Gerstenhaber algebras and BV-algebras in Poisson geometry

The purpose of this paper is to establish an explicit correspondence between various geometric structures on a vector bundle with some well-known algebraic structures such as Gerstenhaber algebras and BV-algebras. Some applications are discussed. In particular, we found an explicit connection between the Koszul-Brylinski operator of a Poisson manifold and its modular class. As a consequence, we prove that Poisson homology is isomorphic to Poisson cohomology for unimodular Poisson structures.

Exterior differential systems: a geometric approach to PDE. Lecture notes from the 1997 Daewoo workshop

This is an elementary introduction to exterior differential systems motivated by two examples: minimal submanifolds and the isometric embedding problem. The two main goals of the lectures are: 1. To explain how to find an appropriate geometric setting for studying a given system of pde. 2. To explain the Cartan algorithm to determine the moduli space of local solutions to any given exterior differential system and an appropriate initial value problem for the system.

Deformations of representations of fundamental groups of open Kaehler manifolds

Given a compact Kaehler manifold, we consider the complement U of a divisor with normal crossings. We study the variety of unitary representations of the fundamental group of U with certain restrictions related to the divisor. We show that the possible singularities of this variety as well as of the corresponding moduli space of irreducible representations are quadratic. In the course of our proof we exhibit a differential graded Lie algebra of which reflects our deformation problem.

Uhlenbeck compactness and transversality for the moduli space of PU(2) monopoles

This research announcement gives a brief report of the main results in our paper "PU(2) monopoles, I: Regularity, Uhlenbeck compactness, and transversality" (Journal of Differential Geometry, to appear). We describe the existence of perturbations for the PU(2) monopole equations, yielding both useful transversality properties and an Uhlenbeck compactification for this perturbed moduli space.

PU(2) Monopoles, I: Regularity, Uhlenbeck Compactness, and Transversality

We prove the existence of perturbations for the PU(2) monopole equations, yielding transversality on the complement of the anti-self-dual or reducible solutions, and the existence of an Uhlenbeck compactification for the moduli space of solutions to these perturbed PU(2) monopole equations. In December 1994, V. Pidstrigach and A. Tyurin and then others proposed a method to prove Witten's conjecture concerning the relation between the Donaldson and Seiberg-Witten invariants of smooth four-manifolds. Their proposal uses a moduli space of solutions to the PU(2) monopole equations, which are a natural generalization of the U(1) monopole equations of Seiberg and Witten and the equation for anti-self-dual SO(3) connections, to construct a cobordism between links of compact moduli spaces of U(1) monopoles of Seiberg-Witten type and the moduli space of anti-self-dual connections, which appear as singularities in this larger moduli space. A basic requirement of this cobordism technique is the existence of an Uhlenbeck compactification for the moduli space of PU(2) monopoles and of generic-parameter transversality results for all the moduli spaces of PU(2) monopoles which appear in this compactification, on the complement of the anti-self-dual and U(1) solutions.

Projectivity of moment map quotients

Let G be a complex reductive group and K a maximal compact subgroup. If X is a smooth projective G-variety, with a fixed (not necessarily integral) K-invariant Kaehler form, then the K-action is Hamiltonian. Let M be the zero fiber of the corresponding moment map. It is well known that the quotient M/K is a complex space in a natural way. We prove that M/K is a projective variety. In particular, it follows that semistability with respect to a moment map is equivalent to semistability in the sense of Mumford.

Infinite-Dimensional Geometry of the Universal Deformation of the Complex Disk

The universal deformation of the complex disk is studied from the viewpoint of infinite-dimensional geometry. The structure of a subsymmetric space on the universal deformation is described. The foliation of the universal deformation by subsymmetry mirrors is shown to determine a real polarization. The subject of the paper maybe of interest to specialists in algebraic geometry and representation theory as well as to researchers dealing with mathematical problems of modern quantum field theory. Contents. I. The infinite-dimensional geometry of the flag manifold of the Virasoro-Bott group (the base of the universal deformation of the complex disk). II. The infinite-dimensional geometry of the skeleton of the flag manifold of the Virasoro-Bott group. III. The infinite-dimensional geometry of the universal deformation of the complex disk.

Supermatrix Representations of Semigroup Bands

Various semigroups of noninvertible supermatrices of the special (antitriangle) shape having nilpotent Berezinian which appear in supersymmetric theories are defined and investigated. A subset of them continuously represents left and right zero semigroups and rectangular bands. The ideal properties of higher order rectangular band analogs and the ``wreath'' version of them are studied in detail. We introduce the ``fine'' equivalence relations leading to ``multidimesional'' eggbox diagrams. They are full images of Green's relations on corresponding subsemigroups.

Representation Theory of Analytic Holonomy C* Algebras

Integral calculus on the space of gauge equivalent connections is developed. Loops, knots, links and graphs feature prominently in this description. The framework is well--suited for quantization of diffeomorphism invariant theories of connections. The general setting is provided by the abelian C* algebra of functions on the quotient space of connections generated by Wilson loops (i.e., by the traces of holonomies of connections around closed loops). The representation theory of this algebra leads to an interesting and powerful ``duality'' between gauge--equivalence classes of connections and certain equivalence classes of closed loops. In particular, regular measures on (a suitable completion of) connections/gauges are in 1--1 correspondence with certain functions of loops and diffeomorphism invariant measures correspond to (generalized) knot and link invariants. By carrying out a non--linear extension of the theory of cylindrical measures on topological vector spaces, a faithful, diffeomorphism invariant measure is introduced. This measure can be used to define the Hilbert space of quantum states in theories of connections. The Wilson--loop functionals then serve as the configuration operators in the quantum theory.

Lie-algebraic approach to the theory of polynomial solutions. I. Ordinary differential equations and finite-difference equations in one variable

A classification of ordinary differential equations and finite-difference equations in one variable having polynomial solutions (the generalized Bochner problem) is given. The method used is based on the spectral problem for a polynomial element of the universal enveloping algebra of $sl_2({\bf R})$ (for differential equations) or $sl_2({\bf R})_q$ (for finite-difference equations) in the "projectivized" representation possessing an invariant subspace. Connection to the recently-discovered quasi-exactly-solvable problems is discussed.

Lie-algebraic approach to the theory of polynomial solutions. II. Differential equations in one real and one Grassmann variables and 2x2 matrix differential equations

A classification theorem for linear differential equations in two variables (one real and one Grassmann) having polynomial solutions(the generalized Bochner problem) is given. The main result is based on the consideration of the eigenvalue problem for a polynomial element of the universal enveloping algebra of the algebra $osp(2,2)$ in the "projectivized" representation (in differential operators of the first order) possessing an invariant subspace. A classification of 2 x 2 matrix differential equations in one real variable possessing polynomial solutions is described. Connection to the recently-discovered quasi-exactly-solvable problems is discussed.

Lie-algebraic approach to the theory of polynomial solutions. III. Differential equations in two real variables and general outlook

Classification theorems for linear differential equations in two real variables, possessing eigenfunctions in the form of the polynomials (the generalized Bochner problem) are given. The main result is based on the consideration of the eigenvalue problem for a polynomial elements of the universal enveloping algebras of the algebras $sl_3({\bf R})$, $sl_2({\bf R})\oplus sl_2({\bf R})$ and $gl_2 ({\bf R})\ \triangleright\!\!\!< {\bf R}^{r+1}\ , r>0$ taken in the "projectivized" representations (in differential operators of the first order in two real variables) possessing an invariant subspace. General insight to the problem of a description of linear differential operators possessing an invariant sub-space with a basis in polynomials is presented. Connection to the recently-discovered quasi-exactly-solvable problems is discussed.

Surgical invariants of four-manifolds

A new topological invariant of closed connected orientable four-dimensional manifolds is proposed. The invariant, constructed via surgery on a special link, is a four-dimensional counterpart of the celebrated SU(2) three-manifold invariant of Reshetikhin, Turaev and Witten.

On Solvable Lattice Models and Knot Invariants

Recently, a class of solvable interaction round the face lattice models (IRF) were constructed for an arbitrary rational conformal field theory (RCFT) and an arbitrary field in it. The Boltzmann weights of the lattice models are related in the extreme ultra violet limit to the braiding matrices of the rational conformal field theory. In this note we use these new lattice models to construct a link invariant for any such pair of an RCFT and a field in it. Using the properties of RCFT and the IRF lattice models, we prove that the invariants so constructed always obey the Markov properties, and thus are true link invariants. Further, all the known link invariants, such as the Jones, HOMFLY and Kauffman polynomials arise in this way, along with giving a host of new invariants, and thus also a unified approach to link polynomials. It is speculated that all link invariants arise from some RCFT, and thus the problem of classifying link and knot invariants is equivalent to that of classifying two dimensional conformal field theory.

Graph IRF Models and Fusion Rings

Recently, a class of interaction round the face (IRF) solvable lattice models were introduced, based on any rational conformal field theory (RCFT). We investigate here the connection between the general solvable IRF models and the fusion ones. To this end, we introduce an associative algebra associated to any graph, as the algebra of products of the eigenvalues of the incidence matrix. If a model is based on an RCFT, its associated graph algebra is the fusion ring of the RCFT. A number of examples are studied. The Gordon--generalized IRF models are studied, and are shown to come from RCFT, by the graph algebra construction. The IRF models based on the Dynkin diagrams of A-D-E are studied. While the $A$ case stems from an RCFT, it is shown that the $D-E$ cases do not. The graph algebras are constructed, and it is speculated that a natural isomorphism relating these to RCFT exists. The question whether all solvable IRF models stems from an RCFT remains open, though the $D-E$ cases shows that a mixing of the primary fields is needed.

Differential Operator Algebras on compact Riemann Surfaces

Invited talk at the International Symposium on Generalized Symmetries in Physics at the Arnold-Sommerfeld-Institute, Clausthal, Germany, July 26 -- July 29, 1993. This talk reviews results on the structure of algebras consisting of meromorphic differential operators which are holomorphic outside a finite set of points on compact Riemann surfaces. For each partition into two disjoint subsets of the set of points where poles are allowed, a grading of the algebra and of the modules of lambda - forms is introduced. With respect to this grading the Lie structure of the algebra and of the modules are almost graded ones. Central extensions and semi-infinite wedge representations are studied. If one considers only differential operators of degree 1 then these algebras are generalizations of the Virasoro algebra in genus zero, resp. of Krichever Novikov algebras in higher genus.
