The Shafarevich conjecture/problem is about the finiteness of isomorphism classes of a family of varieties defined over a number field with good reduction outside a finite collection of places. For K3 surfaces, such a finiteness result was…
We develop the theory of probabilistic variants of the one-category and diagonal topological complexity, which bound the classical LS-category and topological complexity from below. Unlike any other classical or probabilistic invariants,…
We prove a strengthening of the Grothendieck-Lefschetz hyperplane theorem for local Picard groups conjectured by Koll\'ar. Our approach, which relies on acyclicity results for absolute integral closures, also leads to a restriction theorem…
We continue our study of the dynamics of mappings with small topological degree on (projective) complex surfaces. Previously, under mild hypotheses, we have constructed an ergodic ``equilibrium'' measure for each such mapping. Here we study…
We show that if $\phi : X \to X$ is an automorphism of a smooth projective variety and $D \subset X$ is an irreducible divisor for which the set of $d$ in $D$ with $\phi^n(d)$ in $D$ for some nonzero $n$ is not Zariski dense, then $(X,…
Continuous wavelet transforms arising from the quasiregular representation of a semidirect product of a vector group with a matrix group -- the so-called dilation group -- have been studied by various authors. Recently the attention has…
A Frechet algebra endowed with a multiplicatively convex topology has two types of invariants: homotopy invariants (topological K-theory and periodic cyclic homology) and secondary invariants (multiplicative K-theory and the non-periodic…
We study some classes of semi-linear differential equations including both well-posed and ill-posed cases that can generate cocycles (or cocycle correspondences with generating cocycles). Under exponential dichotomy condition with other…
The degree sequence of the algebraic numbers in an algebraic linear recurrence sequence is shown to be virtually periodic. This is proved using the Skolem-Mahler-Lech theorem. It has applications to the degree sequence and the minimal…
We solve several open problems concerning integer points of polytopes arising in symplectic and algebraic geometry. In this direction we give the first proof of a broad case of Ewald's Conjecture (1988) concerning symmetric integral points…
We prove that a weakly ergodic, strong Feller semigroup on the space of measures converges strongly to a projection onto its fixed space. In contrast to a recent result of Gerlach we do not assume the semigroup to be stochastically…
The generalized Mordell-Lang conjecture (GML) is the statement that the irreducible components of the Zariski closure of a subset of a group of finite rank inside a semi-abelian variety are translates of closed algebraic subgroups. M.…
We consider linear cocycles taking values in $\textup{SL}_d(\mathbb{R})$ driven by homeomorphic transformations of a smooth manifold, in discrete and continuous time. We show that any discrete-time cocycle can be extended to a…
For $G$ a symplectic or orthogonal $p$-adic group (not necessarily split), or an inner form of a general linear $p$-adic group, we compute the endomorphism algebras of some induced projective generators \`a la Bernstein of the category of…
In this paper, we study relative deformations of maps into a family of K\"ahler manifolds whose images are divisors. We show that if the map satisfies a condition called semiregularity, then it allows relative deformations if and only if…
Let $f:\mathbb{T}\to\mathbb{R}$ be a Morse function of class $C^2$ with exactly two critical points, let $\omega\in\mathbb{T}$ be Diophantine, and let $\lambda>0$ be sufficiently large (depending on $f$ and $\omega$). For any value of the…
We give a new proof of Ohta's Lambda-adic Eichler-Shimura isomorphism using p-adic Hodge theory and the results of Bloch-Kato and Hyodo on p-adic etale cohomology.
A lot of good properties of etale cohomology only hold for torsion coefficients. We use "enlargement of categories" as developed in http://arxiv.org/abs/math.CT/0408177 to define a cohomology theory that inherits the important properties of…
We survey recent results about the Torelli question for holomorphic-symplectic varieties. Following are the main topics. A Hodge theoretic Torelli theorem. A study of the subgroup W, of the isometry group of the weight 2 Hodge structure,…
Let K be a finite extension of Q_p and X a smooth projective variety over K. We define the notion of totally degenerate reduction of such an X and the associated Chow complexes of the special fibre of a suitable regular proper model of X…
