We give a summary of joint work with Michael Thaddeus that realizes toroidal compactifcations of split reductive groups as moduli spaces of framed bundles on chains of rational curves. We include an extension of this work that covers Artin…
In this paper we describe compactified universal Jacobians, i.e. compactifications of the moduli space of line bundles on smooth curves obtained as moduli spaces of rank 1 torsion-free sheaves on stable curves, using an approach due to…
This paper, together with a forthcoming paper by the author and Seitz, proves the Margulis-Platonov conjecture concerning the normal subgroup structure of algebraic groups over number fields, in the case of inner forms of anisotropic groups…
We introduce a variant of horocompactification which takes "directions" into account. As an application, we construct a compactification of the Teichm\"uller spaces via the renormalized volume of quasi-Fuchsian manifolds. Although we…
Given a closed Riemannian manifold of dimenion less than eight, we prove a compactness result for the space of closed, embedded minimal hypersurfaces satisfying a volume bound and a uniform lower bound on the first eigenvalue of the…
It is a well-known result in pointfree topology that every locally compact frame is spatial. Whether this result extends to MT-algebras (McKinsey-Tarski algebras) was an open problem. We resolve it in the negative by constructing a locally…
A compactness of the Revuz map is established in the sense that the locally uniform convergence of a sequence of positive continuous additive functionals is derived in terms of their smooth measures. To this end, we first introduce a metric…
We show the area-minimality property of all homogeneous area-minimizing hypercones in Euclidean spaces (classified by Lawlor) following Lawson's original idea in his 72' Trans. A.M.S. paper "The equivariant Plateau problem and interior…
The aim of this article is to give a rather extensive, and yet nontechnical, account of the birth of the regularity theory for generalized minimal surfaces, of its various ramifications along the decades, of the most recent developments,…
In this paper we prove two new abstract compactness criteria in normed spaces. To this end we first introduce the notion of an equinormed set using a suitable family of semi-norms on the given normed space satisfying some natural…
The result of this paper is proved in arXiv:1112.1163
In a previous paper, we obtained several "compact versions" of Rubio de Francia's weighted extrapolation theorem, which allowed us to extrapolate the compactness of linear operators from just one space to the full range of weighted Lebesgue…
Inspired by the results obtained in \cite{SR}, in this work, we develop techniques to handle the contraction property for weak normalization and Lipschitz saturation of algebras for the following types of algebras: universally injective,…
In 2003, Atserias and Dalmau resolved a major open question about the resolution proof system by establishing that the space complexity of CNF formulas is always an upper bound on the width needed to refute them. Their proof is beautiful…
By studying the effects of the shape moduli associated with toroidal compactifications, we demonstrate that Planck-sized extra dimensions can cast significant ``shadows'' over low-energy physics. These shadows can greatly distort our…
A reflexion space is generalization of a symmetric space introduced by O. Loos. We generalize locally symmetric spaces to local reflexion spaces in the similar way. We investigate, when local reflexion spaces are equivalently given by a…
The efficacy of using complexifications to understand the structure of real algebraic groups is demonstrated. In particular the following results are proved: a) If L is an algebraic subgroup of a connected real algebraic group G such that…
In this paper, we continue to study one of the classic problems in general topology raised by P.S. Alexandrov: when a Hausdorff space $X$ has a continuous bijection (a condensation) onto a compactum? We concentrate on the situation when not…
We show that the moduli space of rational elliptic surfaces admitting a section is locally a complex hyperbolic variety of dimension eight. We compare its Satake-Baily-Borel compactification with a compactification obtained by means of…
V.I. Arnold (1971) constructed a simple normal form to which all complex matrices $B$ in a neighborhood $U$ of a given square matrix $A$ can be reduced by similarity transformations that smoothly depend on the entries of $B$. We calculate…
