Given a double vector bundle $D\to M$, we define a bigraded `Weil algebra' $\mathcal{W}(D)$, which `realizes' the algebra of smooth functions on the supermanifold $D[1,1]$. We describe in detail the relations between the Weil algebras of…
Let $G$ be an even dimensional, connected, abelian Lie group and $(\mathcal{A}^\infty,G,\alpha,\tau)$ be a $C^*$-dynamical system equipped with a faithful $G$-invariant trace $\tau$. We show that whenever it determines a…
We construct an invariant of 3-manifolds using a modification of the Kontsevich integral and Kirby's calculus. This invariant, as expected in perturbative Chern-Simon theory, takes values in the algebra of oriented 3-valent graphs. This…
Let K be a CM-field, i.e., a totally complex quadratic extension of a totally real field F. Let X be a g-dimensional abelian variety admitting an algebra embedding of F into the rational endomorphisms End_Q(X) of X. Let A be the product of…
We study the category of wheeled PROPs using tools from Invariant Theory. A typical example of a wheeled PROP is the mixed tensor algebra ${\mathcal V}=T(V)\otimes T(V^\star)$, where $T(V)$ is the tensor algebra on an $n$-dimensional vector…
For any finite abelian group G, the equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of C^r/G can be viewed as a certain kind of abelian Hurwitz-Hodge integrals. In this note, we use Tseng's orbifold quantum Riemann-Roch theorem to express this kind of…
A cohomology theory of weighted Rota-Baxter $3$-Lie algebras is introduced. Formal deformations, abelian extensions, skeletal weighted Rota-Baxter $3$-Lie 2-algebras and crossed modules of weighted Rota-Baxter 3-Lie algebras are interpreted…
We provide a new, self-contained proof of the classification of homogeneous 3-Sasakian manifolds, which was originally obtained by Boyer, Galicki and Mann. In doing so, we construct an explicit one-to-one correspondence between simply…
We define a holographic dual to the Donaldson-Witten topological twist of $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theories on a Riemannian four-manifold. This is described by a class of asymptotically locally hyperbolic solutions to $\mathcal{N}=4$ gauged…
We analyze oriented Riemannian 4-manifolds whose Weyl tensors $W$ satisfy the conformally invariant condition $W(T,\cdot,\cdot,T) = 0$ for some nonzero vector $T$. While this can be algebraically classified via $W$'s normal form, we find a…
We study Hopf algebras via tools from geometric invariant theory. We show that all the invariants we get can be constructed using the integrals of the Hopf algebra and its dual together with the multiplication and the comultiplication, and…
We begin the systematic study of cohomological Hecke operators of modifications of coherent sheaves on a smooth surface $X$, along a fixed proper curve $Z \subset X$. We develop the necessary geometric foundations in order to define the…
In the paper \cite{KS}, Kontsevich and Soibelman in particular associate to each finite quiver $Q$ with a set of vertices $I$ the so-called Cohomological Hall algebra $\cH,$ which is $\Z_{\geq 0}^I$-graded. Its graded component…
We show that if $A$ and $H$ are Hopf algebras that have equivalent tensor categories of comodules, then one can transport what we call a free Yetter-Drinfeld resolution of the counit of $A$ to the same kind of resolution for the counit of…
We provide an explicit computation over the integers of the bar version $\overline{HM}_*$ of the monopole Floer homology of a three-manifold in terms of a new invariant associated to its triple cup product called extended cup homology. This…
We realise the cohomology ring of a flag manifold, more generally the coinvariant algebra of an arbitrary finite Coxeter group W, as a commutative subalgebra of a certain Nichols algebra in the Yetter-Drinfeld category over W. This gives a…
The coefficient algebra of a finite-dimensional Lie algebra on a finite-dimensional representation is defined as the subalgebra generated by all coefficients of the corresponding characteristic polynomial. We explore connections between…
Let $(F,J,\omega)$ be an almost K\"ahler manifold, $\alpha$ a $J$-holomorphic action of a compact Lie group $\hat K$ on $F$, and $K$ a closed normal subgroup of $\hat K$ which leaves $\omega$ invariant. We introduce gauge theoretical…
We construct a new model structure on the category of dg presheaves over a topological space $X$, obtained through the right Bousfield localization of the local projective model structure. The motivation for this construction arises from…
For an associative algebra $A$, the famous theorem of Loday, Quillen and Tsygan says that there is an isomorphism between the graded symmetric product of the cyclic homology of $A$ and the Lie algebra homology of the infinite matrices…
