Vector ultrametric spaces and a fixed point theorem for correspondences

In this paper, vector ultrametric spaces are introduced and a fixed point theorem is given for correspondences. Our main result generalizes a known theorem in ordinary ultrametric spaces.Comment: 8 page

Equivariant Elliptic Genera and Local McKay Correspondences

We prove an equivariant version of the McKay correspondence for the elliptic genus on open varieties with a torus action. As a consequence, we will prove the equivariant DMVV formula for the Hilbert scheme of points on \C^2

The role of regularity to reach the vector valued version of Caristi's fixed point theorem

In this paper we discuss on the vector valued version of Caristi's theorem. We show that the regularity of the cone is an essential condition to reach the vector valued version of Caristi's theorem in vector valued metric spaces. It is shown that how the absence of the regularity causes some previous Caristi type theorems and results fail to be correct. Our main result give a vector valued version of Caristi's theorem for correspondences with weakened hypotheses in comparison with previous results and generalize them.Comment: This paper will be published in the "Journal of Nonlinear and Convex Analysis (JNCA)" 0n 2015.

Isometry Group of Gromov--Hausdorff Space

The present paper is devoted to investigation of the isometry group of the Gromov-Hausdorff space, i.e., the metric space of compact metric spaces considered up to an isometry and endowed with the Gromov-Hausdorff metric. The main goal is to present a proof of the following theorem by George Lowther (2015): The isometry group of the Gromov-Hausdorff space is trivial. Unfortunately, the author himself has not publish an accurate text for 2 years passed from the publication of draft (that is full of excellent ideas mixed with unproved and wrong statements) in the https://mathoverflow.net/ blog (see the exact reference in he bibliography).Comment: 28 pages, 4 figures, 13 bib item

Exact triangle for fibered Dehn twists

We use quilted Floer theory to generalize Seidel's long exact sequence in symplectic Floer theory to fibered Dehn twists. We then apply it to construct versions of the Floer and Khovanov-Rozansky exact triangles in Lagrangian Floer theory of moduli spaces of bundles.Comment: This version (postpublication) addresses a sign issue on p. 4

Singular Geometry and Higgs Bundles in String Theory

This brief survey aims to set the stage and summarize some of the ideas under discussion at the Workshop on Singular Geometry and Higgs Bundles in String Theory, to be held at the American Institute of Mathematics from October 30th to November 3rd, 2017. One of the most interesting aspects of the duality revolution in string theory is the understanding that gauge fields and matter representations can be described by intersection of branes. Since gauge theory is at the heart of our description of physical interactions, it has opened the door to the geometric engineering of many physical systems, and in particular those involving Higgs bundles. This note presents a curated overview of some current advances and open problems in the area, with no intention of being a complete review of the whole subject

A-infinity functors for Lagrangian correspondences

We construct A-infinity functors between Fukaya categories associated to monotone Lagrangian correspondences between compact symplectic manifolds. We then show that the composition of A-infinity functors for correspondences is homotopic to the functor for the composition, in the case that the composition is smooth and embedded.Comment: 84 pages, 20 figures.

Gluing pseudoholomorphic quilted disks

We construct families of quilted surfaces parametrized by the multiplihedra, and define moduli spaces of pseudoholomorphic quilted disks using the theory of pseudoholomorphic quilts of Wehrheim and Woodward. We prove a gluing theorem for regular, isolated pseudoholomorphic quilted disks. This analytical result is a fundamental ingredient for the construction of A-infinity functors associated to Lagrangian correspondences.Comment: 69 pages, 14 figure

Generalized Vector Quasi-Equilibrium Problems Involving Relaxed Continuity of the Set-Valued Maps

In this paper, we study the existence of solutions for generalized vector quasi-equilibrium problems. Firstly, we prove that in the case of Banach spaces, the assumptions of continuity over correspondences can be weakened. The theoretical analysis is based on fixed-point theorems. Secondly, we establish new equilibrium theorems as applications of the KKM principle.Comment: 19 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1605.0301

A new survey: Cone metric spaces

The purpose of this new survey paper is, among other things, to collect in one place most of the articles on cone (abstract, K-metric) spaces, published after 2007. This list can be useful to young researchers trying to work in this part of functional and nonlinear analysis. On the other hand, the existing review papers on cone metric spaces are updated. The main contribution is the observation that it is usually redundant to treat the case when the underlying cone is solid and non-normal. Namely, using simple properties of cones and Minkowski functionals, it is shown that the problems can be usually reduced to the case when the cone is normal, even with the respective norm being monotone. Thus, we offer a synthesis of the respective fixed point problems arriving at the conclusion that they can be reduced to their standard metric counterparts. However, this does not mean that the whole theory of cone metric spaces is redundant, since some of the problems remain which cannot be treated in this way, which is also shown in the present article.Comment: 27 page
