Shokurov's ACC Conjecture says that the set of all log canonical thresholds on varieties of bounded dimension satisfies the Ascending Chain Condition. This conjecture was proved for log canonical thresholds on smooth varieties in [EM1].…
We will prove that, for a $2$ or $3$ component $L$-space link, $HFL^-$ is completely determined by the multi-variable Alexander polynomial of all the sub-links of $L$, as well as the pairwise linking numbers of all the components of $L$. We…
We consider the union of certain irreducible components of cohomological support loci of the canonical bundle, which we call standard. We prove a structure theorem about them and single out some particular cases, recovering and improving…
We study the combinatorics of fully commutative elements in Coxeter groups of type $H_n$ for any $n > 2$. Using the results, we construct certain canonical bases (i.e., IC bases) for non-simply-laced generalized Temperley--Lieb algebras and…
We give a characterization of alternating link exteriors in terms of cubed complexes. To this end, we introduce the concept of a "signed BW cubed-complex", and give a characterization for a signed BW cubed-complex to have the underlying…
We present a systematic canonical quantization procedure for lumped-element superconducting networks by making use of a redundant configuration-space description. The algorithm is based on an original, explicit, and constructive…
This is the second of a series of papers which are devoted to a comprehensive theory of maps between orbifolds. In this paper, we develop a basic machinery for studying homotopy classes of such maps. It contains two parts: (1) the…
In this paper we show that there exists a family of simply connected, symplectic 4-manifolds such that the (Poincare dual of the) canonical class admits both connected and disconnected symplectic representatives. This answers a question…
We introduce a notion of cardinality for the augmentation category associated to a Legendrian knot or link in standard contact R^3. This `homotopy cardinality' is an invariant of the category and allows for a weighted count of…
Semi-log canonical varieties are a higher-dimensional analogue of stable curves. They are the varieties appearing as the boundary $\Delta$ of a log canonical pair $(X,\Delta)$, and also appear as limits of canonically polarized varieties in…
A two-component link produces a torus as the product of the component knots in a two-point configuration space of a three-sphere. This space can be identified with a cotangent bundle and also with an indefinite Grassmannian. We show that…
In this note we reproduce Johnson's analysis of $W_2$-topologies on fields of characteristic 2, which was originally stated for fields of characteristic different than 2. Following his framework, we prove that the canonical topology of an…
Spaces of homogeneous spherical monogenics in dimension 3 can be considered naturally as sl(2,C)-modules. As finite-dimensional irreducible sl(2,C)-modules, they have canonical bases which are, by construction, orthogonal. In this note, we…
We introduce in this paper a hypercohomology version of the resonance varieties and obtain some relations to the characteristic varieties of rank one local systems on a smooth quasi-projective complex variety $M$, see Theorem (3.1) and…
We construct infinitely many Legendrian links in the standard contact $\mathbb{R}^3$ with arbitrarily many topologically distinct Lagrangian fillings. The construction is used to find links in $S^3$ that bound topologically distinct pieces…
We extend the classical length function to an ordinal-valued invariant on the class of all finite-dimensional Noetherian modules. We show how to calculate this combinatorial invariant by means of the fundamental cycle of the module, thus…
We formulate the geometric P=W conjecture for singular character varieties. We establish it for compact Riemann surfaces of genus one, and obtain partial results in arbitrary genus. To this end, we employ non-Archimedean, birational and…
Canonical functions are a powerful concept with numerous applications in the study of groups, monoids, and clones on countable structures with Ramsey-type properties. In this short note, we present a proof of the existence of canonical…
For a prime knot $K$, we give sufficient conditions for the existence of a component $\mathcal{C}$ of the irreducible ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$-character variety of $K$ with $\dim\mathcal{C}>1$, and give a lower bound for $\dim\mathcal{C}$.…
We define and study the canonical complex of a finite semidistributive lattice $L$. It is the simplicial complex on the join or meet irreducible elements of $L$ which encodes each interval of $L$ by recording the canonical join…
