Abstract:
We prove some conjectures of Evans and Katz presented in a paper by Evans regarding twisted Kloosterman sheaf sums Tn. These conjectures give explicit evaluations of the sums Tn where the character is cubic and n = 4. There are also conjectured relationships between evaluations of Tn and the coefficients of certain modular forms. For three of these modular forms, each of weight 3, it is conjectured that the coefficients are related to the squares of the coefficients of weight 2 modular forms. We prove these relationships using the theory of complex multiplication.

Abstract:
4D self-dual theories are proposed to generalize 2D conformal field theory. We identify 4D self-dual gravity as well as self-dual Yang-Mills theory with 2D sigma models valued in infinite-dimensional gauge groups. It is shown that these models possess infinite-dimensional symmetries with associated algebras—“CP1 extensions” of respective gauge algebras of 2D sigma models—which generalize the Kac-Moody algebra as well as W∞. We address various issues concerning 2D sigma models, twistors and sheaf cohomology. An attempt to connect 4D self-dual theories with 2D conformal field theory is made through sl (∞) Toda field theory.

Abstract:
A key obstruction to the twistor programme has been its so-called ‘googly problem’, unresolved for nearly 40 years, which asks for a twistor description of right -handed interacting massless fields (positive helicity), using the same twistor conventions that give rise to left -handed fields (negative helicity) in the standard ‘nonlinear graviton’ and Ward constructions. An explicit proposal for resolving this obstruction— palatial twistor theory —is put forward (illustrated in the case of gravitation). This incorporates the concept of a non-commutative holomorphic quantized twistor ‘Heisenberg algebra’, extending the sheaves of holomorphic functions of conventional twistor theory to include the operators of twistor differentiation.

Abstract:
We review aspects of twistor theory, its aims and achievements spanning the last five decades. In the twistor approach, space–time is secondary with events being derived objects that correspond to compact holomorphic curves in a complex threefold—the twistor space. After giving an elementary construction of this space, we demonstrate how solutions to linear and nonlinear equations of mathematical physics—anti-self-duality equations on Yang–Mills or conformal curvature—can be encoded into twistor cohomology. These twistor correspondences yield explicit examples of Yang–Mills and gravitational instantons, which we review. They also underlie the twistor approach to integrability: the solitonic systems arise as symmetry reductions of anti-self-dual (ASD) Yang–Mills equations, and Einstein–Weyl dispersionless systems are reductions of ASD conformal equations. We then review the holomorphic string theories in twistor and ambitwistor spaces, and explain how these theories give rise to remarkable new formulae for the computation of quantum scattering amplitudes. Finally, we discuss the Newtonian limit of twistor theory and its possible role in Penrose’s proposal for a role of gravity in quantum collapse of a wave function.

Abstract:
The present study deals with the dynamic stability of laminated composite pre-twisted cantilever panels. The effects of various parameters on the principal instability regions are studied using Bolotin's approach and finite element method. The first-order shear deformation theory is used to model the twisted curved panels, considering the effects of transverse shear deformation and rotary inertia. The results on the dynamic stability studies of the laminated composite pre-twisted panels suggest that the onset of instability occurs earlier and the width of dynamic instability regions increase with introduction of twist in the panel. The instability occurs later for square than rectangular twisted panels. The onset of instability occurs later for pre-twisted cylindrical panels than the flat panels due to addition of curvature. However, the spherical pre-twisted panels show small increase of nondimensional excitation frequency.

By decomposing SU (4)R representation of [Formula: see text] twistor superfields into the SU (2)R representation with an invariant U (1)R charge, the surviving [Formula: see text] twistor superfields contain the physical states of [Formula: see text] conformal supergravity.

Abstract:
AbstractAs a generalization of the conformal structure of type (2, 2), we study Grassmannian structures of type (n, m) forn, m≥ 2. We develop their twistor theory by considering the complete integrability of the associated null distributions. The integrability corresponds to global solutions of the geometric structures.A Grassmannian structure of type (n, m) on a manifoldMis, by definition, an isomorphism from the tangent bundleTMofMto the tensor productV ⊗ Wof two vector bundlesVandWwith ranknandmoverMrespectively. Because of the tensor product structure, we have two null plane bundles with fibresPm-1(ℝ) andPn-1(ℝ) overM. The tautological distribution is defined on each two bundles by a connection. We relate the integrability condition to the half flatness of the Grassmannian structures. Tanaka’s normal Cartan connections are fully used and the Spencer cohomology groups of graded Lie algebras play a fundamental role.Besides the integrability conditions corrsponding to the twistor theory, the lifting theorems and the reduction theorems are derived. We also study twistor diagrams under Weyl connections.
