Let $\varphi$ be a rational map $\mathbb{P}^2 \dashrightarrow\mathbb{P}^2$ that preserves the rational volume form $\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{x}\wedge\frac{\mathrm{d}y}{y}$. Sergey Galkin conjectured that in this case $\varphi$ is necessarily…

Suppose that $f \colon X \dashrightarrow X$ is a dominant rational self-map of a smooth projective variety defined over ${\overline{\mathbf Q}}$. Kawaguchi and Silverman conjectured that if $P \in X({\overline{\mathbf Q}})$ is a point with…

Many extensions of the Standard Model postulate the existence of new weakly coupled particles, the top partners, at or below the TeV scale. The role of the top partners is to cancel the quadratic divergence in the Higgs mass parameter due…

For a map $\varphi : \varGamma \rightarrow \varGamma^{\prime}$ between metric graphs and an isometric action on $\varGamma$ by finite group $K$, $\varphi$ is a $K$-Galois covering on $\varGamma^{\prime}$ if $\varphi$ is a morphism, the…

We provide a natural canonical decomposition of postcritically finite rational maps with non-empty Fatou sets based on the topological structure of their Julia sets. The building blocks of this decomposition are maps where all Fatou…

We construct explicit examples of Dirac-harmonic maps $(\phi, \psi)$ between Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ and $(N,g')$ which are non-trivial in the sense that $\phi$ is not harmonic. When $\dim M=2$, we also produce examples where $\phi$ is…

It has been shown that the traditional matching of wavefunctions between regions of different effective mass (matching {\psi} and (1/m*)\partial{\psi}/\partialx) is not correct, but that one should match (1/\surdm*){\psi} and…

We give uniform upper bounds for the number of rational points of height at most $B$ on non-singular complete intersections of two quadrics in $\mathbb{P}^3$ defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. To do this, we combine determinant methods with descent…

Let $K$ denote either $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. In this article, we introduce two new equivariants associated to a rational map $f\in K(z)$. These objects naturally live on a real hyperbolic space, and carry information about the action…

Consider two paths $\phi,\psi:[0;1]\to [0;1]^2$ in the unit square such that $\phi(0)=(0,0)$, $\phi(1)=(1,1)$, $\psi(0)=(0,1)$ and $\psi(1)=(1,0)$. By continuity of $\phi$ and $\psi$ there is a point of intersection. We prove that from…

We introduce two new algebraic invariants, the (co)homological distances between continuous maps, which provide computable lower bounds for the homotopic distance and strictly refine the classical cup-length estimates. We then define the…

We study the topological invariant $\phi$ of Kwieci\'nski and Tworzewski, particularly beyond the case of mappings with smooth targets. We derive a lower bound for $\phi$ of a general mapping, which is similarly effective as the upper bound…

Let $\varphi$ be a univalent non-elliptic self-map of the unit disc $\mathbb D$ and let $(\psi_{t})$ be a continuous one-parameter semigroup of holomorphic functions in $\mathbb D$ such that $\psi_{1}\neq\mathrm{id}_{\mathbb D}$ commutes…

We prove that any minimal (maximal) strongly regular surface in the three-dimensional Minkowski space locally admits canonical principal parameters. Using this result, we find a canonical representation of minimal strongly regular time-like…

We study metrics on two-dimensional simplicial complexes that are conformal either to flat Euclidean metrics or to the ideal hyperbolic metrics described by Charitos and Papadopoulos. Extending the results of our previous paper, we prove…

A geometric realization of a birational map $\psi$ among two complex projective varieties is a variety $X$ endowed with a $\mathbb{C}^*$-action inducing $\psi$ as the natural birational map among two extremal geometric quotients. In this…

Let $\psi $ be a conformal map of $\mathbb{D}$ onto an unbounded domain and, for $\alpha >0$, let ${F_\alpha }=\left\{ {z \in \mathbb{D}:\left| {\psi \left( z \right)} \right| = \alpha } \right\}$. If $\omega _\mathbb{D}\left( {0,{F_\alpha…

Let $f \colon X \dashrightarrow X$ be a dominant rational self-map of a smooth projective variety defined over $\overline{\mathbb Q}$. For each point $P\in X(\overline{\mathbb Q})$ whose forward $f$-orbit is well-defined, Silverman…

We extend the notions of higher Du Bois and higher rational singularities to pairs in the sense of the minimal model program. We extend numerous results to these higher pairs, including Bertini type theorems, stability under finite maps and…
