Singular projective varieties and quantization
By the quantization condition compact quantizable Kaehler manifolds can be
embedded into projective space. In this way they become projective varieties.
The quantum Hilbert space of the Berezin-Toeplitz quantization (and of the
geometric quantization) is the projective coordinate ring of the embedded
manifold. This allows for generalization to the case of singular varieties. The
set-up is explained in the first part of the contribution. The second part of
the contribution is of tutorial nature. Necessary notions, concepts, and
results of algebraic geometry appearing in this approach to quantization are
explained. In particular, the notions of projective varieties, embeddings,
singularities, and quotients appearing in geometric invariant theory are
recalled.Comment: 21 pages, 3 figure

Approximate Hermitian-Yang-Mills structures and semistability for Higgs bundles. II: Higgs sheaves and admissible structures
We study the basic properties of Higgs sheaves over compact K\"ahler
manifolds and we establish some results concerning the notion of semistability;
in particular, we show that any extension of semistable Higgs sheaves with
equal slopes is semistable. Then, we use the flattening theorem to construct a
regularization of any torsion-free Higgs sheaf and we show that it is in fact a
Higgs bundle. Using this, we prove that any Hermitian metric on a
regularization of a torsion-free Higgs sheaf induces an admissible structure on
the Higgs sheaf. Finally, using admissible structures we proved some properties
of semistable Higgs sheaves.Comment: 18 pages; some typos correcte
Proof of the Hyperplane Zeros Conjecture of Lagarias and Wang
We prove that a real analytic subset of a torus group that is contained in
its image under an expanding endomorphism is a finite union of translates of
closed subgroups. This confirms the hyperplane zeros conjecture of Lagarias and
Wang for real analytic varieties. Our proof uses real analytic geometry,
topological dynamics and Fourier analysis.Comment: 25 page
Singular open book structures from real mappings
We prove extensions of Milnor's theorem for germs with nonisolated
singularity and use them to find new classes of genuine real analytic mappings
with positive dimensional singular locus \Sing \psi \subset
\psi^{-1}(0), for which the Milnor fibration exists and yields an open book
structure with singular binding.Comment: more remark
The Quantum McKay Correspondence for polyhedral singularities
Let G be a polyhedral group, namely a finite subgroup of SO(3). Nakamura's
G-Hilbert scheme provides a preferred Calabi-Yau resolution Y of the polyhedral
singularity C^3/G. The classical McKay correspondence describes the classical
geometry of Y in terms of the representation theory of G. In this paper we
describe the quantum geometry of Y in terms of R, an ADE root system associated
to G. Namely, we give an explicit formula for the Gromov-Witten partition
function of Y as a product over the positive roots of R. In terms of counts of
BPS states (Gopakumar-Vafa invariants), our result can be stated as a
correspondence: each positive root of R corresponds to one half of a genus zero
BPS state. As an application, we use the crepant resolution conjecture to
provide a full prediction for the orbifold Gromov-Witten invariants of [C^3/G].Comment: Introduction rewritten. Issue regarding non-uniqueness of conifold
resolution clarified. Version to appear in Inventione
