We show that the emerging field of discrete differential geometry can be usefully brought to bear on crystallization problems. In particular, we give a simplified proof of the Heitmann-Radin crystallization theorem (R. C. Heitmann, C.…
We proof here the existence of a topological thick and thin decomposition of any closed definable thick isolated singularity germ in the spirit of the recently discovered metric thick and thin decomposition of complex normal surface…
This article is devoted to the study of a higher-dimensional generalisation of de Rham epsilon lines. To a holonomic $D$-module $M$ on a smooth variety $X$ and a generic tuple of $1$-form $(\nu_1,\dots,\nu_n)$, we associate a point of the…
We give a criterion for extending a generically semisimple (not necessarily conformal) Frobenius manifold locally near a smooth point of the discriminant to a cohomological field theory. As an application, we show that a large set of…
We show that a compact complex surface which fibers smoothly over a curve of genus >1 with fibers of genus >1 fibers holomorphically. We deduce an improvement of a result in [D Kotschick, Math. Research Letters, 5 (1998) 227-234], and a…
We study the relation between isolated hypersurface singularities (e.g. ADE) and the quantum cohomology ring by using spectral invariants, which are symplectic invariants coming from Floer theory. We prove, under the assumption that the…
We introduce a natural notion of holomorphic map between generalized complex manifolds and we prove some related results on Dirac structures and generalized Kaehler manifolds.
We prove that the derived direct image of the constant sheaf with field coefficients under any proper map with smooth source contains a canonical summand. This summand, which we call the geometric extension, only depends on the generic…
One of the main questions in the theory of normal surface singularities is to understand the relations between their geometry and topology. The lattice cohomology is an important tool in the study of topological properties of a plumbed…
We study the moduli space $\textsf{T}$ of the Calabi-Yau $n$-folds arising from the Dwork family and enhanced with bases of the $n$-th de Rham cohomology with constant cup product and compatible with Hodge filtration. We also describe a…
We develop recursive formulas for the horizontal and vertical monodromies of a quasi-ordinary surface. These are monodromies associated to the Milnor fiber of a slice transverse to a component of the singular locus. In the course of working…
In this note we discuss the geometry of Riemannian surfaces having a discrete set of singular points. We assume the conformal structure extends through the singularities and the curvature is integrable. Such points are called \emph{simple…
We provide a cohomological interpretation of the zeroth stable $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy group of a smooth curve over an infinite perfect field. We show that this group is isomorphic to the first Nisnevich (or Zariski) cohomology group of a…
Under suitable conditions on the range of the Gauss map of a complete submanifold of Euclidean space with parallel mean curvature, we construct a strongly subharmonic function and derive a-priori estimates for the harmonic Gauss map. The…
In this paper we introduce the concept of Deligne cohomology of an orbifold. We prove that the third Deligne cohomology group of a smooth \'{e}tale groupoid classify gerbes with connection over the groupoid. We argue that the $B$-field and…
Homology with values in a connection with possibly irregular singular points on an algebraic curve is defined, generalizing homology with values in the underlying local system for a connection with regular singular points. Integration…
This is a survey article on ordinary differential equations over nonarchimedean fields based on the author's lecture at the 2015 Simons Symposium on nonarchimedean and tropical geometry. Topics include: the convergence polygon associated to…
In this note, we show that if $f\colon M\rightarrow X$ is a germ of a projective Lagrangian fibration from a holomorphic symplectic manifold $M$ onto a normal analytic variety $X$ with isolated quotient singularities, then $X$ is smooth. In…
It is shown that every algebra over the chain operad of the little disks operad gives naturally rise to a Hertling-Manin's F-manifold, that is a smooth manifold equipped with an integrable graded commutative associative product on the…
Let X be a projective, equidimensional, singular scheme over an algebraically closed field. Then the existence of a geometric smoothing (i.e. a family of deformations of X over a smooth base curve whose generic fibre is smooth) implies the…
