We study the intersection ring of the space $\M(\alpha_1,...,\alpha_m)$ of polygons in $\R^3$. We find homology cycles dual to generators of this ring and prove a recursion relation in $m$ (the number of steps) for their intersection…
The goal of this article is to motivate and describe how Gromov-Witten theory can and has provided tools to understand the moduli space of curves. For example, ideas and methods from Gromov-Witten theory have led to both conjectures and…
Let Y be a normal crossing divisor in the smooth projective algebraic variety X (defined over ${\mathbb C}$) and let U be a tubular neighbourhood of Y in X. We construct homological cycles generating $H_*(A,B)$, where (A,B) is one of the…
We prove that almost every interval exchange transformation, with an associated translation surface of genus $g\geq 2$, can be non-trivially and isometrically embedded in a family of piecewise isometries. In particular this proves the…
We study classes $P_{g,T}(\alpha;\beta)$ on the moduli space of stable, genus g curves with rational tails defined by pushing forward the virtual fundamental classes of spaces of relative stable maps to an unparameterized projective line. A…
We study the spaces of stable real and quaternionic vector bundles on a real algebraic curve. The basic relationship is established with unitary representations of an extension Z/2 by the fundamental group. By comparison with the space of…
For a symplectic manifold $(M,\om)$ with exact symplectic form we construct a 2-cocycle on the group of symplectomorphisms and indicate cases when this cocycle is not trivial.
We illustrate the use of the computer algebra system Macaulay2 for simplifications of classical unirationality proofs. We explicitly treat the moduli spaces of curves of genus g=10, 12 and 14.
In this paper we study algorithmic aspects of tropical intersection theory. We analyse how divisors and intersection products on tropical cycles can actually be computed using polyhedral geometry. The main focus of this paper is the study…
In this paper we study spaces of algebras over an operad (non-symmetric) in symmetric monoidal model categories. We first compute the homotopy fiber of the forgetful functor sending an algebra to its underlying object, extending a result of…
This paper is the first in a series of four papers aiming to describe the (almost integral) Chow ring of $\bar{\mathcal{M}}_3$, the moduli stack of stable curves of genus $3$. In this paper, we introduce the moduli stack…
We make some brief remarks on the relation of the mixmaster universe model of chaotic cosmology to the geometry of modular curves and to noncommutative geometry. In particular we consider a class of solutions with bounded number of cycles…
In this paper the Maxwell field theory is considered on the $Z_n$ symmetric algebraic curves. As a first result, a large family of nondegenerate metrics is derived for general curves. This allows to treat many differential equations arising…
The modular curves serve as excellent objects for testing conjectures in arithmetic geometry. They possess a natural geometric definition in contrast with rather nontrivial structure. On the other hand, they are well-studied from the…
The amoeba of a complex curve in the 2-dimensional complex torus is its image under the projection onto the real subspace in the logarithmic scale. The complement to an amoeba is a disjoint union of connected components that are open and…
The subalgebra of the tautological ring of the moduli of curves of compact type generated by the kappa classes is studied in all genera. Relations, constructed via the virtual geometry of the moduli of stable quotients, are used to obtain…
We define a class of groups constructed from rings equipped with an involution. We show that under suitable conditions, these groups are either algebraic or arithmetic, including as special cases the orientation-preserving isometry group of…
A survey of special curves, special subvarieties of $\mathcal{M}_g$, and related topics. A large portion of the text discusses various possible interpretation of the word 'special' in this context by giving also concrete examples. One…
Using an algebraic orbifold method, we present non-commutative aspects of $G_2$ structure of seven dimensional real manifolds. We first develop and solve the non commutativity parameter constraint equations defining $G_2$ manifold algebras.…
We review and extend recent work on the application of the non-commutative geometric framework to an interpretation of the moduli space of vacua of certain deformations of N=4 super Yang-Mills theories. We present a simple worldsheet…
