The Hitchin-Witten Connection and Complex Quantum Chern-Simons Theory
We give a direct calculation of the curvature of the Hitchin connection, in geometric quantization on a symplectic manifold, using only differential geometric techniques. In particular, we establish that the curvature acts as a first-order operator on the quantum spaces.

We investigate Monge-Amp\`ere type equations on almost Hermitian manifolds and show an \textit{a priori} $L^\infty$ estimate for a smooth solution of these equations.

An inner product for 4D quantum gravity and the Chern–Simons–Kodama state [PDF]
We demonstrate that reality conditions for the Ashtekar connection imply a non-trivial measure for the inner product of gravitational states in the polarization where the Ashtekar connection is diagonal, and we express the measure as the determinant of a

Chiral gravitational waves in Palatini-Chern-Simons gravity [PDF]
We study the parity-breaking higher-curvature gravity theory of Chern-Simons (CS), using the Palatini formulation in which the metric and connection are taken to be independent fields.

General solutions in Chern-Simons gravity and T T ¯ $$ T\overline{T} $$ -deformations
We find the most general solution to Chern-Simons AdS3 gravity in Fefferman-Graham gauge. The connections are equivalent to geometries that have a non-trivial curved boundary, characterized by a 2-dimensional vielbein and a spin connection.

Corrigendum to "Chern connection of a pseudo-Finsler metric as a family of affine connections" [PDF]
In this note, we give the correct statements of [2,Proposition 3.3 and Theorem 3.4] and a formula of the Chern curvature in terms of the curvature tensor $R^V$ of the affine connection $\nabla^V$ and the Chern tensor $P$.

An a priori C0-estimate for the Fu-Yau equation on compact almost astheno-Kähler manifolds
We investigate the Fu-Yau equation on compact almost astheno-Kähler manifolds and show an a priori C0-estiamte for a smooth solution of the equation.
