We study the $m$-graded quiver theories associated to CY $(m+2)$-folds and their order $(m+1)$ dualities. We investigate how monodromies give rise to mutation invariants, which in turn can be formulated as Diophantine equations…
Chiral/self-dual restrictions of various super Yang-Mills and supergravity theories in (2,2) dimensions are described. These include the N=1 supergravity with a cosmological term and the N=1 new minimal supergravity theory. In the latter…
We establish algebraically and geometrically a duality between the Iwahori-Hecke algebra of type D and two new quantum algebras arising from the geometry of N-step isotropic flag varieties of type D. This duality is a type D counterpart of…
We prove that Riemannian metrics in General Relativity in the \emph{`normal-coordinates'} gauge are in one-to-one correspondence with curvature 2-forms. We discuss how this can be used as a change of variables in the operator formalism to…
We describe the global geometry, symmetries and tensors for Double Field Theory over pairs of nilmanifolds with fluxes or gerbes. This is achieved by a rather straightforward application of a formalism we developed previously. This…
We propose new interactions of a (massive) vector multiplet with chiral multiplets and (D-type) spontaneously broken supersymmetry in four-dimensional N=1 supergravity, due to the generalized Fayet-Iliopoulos (FI) terms. Our actions are…
We develop a general formalism of duality rotations for $\cal N$-extended superconformal gauge multiplets in conformally flat backgrounds as an extension of the approach given in arXiv:2107.02001. Additionally, we construct $\mathsf{U}(1)$…
We give another proof of the generic semisimplicity of the big quantum cohomology of the symplectic isotropic Grassmannians IG(2,2n).
We describe a global approach to the study of duality transformations between antisymmetric fields with transitions and argue that the natural geometrical setting for the approach is that of gerbes, these objects are mathematical…
In this paper, we explore a consequence of symplectic duality (also known as 3d mirror symmetry) in the setting of enumerative geometry. The theory of quasimaps allows one to associate hypergeometric functions called vertex functions to…
Aspects of three dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theories with monopole superpotentials and their dualities are investigated. The moduli spaces of a number of such theories are studied using Hilbert series. Moreover, we propose new…
In this note we investigate under which conditions the dual of the flow polytope (henceforth referred to as the `dual flow polytope') of a quiver is k-neighborly, for generic weights near the canonical weight. We provide a lower bound on k,…
We prove that invariance of a quantum theory under the semiclassical vs. strong-quantum duality $S/\hbar\longleftrightarrow\hbar/S$, where S is the classical action, is equivalent to noncommutativity (of the Heisenberg-algebra type) of the…
There are two different ways to deform a quantum curve along the flows of the KP hierarchy. We clarify the relation between the two KP orbits: In the framework of suitable connections attached to the quantum curve they are related by a…
We compute the Euler characteristics of quiver Grassmannians and quiver flag varieties of tree and band modules and prove their positivity. This generalizes some results by G.C. Irelli [arXiv:0910.2592]. As an application we consider the…
For each infinite series of the classical Lie groups of type B,C or D, we introduce a family of polynomials parametrized by the elements of the corresponding Weyl group of infinite rank. These polynomials represent the Schubert classes in…
We present a summary of the applications of duality to Donaldson-Witten theory and its generalizations. Special emphasis is made on the computation of Donaldson invariants in terms of Seiberg-Witten invariants using recent results in N=2…
The Poincare duality of classical cohomology and the extension of this duality to quantum cohomology endows these rings with the structure of a Frobenius algebra. Any such algebra possesses a canonical ``characteristic element;'' in the…
We study half-BPS surface operators in four dimensional N=2 SU(N) gauge theories, and analyze their low-energy effective action on the four dimensional Coulomb branch using equivariant localization. We also study surface operators as…
We show how to complement Feynman's exponential of the action so that it exhibits a Z_2 duality symmetry. The latter illustrates a relativity principle for the notion of quantum versus classical.
