We identify the difference between the CM polarisation and the Chow polarisation on the ``Hilbert scheme''. As a consequence, we give a numerical criterion for the CM stability as in Mumfords' G.I.T.. Also, we write down an explicit formula for the generalised futaki invariant interms of weights and multiplicities of t…

We classify nilmanifolds with an invariant symplectic half-flat structure. We solve the half-flat evolution equations in one example, writing down the resulting Ricci-flat metric. We study the geometry of the orbit space of 6-manifolds with an SU(3)-structure preserved by a U(1) action, giving characterizations in the …

We present conformal structures in signature (3,2) for which the holonomy of the Fefferman-Graham ambient metric is equal to the non-compact exceptional Lie group G_{2(2)}.

Penrose transform tells us that there is an isomorphism of the kernel of an invariant differential operator studied in the paper [TS] and sheaf cohomology of some vector bundle on twistor space. The point of this paper is to write down this isomorphism explicitly. Explicit form of the isomorphism will be crucial for fu…

Sphere eversions have been described so far by either pictures with minimal topological complexity, numerical evolution or complex equations.

The aim of this paper is to provide a proof for a version of Morse inequality for manifolds with boundary. Our main results are certainly known to the experts on Morse theory, nevertheless it seems necessary to write down a complete proof for it. Our proof is analytic and is based on J. Roe's account of Witten's approa…

The Kähler cone of a compact manifold carries a natural Riemannian metric, given by the intersection product of its cohomology ring. We write down the curvature tensor of this metric by embedding the Kähler cone in the space of hermitian metrics on the underlying manifold. After discussing weak functorality and complet…

In this paper we show that to each planar line arrangement defined over the real numbers, for which no two lines are parallel, one can write down a corresponding relation on Dehn twists that can be read off from the combinatorics and relative locations of intersections. This leads to an alternate proof of Wajnryb's gen…

We analyze the moduli space of non-flat homogeneous affine connections on surfaces. For Type A\mathcal{A} surfaces, we write down complete sets of invariants that determine the local isomorphism type depending on the rank of the Ricci tensor and examine the structure of the associated moduli space.

BiHermitian geometry, discovered long ago by Gates, Hull and Roceck, is the most general sigma model target space geometry allowing for (2,2) world sheet supersymmetry. By using the twisting procedure proposed by Kapustin and Li, we work out the type A and B topological sigma models for a general biHermtian target spac…

The theory of ambient spaces is useful to define CR invariant objects, such as CR invariant powers of the sub-Laplacian, the PP-prime operators, and QQ-prime curvature. However in general, it is difficult to write down these objects in terms of the Tanaka-Webster connection. In this paper, we give those explicit form…

In this paper, we write down Seiberg-Witten equations on contact metric manifolds of dimension 5. Any contact metric manifold has a spin^c structure. For Dirac equation we use Dirac type operators associated to the generalized Tanaka-Webster connection on spin^c spinor bundle of a contact metric manifold. For curvature…

A path integral on a link complement of a three-sphere fixes a vector (the "link state") in Chern-Simons theory. The link state can be written in a certain basis with the colored link invariants as its coefficients. We use symmetric webs to systematically compute the colored link invariants, by which we can write down …

Uhlenbeck proved that a set of simple elements generates the group of rational loops in GL(n,C) that satisfy the U(n)-reality condition. For an arbitrary complex reductive group, a choice of representation defines a notion of rationality and enables us to write down a natural set of simple elements. Using these simple …
