Given a semi-algebraic set S, we study compactifications of S that arise from embeddings into complete toric varieties. This makes it possible to describe the asymptotic growth of polynomial functions on S in terms of combinatorial data. We…

We equip integral graded-polarized mixed period spaces with a natural $\mathbb{R}_{alg}$-definable analytic structure, and prove that any period map associated to an admissible variation of integral graded-polarized mixed Hodge structures…

Our main result is the following: let X be a normal affine toric surface without torus factor. Then there exists a non-normal affine toric surface X' with automorphism group isomorphic to the automorphism group of X if and only if X is…

We give a novel and effective criterion for algebraicity of rational normal analytic surfaces constructed from resolving the singularity of an irreducible curve-germ on $CP^2$ and contracting the strict transform of a given line and all but…

It is shown that the extension of $\R$ by a generic smooth function restricted to the unit cube is o-minimal. The generalization to countably many generic smooth functions is indicated. Possible applications are sketched.

We proved recently math.CA/0510403 that the anti-analytic part of a trigonometric series, converging to zero almost everywhere, may be square integrable on the circle. Here we prove that it can even be infinitely differentiable, and we…

We present a simple and fast embedded resolution of varieties and principalization of ideals using torus actions on ambient smooth varieties with simple normal crossings (SNC) divisors. The canonical functorial resolution in characteristic…

We classify all complex surfaces with quotient singularities that do not contain any smooth rational curves, under the assumption that the canonical divisor of the surface is not pseudo-effective. As a corollary we show that if $X$ is a log…

Let $X$ be a smooth proper curve over a finite field and let $\infty \in X$ be a closed point. Let $A$ be the ring of functions on $X - \infty$. The Goss zeta function $\zeta_A$ of $A$ is an equicharacteristic analogue of the Riemann zeta…

Nash and Tognoli show that smooth closed manifolds can be the zero sets of some real polynomial maps and non-singular. The canonical projections of spheres naturally embedded in the $1$-dimensional higher Euclidean spaces and some natural…

Let $A$ be a non-isotrivial almost ordinary abelian surface with possibly bad reductions over a global function field of odd characteristic $p$. Suppose $\Delta$ is an infinite set of positive integers, such that…

In this note, we give the affirmative answer of the question in [18], which is a compactness result of the non-radial Sobolev spaces. As an application, we show the existence of an extremal function of the critical Hardy inequality under…

If F is a global function field of characteristic p>3, we employ Tate's theory of analytic uniformization to give an alternative proof of a theorem of Igusa describing the image of the natural Galois representation on torsion points of…

The aim of this work is to define a continuous functional calculus in quaternionic Hilbert spaces, starting from basic issues regarding the notion of spherical spectrum of a normal operator. As properties of the spherical spectrum suggest,…

Double ramification loci, also known as strata of $0$-differentials, are algebraic subvarieties of the moduli space of smooth curves parametrizing Riemann surfaces such that there exists a rational function with prescribed ramification over…

A Q-homology plane is a normal complex algebraic surface having trivial rational homology. We obtain a structure theorem for Q-homology planes with smooth locus of non-general type. We show that if a Q-homology plane contains a non-quotient…

In the context of the complex-analytic structure within the open unit disk, that was established in a previous paper, here we establish a simple generalization of the Cauchy-Goursat theorem of complex analytic functions. We do this first…

We show that the fundamental groups of normal complex algebraic varieties share many properties of the fundamental groups of smooth varieties. The jump loci of rank one local systems on a normal variety are related to the jump loci of a…

In this note we show that given a smooth affine variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ and an effective (possibly non reduced) Cartier divisor $D$ on it, the Kerz-Saito Chow group of zero cycles with modulus ${\rm CH}_0(X|D)$ is…
