Abstract

The structure equations for a surface are introduced and two required results based on the Codazzi equations are obtained from them. Important theorems pertaining to isometric surfaces are stated and a theorem of Bonnet is obtained. A tranformation formula for the connection forms is developed. It is proved that the angle of deformation must be harmonic. It is shown that the differentials of many of the important variables generate a closed differential ideal. This implies that a coordinate system exists in which many of the variables satisfy particular ordinary differential equations and these results can be used to characterize Bonnet surfaces.

Dirac operators twisted by ramified Euclidean line bundles

This article is concerned with the analysis of Dirac operators $D$ twisted by ramified Euclidean line bundles $(Z,\mathfrak{l})$-motivated by their relation with harmonic $\mathbf{Z}/2\mathbf{Z}$ spinors, which have appeared in various context in gauge theory and calibrated geometry. The closed extensions of $D$ are described in terms of the Gelfand-Robbin quotient $\check{\mathbf{H}}$. Assuming that the branching locus $Z$ is a closed cooriented codimension two submanifold, a geometric realisation of $\check{\mathbf{H}}$ is constructed. This, in turn, leads to an $L^2$ regularity theory.

New Solutions to the $G_2$ Hull-Strominger System via torus fibrations over $K3$ orbifolds

Using torus fibrations over K3 orbisurfaces, we construct new smooth solutions to the $G_2$ Hull-Strominger system. These manifolds arise as total spaces of principal $T^3$ (orbi)bundles over singular K3 surfaces. Our construction is based on the choice of three divisors on a singular K3 surface that are primitive with respect to a particular Kählermetric. The stable bundle is obtained via an adaptation of the Serre construction to the singular setting.

On vector-valued multisymplectic forms

We obtain a standard local presentation for a vector-valued multisymplectic form on a smooth manifold, generalizing the known proof for polysymplectic forms. We show that vector-valued multisymplectic forms on a finite-dimensional real vector space form a non-unital operad. We prove an entropy inequality for partial compositions.
