Pro-Lie Groups: A survey with Open Problems
, 2015 A topological group is called a pro-Lie group if it is isomorphic to a closed subgroup of a product of finite-dimensional real Lie groups. This class of groups is closed under the formation of arbitrary products and closed subgroups and forms a complete ...

T-duality through BV Morphisms and BV Pushforwards in Topological Field Theories [PDF]
, 2013 We introduce the concept of duality between quantum field theories in the Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism, which is interpreted either as a BV morphism, the result of dual BV pushforwards or a combination of both.

Pre-NQ Manifolds and Correspondence Spaces: the Nilmanifold Example
, 2019 Courant algebroids correspond to degree-2 symplectic differential graded manifolds or NQ-manifolds for short. We review how a similar construction shows that locally the gauge structure of Double Field Theory corresponds to degree-2 symplectic pre-NQ ...

Electric-Magnetic Duality of Topological Gauge Theories from Compactification [PDF]
, 2013 In this note, we discuss electric-magnetic duality between a pair of 4d topological field theories (TQFTs) by considering their compactifications to 2 dimensions.

Operads and moduli spaces of genus $0$ Riemann surfaces
, 1994 We study a pair of dual operads which arise in the study of moduli spaces of pointed genus 0 curves (this duality is similar to that between commutative and Lie algebras).

Open-closed field theories, string topology, and Hochschild homology
, 2009 In this expository paper we discuss a project regarding the string topology of a manifold, that was inspired by recent work of Moore-Segal, Costello, and Hopkins and Lurie, on "open-closed topological conformal field theories".

Surface operators in four-dimensional topological gauge theory and Langlands duality [PDF]
, 2010 We study surface and line operators in the GL-twisted N=4 gauge theory in four dimensions. Their properties depend on the parameter t which determines the BRST operator of theory.

On the normally ordered tensor product and duality for Tate objects
, 2017 This paper generalizes the normally ordered tensor product from Tate vector spaces to Tate objects over arbitrary exact categories. We show how to lift bi-right exact monoidal structures, duality functors, and construct external Homs.

Parabolic Whittaker Functions and Topological Field Theories I
, 2010 First, we define a generalization of the standard quantum Toda chain inspired by a construction of quantum cohomology of partial flags spaces GL(\ell+1)/P, P a parabolic subgroup. Common eigenfunctions of the parabolic quantum Toda chains are generalized

Sheaves and Duality in the Two-Vertex Graph Riemann-Roch Theorem
, 2017 For each graph on two vertices, and each divisor on the graph in the sense of Baker-Norine, we describe a sheaf of vector spaces on a finite category whose zeroth Betti number is the Baker-Norine "Graph Riemann-Roch" rank of the divisor plus one.
