Two dimensional conformal field theories with large central charge and a sparse low-lying spectrum are expected to admit a classical string holographic dual. We construct a large class of such theories employing permutation orbifold…
We examine the large $N$ 1/4-BPS spectrum of the symmetric orbifold CFT Sym$^N(M)$ deformed to the supergravity point in moduli space for $M= K3$ and $T^4$. We consider refinement under both left- and right-moving $SU(2)_R$ symmetries of…
We study a class of bivariate deformed Hermite polynomials and some of their properties using classical analytic techniques and the Wigner map. We also prove the positivity of certain determinants formed by the deformed polynomials. Along…
We investigate deformations of skew group algebras that arise from a finite cyclic group acting on a polynomial ring in positive characteristic, where characteristic divides the order of the group. We allow deformations which deform both…
We study convolution algebras associated with Heckman-Opdam polynomials. For root systems of type BC we derive three continuous classes of positive convolution algebras (hypergroups) by interpolating the double coset convolution structures…
We study superconformal interfaces between N=(1,1) supersymmetric sigma models on tori, which preserve a u(1)^{2d} current algebra. Their fusion is non-singular and, using parallel transport on CFT deformation space, it can be reduced to…
In this paper, we study relative deformations of maps into a family of K\"ahler manifolds whose images are divisors. We show that if the map satisfies a condition called semiregularity, then it allows relative deformations if and only if…
We investigate a smoothing property for strongly-continuous operator semigroups, akin to ultracontractivity in parabolic evolution equations. Specifically, we establish the stability of this property under certain relatively bounded…
We show for bicommutative graded connected Hopf algebras that a certain distributive (Laplace) subgroup of the convolution monoid of 2-cochains parameterizes certain well behaved Hopf algebra deformations. Using the Laplace group, or its…
In this article we prove that quasi-multiplicative (with respect to the usual length function) mappings on the permutation group $\SSn$ (or, more generally, on arbitrary amenable Coxeter groups), determined by self-adjoint contractions…
We investigate supergroups with Grassmann parameters replaced by odd Clifford parameters. The connection with non-anticommutative supersymmetry is discussed. A Berezin-like calculus for odd Clifford variables is introduced. Fermionic…
We investigate deformations of a skew group algebra that arise from a finite group acting on a polynomial ring. When the characteristic of the underlying field divides the order of the group, a new type of deformation emerges that does not…
For a locally compact, totally disconnected group $G$, a subgroup $H$ and a character $\chi:H \to \mathbb{C}^{\times}$ we define a Hecke algebra $\mathcal{H}_\chi$ and explore the connection between commutativity of $\mathcal{H}_\chi$ and…
We apply Heegaard Floer homology to study deformations of singularities of plane algebraic curves. Our main result provides an obstruction to the existence of a deformation between two singularities. Generalizations include the case of…
We study the combinatorial structure of the irreducible characters of the classical groups ${\rm GL}_n(\mathbb{C})$, ${\rm SO}_{2n+1}(\mathbb{C})$, ${\rm Sp}_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$, ${\rm SO}_{2n}(\mathbb{C})$ and the "non-classical" odd…
We note that, though nonanticommutative deformations of Minkowski supersymmetric theories do not respect the reality condition and seem to lead to non-Hermitian Hamiltonians H, the latter belong to the class of crypto-Hermitian (or…
Quadratic descent of hermitian and skew hermitian forms over division algebras with involution of the first kind in arbitrary characteristic is investigated and a criterion, in terms of systems of quadratic forms, is obtained. A refined…
We study conjugacy relations on semigroups and monoids, focusing on the relation $a \cfn b$, defined by the existence of $g,h \in S^1$ such that $ag = gb$, $bh = ha$, $hag = b$, and $gbh = a$. This notion emerged as one that yields…
A semigroup generated by two dimensional $C^{1+\alpha}$ contracting maps is considered. We call a such semigroup regular if the maximum $K$ of the conformal dilatations of generators, the maximum $l$ of the norms of the derivatives of…
In this paper we present a method to obtain deformations of families of matrix-valued orthogonal polynomials that are associated to the representation theory of compact Gelfand pairs. These polynomials have the Sturm-Liouville property in…
