Working with a singular variety X, one is often interested in comparing the set of etale covers of X with that of its smooth locus X_reg. More precisely, one may ask: What are the obstructions to extend finite etale covers of X_reg to all…

We prove the Kodaira vanishing theorem for log-canonical and semi-log-canonical pairs. We also give a relative vanishing theorem of Reid--Fukuda type for semi-log-canonical pairs.

This paper proves that on any tamed closed almost complex four-manifold $(M,J)$ whose dimension of $J$-anti-invariant cohomology is equal to the self-dual second Betti number minus one, there exists a new symplectic form compatible with the…

We conjecture the equality of the numerical and Kodaira dimensions $\nu_1^*(X)$ and $\kappa_1^*(X)$ for the cotangent bundle of compact K\"ahler manifolds $X$, generalising the classical case of the canonical bundle. We show or reduce it to…

We prove the $W\mathcal{O}$-rationality of klt threefolds and the rational chain connectedness of klt Fano threefolds over a perfect field of characteristic $p>5$. As a consequence, any klt Fano threefold over a finite field has a rational…

We prove that for a fixed klt Calabi-Yau pair $(X,\Delta)$ of dimension $3$, the set of fiber space structures of $X$ is finite up to $Aut(X,\Delta)$.

We study four dimensional $\kappa$-Minkowski spacetime constructed by the twist deformation of $U(igl(4,R))$. We demonstrate that the differential structure of such twist-deformed $\kappa$-Minkowski spacetime is closed in four dimensions…

In this paper we study set mappings on 4-tuples. We continue a previous work of Komjath and Shelah by getting new finite bounds on the size of free sets in a generic extension. This is obtained by an entirely different forcing construction.…

We show the termination of any log-minimal model program for a pair $(X,\Delta)$ of a symplectic manifold $X$ and an effective $\mathbb R$-divisor $\Delta$.

We prove the existence and uniqueness of multiple SLE$_\kappa$ associated with any given link pattern for $\kappa\in (4,6]$. We also have the uniqueness for $\kappa\in (6,8)$. The multiple SLE$_\kappa$ law is constructed by first…

The Kodaira energy of a polarized manifold (M,L) is defined by \kappa\epsilon(M,L)=-Inf{t\in Q|\kappa(K+tL)\ge 0}. Here we propose a couple of conjectures and announce several partial results. 3-dimensional cases are mainly considered. A…

We prove that formal Fourier Jacobi expansions of degree 2 are Siegel modular forms. As a corollary, we deduce modularity of the generating function of special cycles of codimension 2, which were defined by Kudla. A second application is…

In this paper, we construct counterexamples to the boundedness of generalised log canonical models of surfaces with fixed appropriate invariants, where the underlying varieties can have arbitrary Kodaira dimension. This answers a question…

We expand the theory of log canonical $3$-fold complements. We prove that if $X\rightarrow T$ is a $3$-dimensional contraction of log Calabi-Yau type, then we can find $B\geq 0$ on $X$ for which $(X,B)$ is log canonical and $n(K_X+B)\sim_T…

We study logarithmic conformal field theory (LogCFT) in four dimensions using conformal bootstrap techniques in the large spin limit. We focus on the constraints imposed by conformal symmetry on the four point function of certain…

We prove that complete non-locally symmetric quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds with an end of finite volume exist in all dimensions $4m\ge 4$.

We study the pointed or copointed liftings of Nichols algebras associated to affine racks and constant cocycles for any finite group admitting a principal YD-realization of these racks. In the copointed case we complete the classification…

Let $X$ be a normal projective threefold with mild singularities, and $L_X$ a strictly nef $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor on $X$. First, we show the ampleness of $K_X+tL_X$ with sufficiently large $t$ if either the Kodaira dimension $\kappa(X)\neq 0$…

Let $\kappa$ be a commutative ring containing $2^{-1}$. In this paper, we prove the Comes-Kujawa's conjecture on a $\kappa$-basis of cyclotomic oriented Brauer-Clifford supercategory. As a by-product, we prove that the cyclotomic walled…

We show that the Kobayashi pseudometric is well-behaved under resolution of log-terminal singularities. This answers a question of Kamenova and Lehn.
