The study examines conditions for scalar curvature and Dirac operators on singular spaces.

A new method of singular reduction is extended from Poisson to Dirac manifolds. Then it is shown that the Dirac structures on the strata of the quotient coincide with those of the only other known singular Dirac reduction method.

Paper finds singular solutions for a specific physics problem on a sphere.

We prove the Fredholmness of Dirac operators of monopoles with Dirac-type singularities on oriented complete Riemannian $3$-folds, and we also calculate the $L^2$-indices of them.

Proves curvature comparison theorem for manifolds with conical singularities.

We describe two-dimensional potential Schrodinger and Dirac operators which are finite-gap at one energy level and have singular spectral curves. It appears that the singularities can be rather complicated. Such Dirac operators appear as the spectral curves of tori immersed into the three-space.

We call a singularity of a presymplectic form $ω$ removable in its graph if its graph extends to a smooth Dirac structure over the singularity. An example for this is the symplectic form of a magnetic monopole. A criterion for the removability of singularities is given in terms of regularizing functions for pure spinor…

The paper constructs solutions to a critical Dirac equation on spheres.

We survey the correct definition of a generalized Dirac operator on a Space--Time and the classical result about propagation of singularities. This says that light travels along light--like geodesics. Finally we show this is also true for generalized Dirac operators.

Study the pullbacks and blowups of Lie algebroids and related structures.

Existence of non-trivial monopoles on 3-spheres proven.

We prove an analogue of the Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence oncompact connected 3-folds that is fibered on orbifold Riemann surfaces and satisfy an integrability condition, which contains compact connected Sasakian 3-folds. We define mini-holomorphic bundles on such 3-folds and the algebraic Dirac-type singularities o…

Singular monopoles are nonabelian monopoles with prescribed Dirac-type singularities. All of them are delivered by the Nahm's construction. In practice, however, the effectiveness of the latter is limited to the cases of one or two singularities. We present an alternative construction of singular monopoles formulated i…

We study singular monopoles on open subsets in the $3$-dimensional Euclidean space. We give two characterizations of Dirac type singularities. One is given in terms of the growth order of the norms of sections which are invariant by the scattering map. The other is given in terms of the growth order of the norms of the…

We explain the correspondences between twisted monopoles with Dirac type singularity and polystable twisted mini-holomorphic bundles with Dirac type singularity on a 3-dimensional torus. We also explain that they are equivalent to polystable parabolic twisted difference modules on elliptic curves.

Uniform elliptic theory for Dirac operators on orbifold resolutions.

The purpose of this paper is to generalize the regular Optimal Reduction Theorem to general proper Dirac actions, formulated both in terms of point and orbit reduction. A comparison to general standard singular Dirac reduction is given emphasizing the desingularization role played by optimal reduction.

The paper studies Dirac operators and their solutions concentrating near singular sets.

$G_2$-monopoles are solutions to gauge theoretical equations on $G_2$-manifolds. If the $G_2$-manifolds under consideration are compact, then any irreducible $G_2$-monopole must have singularities. It is then important to understand which kind of singularities $G_2$-monopoles can have. We give examples (in the noncompa…

We develop analytical methods for nonlinear Dirac equations. Examples of such equations include Dirac-harmonic maps with curvature term and the equations describing the generalized Weierstrass representation of surfaces in three-manifolds. We provide the key analytical steps, i.e., small energy regularity and removable…

The paper shows how solutions of perturbed Dirac operators concentrate near singular sets.

Rigidity theorem for scalar curvature on odd-dimensional singular manifolds.

Abstract cone operators prove scalar curvature comparisons on singular manifolds.

The regular reduction of a Dirac manifold acted upon freely and properly by a Lie group is generalized to a nonfree action. For this, several facts about $G$-invariant vector fields and one-forms are shown.

Smooth bundles with rough data maintain Hodge kernel isomorphism.

This manuscript attempts to present a way in which the classical construction of the Dirac operator can be carried over to the setting of diffeology. A more specific aim is to describe a procedure for gluing together two usual Dirac operators and to explain in what sense the result is again a Dirac operator. Since vers…

We study the question of existence of a Riemannian metric of positive scalar curvature metric on manifolds with the Sullivan-Baas singularities. The manifolds we consider are Spin and simply connected. We prove an analogue of the Gromov-Lawson Conjecture for such manifolds in the case of particular type of singularitie…

The level curves of an analytic function germ almost always have bumps at unexpected points near the singularity. This profound discovery of N. A'Campo is fully explored in this paper for $f(z,w)\in \C\{z,w\}$, using the Newton-Puiseux infinitesimals and the notion of gradient canyon. Equally unexpected is the Dirac ph…

A new principle minimizes residual and introduces momentum to improve PDE solution dynamics.

We study a functional, whose critical points couple Dirac-harmonic maps from surfaces with a two form. The critical points can be interpreted as coupling the prescribed mean curvature equation to spinor fields. On the other hand, this functional also arises as part of the supersymmetric sigma model in theoretical physi…

Study of large mass limits of G2 and Calabi-Yau monopoles on specific manifolds.

In this paper, we discuss the general existence theory of Dirac-harmonic maps from closed surfaces via the heat flow for $α$-Dirac-harmonic maps and blow-up analysis. More precisely, given any initial map along which the Dirac operator has nontrivial minimal kernel, we first prove the short time existence of the heat f…

We describe an averaging procedure on a Dirac manifold, with respect to a class of compatible actions of a compact Lie group. Some averaging theorems on the existence of invariant realizations of Poisson structures around (singular) symplectic leaves are derived. We show that the construction of coupling Dirac structur…

We construct the spectral curve and the Baker--Akhiezer function for the Dirac operator which corresponds to the Clifford torus via the Weierstrass representation. By constructing this Baker--Akhiezer function we demonstrate a general procedure for constructing Dirac operators and their Baker--Akhiezer functions corres…

We introduce a functional that couples the nonlinear sigma model with a spinor field: $L=\int_M[|dφ|^2+(ψ,\Dψ)]$. In two dimensions, it is conformally invariant. The critical points of this functional are called Dirac-harmonic maps. We study some geometric and analytic aspects of such maps, in particular a removable si…

New bounds for Dirac eigenvalue involving boundary capacity.

In this paper we investigate the relation between complexified Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates and spectral network coordinates on Seiberg-Witten moduli space. The main technique is the comparison of exact expressions for the expectation value of 't Hooft defects in certain 4D $SU(2)$ $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theories. We der…

Proves Hadamard states for Dirac fields on manifolds with timelike boundaries.

The jet bundle description of time-dependent mechanics is revisited. The constraint algorithm for singular Lagrangians is discussed and an exhaustive description of the constraint functions is given. By means of auxiliary connections we give a basis of constraint functions in the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian sides. An ad…

The article studies deformations of $\mathbb Z_2$-harmonic spinors on 3-manifolds.

The paper constructs a complex for the Dirac operator in 4 dimensions.

We present a unified approach to constrained implicit Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems based on the introduced concept of Dirac algebroid. The latter is a certain almost Dirac structure associated with the Courant algebroid on the dual $E^\ast$ to a vector bundle $E$. If this almost Dirac structure is integrable (Dir…

We study the evolution equations for a regularized version of Dirac-harmonic maps from closed Riemannian surfaces. We establish the existence of a global weak solution for the regularized problem, which is smooth away from finitely many singularities. Moreover, we discuss the convergence of the evolution equations and …

We define a new invariant $w$ for hyperelliptic Lefschetz fibrations over closed oriented surfaces, which counts the number of Dirac braids included intrinsically in the monodromy, by using chart description introduced by the second author. As an application, we prove that two hyperelliptic Lefschetz fibrations of genu…

We study metrics with positive scalar curvatures in domains with corners and suggest possible extensions of the concept of positive scalar curvature to singular spaces.

We study general conditions under which the computations of the index of a perturbed Dirac operator $D_{s}=D+sZ$ localize to the singular set of the bundle endomorphism $Z$ in the semi-classical limit $s\to \infty$. We show how to use Witten's method to compute the index of $D$ by doing a combinatorial computation inv…

We construct the Nahm transform from finite energy instantons on the product of a real line and a three dimensional torus to Dirac-type singular monopoles on the dual torus. Moreover, we show the correspondence between the data which handle the asymptotic behavior of instantons at infinity and one of monopoles at singu…

This note surveys the well-known structure of G-manifolds and summarizes parts of two papers that have not yet appeared in print: one with joint with J. Bruning and F. W. Kamber, and another with I. Prokhorenkov. In particular, from a given manifold on which a compact Lie group acts smoothly, we construct a sequence of…
