The dimensional reduction of the E8 gauge theory in eleven dimensions leads to a loop bundle in ten dimensional type IA string theory. We show that the restriction to the Neveu-Schwarz sector leads naturally to a sigma model with target…

The cotangent bundle $T^*X$ of a smooth intersection $X$ of two quadrics admits a Lagrangian fibration determined by the intrinsic geometry of $X$. We show that this fibration is actually the Hitchin morphism if we endow $X$ with a…

We introduce the notion of a minimal Lagrangian connection on the tangent bundle of a manifold and classify all such connections in the case where the manifold is a compact oriented surface of non-vanishing Euler characteristic. Combining…

A $\mathrm{U}(p,q)$-Higgs bundle on a Riemann surface (twisted by a line bundle) consists of a pair of holomorphic vector bundles, together with a pair of (twisted) maps between them. Their moduli spaces depend on a real parameter $\alpha$.…

We show that the moduli space of simple flat bundles over a compact Sasakian manifold is a finite disjoint union of moduli spaces of simple flat bundles with fixed basic structures. This gives a detailed description of the non-abelian Hodge…

Given a Lagrangian sphere in a symplectic 4-manifold $(M, \omega)$ with $b^+=1$, we find embedded symplectic surfaces intersecting it minimally. When the Kodaira dimension $\kappa$ of $(M, \omega)$ is $-\infty$, this minimal intersection…

We consider the moduli spaces of representations of the fundamental group of a surface of genus g greater than 2 in the Lie groups SU(2,2) and Sp(4,R). It is well known that there is a characteristic number of such a representation, whose…

We derive a map relating the gauge symmetry groups of heterotic strings on $T^4$ to other components of the moduli space with rank reduction. This generalizes the results for $T^2$ and $T^3$ which mirror the singularity freezing mechanism…

A planar Tangle is a smooth simple closed curve piecewise defined by quadrants of circles with constant curvature. We can enumerate Tangles by counting their dual graphs, which consist of a certain family of polysticks. The number of…

We study how the notion of tangent space can be extended from smooth manifolds to diffeological spaces, which are generalizations of smooth manifolds that include singular spaces and infinite-dimensional spaces. We focus on two definitions.…

This article is concerned with moduli spaces of connections on bundles on Riemann surfaces, where the structure group of the bundle may vary in different regions of the surface. Here we will describe such moduli spaces as complex symplectic…

Let $\Mg$ denote the moduli space of compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$. Mumford had proved that, for each fixed genus $g$, there are isomorphisms asserting that certain higher $DET$ bundles over $\Mg$ are certain fixed…

Four observations compose the main results of this note. The first records the existence of a smoothly embedded 2-sphere $S$ inside $\mathbb{R} P^2\times S^2$ such that performing a Gluck twist on $S$ produces a manifold $Y$ that is…

A smooth closed 3-manifold $M$ fibered by tori $T^2$ is characterized by an element $\phi \in GL(2,\mathbb{Z})$. We show that $M$ is the boundary of a 4-manifold fibered by tori over a surface such that the bundle structure on $M$ is the…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a symplectic manifold endowed with a agrangian foliation ${\cal L}$, it has been shown by Weinstein [16] hat the symplectic structure of $M$ defines on each leaf of ${\cal L}$, connection which curvature and torsion…

We investigate on the existence of some "sporadic", rank-$r \geqslant 1$ Ulrich vector bundles on suitable $3$-fold scrolls $X$ over the Hirzebruch surface $\mathbb{F}_0$, which arise as tautological embeddings of projectivization of…

We study the vibrational spectrum of a constrained classical ring. Due to the presence of 2-order exceptional points, a topologically trivial band at the infinity can make the vibrational band topologically nontrivial. The symmetry, which…

A moduli space ${\mathcal N}$ of stable parabolic vector bundles, of rank $r$ and parabolic degree zero, on a $n$-pointed curve has two naturally occurring holomorphic $T^*{\mathcal N}$--torsors over it. One of them is given by the moduli…

The Hodge bundle $\omega$ over a modular curve is a square-root of the canonical bundle twisted by the cuspidal divisor, or a theta characteristic, due to the Kodaira--Spencer isomorphism. We prove that, in most cases, a section of a theta…

A principal Higgs bundle $(P,\phi)$ over a singular curve $X$ is a pair consisting of a principal bundle $P$ and a morphism $\phi:X\to\text{Ad}P \otimes \Omega^1_X$. We construct the moduli space of principal Higgs G-bundles over an…
