A "folklore conjecture, probably due to Tutte" (as described in [P.D. Seymour, Sums of circuits, Graph theory and related topics (Proc. Conf., Univ. Waterloo, 1977), pp. 341-355, Academic Press, 1979]) asserts that every bridgeless cubic…

It is proved that if $S\subset \mathbb P^N$ is a smooth projective surface and $f:S\to \mathbb P^2$ is a generic linear projection branched over a cuspidal curve $B\subset \mathbb P^2$, then the surface $S$ is determined uniquely up to an…

If a mapping of several complex variables into projective space is holomorphic in each pair of variables, then it is globally holomorphic.

In this paper, we show that general homogeneous manifolds $G/P$ satisfy Conjecture $\mathcal{O}$ of Galkin, Golyshev and Iritani which `underlies' Gamma conjectures I and II of them. Our main tools are the quantum Chevalley formula for…

Let $J(m)$ be an $m\times m$ Jordan block with eigenvalue $1$. For $\lambda\in \mathbb{C}\setminus\{0,1\}$, we explicitly construct all rank $2$ local systems of geometric origin on $\mathbb{P}^1\setminus\{0,1,\lambda, \infty\}$, with local…

We prove the Bers' density conjecture for singly degenerate Kleinian surfaces groups without parabolics.

The complex projective structures considered is this article are compact curves locally modeled on $\mathbb{CP}^1$. To such a geometric object, modulo marked isomorphism, the monodromy map associates an algebraic one: a representation of…

It is shown using a space-time curvature classification and decomposition that for certain holonomy types of a space-time, proper projective vector fields cannot exist. Existence is confirmed, by example, for the remaining holonomy types.…

The space ML(F) of measured geodesic laminations on a given closed hyperbolic surface F has a canonical linear structure arising in fact from different sources in 2-dimensional hyperbolic (earthquake theory) or complex projective (grafting)…

In this paper we discuss the sufficient and necessary conditions for multiple Alexandrov spaces being glued to an Alexandrov space. We propose a Gluing Conjecture, which says that the finite gluing of Alexandrov spaces is an Alexandrov…

Let $S$ be a closed orientable surface of genus at least two. We introduce a bordification of the moduli space $\mathcal{PT}(S)$ of complex projective structures, with a boundary consisting of projective classes of half-translation…

The Conifold Gap Conjecture asserts that the polar part of the Gromov-Witten potential of a Calabi-Yau threefold near its conifold locus has a universal expression described by the logarithm of the Barnes $G$-function. In this paper, I…

In this paper we prove Conjecture 1.2 in \cite{B-F}. This enables us to establish the meromorphic continuation of the standard partial $L$ function $L^S(s,\pi^{(n)})$. Here, $\pi^{(n)}$ is a genuine irreducible cuspidal representation of…

We prove the Gromov conjecture on the macroscopic dimension of the universal covering of a closed spin manifold with a positive scalar curvature under the following assumptions on the fundamental group: 1. The Strong Novikov Conjecture…

We extend classical notions of definable colourability of graphs to the general projective setting and investigate whether known results, mainly about the $G_0$ dichotomy and the $2n + 1$ conjecture, hold in the context of higher projective…

Let $S$ be a punctured surface of finite type and negative Euler characteristic. We determine all possible representations $\rho:\pi_1(S) \to \text{PSL}_2(\mathbb{C})$ that arise as the monodromy of the Schwarzian equation on $S$ with…

We will prove that given a genus-2 fibration $f: X \rightarrow C$ on a smooth projective surface $X$ such that $b_1(X)=b_1(C)+2$, the fundamental group of $X$ is almost isomorphic to $\pi_1(C) \times \pi_1(E)$, where $E$ is an elliptic…

We characterize the monodromies of projective structures with fuchsian-type singularities. Namely, any representation from the fundamental group of a Riemann surface of finite-type in $PSL_2(\mathbb{C})$ can be represented as the holonomy…

We prove the Lipman-Zariski conjecture for complex surface singularities with $p_g - g - b \le 2$. Here $p_g$ is the geometric genus, $g$ is the sum of the genera of the exceptional curves and $b$ is the first Betti number of the dual…

We prove two results on geometric consequences of the representation of restricted holonomy group of a Hermitian connection. The first result concerns when such a Hermitian manifold is K\"ahler in terms of the torsion and the irreducibility…
