We investigate in this paper the existence of a metric which maximizes the first eigenvalue of the Laplacian on Riemannian surfaces. We first prove that, in a given conformal class, there always exists such a maximizing metric which is…

Motivated by their research on automorphism groups of pseudo-real Riemann surfaces, Bujalance, Cirre and Conder have conjectured that there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that $p+2$ has all its prime factors $q\equiv -1$ mod~$(4)$. We…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d \geq 2$ with infinite residue field and let $I$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal. For $0 \leq i \leq d$ let $I_i$ be the $i^{th}$-coefficient ideal of $I$. Also let…

Let Hilb^p be the Hilbert scheme parametrizing the closed subschemes of P^n with Hilbert polynomial p\in Q[t] over a field K of characteristic zero. By bounding below the cohomological Hilbert functions of the points of Hilb^p we define…

Let $(R,\mathfrak m)$ be an analytically unramified local ring of positive prime characteristic $p.$ For an ideal $I$, let $I^*$ denote its tight closure. We introduce the tight Hilbert function $H^*_I(n)=\ell(R/(I^n)^*)$ and the…

We rereview the classical Cauchy-Kovalevskaya theorem and the related uniqueness theorem of Holmgren, in the simple setting of powers of the Laplacian and a smooth curve segment in the plane. As a local problem, the Cauchy-Kovalevskaya and…

We prove a compactness theorem for metrics with Bounded Integral Curvature on a fixed closed surface $\Sigma$. As a corollary, we obtain a compactification of the space of Riemannian metrics with conical singularities, where an accumulation…

The Hilbert functions and the regularity of the graded components of local cohomology of a bigraded algebra are considered. Explicit bounds for these invariants are obtained for bigraded hypersurface rings.

We extend the notion of regularized integrals introduced by Li-Zhou that aims to assign finite values to divergent integrals on configuration spaces of Riemann surfaces. We then give cohomological formulations for the extended notion using…

We study Hilbert functions of maximal Cohen-Macaulay(=CM) modules over CM local rings. We show that if $A$ is a hypersurface ring with dimension $d > 0$ then the Hilbert function of $M$ \wrt $\m$ is non-decreasing. If $A = Q/(f)$ for some…

In this paper, two sequences of minimal isoparametric hypersurfaces are constructed via representations of Clifford algebras. Based on these, we give estimates on eigenvalues of the Laplacian of the focal submanifolds of isoparametric…

We analyse the geometry of Hilbert schemes of points on abelian surfaces and Beauville's generalized Kummer varieties in positive characteristics. The main result is that, in characteristic two, the addition map from the Hilbert scheme of…

For a Noetherian local ring $(\RR, \m)$, the first two Hilbert coefficients, $e_0$ and $e_1$, of the $I$-adic filtration of an $\m$-primary ideal $I$ are known to code for properties of $\RR$, of the blowup of $\spec(\RR)$ along $V(I)$, and…

In this paper, we investigate the Dirichlet problem of Laplacian on complete Riemannian manifolds. By constructing new trial functions, we obtain a sharp upper bound of the gap of the consecutive eigenvalues in the sense of the order, which…

The aim of this manuscript is to discuss the Hilbert-Kunz functions over an excellent local ring regular in codimension one. We study the shape of the Hilbert-Kunz functions of modules and discuss the properties of the coefficient of the…

New upper bounds on the first and the second Hilbert coefficients of a Cohen-Macaulay module over a local ring are given. Characterizations are provided for some upper bounds to be attained. The characterizations are given in terms of…

We classify all closed, aspherical Riemannian manifolds M whose universal cover has indiscrete isometry group. One sample application is the theorem that any such M with word-hyperbolic fundamental group must be isometric to a negatively…

Take $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ any normal Noetherian domain, either local or $\mathbb{N}$-graded over a field. We study the question of when $R$ satisfies the uniform symbolic topology property (USTP) of Huneke, Katz, and Validashti: namely, that…

We study eigenvalue problems for the de Rham complex on varying three dimensional domains. Our analysis includes the Helmholtz equation as well as the Maxwell system with mixed boundary conditions and non-constant coefficients. We provide…
