Let A be a modular abelian variety over \Q of arbitrary even dimension. We establish criteria to prevent a given quaternion algebra over a totally real number field to be the endomorphism algebra of A over \bar\Q. We accomplish this by…
Crossing symmetry provides a powerful tool to access the non-perturbative dynamics of conformal and superconformal field theories. Here we develop the mathematical formalism that allows to construct the crossing equations for arbitrary…
With the aim to study six-dimensional (2,0) superconformal theories with non-Abelian tensor multiplets we propose a five-dimensional superconformal action with eight supersymmetries for an infinite tower of non-Abelian vector, tensor and…
We systematically study calibrated geometry in hyperk\"ahler cones $C^{4n+4}$, their 3-Sasakian links $M^{4n+3}$, and the corresponding twistor spaces $Z^{4n+2}$, emphasizing the relationships between submanifold geometries in various…
We use the four-dimensional N=2 central charge superspace to give a geometrical construction of the Abelian vector-tensor multiplet consisting, under N=1 supersymmetry, of one vector and one linear multiplet. We derive the component field…
We consider four (real or complex) dimensional hyper-K\"ahler metrics with a conformal symmetry K. The three-dimensional space of orbits of K is shown to have an Einstein-Weyl structure which admits a shear-free geodesics congruence for…
We construct a functor from the smooth 4-dimensional manifolds to the hyper-algebraic number fields, i.e. fields with non-commutative multiplication. It is proved that that the simply connected 4-manifolds correspond to the abelian…
Given a semi-Riemannian $4$-manifold $(M,g)$ with two distinguished vector fields satisfying properties determined by their shear, twist and various Lie bracket relations, a family of K\"ahler metrics $g_K$ is constructed, defined on an…
Using superspace techniques we construct the general theory describing D=4, N=2 supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of vector and scalar--tensor multiplets. The scalar manifold of the theory is the direct product of a special…
We give an explicit local classification of conformally equivalent but oppositely oriented Kaehler metrics on a 4-manifold which are toric with respect to a common 2-torus action. In the generic case, these structures have an intriguing…
Continuing the investigation of CNM (chiral-nonminimal) hypermultiplet nonlinear sigma-models, we propose extensions of the concept of the c-map which relate holomorphic functions to hyper-Kahler geometries. In particular, we show that a…
We present the first example of an interacting Carroll supersymmetric field theory with both temporal and spatial derivatives, belonging to the Galileon class, where the non-linear field equation remains second-order in derivative. To…
Making use of integral forms and superfield techniques we propose supersymmetric extensions of the multimetric gravity Lagrangians in dimensions one, two, three and four. The supersymmetric interaction potential covariantly deforms the…
We present the description in central charge superspace of N=4 supergravity with antisymmetric tensor coupled to an arbitrary number of abelian vector multiplets. All the gauge vectors of the coupled system are treated on the same footing…
We consider supersymmetry in five dimensions, where the fermionic parameters are a 2-form under SL(5). Supermultiplets are investigated using the pure spinor superfield formalism, and are found to be closely related to infinite-dimensional…
We study locally conformally balanced metrics on almost abelian Lie algebras, namely solvable Lie algebras admitting an abelian ideal of codimension one, providing characterizations in every dimension. Moreover, we classify six-dimensional…
Given a hyperkahler manifold M, the hyperkahler structure defines a triple of symplectic structures on M; with these, a triple of Hamiltonians defines a so called hyperhamiltonian dynamical system on M. These systems are integrable when can…
We construct a new family of compact orbifolds with a positive self dual Einstein metric and a one-dimensional group of isometries. Together with another known family, these examples classify all 4-dimensional orbifolds that are quaternion…
Under the action of the c-map, special Kahler manifolds are mapped into a class of quaternion-Kahler spaces. We explicitly construct the corresponding Swann bundle or hyperkahler cone, and determine the hyperkahler potential in terms of the…
In a recent paper Donaldson explains how to use an older construction of Joyce to obtain four dimensional local models for scalar-flat Kahler metrics with a 2-torus symmetry. Using this idea, he recovers and generalizes the Taub-NUT metric…
