Abstract We show that the four-dimensional Chern-Simons theory studied by Costello, Witten and Yamazaki, is, with Nahm pole-type boundary conditions, dual to a boundary theory that is a three-dimensional analogue of Toda theory with a novel 3d W-algebra symmetry. By embedding four-dimensional Chern-Simons theory in a partial twist of the five-dimensional maximally supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on a manifold with corners, we argue that this three-dimensional Toda theory is dual to a two-dimensional topological sigma model with A-branes on the moduli space of solutions to the Bogomolny equations. This furnishes a novel 3d-2d correspondence, which, among other mathematical implications, also reveals that modules of the 3d W-algebra are modules for the quantized algebra of certain holomorphic functions on the Bogomolny moduli space.

Abstract A complete nonsingular toric variety (called a toric manifold) is over $P$ if its quotient by the compact torus is homeomorphic to $P$ as a manifold with corners. Bott manifolds are toric manifolds over an $n$-cube $I^n$ and blowing them up at a fixed point produces toric manifolds over $\operatorname{vc}(I^n)$ an $n$-cube with one vertex cut. They are all projective. On the other hand, Oda’s three-fold, the simplest non-projective toric manifold, is over $\operatorname{vc}(I^3)$. In this paper, we classify toric manifolds over $\operatorname{vc}(I^n)$$(n\ge 3)$ as varieties and as smooth manifolds. It consequently turns out that there are many non-projective toric manifolds over $\operatorname{vc}(I^n)$ but they are all diffeomorphic, and toric manifolds over $\operatorname{vc}(I^n)$ in some class are determined by their cohomology rings as varieties.

This chapter deals with the semi-group on the space Β‎⁰(P). It first describes the boundary behavior of elements of the adjoint operator at points in the interiors of hypersurface boundary components before discussing the null-space of the adjoint under the hypothesis that a generalized Kimura diffusion operator, L, meets bP cleanly. It then examines long time asymptotics, along with a lemma in which P is a compact manifold with corners and L is a generalized Kimura diffusion on P. It also considers the existence of irregular solutions to the homogeneous equations Lu = f, for functions that do not belong to the range of the generator of a C⁰-semi-group on Β‎⁰(P).

This chapter introduces the geometric preliminaries needed to analyze generalized Kimura diffusions, with particular emphasis on Wright–Fisher geometry. It begins with a discussion of the natural domains of definition for generalized Kimura diffusions: polyhedra in Euclidean space or, more generally, abstract manifolds with corners. Amongst the convex polyhedra, the chapter distinguishes the subclass of regular convex polyhedra P. P is a regular convex polyhedron if it is convex and if near any corner, P is the intersection of no more than N half-spaces with corresponding normal vectors that are linearly independent. These definitions establish that any regular convex polyhedron is a manifold with corners. The chapter concludes by defining the general class of elliptic Kimura operators on a manifold with corners P and shows that there is a local normal form for any operator L in this class.

This chapter proves existence of solutions to the inhomogeneous problem using the Schauder estimate and analyzes a generalized Kimura diffusion operator, L, defined on a manifold with corners, P. The discussion centers on the solution w = v + u, where v solves the homogeneous Cauchy problem with v(x, 0) = f(x) and u solves the inhomogeneous problem with u(x, 0) = 0. The chapter first provides definitions for the Wright–Fisher–Hölder spaces on a general compact manifold with corners before explaining the steps involved in the existence proof. It then verifies the induction hypothesis and treats the k = 0 case. It also shows how to perform the doubling construction for P and considers the existence of the resolvent operator and a contraction semi-group. Finally, it discusses the problem of higher regularity.

This chapter proves maximum principles for two parabolic and elliptic equations from which the uniqueness results follow easily. It also considers the main consequences of the maximum principle, both for the model operators on an open orthant and for the general Kimura diffusion operators on a compact manifold with corners, as well as their elliptic analogues. Of particular note in this regard is a generalization of the Hopf boundary point maximum principle. The chapter first presents maximum principles for the model operators before discussing Kimura diffusion operators on manifolds with corners. It then describes maximum principles for the heat equation as well as the corresponding maximum principle and uniqueness result for Kimura diffusion equations.
