Supersymmetric gauge theories in four dimensions can display interesting non-perturbative phenomena. Although the superpotential dynamically generated by these phenomena can be highly nontrivial, it can often be exactly determined. We…

By using the gluing formulae of the Seiberg-Witten invariant, we show the nonexistence of Einstein metric on manifolds obtained from a 4-manifold with nontrivial Seiberg-Witten invariant by performing sufficiently many connected sums or…

We continue our study of 'no-dimension' analogues of basic theorems in combinatorial and convex geometry in Banach spaces. We generalize some results of the paper \cite{adiprasito2019theorems} and prove no-dimension versions of colorful…

We prove rigidity and gap theorems for self-dual and even Poincar\'e-Einstein metrics in dimension four. As a corollary, we give an obstruction to the existence of self-dual Poincar\'e-Einstein metrics in terms of conformal invariants of…

In this paper we prove a conjecture that $D(4)$-quintuple does not exist using both classical and new methods. Also, we give a new version of the Rickert's theorem that can be applied on some $D(4)$-quadruples.

We show that no orthogonal arrays $OA(16 \lambda, 11, 2,4)$ exist with $\lambda=6$ and $\lambda=7$. This solves an open problem of the NSUCRYPTO Olympiad 2018. Our result allows us to determine the minimum weights of certain higher-order…

We prove a duality, recently conjectured in arXiv:1103.5726, which relates the F-terms of supersymmetric gauge theories defined in two and four dimensions respectively. The proof proceeds by a saddle point analysis of the four-dimensional…

The projective variety of Lie algebra structures on a 4-dimensional vector space has four irreducible components of dimension 11. We compute their prime ideals in the polynomial ring in 24 variables. By listing their degrees and Hilbert…

We show that there are no arithmetic fake compact hermitian symmetric spaces of type other than An for n>4.

For every integer g greater than or equal to 2, there exist infinitely many pairwise nonhomeomorphic smooth 4-manifolds that admit genus-g Lefschetz fibrations over S^2 but do not carry any complex structure with either orientation. This…

We begin by proving a few general facts about Simson polygons, defined as polygons which admit a pedal line. We use an inductive argument to show that no convex $n$-gon, $n\geq5$, admits a Simson Line. We then determine a property which…

We prove a conjecture of Petrunin and Tuschmann on the non-existence of asymptotically flat 4-manifolds asymptotic to the half plane. We also survey recent progress and questions concerning gravitational instantons, which serve as our…

We prove that for any $k\in \mathbb{R},$ $v>0,$ and $D>0$ there are only finitely many diffeomorphism types of closed Riemannian $4$-manifolds with sectional curvature $\geq k,$ volume $\geq v,$ and diameter $\leq D.$

Youngs proved that every non-bipartite quadrangulation of the projective plane $\mathbb{R}\mathrm{P}^2$ is 4-chromatic. Kaiser and Stehl\'{\i}k [J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 113 (2015), 1-17] generalised the notion of a quadrangulation to…

We prove a theorem on the relationships between the lengths of sides of a spherical quadrilateral with three right angles. They are analogous to the relationships in the Lambert quadrilateral in the hyperbolic plane. We apply this theorem…

We derive the continuous nilpotent symmetries of the four (3 + 1)-dimensional (4D) model of the Hodge theory (i.e. 4D Abelian 2-form gauge theory) by exploiting the beauty and strength of the symmetry invariant restrictions on the…

A simpler proof of the four color theorem is presented. The proof was reached using a series of equivalent theorems. First the maximum number of edges of a planar graph is obatined as well as the minimum number of edges for a complete…

P. Buser and P. Sarnak showed in 1994 that the maximum, over the moduli space of Riemann surfaces of genus s, of the least conformal length of a nonseparating loop, is logarithmic in s. We present an application of (polynomially) dense…

In this paper, we resolve two conjectures of De Loera, Santos, and Takeuchi in the affirmative, computing the maximal size of any regular triangulation of the $n$-prism and $n$-antiprism.

We observe inequalities involving the Herzlich volume of a 4-dimensional asymptotically complex hyperbolic Einstein manifold and its Euler characteristic provided the metrics is either Kaehler or selfdual. In the selfdual case we have to…
