The topological Hochschild homology THH(R) of a commutative S-algebra (E_infty ring spectrum) R naturally has the structure of a commutative R-algebra in the strict sense, and of a Hopf algebra over R in the homotopy category. We show,…
If the algebra of the Poincar\'e generators is enlarged by the spacetime position operator $X=(X_0,\dots, X_{D-1})$ then the spectra of the momentum $P$ and the mass $P^2$ are unbounded and continuous. In particular, the constraint $(P^2 -…
It is in general very subtle to integrate over the odd moduli of super Riemann surfaces in perturbative superstring computations. We study how these subtleties go away in favorable cases, including the embedding of N=0 string to N=1 string…
We provide an explicit description of the Poincar\'e dual of each generator of the rational cohomology ring of the $SU(2)$ character variety for a genus $g$ surface with central extension -- equivalently, that of the moduli space of stable…
We compute the Hochschild cohomology groups $\HH^*(A)$ in case $A$ is a triangular string algebra, and show that its ring structure is trivial.
We show that for dually paired bialgebras, every comodule algebra over one of the paired bialgebras gives a comodule algebra over their Drinfeld double via a crossed product construction. These constructions generalize to working with…
Massless modes of both heterotic and Type II string compactifications on compact manifolds are determined by vector bundle valued cohomology classes. Various applications of our recent algorithm for the computation of line bundle valued…
Boij-S\"oderberg theory concerns resolutions of graded modules over a polynomial ring over a field. Specifically Boij-S\"oderberg theory gives a description of the cone of Betti diagrams for Cohen-Macaulay modules. Eisenbud and Schreyer…
A simple geometric description of T-duality is given by identifying the cotangent bundles of the original and the dual manifold. Strings propagate naturally in the cotangent bundle and the original and the dual string phase spaces are…
We introduce a commutative product of degree $-n$ on the homology $H_\ast(X)$ of an $n$-dimensional special cubical set $X$ and lift it on the free loop homology $H_\ast(\Lambda M)$ for $M=|X|$ to be the geometric realization. These…
Aimed to a deeper comprehension of a manifestly T-dual invariant formulation of string theory, in this paper a detailed comparison between the non-covariant action proposed by Tseytlin and the covariant one proposed by Hull is done. These…
We compute the cohomologies of two strand braid varieties using the two-form present in cluster structures. We confirm these results with proof using Alexander and Poincar\'e duality. Further, we consider products of braid varieties and…
We prove formulas of different types that allow to calculate the Gerstenhaber bracket on the Hochschild cohomology of an algebra using some arbitrary projective bimodule resolution for it. Using one of these formulas, we give a new short…
We study the perturbative S-matrix of closed strings in the two-dimensional type 0B string theory from the worldsheet perspective, by directly integrating correlation functions of ${\cal N}=1$ Liouville theory. The latter is computed…
Motivated by the descent equation in string theory, we give a new interpretation for the action of the symmetry charges on the BRST cohomology in terms of what we call {\em the Gerstenhaber bracket}. This bracket is compatible with the…
The algebra S of symmetric invariants over the field with two elements is an unstable algebra over the Steenrod algebra A, and is isomorphic to the mod two cohomology of BO, the classifying space for vector bundles. We provide a minimal…
Our main objective is to demonstrate how homological perturbation theory (HPT) results over the last 40 years immediately or with little extra work give some of the Koszul duality results that have appeared in the last decade. Higher…
In 1999 Chas and Sullivan showed that the homology of the free loop space of an oriented manifold admits the structure of a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. In this paper we give a complete description of this Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra for…
Let H be a symplectic vector space, let V be a vector space, and consider the nilpotent Lie algebra L_H(V) = H \otimes V + S^2(V) with bracket [(h_1 \otimes v_1;a_1),(h_2 \otimes v_2;a_2)] = (0,<h_1,h_2> v_1 v_2) . In this paper, we…
Given a holomorphic Hilbertian bundle on a compact complex manifold, we introduce the notion of holomorphic $L^2$ torsion, which lies in the determinant line of the twisted $L^2$ Dolbeault cohomology and represents a volume element there.…
