For a branched cover between two closed orientable surfaces, the Riemann-Hurwitz formula relates the Euler characteristics of the surfaces, the total degree of the cover, and the total length of the partitions of the degree given by the…
The aim of this paper is to give an upper bound for the intrinsic diameter of a surface with boundary immersed in a conformally flat three dimensional Riemannian manifold in terms of the integral of the mean curvature and of the length of…
This paper gives sharp linear bounds on the genus of a normal surface in a triangulated compact, orientable 3--manifold in terms of the quadrilaterals in its cell decomposition---different bounds arise from varying hypotheses on the surface…
For a fixed $d \ge 5$, the Noether-Lefschetz locus parametrizes smooth degree $d$ surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^3$ with Picard number greater than $1$. This is a countable union of proper algebraic varieties. It is known (due to works of Voisin,…
We investigate the complexity of finding an embedded non-orientable surface of Euler genus $g$ in a triangulated $3$-manifold. This problem occurs both as a natural question in low-dimensional topology, and as a first non-trivial instance…
In this article we consider Riemann surfaces and abelian varieties endowed with a group of automorphisms isomorphic to a generalized quaternion group. We provide isogeny decompositions of each abelian variety with this action, compute…
We consider on Riemannian manifolds the Leibenson equation $\partial _{t}u=\Delta _{p}u^{q}$ that is also known as a doubly nonlinear evolution equation. We prove sharp upper estimates of weak subsolutions to this equation on Riemannian…
Let $A$ be a finite set of relatively prime positive integers, and let $S(A)$ be the set of all nonnegative integral linear combinations of elements of $A$. The set $S(A)$ is a semigroup that contains all sufficiently large integers. The…
We consider $(1,1)$-surfaces, namely, minimal compact complex surfaces $S$ with $p_g (S) =K_S^2=1$: for these the bicanonical map is a covering of degree $4$ of the plane $\mathbb{P}^2$. And we answer a question posed by Meng Chen, whether…
Generalising an example by Girondo and Wolfart, we use finite group theory to construct Riemann surfaces admitting two or more regular dessins (i.e. orientably regular hypermaps) with automorphism groups of the same order, and in many cases…
We consider rational double point singularities (RDPs) that are non-taut, which means that the isomorphism class is not uniquely determined from the dual graph of the minimal resolution. Such RDPs exist in characteristic $2,3,5$. We compute…
We study the Diophantine problem (decidability of finite systems of equations) in different classes of finitely generated solvable groups (nilpotent, polycyclic, metabelian, free solvable, etc), which satisfy some natural…
In this paper we prove new explicit formulas for Faltings' $\delta$-invariant of an arbitrary hyperelliptic Riemann surface. This has several applications: For example we obtain an explicit lower bound for $\delta$ depending only on the…
Recently de Thanhoffer de V\"olcsey and Van den Bergh classified the Euler forms on a free abelian group of rank 4 having the properties of the Euler form of a smooth projective surface. There are two types of solutions: one corresponding…
This note is about the geometry of the pants graph P(S), a natural simplicial graph associated to a finite type topological surface S where vertices represents pants decompositions. The main result in this note ascserts that for a…
In this paper, we consider the so-called "Furstenberg set problem" in high dimensions. First, following Wolff's work on the two dimensional real case, we provide "reasonable" upper bounds for the problem for $\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{F}_p$.…
We study the orchard problem on cubic surfaces. We classify possibly reducible cubic surfaces $X\subseteq \mathbb{P}^3(\C)$ with smooth components on which there exist families of finite sets (of unbounded size) with quadratically many…
We consider on Riemannian manifolds the nonlinear evolution equation \begin{equation*} \partial _{t}u=\Delta _{p}(u^{1/(p-1)}), \end{equation*}% where $p>1$. This equation is also known as a doubly non-linear parabolic equation or…
In this paper we construct a class of infinite-dimensional Frobenius manifolds in the spaces of pairs of meromorphic functions defined on certain regions of the Riemann sphere. For such Frobenius manifolds, we obtain their principal…
