Topological gravity localization on a delta-function like Brane
Besides the String Theory context, the quantum General Relativity can be studied by the use of constrained topological field theories. In the celebrated Plebanski formalism, the constraints connecting topological field theories and gravity are imposed in

Black Hole Entropy and the Dimensional Continuation of the Gauss-Bonnet Theorem
The Euclidean black hole has topology $\Re^2 \times {\cal S}^{d-2}$. It is shown that -in Einstein's theory- the deficit angle of a cusp at any point in $\Re^2$ and the area of the ${\cal S}^{d-2}$ are canonical conjugates. The black hole entropy emerges

The ghost length and duality on the chain and cochain type levels [PDF]
We establish equalities between cochain and chain type levels of maps by making use of exact functors which connect appropriate derived and coderived categories.

Hodge-type integrals on moduli spaces of admissible covers
We study Hodge Integrals on Moduli Spaces of Admissible Covers. Motivation for this work comes from Bryan and Pandharipande's recent work on the local GW theory of curves, where analogouos intersection numbers, computed on Moduli Spaces of Relative ...

Gauge Group and Topology Change
The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of topology change in the initial universe. In this study, the concept of $G$-cobordism is introduced to argue about the topology change of the manifold on which a transformation group acts.

In 1983, Donaldson shocked the topology world by using instantons from physics to prove new theorems about four-dimensional manifolds, and he developed new topological invariants.

Operator mixing in N = 4 SYM: The Konishi anomaly re-re-visited
The supersymmetry transformation relating the Konishi operator to its lowest descendant in the 10 of SU(4) is not manifest in the N=1 formulation of the theory but rather uses an equation of motion.

A remark on the invariance of dimension [PDF]
Combining Kulpa's proof of the cubical Sperner lemma and a dimension theoretic idea of van Mill we give a very short proof of the invariance of dimension, i.e. the statement that cubes [0,1]^n, [0,1]^m are homeomorphic if and only if n=m.
