We prove a combinatorial version of Thom's Isotopy Lemma for projection maps applied to any complex or real toric variety. Our results are constructive and give rise to a method for associating the Whitney strata of the projection to the…
Biharmonic maps are generalizations of harmonic maps. A well-known result of Eells and Wood on harmonic maps between surfaces shows that there exists no harmonic map from a torus into a sphere (whatever the metrics chosen) in the homotopy…
In this paper, we discuss the associated family of harmonic maps $\mathcal{F}: M \rightarrow G/K$ from a Riemann surface $M$ into inner symmetric spaces of compact or non-compact type which are either algebraic or totally symmetric. These…
In the paper, we study variation formulas for transversally harmonic maps and bi-harmonic maps, respectively. We also study the transversal Jacobi field along a map and give several relations with infinitesimal automorphisms.
If a mapping of several complex variables into projective space is holomorphic in each pair of variables, then it is globally holomorphic.
The spectral decomposition for an explicit second-order differential operator $T$ is determined. The spectrum consists of a continuous part with multiplicity two, a continuous part with multiplicity one, and a finite discrete part with…
We show that the spaces of holomorphic and continuous maps from a smooth complex projective variety to a projective space have the same homology in a range depending on the degree of the maps.
The derived category of an algebraic variety might be a source of a myriad of new (categorical) symmetries. Some are predicted by homological mirror symmetry, to be obtained from the fundamental group of the space of complex structures of…
We analyze in detail projective modules over two-dimensional noncommutative tori and complex structures on these modules.We concentrate our attention on properties of holomorphic vectors in these modules; the theory of these vectors…
The "noncommutative geometry" of complex algebraic curves is studied. As first step, we clarify a morphism between elliptic curves, or complex tori, and C*-algebras T_t={u,v | vu=exp(2\pi it)uv}, or noncommutative tori. The main result says…
We initiate and develop the theory of complex harmonic maps to holomorphic Riemannian symmetric spaces, which we make use of to study complex analytic aspects of higher Teichm\"uller theory, with a focus on rank $2$ Hitchin components.…
In this paper, we discuss an interaction between complex geometry and integrable systems. Section 1 reviews the classical results on integrable systems. New examples of integrable systems, which have been discovered, are based on the Lax…
We show that every smooth toric variety (and many other algebraic spaces as well) can be realized as a moduli space for smooth, projective, polarized varieties. Some of these are not quasi--projective. This contradicts a recent paper…
In [5], together with J. C. Wood, the authors gave a completely explicit formula for all harmonic maps from $2$-spheres to the unitary group $U(n)$ in terms of freely chosen meromorphic functions on $S^2$. The simplest harmonic maps are the…
The toric Hilbert scheme parametrizes all algebras isomorphic to a given semigroup algebra as a multigraded vectorspace. All components of the scheme are toric varieties, and among them, there is a fairly well understood coherent component.…
We estimate the dimensions of the spaces of holomorphic sections of certain line bundles to give improved lower bounds on the index of complex isotropic harmonic maps to complex projective space from the sphere and torus, and in some cases…
We describe some general constructions on a real smooth projective 4-quadric which provide analogues of the Willmore functional and conformal Gauss map in both Lie sphere and projective differential geometry. Extrema of these functionals…
To a generic hypersurface in the affine torus $(\mathbb{C}^*)^n$ we associate a hypersurface arrangement in the projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ consisting of the $n+1$ coordinate hyperplanes and a generic hypersurface, and compute the…
In this paper, we construct polynomial growth harmonic maps from once-punctured Riemann surfaces of any finite genus to any even-sided, regular, ideal polygon in the hyperbolic plane. We also establish their uniqueness within a class of…
Naturally reductive spaces, in general, can be seen as an adequate generalization of Riemannian symmetric spaces. Nevertheless, there are some that are closer to symmetric spaces than others. On the one hand, there is the series of Hopf…
