Consider a charged, perfect quantum gas, in the effective mass approximation, and in the grand-canonical ensemble. We prove in this paper that the generalized magnetic susceptibilities admit the thermodynamic limit for all admissible…

We prove a universal projection theorem, giving conditions on a parametrized family of maps $\Pi_\lambda : X \to \mathbb{R}^d$ and a collection M of measures on X under which for almost every $\lambda$ equality $\dim_H \Pi_\lambda \mu =…

A 6-dimensional grand unified theory with the compact space having the topology of a real projective plane, i.e., a 2-sphere with opposite points identified, is considered. The space is locally flat except for two conical singularities…

In this paper we provide several \emph{metric universality} results. We exhibit for certain classes $\cC$ of metric spaces, families of metric spaces $(M_i, d_i)_{i\in I}$ which have the property that a metric space $(X,d_X)$ in $\cC$ is…

We study compactifications on ${\rm AdS}_3\times S^3$ and deformations thereof. We exploit the triality symmetry of the underlying duality group ${\rm SO}(4,4)$ of three-dimensional supergravity in order to construct and relate new…

In math.AG/0108089 we gave sufficient conditions for the irreducibility of the family V of irreducible curves in the linear system |D| with precisely r singular points of topological respectively analytical types S1,...,Sr on several…

Consider a plane graph G, drawn with straight lines. For every pair a,b of vertices of G, we compare the shortest-path distance between a and b in G (with Euclidean edge lengths) to their actual distance in the plane. The worst-case ratio…

The article is devoted to the study of mappings with finite distortion in metric spaces. Analogues of results relating to equicontinuity and normality of families of quasiregular mappings are obtained. It is proved that the indicated…

We fully develop the concept of causal symmetry introduced in Class. Quant. Grav. 20 (2003) L139. A causal symmetry is a transformation of a Lorentzian manifold (V,g) which maps every future-directed vector onto a future-directed vector. We…

In this revised form, the proof of the principal lemma has been simplified and the main theorem has been extended to all characteristics for those varieties which are smooth in codimension one. This principal theorem essentially says the…

A subspace of the space, L(n), of traceless complex $n\times n$ matrices can be specified by requiring that the entries at some positions $(i,j)$ be zero. The set, $I$, of these positions is a (zero) pattern and the corresponding subspace…

Consider a continuous surjective self map of the open annulus with degree d > 1. It is proved that the number of Nielsen classes of periodic points is maximum possible whenever f has a completely invariant essential continuum. The same…

For fixed large genus, we construct families of complete immersed minimal surfaces in R3 with four ends and dihedral symmetries. The families exist for all large genus and at an appropriate scale degenerate to the plane.

In the first part of this paper we prove a vanishing criterion for higher direct images of projective families of line bundles on a Cohen-Macaulay variety X. The result involves certain first-order deformations of certain curves on X, and…

This paper establishes a universality result for scaling limits of uniformly random lozenge tilings of large domains. We prove that whenever a boundary of the domain has three adjacent straight segments inclined under 120 degrees to each…

Let G be a finite subgroup of GL_n(C). A study is made of the ways in which resolutions of the quotient space C^n / G can parametrise G-constellations, that is, G-regular finite length sheaves. These generalise G-clusters, which are used in…

Let $A$ be any plane set. It is known that a holomorphic motion $h: A \times \mathbb{D} \to \mathbb{C}$ always extends to a holomorphic motion of the entire plane. It was recently shown that any isotopy $h: X \times [0,1] \to \mathbb{C}$,…

We show that the number of deformation types of canonically polarized manifolds over an arbitrary variety with proper singular locus is finite, and that this number is uniformly bounded in any finite type family of base varieties. As a…
