Given a lattice $L$, a full dimensional polytope $P$ is called a {\em Delaunay polytope} if the set of its vertices is $S\cap L$ with $S$ being an {\em empty sphere} of the lattice. Extending our previous work \cite{DD-hyp} on the {\em…

N = 2 supersymmetry in four space-time dimensions is intimately related to hyperkahler and quaternionic Kahler geometries. On one hand, the target spaces for rigid supersymmetric sigma-models are necessarily hyperkahler manifolds. On the…
A five-dimensional lattice space can be decomposed into a number of four-dimens ional lattices called as layers. The five-dimensional gauge theory on the lattice can be interpreted as four-dimensional gauge theories on the multi-layer with…
