The Langlands Program was launched in the late 60s with the goal of relating Galois representations and automorphic forms. In recent years a geometric version has been developed which leads to a mysterious duality between certain categories of sheaves on moduli spaces of (flat) bundles on algebraic curves. Three years …

A theory linking invariants, Floer homologies, and Higgs bundles.
Paper describes integrable structure of Hitchin moduli spaces.
Revisits Vafa-Witten theory, deriving new invariants and homologies.
The seven non euclidean geometries of the Thurston's geometrization program are proved to originate naturally from singularization morphisms and versal deformations on euclidean 3-manifolds generated in the frame of the Langlands global program. The Poincare conjecture for a 3-manifold appears as a particular case of t…
Through Cayley and Langlands type correspondences, we give a geometric description of the moduli spaces of real orthogonal and symplectic Higgs bundles of any signature in the regular fibres of the Hitchin fibration. As applications of our methods, we complete the concrete abelianization of real slices corresponding to…
We explain how, starting with a stack of D4-branes ending on an NS5-brane in type IIA string theory, one can, via T-duality and the topological-holomorphic nature of the relevant worldvolume theories, relate (i) the lattice models realized by Costello's 4d Chern-Simons theory, (ii) links in 3d analytically-continued Ch…
Constructs Lagrangian correspondences for Higgs bundles and holomorphic connections.
We give a geometric characterisation of the topological invariants associated to SO(m,m+1)-Higgs bundles through KO-theory and the Langlands correspondence between orthogonal and symplectic Hitchin systems. By defining the split orthogonal spectral data, we obtain a natural grading of the moduli space of SO(m,m+1)-Higg…
We study the moduli spaces of flat SL(r)- and PGL(r)-connections, or equivalently, Higgs bundles, on an algebraic curve. These spaces are noncompact Calabi-Yau orbifolds; we show that they can be regarded as mirror partners in two different senses. First, they satisfy the requirements laid down by Strominger-Yau-Zaslow…
New Langlands duality conjectures for 3-manifold skein modules.
We construct and study a closed, two-dimensional, quasi-topological (0,2) gauged sigma model with target space a smooth G-manifold, where G is any compact and connected Lie group. When the target space is a flag manifold of simple G, and the gauge group is a Cartan subgroup thereof, the perturbative model describes, pu…
This article addresses the question of whether Langlands duality for complex reductive Lie groups may be implemented by T-dualization. We prove that for reductive groups whose simple factors are of Dynkin type A, D, or E, the answer is yes.
We establish a Kobayashi-Hitchin correspondence between solutions of the extended Bogomolny equation with a Dirac type singularity and Hecke modifications of Higgs bundles. This correspondence was conjectured by Witten and plays an important role in the physical description of the the geometric Langlands program in ter…
S-dual of Hamiltonian spaces connects to Langlands duality.
The paper explores gauge theory invariants and their duals via topological-holomorphic twist.
Given a compact Riemann surface and a complex reductive Lie group equipped with real structures, we define antiholomorphic involutions on the moduli space of -Higgs bundles over . We investigate how the various components of the fixed point locus match up, as one passes from to its Langlands dual $^LG…
Shelstad's character identity is an equality between sums of characters of tempered representations in corresponding -packets of two real, semisimple, linear, algebraic groups that are inner forms to each other. We reconstruct this character identity in the case of the discrete series, using index theory of elliptic…
Study skein modules via gauge theory, finding non-TQFT dimensions.
The purpose of this note is to present a short elementary proof of a theorem due to Faltings and Laumon, saying that the global nilpotent cone is a Lagrangian substack in the cotangent bundle of the moduli space of G-bundles on a complex compact curve. This result plays a crucial role in the Geometric Langlands program…
5D gauge theories are dual to 3D and 2D models via Floer homologies.
Study q-series for 3-manifolds with line defects, proving homomorphism and conjecturing holomorphic modularity.
Defines and parametrizes -type singular fibres in symplectic and odd orthogonal Hitchin systems.
The paper studies cohomological Donaldson-Thomas theory for local systems on a 3-torus.
One can realize higher laminations as positive configurations of points in the affine building. The duality pairings of Fock and Goncharov give pairings between higher laminations for two Langlands dual groups and . These pairings are a generalization of the intersection pairing between measured laminatio…
New quantum integrals discovered for a spin chain model.
This paper constructs cohomological Hall algebras for 3-Calabi-Yau categories.
The paper integrates Rota-Baxter Lie algebras into Lie group structures and geometries.
We study twisted N=2 superconformal gauge theory on a product of two Riemann surfaces Sigma and C. The twisted theory is topological along C and holomorphic along Sigma and does not depend on the gauge coupling or theta-angle. Upon Kaluza-Klein reduction along Sigma, it becomes equivalent to a topological B-model on C …

The paper explores de Rham theory for singular spaces and stacks.
The BPS decomposition theorem splits cohomology of symmetric stacks into invariant parts.
We consider topological T-duality of torus bundles equipped with S^{1}-gerbes. We show how a geometry on the gerbe determines a reduction of its band to the subsheaf of S^{1}-valued functions which are constant along the torus fibres. We observe that such a reduction is exactly the additional datum needed for the const…
We show that the resolvent of the Laplacian on SL(3,)/SO(3) can be lifted to a meromorphic function on a Riemann surface which is a branched covering of . The poles of this function are called the resonances of the Laplacian. We determine all resonances and show that the corresponding residue op…
Anosov subgroup equidistributes geodesics and holonomies on homogeneous spaces.
Given a complex projective algebraic variety, write H(X) for its cohomology with complex coefficients and IH(X) for its Intersection cohomology. We first show that, under some fairly general conditions, the canonical map H(X)\to IH(X) is injective. Now let Gr = G((z))/G[[z]] be the loop Grassmannian for a complex semis…
In math.SG/0605587, we studied Yang-Mills functional on the space of connections on a principal G_R-bundle over a closed, connected, nonorientable surface, where G_R is any compact connected Lie group. In this sequel, we generalize the discussion in "The Yang-Mills equations over Riemann surfaces" by Atiyah and Bott, a…
We investigate a question of Cooper adjacent to the Virtual Haken Conjecture. Assuming certain conjectures in number theory, we show that there exist hyperbolic rational homology 3-spheres with arbitrarily large injectivity radius. These examples come from a tower of abelian covers of an explicit arithmetic 3-manifold.…
