In this paper we consider the relation between the spectrum and the number of short cycles in large graphs. Suppose $G_1, G_2, G_3, \ldots$ is a sequence of finite and connected graphs that share a common universal cover $T$ and such that…

We provide a coordinate-free version of the local classification, due to A. G. Walker [Quart. J. Math. Oxford (2) 1, 69 (1950)], of null parallel distributions on pseudo-Riemannian manifolds. The underlying manifold is realized, locally, as…

We study the problem of classifying local projective structures in dimension two having non trivial Lie symmetries. In particular we obtain a classification of flat projective structures having positive dimensional Lie algebra of projective…

We restate the semistable reduction theorem from geometric invariant theory in the context of spaces of morphisms on $\mathbb{P}^{n}$. For every complete curve $C$ downstairs, we get a $\mathbb{P}^{n}$-bundle on an abstract curve $D$…

For each integer n, an n-folding curve is obtained by folding n times a strip of paper in two, possibly up or down, and unfolding it with right angles. Generalizing the usual notion of infinite folding curve, we define complete folding…

We characterize the geometry and topology of the set of all weight vectors for which a linear neural network computes the same linear transformation $W$. This set of weight vectors is called the fiber of $W$ (under the matrix multiplication…

We construct a new autoequivalence of the derived category of the Hilbert scheme of n points on a K3 surface, and of the variety of lines on a smooth cubic 4-fold. For Hilb^2 and the variety of lines, we use the theory of spherical…

We study several models of random geometric subdivisions arising from the model of Diaconis and Miclo (2011). In particular, we show that the limiting shape of an indefinite subdivision of a quadrilateral is a.s.\ a parallelogram. We also…

We classify the geometries of the most general warped, flux AdS backgrounds of heterotic supergravity up to two loop order in sigma model perturbation theory. We show under some mild assumptions that there are no $AdS_n$ backgrounds with…

This paper completes the foundations of neatly integrable normal distribution theory on manifolds with boundary. Normal distributions are those which contain vectors transverse to the boundary along its entirety. The theory is observed to…

Using a complex parametrisation of $su(2)$, we show a change of coordinates that maps the maximally symmetric rolling $(2,3,5)$-distribution to the flat Cartan distribution. This establishes the local equivalence between the maximally…

Given two smooth manifolds with tangent subbundle distributions, an embedding is Pfaffian if its differential sends the distribution on the source into the distribution on the target. In this paper, we consider the question of existence of…

We reduce CR-structures on smooth elliptic and hyperbolic manifolds of CR-codimension 2 to parallelisms thus solving the problem of global equivalence for such manifolds. The parallelism that we construct is defined on a sequence of two…

We consider two natural problems arising in geometry which are equivalent to the local solvability of specific equations of Monge-Ampere type. These two problems are: the local isometric embedding problem for two-dimensional Riemannian…

This paper analyses the parabolic geometries generated by a free $n$-distribution in the tangent space of a manifold. It shows that certain holonomy reductions of the associated normal Tractor connections, imply preferred connections with…

We prove an equidistribution result for totally geodesic submanifolds in a compact locally symmetric space. In the case of Hermitian locally symmetric spaces, this gives a convergence theorem for currents of integration along totally…

The modular variety of non singular and complete hyperelliptic curves with level-two structure of genus 3 is a 5-dimensional quasi projective variety which admits several standard compactifications. The first one, X, comes from the…

We present a class of smooth supersymmetric heterotic solutions with a non-compact Eguchi-Hanson space. The non-compact geometry is embedded as the base of a six-dimensional non-Kahler manifold with a non-trivial torus fiber. We solve the…

In this paper we will show the following result: Let $\mathcal{N} $ be a complete (noncompact) connected orientable Riemannian three-manifold with nonnegative scalar curvature $S \geq 0$ and bounded sectional curvature $ K_{s} \leq K $.…

We study warped flat geometries in three-dimensional topologically massive gravity. They are quotients of global warped flat spacetime, whose isometries are given by the 2-dimensional centrally extended Poincar\'e algebra. The latter can be…
