologically-twisted N=2 gauge theory on a four-manifold with boundary, will allow us to furnish purely physical proofs of (i) the Atiyah-Floer conjecture, (ii) Munoz's theorem…
The 2x2 space-filling curve is a type of generalized space-filling curve characterized by a basic unit is in a "U-shape" that traverses a 2x2 grid. In this work, we propose a universal framework for constructing general 2x2 curves where…
We study a Floer-theoretic approach to harmonic maps from the two-torus into non-flat K\"ahler manifolds. Building on the complex-regularized polysymplectic (CRPS) formalism of [BF24], which provides a Hamiltonian description of harmonic…
I conjecture that index formulas for $K$-theory classes on the moduli of holomorphic $G$-bundles over a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$ are controlled, in a precise way, by Frobenius algebra deformations of the Verlinde algebra of $G$. The…
We study gauge theories on spacetime manifolds with a codimension-$1$ submanifold with boundary. We characterise the reduced phase space of the theory whenever it is described by a local momentum map for the action of the gauge group…
We show that if $K\ge1$ is a parameter and $S$ is a finite symmetric subset of a group containing the identity such $|S^{2n}|\le K|S^n|$ for some integer $n\ge2K^2$, then $|S^{3n}|\le\exp(\exp(O(K^2)))|S^n|$. Such a result was previously…
For a graph $T$ and a set of graphs $\mathcal{H}$, let $\mbox{ex}(n,T,\mathcal{H})$ denote the maximum number of copies of $T$ in an $n$-vertex $\mathcal{H}$-free graph. Recently, Alon and Frankl~(arXiv2210.15076) determined the exact value…
Let $K$ be an algebraic function field of one variable with constant field $k$ and let $C$ be the Dedekind domain consisting of all those elements of $K$ which are integral outside a fixed place $\infty$ of $K$. When $k$ is finite the group…
Motivated by a result of [1] which states that if F is a subgraph of a convex complete graph K_n and F contains no boundary edge of K_n and |E(F)| \leq n-3, then K_n - F admits a triangulation, we determine necessary and sufficient…
The BNSR-invariants of a group $G$ are a sequence $\Sigma^1(G)\supseteq \Sigma^2(G) \supseteq \cdots$ of geometric invariants that reveal important information about finiteness properties of certain subgroups of $G$. We consider the…
Let $K$ be the function field of a curve $C$ over a $p$-adic field $k$. We prove that, for each $n, d \geq 1$ and for each hypersurface $Z$ in $\mathbb{P}^n_{K}$ of degree $d$ with $d^2 \leq n$, the second Milnor $K$-theory group of $K$ is…
We canonically quantize a Poisson manifold to a Lie 2-groupoid, complete with a quantization map, and show that it relates geometric and deformation quantization: the perturbative expansion in $\hbar$ of the (formal) convolution of two…
We study curved-space rigid supersymmetry for two-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(2,2)$ supersymmetric fields theories with a vector-like $R$-symmetry by coupling such theories to background supergravity. The associated Killing spinors can be…
We study the convergence of graphs consisting of finitely many internal rays for degenerating Newton maps. We state a sufficient condition to guarantee the convergence. As an application, we investigate the boundedness of hyperbolic…
We consider families of quasiplatonic Riemann surfaces characterised by the fact that -- as in the case of Fermat curves of exponent $n$ -- their underlying regular (Walsh) hypermap is the complete bipartite graph $ K_{n,n} $, where $ n $…
We consider certain CM elliptic curves which are related to Fermat curves, and express the values of $L$-functions at $s=2$ in terms of special values of generalized hypergeometric functions. We compare them and a similar result of…
We give a new, geometric proof of the section conjecture for fixed points of finite group actions on projective curves of positive genus defined over the field of complex numbers, as well as its natural nilpotent analogue. As a part of our…
In genus two and higher, the fundamental group of a closed surface acts naturally on the curve complex of the surface with one puncture. Combining ideas from previous work of Kent--Leininger--Schleimer and Mitra, we construct a universal…
We consider parahoric Bruhat-Tits group schemes over a smooth projective curve and torsors under them. If the characteristic of the ground field is either zero or positive but not too small and the generic fiber is absolutely simple and…
We show how to use equidimensional algebraic correspondences between complex algebraic varieties to construct pull-backs and transforms of certain classes of geometric currents. Using this construction we produce explicit formulas at the…
