The vacuum cosmological model on the manifold $R \times M_1 \times \ldots \times M_n$ describing the evolution of $n$ Einstein spaces of non-zero curvatures is considered. For $n = 2$ the Einstein equations are reduced to the Abel (ordinary…
It is well known that by using the infinite dimensional symmetries that issue from string theories, one can build 2D geometric field theories. These 2D field theories can be identified with gravitational and gauge anomalies that arise in…

We consider U(n+1) Yang-Mills instantons on the space \Sigma\times S^2, where \Sigma is a compact Riemann surface of genus g. Using an SU(2)-equivariant dimensional reduction, we show that the U(n+1) instanton equations on \Sigma\times S^2…

The double copy programme relies crucially on the so-called color-kinematics duality which, in turn, is widely believed to descend from a kinematic algebra possessed by gauge theories. In this paper we construct the kinematic algebra of…
We recently introduced a class of ${\mathbb{Z}}_N$ graded discrete Lax pairs and studied the associated discrete integrable systems (lattice equations). In particular, we introduced a subclass, which we called "self-dual". In this paper we…
