相关论文: Geometric Complexity Theory: Introduction

Early in 2011 Sam Evens acting on behalf of the organizers of the summer school on quantization at Notre Dame asked me to give a short series of lectures on geometric quantization. These lectures were meant to prepare a group of graduate…

These notes are based on a series of lectures by Kadri \.Ilker Berktav from May 2024 to November 2024, providing a detailed exposition of geometric quantization formalism and its essential components. They are organized into three parts:…

This is the written version of a lecture given at the ``VI Mexican School of Gravitation and Mathematical Physics" (Nov 21-27, 2004, Playa del Carmen, Mexico), introducing the basics of Loop Quantum Geometry. The purpose of the written…

In this lecture note, we give a basic introduction to the rapidly developing concepts of generalized symmetries, from the perspectives of both high energy physics and condensed matter physics. In particular, we emphasize on the (invertible)…

Chapters 1 to 4 are the lecture notes of my course "Real Algebraic Geometry I" from the winter term 2020/2021. Chapters 5 to 8 are the lecture notes of its continuation "Real Algebraic Geometry II" from the summer term 2021. Chapters 9 and…

This paper is based on a course given by the author at the University of Rome ``La Sapienza'' in the Academic year 2000/2001. The intended aim of the course was to rapidly introduce, although not in an exhaustive way, the non-expert PhD…

In the first part of this review we introduce the basics theory behind geometric phases and emphasize their importance in quantum theory. The subject is presented in a general way so as to illustrate its wide applicability, but we also…

These third-year lecture notes are designed for a 1-semester course in topological quantum field theory (TQFT). Assumed background in mathematics and physics are only standard second-year subjects: multivariable calculus, introduction to…

This article describes a formal strategy of geometric complexity theory (GCT) to resolve the {\em self referential paradox} in the $P$ vs. $NP$ and related problems. The strategy, called the {\em flip}, is to go for {\em explicit proofs} of…

These Lectures are based on a course on noncommutative geometry given by the author in 2003 at the University of Chicago. The lectures contain some standard material, such as Poisson and Gerstenhaber algebras, deformations, Hochschild…

This is an expanded version of the lecture notes for a minicourse that I gave at a summer school called "Advanced Course on Geometry and Dynamics of Integrable Systems" at CRM Barcelona, 9--14/September/2013. In this text we study the…

These notes, based on a graduate course I gave at Hamburg University in 2003, are intended to students having basic knowledges of differential geometry. Their main purpose is to provide a quick and accessible introduction to different…

These notes loosely follow an introductory course on graph complexes, held at Humboldt-Universit\"at zu Berlin in summer 23. Instead of simply typing up my lecture notes I decided to give here an overview over (parts of) the topic (lecture…

These are the lecture notes for the introductory graduate course I taught at Yale during Spring 2007. I mostly followed [GS], [BGV], [AB], [Par2], and there are no original results in these notes.

These notes accompany an introductory lecture course on the twistor approach to supersymmetric gauge theories aimed at early-stage PhD students. It was held by the author at the University of Cambridge during the Michaelmas term in 2009.…

These notes contain a survey of some aspects of the theory of graded differential algebras and of noncommutative differential calculi as well as of some applications connected with physics. They also give a description of several new…

This is a set of expository lecture notes created originally for a graduate course on holomorphic curves taught at ETH Zurich and the Humboldt University Berlin in 2009/2010. The notes are still incomplete, but due to recent requests from…

In this research oriented manuscript, foundational aspects of rigid geometry are discussed, putting emphasis on birational side of formal schemes and topological feature of rigid spaces. Besides the rigid geometry itself, topics include the…

This note is the sequel of "Geometric structures as variational objects, I." It generalizes the main result and perspectives of that work to a class of geometric structures that includes integrable almost-complex structures.

These lecture notes present a computation driven pathway from classical complex analysis to the theory of compact Riemann surfaces and their connections to algebraic geometry. The exposition follows a compute first then abstract philosophy,…
