We compactify the classical moduli variety of principally polarized abelian varieties of complex dimension by attaching the moduli of flat tori of real dimensions at most in an explicit manner. Equivalently, we explicitly determine the Gromov-Hausdorff limits of principally polarized abelian varieties. Th…
We give a quadratic lower bound on the dimension of the space of conjugacy classes of subgroups of SL(n,R) that are limits under conjugacy of the diagonal subgroup. We give the first explicit examples of abelian n-1 dimensional subgroups of SL(n,R) which are not such a limit, however all such abelian groups are limits …
New theory connects non-abelian bundle gerbes to abelian ones.
We give a simple proof of the finite presentation of Sela's limit groups by using free actions on R^n-trees. We first prove that Sela's limit groups do have a free action on an R^n-tree. We then prove that a finitely generated group having a free action on an R^n-tree can be obtained from free abelian groups and surfac…
Study abelian varieties' Weil-Petersson metric asymptotics.
We consider the Reidemeister torsion associated with SL(2, C)-representations of a knot group. A bifurcation point in the SL(2, C)-character variety of a knot group is a character which is given by both an abelian SL(2, C)-representation and a non-abelian one. We show that there exist limits of the non-acyclic Reidemei…
Study on vortex sheet formation in Abelian gauge theories.
Study of large mass limits of G2 and Calabi-Yau monopoles on specific manifolds.
For certain manifolds, nonnegative Ricci curvature limits dimension and forces almost abelian fundamental group.
We derive general expressions for the Kaehler form of the L^2-metric in terms of standard 2-forms on vortex moduli spaces. In the case of abelian vortices in gauged linear sigma-models, this allows us to compute explicitly the Kaehler class of the L^2-metric. As an application we compute the total volume of the moduli …
Many physical theories, including notably string theory, require non-abelian higher gauge fields defining higher holonomy. Previous approaches to such higher connections on categorified principal bundles require these to be fake flat. This condition, however, renders them locally gauge equivalent to connections on abel…
We study the collapsing behaviour of Ricci-flat Kahler metrics on a projective Calabi-Yau manifold which admits an abelian fibration, when the volume of the fibers approaches zero. We show that away from the critical locus of the fibration the metrics collapse with locally bounded curvature, and along the fibers the re…
For a certain maximal unipotent family of Abelian varieties over the punctured disc, we show that after a base change, one can complete the family over a disc such that the whole degeneration can be simultaneously balanced embedded into a projective space by the theta functions. Then we study the relationship between t…
We show that the Masur-Veech volumes and area Siegel-Veech constants can be obtained by intersection numbers on the strata of Abelian differentials with prescribed orders of zeros. As applications, we evaluate their large genus limits and compute the saddle connection Siegel-Veech constants for all strata. We also show…
When a solenoid is embedded in three space, its complement is an open three manifold. We discuss the geometry and fundamental groups of such manifolds, and show that the complements of different solenoids (arising from different inverse limits) have different fundamental groups. Embeddings of the same solenoid can give…
We introduce a notion of measuring scales for quantum abelian gauge systems. At each measuring scale a finite dimensional affine space stores information about the evaluation of the curvature on a discrete family of surfaces. Affine maps from the spaces assigned to finer scales to those assigned to coarser scales play …
Constructs non-abelian G2-instantons on ALC members of B7 family.
Study of Veech surfaces and their twist tori on moduli spaces of abelian differentials.
We study the limiting behaviour of solutions to abelian vortex equations when the volume of the underlying Riemann surface grows to infinity. We prove that the solutions converge smoothly away from finitely many points. The proof relies on a priori estimates for functions satisfying generalised Kazdan-Warner equations.…

Study Bergman kernel metrics on degenerating hyperelliptic surfaces.
We prove an additivity property for the normalized Seiberg-Witten invariants with respect to the universal abelian cover of those 3-manifolds, which are obtained via negative rational Dehn surgeries along connected sum of algebraic knots. Although the statement is purely topological, we use the theory of complex singul…
Chern-Simons theory on a closed contact three-manifold is studied when the Lie group for gauge transformations is compact, connected and abelian. A rigorous definition of an abelian Chern-Simons partition function is derived using the Faddeev-Popov gauge fixing method. A symplectic abelian Chern-Simons partition functi…
Introduces semi-abelian generalized complex structures.
Generalizing the theorem of Green--Lazarsfeld and Gromov, we classify Kaehler groups of deficiency at least two. As a consequence we see that there are no Kaehler groups of even and strictly positive deficiency. With the same arguments we prove that Kaehler groups that are non-Abelian and are limit groups in the sense …
The paper describes relations between Liouville type theorems for solutions of a periodic elliptic equation (or a system) on an abelian cover of a compact Riemannian manifold and the structure of the dispersion relation for this equation at the edges of the spectrum. Here one says that the Liouville theorem holds if th…
Study rigidity of Ricci flow limits on nilpotent bundles with zero curvature.
We discuss a general framework for cutting constructions and reinterpret in this setting the work on non-Abelian symplectic cuts by Weitsman. We then introduce two analogous non-Abelian modification constructions for hyperkähler manifolds: one modifies the topology significantly, the other gives metric deformations. We…
Consider degenerations of Abelian differentials with prescribed number and multiplicity of zeros and poles. Motivated by the theory of limit linear series, we define twisted canonical divisors on pointed nodal curves to study degenerate differentials, give dimension bounds for their moduli spaces, and establish smootha…

Abstract: Proves non-abelian group of equivariant concordance.
This is the first in a planned series of papers giving an alternate approach to Zlil Sela's work on the Tarski problems. The present paper is an exposition of work of Kharlampovich-Myasnikov and Sela giving a parametrization of Hom(G,F) where G is a finitely generated group and F is a non-abelian free group.
Harmonic almost complex structures on specific Lie groups and solvmanifolds identified.
This paper is a sequel to arXiv:1108.0967. We further study Gromov-Hausdorff collapsing limits of Ricci-flat Kähler metrics on abelian fibered Calabi-Yau manifolds. Firstly, we show that in the same setup as arXiv:1108.0967, if the dimension of the base manifold is one, the limit metric space is homeomorphic to the bas…
