Higher genera Catalan numbers and Hirota equations for extended nonlinear Schrödinger hierarchy

2021

We consider the Dubrovin--Frobenius manifold of rank $2$ whose genus expansion at a special point controls the enumeration of a higher genera generalization of the Catalan numbers, or, equivalently, the enumeration of maps on surfaces, ribbon graphs, Grothendieck's dessins d'enfants, strictly monotone Hurwitz numbers, or lattice points in the moduli spaces of curves. Liu, Zhang, and Zhou conjectured that the full partition function of this Dubrovin--Frobenius manifold is a tau-function of the extended nonlinear Schr\"odinger hierarchy, an extension of a particular rational reduction of the Kadomtsev--Petviashvili hierarchy. We prove a version of their conjecture specializing the Givental--M…

Universal formulas for characteristic classes on the Hilbert schemes of points on surfaces

2007

This article can be seen as a sequel to the first author's article ``Chern classes of the tangent bundle on the Hilbert scheme of points on the affine plane'', where he calculates the total Chern class of the Hilbert schemes of points on the affine plane by proving a result on the existence of certain universal formulas expressing characteristic classes on the Hilbert schemes in term of Nakajima's creation operators. The purpose of this work is (at least) two-fold. First of all, we clarify the notion of ``universality'' of certain formulas about the cohomology of the Hilbert schemes by defining a universal algebra of creation operators. This helps us to reformulate and extend a lot of the f…

Rolle's Theorem for Polynomials of Degree Four in a Hilbert Space

2002

AbstractIn an infinite-dimensional real Hilbert space, we introduce a class of fourth-degree polynomials which do not satisfy Rolle's Theorem in the unit ball. Extending what happens in the finite-dimensional case, we show that every fourth-degree polynomial defined by a compact operator satisfies Rolle's Theorem.

The cohomology of a variation of polarized Hodge structures over a quasi-compact Kähler manifold

2007

In this article, we consider the cohomologies with coefficients in a variation of polarized Hodge structures on a quasi-compact Kaehler manifold. We show that the L 2 L^2 -Dolbeault cohomology can be identified with the L 2 L^2 cohomology; we also give several direct applications of the result above.

On Hodge theory for the generalized geometry (I)

2013

Abstract We first investigate the linear Dirac structure from the viewpoint of a mixed Hodge structure. Then we discuss a Hodge-decomposition-type theorem for the generalized Kahler manifold and study the moduli space of a generalized weak Calabi–Yau manifold. We present a holomorphic anomaly equation and a one-loop partition function in a topological B-model under the generalized geometric context.

Total curvatures of convex hypersurfaces in hyperbolic space

1999

We give sharp upper estimates for the difference circumradius minus inradius and for the angle between the radial vector (respect to the center of an inball) and the normal to the boundary of a compact $h$-convex domain in the hyperpolic space. We apply these estimates to get the limit at the infinity for the quotients Volume/Area and (Total $k$-mean curvature)/Area of a family of $h$-convex domains which expand over the whole space. The theorem for the first quotient gives an extension to arbitrary dimension of a result of Santalo and Yanez for the hyperbolic plane.

THE HOROSPHERICAL GEOMETRY OF SUBMANIFOLDS IN HYPERBOLIC SPACE

2005

Some geometrical properties associated to the contact of submanifolds with hyperhorospheres in hyperbolic -space are studied as an application of the theory of Legendrian singularities.

Non-equivalent hyperbolic knots

2002

We construct, for each integer n 3, pairs of non-equivalent hyperbolic knots with the same 2fold and n-fold cyclic branched covers. We also discuss necessary conditions for such pairs of knots to exist.  2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. MSC: primary 57M25; secondary 57M12, 57M50
