We give a proof of the index theorem of lattice Wilson--Dirac operators, which states that the index of a twisted Dirac operator on the standard torus is described in terms of the corresponding lattice Wilson--Dirac operator. Our proof is…
Knot and link polynomials are topological invariants calculated from the expectation value of loop operators in topological field theories. In 3D Chern-Simons theory, these invariants can be found from crossing and braiding matrices of…
A recently proposed connection between closed string field and an open Wilson line defined on an arbitrary contour is further explored here. We suggest that reparametrization invariance of a Wilson line is the principle which determines the…
We explicitly establish a unitary correspondence between spherical irreducible tensor operators and cartesian tensor operators of any rank. That unitary relation is implemented by means of a basis of integer-spin wave functions that…
We propose a systematic treatment of symmetries of KP integrable systems, including constrained (reduced) KP models ${\sl cKP}_{R,M}$, and their multi-component (matrix) generalizations. Any such integrable hierarchy is shown to possess an…
The Virasoro groups are a family of central extensions of $\mathrm{Diff}^+(S^1)$, the group of orientation-preserving diffeomorphisms of $S^1$, by the circle group $\mathbb T$. We give a novel, geometric construction of these central…
In these proceedings we will describe the theory and practical steps required to build Vlasov solvers such as those commonly used to compute coherent instabilities in synchrotrons. Thanks to a Hamiltonian formalism, we will derive a compact…
We systematically construct wave functions and vertex operators in the type IIB (IKKT) matrix model by expanding a supersymmetric Wilson loop operator. They form a massless multiplet of the N=2 type IIB supergravity and automatically…
We classify positive transversal torus knots in tight contact structures up to transversal isotopy.
The usual spinor construction from one fermion yields four irreducible representations of the Virasoro algebra with central charge $c = 1/2$. The Neveu-Schwarz (NS) sector is the direct sum of an $h = 0$ and an $h = 1/2$ module, and the…
For the homogeneous configuration given by the long string limit of the folded string with a spin in AdS3 and a spin and a winding number in S1, we solve the auxiliary linear problem in the finite-gap method and construct the Lax operator…
We construct supersymmetric irregular vertex operators of arbitrary rank, appearing in the colliding limit of primary fields. We find that the structure of the supersymmetric irregular vertices differs significantly from the bosonic case:…
A Virasoro central charge can be associated with each Nichols algebra with diagonal braiding in a way that is invariant under the Weyl groupoid action. The central charge takes very suggestive values for some items in Heckenberger's list of…
There is a commutative algebra of differential-difference operators, with two parameters, associated to any dihedral group with an even number of reflections. The intertwining operator relates this algebra to the algebra of partial…
We give examples of a linear combination of algebraic knots and their mirrors that are algebraically slice, but whose topological and smooth four-genus is two. Our examples generalize an example of non-slice algebraically slice linear…
We present an enhanced prime decomposition theorem for knots that gives the isotopy classes of composite knots that can be constructed from a given list of prime factors (allowing for the mirroring and orientation reversing for each…
We construct a quadratic basis of generators of matrix-extended $\mathcal{W}_{1+\infty}$ using a generalization of the Miura transformation. This makes it possible to conjecture a closed-form formula for the operator product expansions…
In various contexts in mathematical physics one needs to compute the logarithm of a positive unbounded operator. Examples include the von Neumann entropy of a density matrix and the flow of operators with the modular Hamiltonian in the…
This paper defines versions of the Jones polynomial and Khovanov homology by using several maps from the set of Gauss diagrams to its variant. Through calculation of some examples, this paper also shows that these versions behave…
New results on the groundstate energy of tight, magnetic knots are presented. Magnetic knots are defined as tubular embeddings of the magnetic field in an ideal, perfectly conducting, incompressible fluid. An orthogonal, curvilinear…
