A complex manifold $X$ of dimension $n$ together with an ample vector bundle $E$ on it will be called a {\sf generalized polarized variety}. The adjoint bundle of the pair $(X,E)$ is the line bundle $K_X + det(E)$. We study the positivity…

We consider the integral and derivative operators of tempered fractional calculus, and examine their analytic properties. We discover connections with the classical Riemann-Liouville fractional calculus and demonstrate how the operators may…

The perturbative expansion of tensorial field theories in Feynman graphs can be interpreted as weighted generating series of some piecewise linear varieties. This simple fact establishes a link between two a priori distinct fields: the…

In this paper we formalize and prove a conjecture of Braverman concerning integrals of the Chern polynomial of the tangent bundle to affine Laumon spaces. This provides the computation of the Nekrasov partition function of N = 2 gauge…

We prove sharp inequalities for determinants of Toeplitz operators and twisted Laplace operators on the two-sphere, generalizing the Moser-Trudinger-Onofri inequality. In particular a sharp version of conjectures of Gillet-Soule and Fang…

This paper reviews recent work on a new geometric object called a bundle gerbe and discusses some new examples arising in quantum field theory. One application is to an Atiyah-Patodi-Singer index theory construction of the bundle of…

Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional manifold with a torsion free affine connection $\nabla$ and let $T^*M$ be the cotangent bundle. In this paper, we consider some of the geometrical aspect of a twisted Riemannian extension which provide a link…

We study a generalized boundary rigidity problem, which investigates whether the areas of embedded minimal surfaces can uniquely determine a Riemannian manifold with boundary. We prove that for a conformal perturbation of an analytic metric…

In this work, we fully explore three refined convergence structures of the lowest-order rectangular Raviart-Thomas element in solving the Laplace eigenvalue problem. Firstly, the scheme possesses a property of supercloseness between the…

We introduce a new family of refined Sobolev-Malliavin spaces that capture the integrability in time of the Malliavin derivative. We consider duality in these spaces and derive a Burkholder type inequality in a dual norm. The theory we…

The Springer numbers, introduced by Arnold, are generalizations of Euler numbers in the sense of Coxeter groups. They appear as the row sums of a double triangular array $(v_{n,k})$ of integers, $1\leq|k|\leq n$, defined recursively by a…

We give a new proof the arithmetic Hilbert-Samuel theorem by using classical reductions in the theory of coherent sheaves, a direct proof in the case of the projective space and the conservation of some numerical invariants, called…

We state Asymptotic Expansion and Growth Rate conjectures for the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants of arbitrary framed links in 3-manifolds, and we prove these conjectures for the natural links in mapping tori of finite-order…

Motivated by suggestions of Paolo Cotta-Ramusino's work at the physical level of rigor relating BF theory to the Donaldson polynomials, we provide a construction applicable to the Turaev/Viro and Crane/Yetter invariants of *a priori* finer…

We study the regularized determinants ${\rm det}\, \Delta$ of various self-adjoint extensions of symmetric Laplacians acting in spinor bundles over compact Riemann surfaces with flat singular metrics $|\omega|^2$, where $\omega$ is a…

In [Tame_quivers_and_affine_bases_I], we give a Ringel-Hall algebra approach to the canonical bases in the symmetric affine cases. In this paper, we extend the results to general symmetrizable affine cases by using Ringel-Hall algebras of…

By considering the projectivized spectrum of the Jacobi operator, we introduce the concept of projective Osserman manifold in both the affine and in the pseudo-Riemannian settings. If M is an affine projective Osserman manifold, then the…

The standard evaluation of the partition function $Z$ of Schwarz's topological field theory results in the Ray--Singer analytic torsion. Here we present an alternative evaluation which results in Z=1. Mathematically, this amounts to a novel…

We extend Turaev's theory of Euler structures and torsion invariants on 3-manifolds to the case of vector fields having generic behavior on the boundary. This allows to easily define gluings of Euler structures and to develop a completely…

We introduce the concept of a base conformal warped product of two pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. We also define a subclass of this structure called as a special base conformal warped product. After, we explicitly mention many of the relevant…
