We prove that every place of an algebraic function field F|K of arbitrary characteristic admits local uniformization in a finite extension F' of F. We show that F'|F can be chosen to be normal. If K is perfect and P is of rank 1, then…

This note is concerned with quasi-perfect morphisms between Noetherian algebraic spaces. In particular, we study the local behavior of quasi-perfect proper morphisms. We show that quasi-perfectness of a proper morphism can be detected at…

In the present survey paper, we present several new classes of Hochster's spectral spaces "occurring in nature", actually in multiplicative ideal theory, and not linked to or realized in an explicit way by prime spectra of rings. The…

Basic properties of symplectic reflection algebras over an algebraically closed field k of positive characteristic are laid out. These algebras are always finite modules over their centres, in contrast to the situation in characteristic 0.…

Let $V$ be a valuation domain of rank one with quotient field $K$. We study the set of extensions of $V$ to the field of rational functions $K(X)$ induced by pseudo-convergent sequences of $K$ from a topological point of view, endowing this…

Let $V$ be a smooth, projective, rationally connected variety, defined over a number field $k$, and let $Z\subset V$ be a closed subset of codimension at least two. In this paper, for certain choices of $V$, we prove that the set of…

We prove that every place $P$ of an algebraic function field $F|K$ of arbitrary characteristic admits local uniformization, provided that the sum of the rational rank of its value group and the transcendence degree of its residue field $FP$…

Let G be a semi-simple algebraic group over a finitely generated field K of characteristic zero, and let \Gamma < G(K) be a finitely generated Zariski-dense subgroup. In this note we prove that the set of K-generic elements of \Gamma (whose…

Let M be a module over a commutative ring and let Spec(M) (resp. Max(M)) be the collection of all prime (resp. maximal) submodules of M. We topologize Spec(M) with Zariski topology, which is analogous to that for Spec(R), and consider…

Let $F$ be a field, and let Zar$(F)$ be the space of valuation rings of $F$ with respect to the Zariski topology. We prove that if $X$ is a quasicompact set of rank one valuation rings in Zar$(F)$ whose maximal ideals do not intersect to…

A henselian valued field $K$ is called a tame field if its algebraic closure $\tilde{K}$ is a tame extension, that is, the ramification field of the normal extension $\tilde{K}|K$ is algebraically closed. Every algebraically maximal…

Let $A$ be a simple algebra over a field $F$. Under a mild cardinality assumption on $F$, we determine the greatest possible dimension for an $F$-affine subspace of $A$ that is included in the group of units $A^\times$, and we describe the…

A family of fractal arrangements of circles is introduced for each imaginary quadratic field $K$. Collectively, these arrangements contain (up to an affine transformation) every set of circles in the extended complex plane with integral…

We prove several rigidity results on multiplier spectrum and length spectrum. For example, we show that for every non-exceptional rational map $f:\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})\to\mathbb{P}^1(\mathbb{C})$ of degree $d\geq2$, the…

The Zariski theorem says that for every hypersurface in a complex projective (resp. affine) space of dimension at least 3 and for every generic plane in the projective (resp. affine) space the natural embedding generates an isomorphism of…

Let $K$ be a number field, $\overline{\mathbb Q}$, or the field of rational functions on a smooth projective curve over a perfect field, and let $V$ be a subspace of $K^N$, $N \geq 2$. Let $Z_K$ be a union of varieties defined over $K$ such…

The polynomial method has been used recently to obtain many striking results in combinatorial geometry. In this paper, we use affine Hilbert functions to obtain an estimation theorem in finite field geometry. The most natural way to state…

We prove that for a dominant rational self-map $f$ on a quasi-projective variety defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, there is a point whose $f$-orbit is well-defined and its arithmetic degree is arbitrarily close to the first dynamical…

Let G be complex linear-algebraic group, H a subgroup, which is dense in G in the Zariski-topology. Assume that G/[G,G] is reductive and furthermore that (1) G is solvable, or (2) the semisimple elements in G'=[G,G] are dense. Then every…

Let f : X --> X be a dominant rational map of a projective variety defined over a number field. An important geometric-dynamical invariant of f is its (first) dynamical degree d_f= lim SpecRadius((f^n)^*)^{1/n}. For algebraic points P of X…
