Constructs harmonic 1-forms on K3-fibred Calabi-Yau 3-folds.

We study the differential-geometric properties of the loci of fixed points of the elliptic isometries of the manifold of definite positive real matrices with the trace metric. We also give an explicit description of such loci and in particular we find their De Rham decomposition.

We introduce the natural and fairly general notion of a subanalytic bundle (with a finite dimensional vector space $P$ of sections) on a subanalytic subset $X$ of a real analytic manifold $M$, and prove that when $M$ is compact, there is a Baire subset $U$ of sections in $P$ whose zero-loci in $X$ have tubular neighbou…

Study on real loci of moduli spaces of vector and Higgs bundles over Klein surfaces.

Study real semi-stable degenerations and describe real loci via blow-ups.

This paper is devoted to the classification of connected components of Prym eigenform loci in the strata H(2,2)^odd and H(1,1,2) in the Abelian differentials bundle in genus 3. These loci, discovered by McMullen are GL^+(2,R)-invariant submanifolds (of complex dimension 3) that project to the locus of Riemann surfaces …

We describe and study the loci equidistant from finitely many points in the so-called complex hyperbolic geometry, i.e., in the geometry of a holomorphic $2$-ball $\Bbb B$. In particular, we show that the bisectors (= the loci equidistant from $2$ points) containing the (smooth real algebraic) curve equidistant from gi…

The study of real Einstein submanifolds in Kähler geometry.

Researchers create explicit representations for skein algebras of small surfaces, revealing their Azumaya loci.

We construct triples of commuting real structures on the moduli space of Higgs bundles, whose fixed loci are branes of type (B, A, A), (A, B, A) and (A, A, B). We study the real points through the associated spectral data and describe the topological invariants involved using KO, KR and equivariant K-theory.

In this note, we describe a procedure to construct generalized complex structures with an arbitrarily large number of type change loci on products of the circle with a connected sum of closed 3-manifolds. The loci need not be isotopic.

Classifies surfaces with great and small circles through each point.

Study geodesics and shortest arcs on Lie groups with specific metrics.

In this paper, we study Fuchsian loci of ${\rm PSL}_n(\mathbb{R})$-Hitchin components. In particular, using the Bonahon-Dreyer parametrization of ${\rm PSL}_n(\mathbb{R})$-Hitchin components, we give an explicit parametrization of Fuchsian loci of a pair of pants.

For an $n$-dimensional real hyperbolic manifold $M$, we calculate the Zariski tangent space of a character variety $χ(π_1(M),SL(n+1,\mathbb R)), n>2$ at Fuchisan loci to show that the tangent space consists of cubic forms. Furthermore we prove the Weil's local rigidity theorem for uniforml hyperbolic lattices using rea…

We introduce a new invariant, the real (logarithmic)-Kodaira dimension, that allows to distinguish smooth real algebraic surfaces up to birational diffeomorphism. As an application, we construct infinite families of smooth rational real algebraic surfaces with trivial homology groups, whose real loci are diffeomorphic …

We survey the cohomology jumping loci and the Alexander-type invariants associated to a space, or to its fundamental group. Though most of the material is expository, we provide new examples and applications, which in turn raise several questions and conjectures. The jump loci of a space X come in two basic flavors: th…

As an increasing number of genome-wide association studies reveal the limitations of attempting to explain phenotypic heritability by single genetic loci, there is growing interest for associating complex phenotypes with sets of genetic loci. While several methods for multi-locus mapping have been proposed, it is often…

New potentials found for sheaves on Calabi-Yau 4-folds.

Let $X\subset \mathbb P^N$ be a scroll over a smooth curve $C$ and let $Ł=\mathcal O_{\mathbb P^N}(1)|_X$ denote the hyperplane bundle. The special geometry of $X$ implies that some sheaves related to the principal part bundles of $Ł$ are locally free. The inflectional loci of $X$ can be expressed in terms of these she…

Study of a $G_2$-equivariant octonionic operator and its right spectrum.

We show that some riemannian manifolds diffeomorphic to the sphere have the property that the cut loci of general points are smoothly embedded closed disks of codimension one. Ellipsoids with distinct axes are typical examples of such manifolds.

Study on algebraic fiber spaces and their anti-canonical divisors.

Study of Randers metrics on spheres with simple cut loci.

We investigate specific examples of locally-defined real vector-fields on strata of translation surfaces. Integrating SL(2,R)-loci of Veech surfaces along these vector-fields yield interesting new examples of horocyle-invariant ergodic measures. These measures are supported on closed immersed manifolds with boundary th…

We prove a Lefschetz hyperplane theorem for the determinantal loci of a morphism between two holomorphic vector bundles $E$ and $F$ over a complex manifold under the condition that $E^*\ox F$ is Griffiths $k$-positive. We apply this result to find some homotopy groups of the Brill-Noether loci for a generic curve.

We study hamiltonian actions of compact groups in the presence of compatible involutions. We show that the lagrangian fixed point set on the symplectically reduced space is isomorphic to the disjoint union of the involutively reduced spaces corresponding to involutions on the group strongly inner to the given one. Our …

Study of longest arcs and cut loci in deformed anti de-Sitter spaces.

The paper studies the locus in the rank 2 Higgs bundle moduli space corresponding to points which are critical for d of the Poisson commuting functions. These correspond to the Higgs field vanishing on a divisor of degree D. The degree D critical locus has an induced integrable system related to K(-D)-twisted Higgs bun…

The study examines singularities and geometric properties of surfaces derived from frontals with specific singular points.

Let M be a Hamiltonian T space with a proper moment map, bounded below in some component. In this setting, we give a combinatorial description of the T-equivariant cohomology of M, extending results of Goresky, Kottwitz and MacPherson and techniques of Tolman and Weitsman. Moreover, when M is equipped with an antisympl…

In this paper, we study the interplay between modules and sub-objects in holomorphic Poisson geometry. In particular, we define a new notion of "residue" for a Poisson module, analogous to the Poincaré residue of a meromorphic volume form. Of particular interest is the interaction between the residues of the canonical …

We give a new and detailed description of the structure of cut loci, with direct applications to the singular sets of some Hamilton-Jacobi equations. These sets may be non-triangulable, but a local description at all points except for a set of Hausdorff dimension $n-2$ is well known. We go further in this direction by …

In this paper we study the invariant Carnot-Caratheodory metrics on $SU(2)\simeq S^3$, $SO(3)$ and $SL(2)$ induced by their Cartan decomposition and by the Killing form. Beside computing explicitly geodesics and conjugate loci, we compute the cut loci (globally) and we give the expression of the Carnot-Caratheodory dis…
