REPORT ON PIERRE DELIGNE FELLOWSHIP, 2010 SERGEY OBLEZIN During 2010 I have been working on developing a representation theory approach to mirror symmetry and quantum cohomology of homogeneous spaces, associated to Lie groups of classical type. According to Givental the glN -Whittaker functions, being solutions to the quantum cohomology D-module QH (FlN ) of the complete flag variety FlN = GLN (C)/B , describe the corresponding equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of FlN . ...

... arXiv.org . astro-ph . ... We fit the near-infrared to radio spectral energy distributions of 30 luminous and ultra-luminous infrared galaxies with pure starburst models or models that include both starburst and AGN components to determine important physical parameters for this population of objects. In particular we constrain the optical depth towards the luminosity source, the star formation rate, the star formation efficiency and the AGN fraction. ...

This document describes when and how to use name-based virtual hosts. ... IP-based virtual hosts use the IP address of the connection to determine the correct virtual host to serve. ... To use name-based virtual hosting, you must designate the IP address (and possibly port) on the server that will be accepting requests for the hosts. ... For example, suppose that you are serving the domain www.domain.tld and you wish to add the virtual host www.otherdomain.tld , which points at the same IP address. ...
