We explicitly demonstrate the existence of twistor and ambitwistor structure for the 4-dimensional complexified eikonal equation (CEE) and present its general solution consisting of two different classes. For both, every solution can be…
For any non-degenerate, quasi-homogeneous hypersurface singularity, we describe a family of moduli spaces, a virtual cycle, and a corresponding cohomological field theory associated to the singularity. This theory is analogous to…
We construct the universal Mumford curve of given genus as a family of Mumford curves over the deformation space of degenerate curves in the category of arithmetic formal geometry. Furthermore, we give explicit formulas of abelian…
Given a CW-complex A we define an `A-shaped' homology theory which behaves nicely towards A-homotopy groups allowing the generalization of many classical results. We also develop a relative version of the Federer spectral sequence for…
We discuss various aspects of most general multisupport solutions to matrix models in the presence of hard walls, i.e., in the case where the eigenvalue support is confined to subdomains of the real axis. The structure of the solution at…
In this paper we introduce an algorithm of construction of cyclic space-filling curves. One particular construction provides a family of space-filling curves in all dimensions (H-curves). They are compared here with the Hilbert curve in the…
We prove a correspondence, for Riemannian manifolds with self-dual Weyl tensor, between twistor functions and solutions to the Teukolsky equations for any conformal and spin weights. In particular, we give a contour integral formula for…
Let $X=\overline{X}-D$ be a smooth quasi-projective curve. In arXiv:2110.12300 we constructed a Deligne-Hitchin modui space with Hecke gauge groupoid for connections of rank $2$. We extend this construction to the case of any rank $r$,…
Solutions to the $n$-dimensional Laplace equation which are constant on a central quadric are found. The associated twistor description of the case $n=3$ is used to characterise Gibbons-Hawking metrics with tri-holomorphic $SL(2, \C)$…
We generalize the topological recursion of Eynard-Orantin (2007) to the family of spectral curves of Hitchin fibrations. A spectral curve in the topological recursion, which is defined to be a complex plane curve, is replaced with a generic…
We construct a universal envelope for any Poisson- and Gerstenhaber algebra. While the deformation theory of Poisson algebras seems to be partially trivial, results from string- and M-theory suggest a rich deformation theory of Gerstenhaber…
In this series of lectures, we (re)view the "geometric method" that reconstructs, from a geometric object: the "spectral curve", an integrable system, and in particular its Tau function, Baker-Akhiezer functions and "current amplitudes",…
We approach the question of complexification of the diffeomorphism group of the circle by considering real-analytic maps from the circle into the punctured complex plane with winding number +1. Such complex deformations form an…
Given a slice regular function $f:\Omega\subset\mathbb{H}\to \mathbb{H}$, with $\Omega\cap\mathbb{R}\neq \emptyset$, it is possible to lift it to a surface in the twistor space $\mathbb{CP}^{3}$ of $\mathbb{S}^4\simeq \mathbb{H}\cup…
In this article we construct a cochain complex of a complex Clifford algebra with coefficients in itself in a combinatorial fashion and we call the corresponding cohomology by {\it Clifford cohomology.} We show that {\it Clifford…
We construct explicitly the symmetries of the isospectral deformations as twists of Lie algebras and demonstrate that they are isometries of the deformed spectral triples.
The dispersionless KP and Toda hierarchies possess an underlying twistorial structure. A twistorial approach is partly implemented by the method of Riemann-Hilbert problem. This is however still short of clarifying geometric ingredients of…
We give quantitative and qualitative results on the family of surfaces in $\mathbb{CP}^3$ containing finitely many twistor lines. We start by analyzing the ideal sheaf of a finite set of disjoint lines $E$. We prove that its general element…
We define a hierarchy of special classes of constrained Willmore surfaces by means of the existence of a polynomial conserved quantity of some type, filtered by an integer. Type 1 with parallel top term characterises parallel mean curvature…
This paper is intended to describe twistors via the paravector model of Clifford algebras and to relate such description to conformal maps in the Clifford algebra over R(4,1), besides pointing out some applications of the pure spinor…
