We prove an L^2-estimate involving Ricci curvature and a harmonic 1-form on a closed oriented Riemannian 3-manifold admitting a solution of any rescaled Seiberg-Witten equations. We also give a necessary condition to be a monopole class on…

We use a Riemannnian approximation scheme to define a notion of $\textit{sub-Riemannian Gaussian curvature}$ for a Euclidean $C^{2}$-smooth surface in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$ away from characteristic points, and a notion of…

We show how an affine connection on a Riemannian manifold occurs naturally as a cochain in the complex for Leibniz cohomology of vector fields with coefficients in the adjoint representation. The Leibniz coboundary of the Levi-Civita…

For the case of algebraic curves - compact Riemann surfaces - it is shown that de Rham cohomology group $H^{1}_{\mathrm{dR}}(X,\mathbb{C})$ of a genus $g$ Riemann surface $X$ has a natural structure of a symplectic vector space. Every…

The contributions of this paper are twofold. Within the framework of Grothendieck's fibrational category theory, we present a web of fundamental 2-adjunctions surrounding the formation of the category of all small diagrams in a given…

A seminal technique of theoretical physics called Wick's theorem interprets the Gaussian matrix integral of the products of the trace of powers of Hermitian matrices as the number of labelled maps with a given degree sequence, sorted by…

We study the properties of Ricci curvature of ${\mathfrak{g}}$-manifolds with particular attention paid to higher dimensional abelian Lie algebra case. The relations between Ricci curvature of the manifold and the Ricci curvature of the…

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p>2. We compute the Weyl filtration multiplicities in indecomposable tilting modules and the decomposition numbers for the symplectic group over k in terms of cap-curl diagrams under…

Discrete curvatures are quantities associated to the nodes and edges of a graph that reflect the local geometry around them. These curvatures have a rich mathematical theory and they have recently found success as a tool to analyze networks…

Graph cocycles for star-products are investigated from the combinatorial point of view, using Connes-Kreimer renormalization techniques. The Hochschild complex, controlling the deformation theory of associative algebras, is the ``Kontsevich…

After establishing some new global facts (like a measure theoretic structure theorem and approximation results) about complex-valued functions with bounded variation on arbitrary noncompact Riemannian manifolds, we extend results of…

The combination of words ``discrete curvature'' is only an apparent contradiction. In this survey we describe curvature notions associated with polygons, polyhedral surfaces, and with abstract polyhedral manifolds. Several theorems about…

We study Laplacians on general countable weighted simplicial complexes from a conceptual point of view. These operators will first be introduced formally before showing that those formal operators coincide with self-adjoint realizations of…

Unique continuation results are proved for metrics with prescribed Ricci curvature in the setting of bounded metrics on compact manifolds with boundary, and in the setting of complete, conformally compact metrics. Related to this issue, an…

We use curvature decompositions to construct generating sets for the space of algebraic curvature tensors and for the space of tensors with the same symmetries as those of a torsion free, Ricci symmetric connection; the latter naturally…

Ricci curvature and Ricci flow have proven to be powerful tools for analyzing the geometry of discrete structures, particularly on undirected graphs, where they have been applied to tasks ranging from community detection to graph…

We study the prescribed Ricci curvature problem for homogeneous metrics. Given a (0,2)-tensor field $T$, this problem asks for solutions to the equation $\mathrm{Ric}(g)=cT$ for some constant $c$. Our approach is based on examining global…

For a derived stack obtained as a quotient of a derived affine scheme by a reductive group, we show that shifted symplectic structures can be characterized by the Cartan-de Rham complex. For non-reductive groups, we also show the analogous…

Each graph and choice of a commutative ring gives rise to an associated graphical group. In this article, we introduce and investigate graph polynomials that enumerate conjugacy classes of graphical groups over finite fields according to…

We construct a functor associating a cubical set to a (simple) graph. We show that cubical sets arising in this way are Kan complexes, and that the A-groups of a graph coincide with the homotopy groups of the associated Kan complex. We use…
