We present a statistical mechanical model whose random variables are solid partitions, i.e. Young diagrams built by stacking up four dimensional hypercubes. Equivalently, it can be viewed as the model of random tessellations of ${\bf…

Simon Donaldson and Ivan Smith recently studied symplectic surfaces in symplectic 4-manifolds X by introducing an invariant DS associated to any Lefschetz fibration on blowups of X which counts holomorphic sections of a relative Hilbert…

We compute the alpha invariant of any smooth complex projective spin complete intersection of complex dimension $1 \; ({\rm mod} \; 4)$. We prove that the alpha invariant depends only on the total degree and Pontryagin classes. Our findings…

We consider a subdivision invariant action for dynamically triangulated random surfaces that was recently proposed (R.V. Ambartzumian et. al., Phys. Lett. B 275 (1992) 99) and show that it is unphysical: The grand canonical partition…

We use Donaldson hypersurfaces to construct pseudo-cycles which define Gromov-Witten invariants for any symplectic manifold which agree with the invariants in the cases where transversality could be achieved by perturbing the almost complex…

The paper determines the change of moduli spaces of rank $2$ sheaves on surfaces with $p_g=0$ under change of polarization and the corresponding change of the Donaldson invariants. In this revised version we have made some minor stylistic…

This paper considers a simple geometric construction, called the Pentagram map. The pentagram map, performed on N-gons, gives rise to a birational mapping on the space of all N-gons. This paper finds what conjecturally are all the…

In the paper, we study the wall-crossing phenomenon of reduced open Gromov-Witten invariants on K3 surfaces with rigid special Lagrangian boundary condition. As a corollary, we derived the multiple cover formula for the reduced open…

In earlier work, we constructed invariants of irreducible representations of the Kauffman skein algebra of a surface. We introduce here an inverse construction, which to a set of possible invariants associates an irreducible representation…

We compute the equivariant K-theoretic Donaldson--Thomas invariants of $[\mathbb{C}^2/\mu_r]\times \mathbb{C}$ using factorization and rigidity techniques. For this, we develop a generalization of Okounkov's factorization technique that…

Casson-type invariants emerging from Donaldson theory over certain negative definite 4-manifolds were recently suggested by Andrei Teleman. These are defined by a count of a zero-dimensional moduli space of flat instantons. Motivated by the…

We prove the transformation formula of Donaldson-Thomas (DT) invariants counting two dimensional torsion sheaves on Calabi-Yau 3-folds under flops. The error term is described by the Dedekind eta function and the Jacobi theta function, and…

In this paper, we study a series of $L^2$-torsion invariants from the viewpoint of the mapping class group of a surface. We establish some vanishing theorems for them. Moreover we explicitly calculate the first two invariants and compare…

Motives of Brauer-Severi schemes of Cayley-smooth algebras associated to homogeneous superpotentials are used to compute inductively the motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants of the corresponding Jacobian algebras. This approach can be used…

We modify the standard perfect symmetric obstruction theory for moduli spaces of simple perfect complexes, to the situation of complexes on abelian threefolds with fixed determinant and Fourier-Mukai determinant. As outcome we attach…

Particles moving inside a fluid near, and interacting with, invariant manifolds is a common phenomenon in a wide variety of applications. One elementary question is whether we can determine once a particle has entered a neighbourhood of an…

Let $C$ be a smooth curve embedded in a smooth quasi-projective threefold $Y$, and let $Q^n_C=\textrm{Quot}_n(\mathscr I_C)$ be the Quot scheme of length $n$ quotients of its ideal sheaf. We show the identity…

This review gives an introduction to cohomological Donaldson-Thomas theory: the study of a cohomology theory on moduli spaces of sheaves on Calabi-Yau threefolds, and of complexes in 3-Calabi-Yau categories, categorifying their numerical DT…

We work on a projective threefold $X$ which satisfies the Bogomolov-Gieseker conjecture of Bayer-Macr\`i-Toda, such as $\mathbb P^3$ or the quintic threefold. We prove certain moduli spaces of 2-dimensional torsion sheaves on $X$ are smooth…

We give an alternative construction for a family of partition generating functions due to Kanade and Russell. In our alternative construction, we use ordinary partitions instead of jagged partitions. We also present new generating functions…
