Let $X$ be a differentiable manifold endowed with a transitive action $\alpha:A\times X\longrightarrow X$ of a Lie group $A$. Let $K$ be a Lie group. Under suitable technical assumptions, we give explicit classification theorems, in terms…

We compute the small cohomology ring of the Cayley Grassmannian, that parametrizes four-dimensional subalgebras of the complexified octonions. We show that all the Gromov-Witten invariants in the multiplication table of the Schubert classes…

We introduce abstract net spaces on directed sets and prove their embedding and interpolation properties. Typical examples of interest are lattices of irreducible unitary representations of compact Lie groups and of class I representations…

We study when a smooth variety $X$, embedded diagonally in its Cartesian square, is the zero scheme of a section of a vector bundle of rank $\dim(X)$ on $X\times X$. We call this the diagonal property (D). It was known that it holds for all…

In this paper, we establish a real closed analogue of Bertini's theorem. Let $R$ be a real closed field and $X$ a formally real integral algebraic variety over $R$. We show that if the zero locus of a nonzero global section $s$ of an…

Starting from a real standard subspace of a Hilbert space and a representation of the translation group with natural properties, we construct and analyze for each endomorphism of this pair a local, translationally covariant net of standard…

We show that regular semisimple Hessenberg varieties can have moduli. To be precise, suppose $X$ is a regular semisimple Hessenberg variety of codimension $1$ in the flag variety $G/B$, where $G$ is a simple algebraic group of rank $r$ over…

We introduce a novel approach to Bertini irreducibility theorems over an arbitrary field, based on random hyperplane slicing over a finite field. Extending a result of Benoist, we prove that for a morphism $\phi \colon X \to \mathbb{P}^n$…

We prove the Mirkovi\'c-Vilonen conjecture: the integral local intersection cohomology groups of spherical Schubert varieties on the affine Grassmannian have no p-torsion, as long as p is outside a certain small and explicitly given set of…

We provide a method for gluing (small) resolutions of singularities of Schubert varieties \(X_w\). An explicit isomorphism of \(X_w\) with an (iterated) bundle is constructed when \(w\) has an (iterated) BP decomposition. Combined with the…

First three sections of this overview paper cover classical topics of deformation theory of associative algebras and necessary background material. We then analyze algebraic structures of the Hochschild cohomology and describe the relation…

Let $G$ and $H$ be finite-dimensional vector spaces over $\mathbb{F}_p$. A subset $A \subseteq G \times H$ is said to be transverse if all of its rows $\{x \in G \colon (x,y) \in A\}$, $y \in H$, are subspaces of $G$ and all of its columns…

We give an elementary proof of a compact embedding theorem in abstract Sobolev spaces. The result is first presented in a general context and later specialized to the case of degenerate Sobolev spaces defined with respect to nonnegative…

We classify all Q-factorializations of (co)minuscule Schubert varieties by using their Mori dream space structure. As a corollary we obtain a description of all IH-small resolutions of (co)minuscule Schubert varieties generalizing results…

We develop a general theory for irreducible homogeneous spaces $M= G/H$, in relation to the nullity $\nu$ of their curvature tensor. We construct natural invariant (different and increasing) distributions associated with the nullity, that…

We show that the iterated images of a Jacobian pair stabilize; that is, the k-th iterates of a polynomial map of complex two-space to itself with a nonzero constant Jacobian determinant all have the same image for sufficiently large k. More…

We obtain a precise relation between the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a subvariety of projective space and the Euler characteristics of its general linear sections. In the case of a hypersurface, this leads to simple proofs of…

This is a continuation of a project on large deviations for the empirical measures of zeros of random holomorphic sections of random line bundles over a Riemann surface X. In a previous article with O. Zeitouni (arXiv:0904.4271), we proved…

We show the following algebraicity result for a complex projective variety $X$ with big representation of $\pi_1$ into a semi-simple algebraic group: There exists a proper subvariety $Z \subset X$ such that for any algebraic curve $C$, any…

We generalize the First Reconstruction Theorem of Kontsevich and Manin in two respects. First, we allow the target space to be a Deligne-Mumford stack. Second, under some convergence assumptions, we show it suffices to check the hypothesis…
