It is shown that if $A$ is a unital commutative Banach algebra with a dense set of invertible elements, then the maximal ideal space of $A$ contains no compact, locally connected, simply coconnected subspace of topological dimension $\geq…
We construct examples of $C^\infty$ smooth submanifolds in ${\Bbb C}^n$ and ${\Bbb R}^n$ of codimension 2 and 1, which intersect every complex, respectively real, analytic curve in a discrete set. The examples are realized either as compact…
A viable and still unproved conjecture states that, if $X$ is a smooth algebraic surface and $C$ is a smooth algebraic curve in $X$, then $C$ realizes the smallest possible genus amongst all smoothly embedded $2$-manifolds in its homology…
Let $\mathcal{W}^{n}$ be the class of $C^{\infty }$ complete simply connected $n-$dimensional manifolds without conjugate points. The hyperbolic space as well as Euclidean space are good examples of such manifolds. Let $% W\in…
We study a germ of real analytic $n$-dimensional submanifold of ${\mathbf C}^n$ that has a complex tangent space of maximal dimension at a CR singularity. Under the condition that its complexification admits the maximum number of deck…
A graph is Helly if its disks satisfy the Helly property, i.e., every family of pairwise intersecting disks in G has a common intersection. It is known that for every graph G, there exists a unique smallest Helly graph H(G) into which G…
The Bounded Negativity Conjecture predicts that for every complex projective surface $X$ there exists a number $b(X)$ such that $C^2\geq -b(X)$ holds for all reduced curves $C\subset X$. For birational surfaces $f:Y\to X$ there have been…
In this note we study two features of submanifolds (subvarieties) with ample normal bundles in a compact K\"ahler manifold X. First, we study how algebraic X can be, i.e. we investigate the algebraic dimension. Second, we study curves with…
Let $T$ be a $C^{1}$ competitive map on a rectangular region $R\subset \mathbb{R}^{2}$. The main results of this paper give conditions which guarantee the existence of an invariant curve $C$, which is the graph of a continuous increasing…
Let $(M,Q)$ be a compact, three dimensional manifold of strictly negative sectional curvature. Let $(\Sigma,P)$ be a compact, orientable surface of hyperbolic type (i.e. of genus at least two). Let $\theta:\pi_1(\Sigma,P)\to\pi_1(M,Q)$ be a…
We present here "the" cartesian closed theory for real analytic mappings. It is based on the concept of real analytic curves in locally convex vector spaces. A mapping is real analytic, if it maps smooth curves to smooth curves and real…
A host algebra of a topological group G is a C^*-algebra whose representations are in one-to-one correspondence with certain continuous unitary representations of G. In this paper we present an approach to host algebras for infinite…
Although the concept of defect of an analytic disc attached to a generic manifold of $\C^{n}$ seems to play a merely technical role, it turns out to be a rather deep and fruitful notion for the extendability of CR functions defined on the…
Let U be the closed unit disc in C and let p be a point on the unit circle. Let f be a continuous function on U which extends holomorphically from each circle contained in U and centered at the origin, and from each circle contained in U…
Quasi algebraically closed fields, or $C_1$ fields, are defined in terms of a low degree condition. Namely, the field $K$ is $C_1$ if every degree $d$ hypersurface of the projective space $\mathbb{P}_K^n$ contains a $K$-point as soon as…
We show that for a generic nullhomotopic simple closed curve C in the boundary of a compact, orientable, mean convex 3-manifold M with trivial second homology, there is a unique area minimizing disk D embedded in M where the boundary of D…
We say that a simple, closed curve $\gamma$ in the plane has bounded convex curvature if for every point $x$ on $\gamma$, there is an open unit disk $U_x$ and $\varepsilon_x>0$ such that $x\in\partial U_x$ and $B_{\varepsilon_x}(x)\cap…
Using the new approach to analytic geometry developed by Clausen and Scholze by means of condensed mathematics, we prove that for every affinoid analytic adic space $X$, pseudocoherent complexes, perfect complexes, and finite projective…
Let $P(E)$ be the projectivization of a holomorphic vector bundle $E$ over a compact complex curve $C$. We characterize the existence of an extremal K\"ahler metric on the ruled manifold $P(E)$ in terms of relative K-polystability and the…
Let V be a semialgebraic set parameterized by quadratic polynomials over a quadratic set T. This paper studies semidefinite representation of its convex hull by projections of spectrahedra (defined by linear matrix inequalities). When T is…
