Locally conformally Kähler manifolds admitting a holomorphic conformal flow

A manifold M is locally conformally Kähler (LCK) if it admits a Kähler covering ${\tilde{M}}$ with monodromy acting by holomorphic homotheties. Let M be an LCK manifold admitting a holomorphic conformal flow of diffeomorphisms, lifted to a non-isometric homothetic flow on ${\tilde{M}}$ . We show that M admits an automorphic potential, and the monodromy group of its conformal weight bundle is ${\mathbb{Z}}$ .     

Generalized Calogero–Moser systems from rational Cherednik algebras

We consider ideals of polynomials vanishing on the W-orbits of the intersections of mirrors of a finite reflection group W. We determine all such ideals that are invariant under the action of the corresponding rational Cherednik algebra hence form submodules in the polynomial module. We show that a quantum integrable system can be defined for every such ideal for a real reflection group W. This leads to known and new integrable systems of Calogero–Moser type which we explicitly specify. In the case of classical Coxeter groups, we also obtain generalized Calogero–Moser systems with added quadratic potential.     

Evidence for the importance of extended Coulomb interactions and forward scattering in cuprate superconductors

The prevalent view of the high-temperature superconducting cuprates is that their essential low-energy physics is captured by local Coulomb interactions. However, this view been challenged recently by studies indicating the importance of longer-range components. Motivated by this, we demonstrate the importance of these components by examining the electron-phonon (e-ph) interaction with acoustic phonons in connection with the recently discovered renormalization in the near-nodal low-energy (~8-15 meV) dispersion of Bi(2)Sr(2)CaCu(2)O(8+δ). By studying its nontrivial momentum and doping dependence we conclude a predominance of forward scattering arising from the direct interplay between the e-ph and extended Coulomb interactions. Our results thus demonstrate how the low-energy renormalization can provide a pathway to new insights into how these interactions interplay with one another and influence pairing and dynamics in the cuprates.     

Attosecond photoelectron spectroscopy of electron tunneling in a dissociating hydrogen molecular ion

We demonstrate the potential of intense-field pump, attosecond probe photoelectron spectroscopy to monitor electron tunneling between the two protons during dissociative ionization of the hydrogen molecule, with attosecond temporal and Angstrom-scale spatial resolution.     

Any component of moduli of polarized hyperkähler manifolds is dense in its deformation space

Let M be a compact hyperkähler manifold, and W the coarse moduli of complex deformations of M. Every positive integer class v   in H²(M)$H^2(M)$ defines a divisor _Dv$D_v$ in W consisting of all algebraic manifolds polarized by v. We prove that every connected component of this divisor is dense in W.     

Plurisubharmonic functions on hypercomplex manifolds and HKT-geometry

A hypercomplex manifold is a manifold equipped with a triple of complex structures I, J, K satisfying the quaternionic relations. We define a quaternionic analogue of plurisubharmonic functions on hypercomplex manifolds, and interpret these functions geometrically as potentials of HKT (hyperkähler with torsion) metrics. We prove a quaternionic analogue of A. D. Aleksandrov and ChernLevine-Nirenberg theorems.     

Generic points of quadrics and Chow groups

In this article we study the sufficient conditions for the k̅-defined element of the Chow group of a smooth variety to be k-rational (defined over k). For 0-cycles this question was addressed earlier. Our methods work for cycles of arbitrary dimension. We show that it is sufficient to check this property over the generic point of a quadric of sufficiently large dimension. Among the applications one should mention the uniform construction of fields with all known u-invariants.     

Weak Solutions of the Navier–Stokes Equations for Compressible Flows in a Half-Space with No-Slip Boundary Conditions

We consider the Navier–Stokes equations for the motion of compressible, viscous flows in a half-space ${\mathbb{R}^n_+,}$ n =  2,  3, with the no-slip boundary conditions. We prove the existence of a global weak solution when the initial data are close to a static equilibrium. The density of the weak solution is uniformly bounded and does not contain a vacuum, the velocity is Hölder continuous in (x, t) and the material acceleration is weakly differentiable. The weak solutions of this type were introduced by D. Hoff in Arch Ration Mech Anal 114(1):15–46, (1991), Commun Pure and Appl Math 55(11):1365–1407, (2002) for the initial-boundary value problem in ${\Omega = \mathbb{R}^n}$ and for the problem in ${\Omega = \mathbb{R}^n_+}$ with the Navier boundary conditions.
