In a finite zone KdV context we show relations between the duality variables of Faraggi-Matone and those involved in Seiberg-Witten type duality.

We survey some topics involving the Whitham equations, concentrating on the role of the product of the wave function and its adjoint in averaging and in producing Cauchy kernels and differentials on Riemann surfaces. There are also some new…

A single incompressible, inviscid, irrotational fluid medium bounded above by a free surface is considered. The Hamiltonian of the system is expressed in terms of the so-called Dirichlet-Neumann operators. The equations for the surface…

It is known that electric-magnetic duality transformations are symmetries of the generalized Witten-Dijkgraaf-Verlinde-Verlinde (WDVV) equations. In Seiberg-Witten theory the solutions to these equations come in certain sets according to…

Duality in the integrable systems arising in the context of Seiberg-Witten theory shows that their tau-functions indeed can be seen as generating functions for the mutually Poisson-commuting hamiltonians of the {\em dual} systems. We…

In these lectures I review the general structure of electric--magnetic duality rotations in every even space--time dimension. In four dimensions, which is my main concern, I discuss the general issue of symplectic covariance and how it…

We generalise the electric-magnetic duality in standard Maxwell theory to its non-commutative version. Both space-space and space-time non-commutativity are necessary. The duality symmetry is then extended to a general class of…

This article provides a brief discussion of the functional of super Riemann surfaces from the point of view of classical (i.e. not "super-) differential geometry. The discussion is based on symmetry considerations and aims to clarify the…

An introduction to $N=2$ rigid and local supersymmetry is given. The construction of the actions of vector multiplets is reviewed, defining special K\"ahler manifolds. Symplectic transformations lead to either isometries or symplectic…

The techniques used in this paper are based on the exterior calculus of Maurer-Cartan forms, and Weingarten surfaces are used to illustrate the methods that apply to quadratic exterior equations with constant coefficients. Isothermic {\it…

The Riemann surface for polylogarithms of half-integer index, which has the topology of an infinite dimensional hypercube, is studied in relation to one-dimensional KPZ universality in finite volume. Known exact results for fluctuations of…

In this article, we give an explicit description of the invertible functions on the Drinfeld symmetric space over $K$ a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. We identify them with some distribution spaces over the profinite set of…

Riemann surfaces are two-dimensional manifolds with a conformal class of metrics. It is well known that the harmonic action functional and harmonic maps are tools to study the moduli space of Riemann surfaces. Super Riemann surfaces are an…

We consider the associativity (or WDVV) equations in the form they appear in Seiberg-Witten theory and prove that they are covariant under generic electric-magnetic duality transformations. We discuss the consequences of this covariance…

We present a summary of the progress made in the last few years on topological quantum field theory in four dimensions. In particular, we describe the role played by duality in the developments which led to the Seiberg-Witten invariants and…

We study several integrable Hamiltonian systems on the moduli spaces of meromorphic functions on Riemann surfaces (the Riemann sphere, a cylinder and a torus). The action-angle variables and the separated variables (in Sklyanin's sense) are…

We present an extended version of Riemannian geometry suitable for the description of current formulations of double field theory (DFT). This framework is based on graded manifolds and it yields extended notions of symmetries, dynamical…

We study the superconformal index for the class of N=2 4d superconformal field theories recently introduced by Gaiotto. These theories are defined by compactifying the (2,0) 6d theory on a Riemann surface with punctures. We interpret the…

This note is to concern a generalization to the case of twisted coefficients of the classical theory of Abelian differentials on a compact Riemann surface. We apply the Dirichlet's principle to a modified energy functional to show the…

The paper contains some new results and a review of recent achievements, concerning the multisupport solutions to matrix models. In the leading order of the 't Hooft expansion for matrix integral, these solutions are described by…
