A comment on metric vs metric-affine gravity
Physics Letters B, 2023 We consider the sum of the Einstein-Hilbert action and a Pontryagin density (PD) in arbitrary even dimension D≥4. All curvatures are functions of independent affine (torsionless) connections only.

Berry Phases, Quantum Phase Transitions and Chern Numbers
, 2007 We study the relation between Chern numbers and Quantum Phase Transitions (QPT) in the XY spin-chain model. By coupling the spin chain to a single spin, it is possible to study topological invariants associated to the coupling Hamiltonian.

Investigation of Social Media Metrics With Respect to Demand Modeling for Promotional Products
Journal of Forecasting, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Social media (SM) has revolutionized the way companies connect with customers, enabling more personalized marketing strategies and enhancing engagement. With platforms like Facebook offering detailed user data, businesses can create more targeted advertising campaigns. This paper proposes an approach to categorizing SM variables based on their

Symmetric Space Cartan Connections and Gravity in Three and Four Dimensions
Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 2009 Einstein gravity in both 3 and 4 dimensions, as well as some interesting generalizations, can be written as gauge theories in which the connection is a Cartan connection for geometry modeled on a symmetric space.

Gerbes, simplicial forms and invariants for families of foliated bundles
, 2004 The notion of a gerbe with connection is conveniently reformulated in terms of the simplicial deRham complex. In particular the usual Chern-Weil and Chern-Simons theory is well adapted to this framework and rather easily gives rise to `characteristic ...

Vector bundles on bielliptic surfaces: Ulrich bundles and degree of irrationality
Mathematische Nachrichten, EarlyView.Abstract This paper deals with two problems about vector bundles on bielliptic surfaces. The first is to give a classification of Ulrich bundles on such surfaces S$S$, which depends on the topological type of S$S$. In doing so, we study the weak Brill–Noether property for moduli spaces of sheaves with isotropic Mukai vector. Adapting an idea of Moretti

U(N) Framed Links, Three-Manifold Invariants, and Topological Strings
, 2003 Three-manifolds can be obtained through surgery of framed links in $S^3$. We study the meaning of surgery procedures in the context of topological strings.

The DNA of Calabi–Yau Hypersurfaces
Fortschritte der Physik, EarlyView.Abstract Genetic Algorithms are implemented for triangulations of four‐dimensional reflexive polytopes, which induce Calabi–Yau threefold hypersurfaces via Batyrev's construction. These algorithms are shown to efficiently optimize physical observables such as axion decay constants or axion–photon couplings in string theory compactifications.

Higher dimensional quantum Hall effect as A-class topological insulator
Nuclear Physics B, 2014 We perform a detail study of higher dimensional quantum Hall effects and A-class topological insulators with emphasis on their relations to non-commutative geometry.

Wilson loop algebras and quantum K-theory for Grassmannians
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 We study the algebra of Wilson line operators in three-dimensional N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 2 supersymmetric U(M ) gauge theories with a Higgs phase related to a complex Grassmannian Gr(M, N ), and its connection to K-theoretic Gromov-Witten invariants for ...
