This paper collects and extends the lectures I gave at the "XXIV International Fall Workshop on Geometry and Physics" held in Zaragoza (Spain) August 31 - September 4, 2015. Within these lectures I review the formulation of Quantum…
These lecture notes provide an informal introduction to the theory of nonnegative polynomials and sums of squares. We highlight the history and some recent developments, especially the new connections with classical (complex) algebraic…
The present review aims both to offer some motivations and mathematical prerequisites for a study of NCG from the viewpoint of a theoretical physicist and to show a few applications to matrix theory and results obtained. Lectures given by…
The aim of this short lecture series is to expose the students to the beautiful theory of lattices by, on one hand, demonstrating various basic ideas that appear in this theory and, on the other hand, formulating some of the celebrated…
The purpose of this note is to supply an upper and a lower bound (which are in general sharp) for the $h$-vector of a level algebra which is relatively compressed with respect to any arbitrary level algebra $A$. The useful concept of…
This note is based on a lecture delivered by the author at the Second Conference on Differential Geometry, held in Fez in October 2024. It offers an accessible introduction to biharmonic and biconservative submanifolds, exploring the…
Divided into three parts, the first marks out enormous geometric issues with the notion of quasi-freenss of an algebra and seeks to replace this notion of formal smoothness with an approximation by means of a minimal unital commutative…
This text was written and used for a MAP Summer School at the University of Genova, August 28 to September 2, 2006. Available since then on the web site of the second author, it has been used and referenced by several colleagues working in…
Two lectures given at the UK-Japan Winter School on 'Geometry and Analysis Towards Quantum Theory', Durham, January 2004.
This is an expanded and updated version of a talk given at the Conference on Topics in Geometry and Physics at the University of Southern California, November 6, 1992. It is a survey talk, aimed at mathematicians AND physicists, which…
Further extensions are given to the fixed point result (for implicit contractions) due to Altun and Simsek [Fixed Point Th. Appl., Volume 2010, Article ID 621469]. Some connections with related statements in the area due to Agarwal,…
This is an expanded version of talks given by the author at the Trieste Spring School on Supergravity and Superstrings in April of 1997 and at the accompanying workshop. The manuscript is intended to be a mini-review of Matrix Theory. The…
These are introductory lecture notes on complex geometry, Calabi-Yau manifolds and toric geometry. We first define basic concepts of complex and Kahler geometry. We then proceed with an analysis of various definitions of Calabi-Yau…
These lecture notes are based on the second course in a series of lectures at the Spring school "Non-archimedean geometry and Eigenvarieties" in March 2023 in Heidelberg. The objective of the first three courses was to give an introduction…
An introduction to quantum groups and non-commutative differential calculus (Lecture at the III Workshop on Differential Geometry, Granada, September 1994)
These are notes for my Takagi lecture at the University of Tokyo in November, 2016. I survey what is known about simple modules for reductive algebraic groups. The emphasis is on characteristic p>0 and Lusztig's character formula. I explain…
These lectures briefly review our current understanding of classical and quantum gravity in three spacetime dimensions, concentrating on the quantum mechanics of closed universes and the (2+1)-dimensional black hole. Three formulations of…
These notes grew out of two lectures I have given on CAT(0) cube complexes. I've tried to keep the material elementary and self-contained in order to keep the material easily accessible and to provide an elementary introduction on the topic…
Differential graded (DG) commutative algebra provides powerful techniques for proving theorems about modules over commutative rings. These notes are a somewhat colloquial introduction to these techniques. In order to provide some motivation…
An extended summary of the lecture course given at the V School on Geometry and Physics, Bia\l owe\.za 2016, in which an algebraic approach to differentiation and integration that is characteristic for non-commutative geometry is described.
