A Q-homology plane is a normal complex algebraic surface having trivial rational homology. We classify singular Q-homology planes which are C^1- or C*-ruled. We analyze their completions, the number of different rulings, the number of…
We use real algebraic geometry to construct an affine $\Lambda$-building $B$ associated to the $\mathbb{F}$-points of a semisimple algebraic group, where $\mathbb{F}$ is a valued real closed field. We characterize the spherical building at…
Let X be a smooth, complete, connected submanifold of dimension n < N in a complex affine space A^N (C), and r is the rank of its Gauss map \gamma, \gamma (x) = T_x (X). The authors prove that if 2 \leq r \leq n - 1, N - n \geq 2, and in…
We endow the set of complements of a fixed subspace of a projective space with the structure of an affine space, and show that certain lines of such an affine space are affine reguli or cones over affine reguli. Moreover, we apply our…
We classify smooth surfaces whose higher cohomologies of i-forms for all i vanish. We show that if such a surface is not affine, then it has essentially two possibilities.
We describe the set of possible vector valued side lengths of n-gons in thick Euclidean buildings of rank 2. This set is determined by a finite set of homogeneous linear inequalities, which we call the generalized triangle inequalities.…
In 2021, Dzhunusov and Zaitseva classified two-dimensional normal affine commutative algebraic monoids. In this work, we extend this classification to noncommutative monoid structures on normal affine surfaces. We prove that two-dimensional…
We answer a question of Serre from the 1980s on rational points of bounded height on projective thin sets, in degree at least $4$. For degrees $2$ and $3$ we improve the known bounds in general. The focus is on thin sets of type II, namely…
For later use in subsequent upcoming arxiv.org prepublications, basic foundational material on local, smooth or real analytic, CR-generic submanifolds of complex Euclidean spaces is developed from scratch, with strong emphasis on the…
Consider a finite collection of affine hyperplanes in $\mathbb R^d$. The hyperplanes dissect $\mathbb R^d$ into finitely many polyhedral chambers. For a point $x\in \mathbb R^d$ and a chamber $P$ the metric projection of $x$ onto $P$ is the…
The complete affine structures on abelian Lie algebras in small dimensions are well known. In this paper we are interested by the non complete case. In particular we classify all these structures in dimensions 2 and 3.
Let $\A$ be a finite dimensional vector space and $\Phi$ be a finite root system in $\A$. To this data is associated an affine poly-simplicial complex. Motivated by a forthcoming construction of connectified higher buildings, we study…
We define a notion of morphism for generalized affine buildings, also known as affine $\Lambda$-buildings, extending existing definitions and giving rise to a category of generalized affine buildings. For affine $\Lambda$-buildings equipped…
We classify thick irreducible 3-spherical twin buildings of rank at least 3 in which every panel contains at least 6 chambers. Together with the Main result of [11] we obtain a classification of thick irreducible 3-spherical twin buildings.
We give manifestly positive Andrews-Gordon type series for the level 3 standard modules of the affine Lie algebra of type $A^{(1)}_2$. We also give corresponding bipartition identities, which have representation theoretic interpretations…
We prove a prime geodesic theorem for compact quotients of affine buildings and apply it to get class number asymptotics for global fields of positive characteristic.
We prove an analog of the base change functor of \Lambda-trees in the setting of generalized affine buildings. The proof is mainly based on local and global combinatorics of the associated spherical buildings. As an application we obtain…
We continue the work of [1, 2, 3] by analyzing the equivalence relation of bi-embeddability on various classes of countable planes, most notably the class of countable non-Desarguesian projective planes. We use constructions of the second…
Denote by $\mathfrak{o}$ the valuation ring of a non-Archimedean local field with prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ and finite residue field, and let $r\geq 1$ be an integer. We prove that for every smooth affine group scheme $G$ over…
The Nontrivial Projection Problem asks whether every finite-dimensional normed space of dimension greater than one admits a well-bounded projection of non-trivial rank and corank or, equivalently, whether every centrally symmetric convex…
