In this article, we give all the Weitzenb\"ock-type formulas among the geometric first order differential operators on the spinor fields with spin $j+1/2$ over Riemannian spin manifolds of constant curvature. Then we find an explicit…
We give a new construction of cyclic homology of an associative algebra A that does not involve Connes' differential. Our approach is based on an extended version of the complex \Omega A, of noncommutative differential forms on A, and is…
A skew Calabi-Yau algebra is a generalization of a Calabi-Yau algebra which allows for a non-trivial Nakayama automorphism. We prove three homological identities about the Nakayama automorphism and give several applications. The identities…
We show that on every Spin(7) manifold there always exists a unique linear connection with totally skew-symmetric torsion preserving a nontrivial spinor and the Spin(7) structure. We express its torsion and the Riemannian scalar curvature…
Cubic blocks are studied assembled from linear operators $\mathcal R$ acting in the tensor product of $d$ linear "spin" spaces. Such operator is associated with a linear transformation $A$ in a vector space over a field $F$ of a finite…
We introduce a notion of twisted pure spinor in order to characterize, in a unified way, all the special Riemannian holonomy groups just as a classical pure spinor characterizes the special K\"ahler holonomy. Motivated by certain curvature…
We give a differential-geometric construction of compact manifolds with holonomy $\mathrm{Spin}(7)$ which is based on Joyce's second construction of compact $\mathrm{Spin}(7)$-manifolds in \cite{Joyce00} and Kovalev's gluing construction of…
This paper continues the authors' program of studying mirror symmetry via log geometry and toric degenerations, relating affine manifolds with singularities, log Calabi-Yau spaces, and toric degenerations of Calabi-Yaus. The main focus of…
In recent work, we initiated a research program aimed at the systematic investigation of quantum superintegrable systems describing the interaction of two non-relativistic spin-$1/2$ particles in three-dimensional Euclidean space. In that…
We extend the formalism of embedded spin networks and spin foams to include topological data that encode the underlying three-manifold or four-manifold as a branched cover. These data are expressed as monodromies, in a way similar to the…
Spectral flow, spacetime supersymmetry, topological twists, chiral primaries related to marginal deformations, mirror symmetry: these are important consequences of the worldsheet N=2 superconformal symmetry of strings on Calabi-Yau…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a connected cochain DG algebra such that its underlying graded algebra $\mathcal{A}^{\#}$ is the graded skew polynomial algebra $$k\langle x_1,x_2, x_3\rangle/\left(\begin{array}{ccc} x_1x_2+x_2x_1\\ x_2x_3+x_3x_2\\…
We investigate hetrotic string theory on special holonomy manifolds including exceptional holonomy G_2 and Spin(7) manifolds. The gauge symmetry is F_4 in a G_2 manifold compactification, and so(9) in a Spin(7) manifold compactification. We…
The well known conformal covariance of the Dirac operator acting on spinor fields over a semi Riemannian spin manifold does not extend to powers thereof in general. For odd powers one has to add lower order curvature correction terms in…
A cohomology theory associated to a holomorphic Poisson structure is the hypercohomology of a bi-complex where one of the two operators is the classical $\overline\partial$-operator, while the other operator is the adjoint action of the…
We introduce the notion of skew-holomorphic Lie algebroid on a complex manifold, and explore some cohomologies theories that one can associate to it. Examples are given in terms of holomorphic Poisson structures of various sorts.
The spectral theory of the Karoubi operator due to Cuntz and Quillen is extended to general mixed (duchain) complexes, that is, chain complexes which are simultaneously cochain complexes. Connes' coboundary map B can be viewed as a…
Starting from the superconformal algebras associated with $G_2$ manifolds, I extend the algebra to the manifolds with spin(7) holonomy. I show how the mirror symmetry in manifolds with spin(7) holonomy arises as the automorphism in the…
We classify 7-dimensional cocalibrated $\G_2$-manifolds with parallel characteristic torsion and non-abelian holonomy. All these spaces admit a metric connection $\nabla^{\mathrm{c}}$ with totally skew-symmetric torsion and a spinor field…
Weighted Rota-Baxter operators on associative algebras are closely related to modified Yang-Baxter equations, splitting of algebras, weighted infinitesimal bialgebras, and play an important role in mathematical physics. For any $\lambda \in…
