Let R be a ring and G a group. An R-module A is said to be artinian-by-(finite rank) if TorR(A) is artinian and A/TorR(A) has finite R-rank. The authors study ZG-modules A such that A/CA(H) is artinian-by-(finite rank) (as a Z-module) for…

If X is the complement of a hypersurface in P^n, then Kohno showed that the nilpotent completion of the fundamental group is isomorphic to the nilpotent completion of the holonomy Lie algebra of X. When X is the complement of a hyperplane…

The Theta rank of a finite point configuration $V$ is the maximal degree necessary for a sum-of-squares representation of a non-negative linear function on $V$. This is an important invariant for polynomial optimization that is in general…

In this article, we establish results concerning the cohomology of Zariski dense subgroups of solvable linear algebraic groups. We show that for an irreducible solvable $\mathbb{Q}$-defined linear algebraic group $\mathbf{G}$, there exists…

Let A be an introverted algebra with mean value. We prove that its spectrum \Delta (A) is a compact topological semigroup, and that the kernel K(\Delta (A)) of \Delta (A) is a compact topological group over which the mean value on A can be…

Using finite abelian automorphism groups of $K3$ we construct orbifold candidates for Type IIA-heterotic dual pairs with maximal supersymmetry in six and lower dimensions. On the heterotic side, these results extend the series of known…

We study the irregularity of hypergeometric D-modules $\mathcal{M}_A (\beta )$ via the explicit construction of Gevrey series solutions along coordinate subspaces in $X =\mathbb{C}^n$. As a consequence, we prove that along coordinate…

We give a dimension formula for the space of logarithm-free series solutions to an A-hypergeometric (or a GKZ hypergeometric) system. In the case where the convex hull spanned by A is a simplex, we give a rank formula for the system,…

The paper contains a description of the maximal ideal spaces (spectra) $\cM_A$ of bi-invariant function algebras $A$ on a compact group $G$. There are natural compatible structures in $\cM_A$: it is a compact topological semigroup with…

Let $\mathcal{L}$ be a rank one local system with field coefficient on the complement $M(\mathcal{A})$ of an essential complex hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ in $\mathbb{C}^\ell$. Dimca-Papadima and Randell independently showed that…

We show that the group of conformal homeomorphisms of the boundary of a rank one symmetric space (except the hyperbolic plane) of noncompact type acts as a maximal convergence group. Moreover, we show that any family of uniformly…

We develop dynamical theory for the family of holomorphic correspondences $\mathcal{F}_a$ proved by the current authors to be matings between the modular group and parabolic rational maps in the Milnor slice $Per_1(1)$ (in 'Mating quadratic…

Let $\mathcal{A} \rightarrow S$ be an abelian scheme over an irreducible variety over $\mathbb{C}$ of relative dimension $g$. For any simply-connected subset $\Delta$ of $S^{\mathrm{an}}$ one can define the Betti map from…

We study cohomology with coefficients in a rank one local system on the complement of an arrangement of hyperplanes $\A$. The cohomology plays an important role for the theory of generalized hypergeometric functions. We combine several…

If $M$ is the complement of a hyperplane arrangement, and $A=H^*(M,\k)$ is the cohomology ring of $M$ over a field of characteristic 0, then the ranks, $\phi_k$, of the lower central series quotients of $\pi_1(M)$ can be computed from the…

We introduce a new quasi-isometry invariant $\subcorank X$ of a metric space $X$ called {\it subexponential corank}. A metric space $X$ has subexponential corank $k$ if roughly speaking there exists a continuous map $g:X\to T$ such that for…

We show that the set $SA(G)$ of equivalence classes of synchronously automatic structures on a geometrically finite hyperbolic group $G$ is dense in the product of the sets $SA(P)$ over all maximal parabolic subgroups $P$. The set $BSA(G)$…

We show that the Zariski closure of the set of hypersurfaces of degree $M$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M}$, where $M\geq 5$, which are either not factorial or not birationally superrigid, is of codimension at least $\binom{M-3}{2}+1$ in the parameter…

We introduce a new algebra associated with a hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}$, called the Solomon-Terao algebra $\mbox{ST}(\mathcal{A},\eta)$, where $\eta$ is a homogeneous polynomial. It is shown by Solomon and Terao that…

An ordered semiring is a commutative semiring equipped with a compatible preorder. Ordered semirings generalise both distributive lattices and commutative rings, and provide a convenient framework to unify certain aspects of lattice theory…
