We introduce a spherical variant of Milnor's classifying construction for diffeological groups, based on quadratic normalization of barycentric coordinates. This construction gives rise to a contractible diffeological space endowed with…

In this paper we prove Schur-Weyl duality between the symplectic group and Brauer algebra over an arbitrary infinite field $K$. We show that the natural homomorphism from the Brauer algebra $B_n(-2m)$ to the endomorphism algebra of tensor…

The boundary conditions for canonical vacuum general relativity is investigated at the quasi-local level. It is shown that fixing the area element on the 2- surface S (rather than the induced 2-metric) is enough to have a well defined…

We investigate a squashing deformation of 3d N=2 supersymmetric theories on three-sphere, which have four supercharges. The deformation preserves SU(2)_L x U(1)_r isometry and all four supersymmetries. We compute the partition function and…

We prove that $S^1$ is a unimodular, cocommutative Hopf algebra in the category $CW^{1+1}$ of 2-equivalence classes of cobordisms of 2-dimensional CW-complexes and that $CW^{1+1}$ is actually equivalent to the symmetric monoidal category…

Let $\phi:M\to\mathbb{S}^{n+1}\subset\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ be an immersion of a complete $n$-dimensional oriented manifold. For any $v\in\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$, let us denote by $\ell_v:M\to\mathbb{R}$ the function given by $\ell_v(x)=\phi(x),v$ and…

For Seifert manifold $M=X({p_1}/_{\f{q_1}},{p_2}/_{\f{q_2}}, ...,{p_n}/_ {\f{q_n}}), \tau^{'}_r(M)$ is calculated for all $r$ odd $\geq 3$. If $r$ is coprime to at least $n-2$ of $p_k$ (e.g. when $M$ is the Poincare homology sphere), it is…

Let $S$ be a closed Shimura variety uniformized by the complex $n$-ball. The Hodge conjecture predicts that every Hodge class in $H^{2k} (S, \Q)$, $k=0, \ldots, n$, is algebraic. We show that this holds for all degree $k$ away from the…

Let $Z_{r, R}$ be the space of continuous functions on the annulus $B_{r, R}$ in $\mathbb C^n$ whose $\lambda$-twisted spherical mean, in the set up of the M\'{e}tivier group, vanishes over the spheres $S_s(z)\subset B_{r, R} $ with ball…

We construct a $U_q(\mathrm{so}(2n+1))$-equivariant local star-product on the complex sphere $\mathbb{S}^{2n}$ as a Non-Levi conjugacy class $SO(2n+1)/SO(2n)$.

Let $M$ be a hyperk\"ahler manifold with $b_2(M)\geq 5$. We improve our earlier results on the Morrison-Kawamata cone conjecture by showing that the Beauville-Bogomolov square of the primitive MBM classes (i.e. the classes whose orthogonal…

We construct a new autoequivalence of the derived category of the Hilbert scheme of n points on a K3 surface, and of the variety of lines on a smooth cubic 4-fold. For Hilb^2 and the variety of lines, we use the theory of spherical…

A spinless covariant field $\phi$ on Minkowski spacetime $\M^{d+1}$ obeys the relation $U(a,\Lambda)\phi(x)U(a,\Lambda)^{-1}=\phi(\Lambda x+a)$ where $(a,\Lambda)$ is an element of the Poincar\'e group $\Pg$ and $U:(a,\Lambda)\to…

Merkurjev's theorem--the statement that the 2-torsion of the Brauer group is represented by Clifford algebras of quadratic forms--is in general false when the base is no longer a field. The work of Parimala, Scharlau, and Sridharan proves…

A self-transverse immersion of the 2-sphere into 4-space with algebraic number of self intersection points equal to -n induces an immersion of the circle bundle over the 2-sphere of Euler class 2n into 4-space. Precomposing the circle…

For a given smooth $2$-knot in $S^4$, we relate the existence of a smooth Seifert hypersurface of a certain class to the existence of irreducible $ SU(2)$-representations of its knot group. For example, we see that any smooth $2$-knot…

We extend our previous analysis of Riemannian four-manifolds M admitting rigid supersymmetry to N=1 theories that do not possess a U(1)_R symmetry. With one exception, we find that M must be a Hermitian manifold. However, the presence of…

In relation to the 4-dimensional smooth Poincar\'e conjecture we construct a tentative invariant of homotopy 4-spheres using embedded contact homology (ECH) and Seiberg-Witten theory (SWF). But for good reason it is a constant value…

In this article, we study necessary conditions for certain square-free integers to be congruent numbers. Our method uses divisibility properties of class numbers of related imaginary quadratic fields. We first consider positive square-free…

Let $N\geq 5$, $a>0$, $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^{N}$, $2^*=\frac{2N}{N-2}$, $2^\#=\frac{2(N-1)}{N-2}$ and $||u||^2=|\nabla u|_{2}^2+a|u|_{2}^2$. We prove there exists an $\alpha_{0}>0$ such that, for all $u\in…
