We prove an optimal Kawamata-Miyaoka-type inequality for terminal $\mathbb Q$-Fano threefolds with Fano index at least $3$. As an application, any terminal $\mathbb Q$-Fano threefold $X$ satisfies the following Kawamata-Miyaoka-type…

Fractions $\frac{p}{q} \in [0,1)$ with prime denominator $q$ written in decimal have a curious property described by Midy's Theorem, namely that two halves of their period (if it is of even length $2n$) sum up to $10^n-1$. A number of…

Wahl's local Euler characteristic measures the local contributions of a singularity to the usual Euler characteristic of a sheaf. Using tools from toric geometry, we study the local Euler characteristic of sheaves of symmetric differentials…

Finite automata were used to determine multiple addresses in number systems and to find topological properties of self-affine tiles and finite type fractals. We join these two lines of research by axiomatically defining automata which…

We revisit and generalize inequalities for the summatory function of the sum of digits in a given integer base. We prove that several known results can be deduced from a theorem in a 2023 paper by Mohanty, Greenbury, Sarkany, Narayanan,…

We introduce sparse versions of function spaces that are relevant to characterize the solutions of Euler equations without concentration. The standard Sobolev space $H^{-1}$ is given a sparse structure that allows to measure the degree of…

Melrose defined the b-tangent bundle of a smooth manifold M with boundary as the vector bundle whose sections are vector fields on M tangent to the boundary. Mendoza defined a complex b-manifold as a manifold with boundary together with an…

The goal of this survey is to present intimate interactions between four branches of conformal dynamics: iterations of anti-rational maps, actions of Kleinian reflection groups, dynamics generated by Schwarz reflections in quadrature…

In this paper we study substitutions and some of their associated generating functions. This association takes aperiodicity to transcendence, and vice-versa. These generating functions have a recursive structure arising from the…

This article proves, in the case of split groups over arbitrary fields, that all fibers of convolution morphisms attached to parahoric affine flag varieties are paved by products of affine lines and affine lines minus a point. This applies…

Let $A$ be an abelian surface over an algebraically closed field $\overline{k}$ with an embedding $\overline{k}\hookrightarrow\mathbb{C}$. When $A$ is isogenous to a product of elliptic curves, we describe a large collection of pairwise…

The question of how Algebra can be used to solve dynamical systems and characterize chaos was first posed in a fertile mathematical context by Ziglin, Morales, Ramis and Sim\'o using differential Galois theory. Their study was aimed at…

Conway and Ryba considered a table of bi-infinite Fibonacci sequences and discovered new interesting patterns. We extend their considerations to tables that are defined by the recurrence $X_{n+1}=dX_n+X_{n-1}$ for natural numbers $d$. In…

We provide a unified viewpoint on two illposedness mechanisms for dispersive equations in one spatial dimension, namely degenerate dispersion and (the failure of) the Takeuchi--Mizohata condition. Our approach is based on a robust energy-…

This work is concerned with the existence of mild solutions and the uniqueness of distributional solutions to nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations with nonlocal operators $\Psi(-\Delta)$, where $\Psi$ is a Bernstein function. As applications,…

We present a novel method for learning reduced-order models of dynamical systems using nonlinear manifolds. First, we learn the manifold by identifying nonlinear structure in the data through a general representation learning problem. The…

This work is the extension of the results by the author in [7] and [6] for low-genus surfaces. Let $S$ be an orientable, connected surface of finite topological type, with genus $g \leq 2$, empty boundary, and complexity at least $2$; as a…

The Green-Lazarsfeld Secant Conjecture is a generalization of Green's Conjecture on syzygies of canonical curves to the cases of arbitrary line bundles. We establish the Green-Lazarsfeld Secant Conjecture for curves of genus g in all the…

Let $\Omega^d$ be the $d$-dimensional Drinfeld symmetric space for a finite extension $F$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. Let $\Sigma^1$ be a geometrically connected component of the first Drinfeld covering of $\Omega^d$ and let $\mathbb{F}$ be the…

We generalize techniques by Coskun, Riedl, and Yeong, and obtain an almost optimal bound on the degree for the algebraic hyperbolicity of very general hypersurfaces in rational homogeneous varieties. As examples, we work out the cases of…
