The numerical range of a matrix is studied geometrically via the cone of positive semidefinite matrices (or semidefinite cone for short). In particular it is shown that the feasible set of a two-dimensional linear matrix inequality (LMI),…

Possible irreducible holonomy algebras $\g\subset\sp(2m,\Real)$ of odd Riemannian supermanifolds and irreducible subalgebras $\g\subset\gl(n,\Real)$ with non-trivial first skew-symmetric prolongations are classified. An approach to the…
Suppose $E$ is an end of an irreducible, properly convex, real-projective $n$-manifold $M$. If $\pi_1E$ contains a subgroup of finite index isomorphic to ${\mathbb Z}^{n-1}$, and $E\hookrightarrow M$ is $\pi_1$-injective, then $E$ is a…
We define the Higgs algebra $\mathcal{H}_\P1$ of the projective line, as a convolution algebra of constructible functions on the global nilpotent cone $\underline{\Lambda}_\P1$, a lagrangian substack of the Higgs bundle $T^*\Coh_\P1$, where…
The transcendental Hodge lattice of a projective manifold $M$ is the smallest Hodge substructure in $p$-th cohomology which contains all holomorphic $p$-forms. We prove that the direct sum of all transcendental Hodge lattices has a natural…
In this paper we count the number of isomorphism classes of geometrically indecomposable quasi-parabolic structures of a given type on a given vector bundle on the projective line over a finite field. We give a conjectural cohomological…
This paper studies the relation between two notions of holonomy on a conformal manifold. The first is the conformal holonomy, defined to be the holonomy of the normal tractor connection. The second is the holonomy of the Fefferman-Graham…
We discuss the application of random projections to conic programming: notably linear, second-order and semidefinite programs. We prove general approximation results on feasibility and optimality using the framework of formally real Jordan…
In this paper we provide an efficient computation of the projection onto the cone generated by the epigraph of the perspective of any convex lower semicontinuous function. Our formula requires solving only two scalar equations involving the…
An important example of a model category is the category of unbounded chain complexes of R-modules, which has as its homotopy category the derived category of the ring R. This example shows that traditional homological algebra is…
The aim of this paper is to study the group of isomorphism classes of torsors of finite flat group schemes of rank 2 over a commutative ring $R$. This, in particular, generalises the group of quadratic algebras (free or projective), which…
This is a written-up version of eight introductory lectures to the Hodge theory of projective manifolds. The table of contents should be self-explanatory. The only exception is section 8 where I discuss, in a simple example, a technique for…
We classify projective manifolds with flat holomorphic conformal structures.
This note fills a hole in the author's previous paper ``Ricci-Flat Holonomy: a Classification'', by dealing with irreducible holonomy algebras that are subalgebras or real forms of $\mbb{C} \oplus \mf{spin}(10,\mbb{C})$. These all turn out…
This paper presents a complete classification of left-invariant affine and projective vector fields on five-dimensional simply connected nilpotent Lie groups endowed with Riemannian metrics. Building on the classification of left-invariant…
The purpose of this note is to show that a connection with closed skewsymmetric torsion and reducible holonomy admits a locally defined Riemannian submersion together with a projected geometry on the base. We reframe known submersion…
Let $G=G_1 \times G_2$ be a finite group. We know that the second cohomology group $H^2(G,\mathbb C^\times)$ is isomorphic to $H^2(G_1,\mathbb C^\times) \times H^2(G_2,\mathbb C^\times) \times Hom(G_1/G_1' \otimes_\mathbb Z G_2/G_2',…
This paper presents a method for constructing flat deformations of associative algebras. We will refer to this method as method two because it is a generalisation of the method obtained in [1]. The deformations obtained using the first two…
We show that the standard definitions of Sasaki structures have elegant and simplifying interpretations in terms of projective differential geometry. For Sasaki-Einstein structures we use projective geometry to provide a resolution of such…
