Recently Berman and Perry constructed a four-dimensional M-theory effective action which manifests SL(5) U-duality. Here we propose an underlying differential geometry of it, under the name `SL(5) U-geometry' which generalizes the ordinary Riemannian geometry in an SL(5) compatible manner. We introduce a `semi-covarian…

We construct a duality manifest gravitational theory for the special linear group, SL(N){\mathbf{SL}(N)} with N4N{\neq 4}. The spacetime is formally extended, to have the dimension 12N(N1)\textstyle{\frac{1}{2}} N(N-1), yet is `gauged'. Consequently the theory is subject to a section condition. We introduce a semi-covariant de…

The classical Rankin-Cohen brackets are bi-differential operators from C(R)×C(R)C^\infty(\mathbb R)\times C^\infty(\mathbb R) into C(R) C^\infty(\mathbb R). They are covariant for the (diagonal) action of SL(2,R){\rm SL}(2,\mathbb R) through principal series representations. We construct generalizations of these operators, replacing…

We give an example of a subgroup of SL(2,C) which is a strictly ascending HNN extension of a non-abelian finitely generated free group F. In particular, we exhibit a free group F in SL(2,C) of rank 6 which is conjugate to a proper subgroup of itself. This answers positively a question of Drutu and Sapir. The main ingre…

Inspired by the Bruhat-Tits building of SLn_n(Qp\mathbb Q_p), we construct a complete metric space X with an action of the tame automorphism group of the affine space Tame(KnK^n). The points in X are certain monomial valuations, and X admits a natural structure of Euclidean CW-complex of dimension n-1. When n = 3, and…

Motivated by the application of real-time pricing in e-commerce platforms, we consider the problem of revenue-maximization in a setting where the seller can leverage contextual information describing the customer's history and the product's type to predict her valuation of the product. However, her true valuation is un…
