Holomorphic automorphisms on hyperkähler manifolds with high entropy are Kummer examples.

New hyperKähler orbifolds of Kummer type discovered.

We demonstrate how by using the intersection theory to calculate the cohomology of $G_2$-manifolds constructed by using the generalized Kummer construction. For one example we find the generators of the rational cohomology ring and describe the product structure.

In this work we describe a method to reconstruct the braid monodromy of the preimage of a curve by a Kummer cover. This method is interesting, since it combines two techniques, namely, the reconstruction of a highly non-generic braid monodromy with a systematic method to go from a non-generic to a generic braid monodro…

We give an alternative proof of a result of Cantat and Dupont, showing that any automorphism of a K3 surface with measure of maximal entropy in the Lebesgue class must be a Kummer example. Our method exploits the existence of Ricci-flat metrics on K3s and also covers the non-projective case.

In this article we introduce a method to construct $\rm{G}_2$-instantons on $\rm{G}_2$-manifolds arising from Joyce's generalised Kummer construction. The method is based on gluing ASD instantons over ALE spaces to flat bundles on $\rm{G}_2$-orbifolds of the form $T^7/ Γ$. We use this construction to produce non-trivia…

Smooth family of G2-instantons over a Kummer construction.

In this paper, we study asymptotic behavior of projective embeddings of Kummer varieties given by theta functions, and their amoebas. We prove that a Lagrangian fibration of the Kummer variety can be approximated by moment maps of the projective spaces.

We prove that a generic complex deformation of a generalized Kummer variety contains no complex analytic tori.

Let $X$ be a hyperkaehler manifold. Trianalytic subvarieties of $X$ are subvarieties which are complex analytic with respect to all complex structures induced by the hyperkaehler structure. Given a 2-dimensional complex torus $T$, the Hilbert scheme $T^{[n]}$ classifying zero-dimensional subschemes of $T$ admits a hype…

Extends Masur's divergence theorem to complex tori and Kummer surfaces.

In this paper we study a functional equation associated to the Kummer's equation (K) of the trilogarithm. Then we apply our results to web geometry and to characterize the functions solution of (K).

We classify compact Kähler manifolds $M$ of dimension $n\geq 3$ on which acts a lattice of an almost simple real Lie group of rank $\geq n-1$. This provides a new line in the so-called Zimmer program, and characterizes certain type of complex tori by a property of their automorphisms groups.

Extends Kummer's theory to singular surfaces for line congruences.

New 5-manifold found with zero Ricci curvature.

The paper explores the geometry of the Spence-Kummer trilogarithm equation and its Galois analogue.

In an article of 1967 W. Edge gave a description of some beautiful geometric properties of the Kummer surface complete intersection of three quadrics in $\mathbb P^5$. Working on it, R. Dye proved that all its osculating spaces have dimension less than the expected 5. Here we discuss these results, also at the light of…

Given a compact constant scalar curvature Kaehler orbifold, with nontrivial holomorphic vector fields, whose singularities admit a local ALE Kaehler Ricci-flat resolution, we find sufficient conditions on the position of the singular points to ensure the existence of a global constant scalar curvature Kaehler desingula…

Study connects K3 surfaces to holomorphic metrics, solving complex structure variation.

In this paper, we study the multi-asset Black-Scholes model in terms of the importance that the correlation parameter space (equivalent to an $N$ dimensional hypercube) has in the solution of the pricing problem. We show that inside of this hypercube there is a surface, called the Kummer surface $Σ_K$, where the determ…

The $\mathcal D$-groupoid of symmetries is minimal under specific conditions.

We construct F-structures on a Bott manifold and on some other manifolds obtained by Kummer-type constructions. We also prove that if M=E#X, where E is a fiber bundle with structure group G and a fiber admitting a G-invariant metric of non-negative sectional curvature and X admits an F-structure with one trivial coveri…

Superposition rules form a class of functions that describe general solutions of systems of first-order ordinary differential equations in terms of generic families of particular solutions and certain constants. In this work we extend this notion and other related ones to systems of higher-order differential equations …

This is an expository paper which aims to give a simple proof of the existence of Ricci-flat metrics on certain K3 surfaces, as an illustration of general "glueing" techniques.

Formula derived for $G_2$-manifolds, showing moduli spaces are incomplete.

Two new proofs provide Eguchi-Hanson metrics as ALE bubbles for Kummer constructions of K3 metrics.

Investigates webs related to cluster algebras and polylogarithms.

By carrying out a rational transformation on the base curve $\mathbb{CP}^1$ of the Seiberg-Witten curve for $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric pure $\mathrm{SU}(2)$-gauge theory, we obtain a family of Jacobian elliptic K3 surfaces of Picard rank 17. The isogeny relating the Seiberg-Witten curve for pure $\mathrm{SU}(2)$-ga…

We give a simple and uniform construction of essentially all known deformation classes of gravitational instantons with ALF, ALG or ALH asymptotics and nonzero injectivity radius. We also construct new ALH Ricci flat metrics asymptotic to the product of a real line with a flat 3-manifold.

It is demonstrated that the stationary Veselov-Novikov (VN) and the stationary modified Veselov-Novikov (mVN) equations describe one and the same class of surfaces in projective differential geometry: the so-called isothermally asymptotic surfaces, examples of which include arbitrary quadrics and cubics, quartics of Ku…

Computes a $ν$-invariant for Joyce's $G_2$-manifolds.

Consider a family of K3 surfaces over a hyperbolic curve (i.e. Riemann surface). Their second cohomology groups form a local system, and we show that its top Lyapunov exponent is a rational number. One proof uses the Kuga-Satake construction, which reduces the question to Hodge structures of weight 1. A second proof us…

The paper explores anti-hyperbolicity for hyperkähler varieties.

Study geodesics on K3 surfaces near orbifold limit.

We study complex surfaces with locally CAT(0) polyhedral Kahler metrics and construct such metrics on CP^2 with various orbifold structures. In particular, in relation to questions of Gromov and Davis-Moussong we construct such metrics on a compact quotient of the two-dimensional unite complex ball. In the course of th…

The calibration of a local volatility models to a given set of option prices is a classical problem of mathematical finance. It was considered in multiple papers where various solutions were proposed. In this paper an extension of the approach proposed in LiptonSepp2011 is developed by i) replacing a piecewise constant…

The paper constructs flat metrics on orbifolds and resolutions.

For a congruence of straight lines defined by a hypersurface in $R^{n+1}, n \geq 1,$ and a field of reflected directions created by a point source we define the notion of intensity in a tangent direction and introduce elementary symmetric functions $S_m, m=1, 2,...,n,$ of {\it principal intensities}. The problem of exi…

We study the partial resolutions of singularities related to Hilbert schemes of points on an affine space. Consider a quotient of a vector space $V$ by an action of a finite group $G$ of linear transforms. Under some additional assumptions, we prove that the partial desingularization of Hilbert type is smooth only if t…

We exhibit the traceless $SU(2)$ character variety of a 6-punctured 2-sphere as a 2-fold branched cover of ${\mathbb{C}}P^3$, branched over the singular Kummer surface, with the branch locus in $R(S^2,6)$ corresponding to the binary dihedral representations. This follows from an analysis of the map induced on $SU(2)$ c…

The 4-dimensional abstract Kummer variety K^4 with 16 nodes leads to the K3 surface by resolving the 16 singularities. Here we present a simplicial realization of this minimal resolution. Starting with a minimal 16-vertex triangulation of K^4 we resolve its 16 isolated singularities - step by step - by simplicial blowu…
