The holographic c-theorem and infinite-dimensional Lie algebras
We discuss a non-dynamical theory of gravity in three dimensions which is based on an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra that is closely related to an infinite-dimensional extended AdS algebra.

Pinwheels in symplectic rational and ruled surfaces and non‐squeezing of rational homology balls
Abstract We use almost toric fibrations and the symplectic rational blow‐up to determine when certain Lagrangian pinwheels, which we call liminal, embed in symplectic rational and ruled surfaces. The case of L2,1$L_{2,1}$‐pinwheels, namely Lagrangian RP2s$\mathbb {R}P^2{\rm s}$, answers a question of Kronheimer in the negative, exhibiting a symplectic ...

(n-2)-tightness and curvature of submanifolds with boundary
The purpose of this note is to establish a connection between the notion of (n−2)-tightness in the sense of N.H. Kuiper and T.F. Banchoff and the total absolute curvature of compact submanifolds-with-boundary of even dimension in Euclidean space.

Integrable lambda models and Chern-Simons theories
In this note we reveal a connection between the phase space of lambda models on S 1 × ℝ $$ {S}^1\times \mathbb{R} $$ and the phase space of double Chern-Simons theories on D × ℝ $$ D\times \mathbb{R} $$ and explain in the process the origin of the non ...

On the Non Metrizability of Berwald Finsler Spacetimes
We investigate whether Szabo’s metrizability theorem can be extended to Finsler spaces of indefinite signature. For smooth, positive definite Finsler metrics, this important theorem states that, if the metric is of Berwald type (i.e., its Chern–Rund ...

Simple homotopy theory for Fukaya categories
Abstract We develop a categorical framework for simple homotopy theory in Fukaya categories, based on the fundamental group of the ambient symplectic manifold. When the first Chern class vanishes, we show that any isomorphism in the Fukaya category of a Weinstein manifold has trivial Whitehead torsion.

Chern-Dold character in complex cobordisms and theta divisors
We show that the smooth theta divisors of general principally polarised abelian varieties can be chosen as irreducible algebraic representatives of the coefficients of the Chern-Dold character in complex cobordisms and describe the action of the ...

Controlling Collective Quasiparticle Dynamics Beyond Decoherence in Topological Interfaces
Gold nanoparticles placed above a deformed honeycomb plasmonic crystal couple to a chiral topological interface mode. The pseudospin‐split bands ψ+/ ψ− encode spin‐momentum locking, so emitters radiate directionally along the domain wall and share a common phase.

Results Related to the Chern–Yamabe Flow
Let (X,ω0) be a compact complex manifold of complex dimension n endowed with a Hermitian metric ω0. The Chern–Yamabe problem is to find a conformal metric of ω0 such that its Chern scalar curvature is constant.

Effective theories for 2+1 dimensional non-Abelian topological spin liquids
In this work we propose an effective low-energy theory for a large class of 2+1 dimensional non-Abelian topological spin liquids whose edge states are conformal degrees of freedom with central charges corresponding to the coset structure su(2) k ⊕ su(2 ...
