We prove a general extrinsic rigidity theorem for homogeneous varieties in $\mathbb{CP}^N$. The theorem is used to show that the adjoint variety of a complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ (the unique minimal G orbit in…
We prove rigidity of various types of holomorphic parabolic geometry on smooth complex projective varieties.
We prove that certain Fuchsian triangle groups are profinitely rigid in the absolute sense, i.e. each is distinguished from all other finitely generated, residually finite groups by its set of finite quotients. We also develop a method…
This note investigate some finiteness properties of the category U of unstable modules. One shows finiteness properties for the injective resolution of finitely generated unstable modules. One also shows a stabilization result under…
We introduce a "limiting Frobenius structure" attached to any degeneration of projective varieties over a finite field of characteristic p which satisfies a p-adic lifting assumption. Our limiting Frobenius structure is shown to be…
We present a brief survey of fluctuations and large deviations of particle systems with subextensive growth of the variance. These are called hyperuniform (or superhomogeneous) systems. We then discuss the relation between hyperuniformity…
In some varieties of algebras one can reduce the question of finding most general unifiers (mgus) to the problem of the existence of unifiers that fulfill the additional condition called projectivity. In this paper we study this problem for…
A rigidity theory is developed for bar-joint frameworks in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ whose vertices are constrained to lie on concentric $d$-spheres with independently variable radii. In particular, combinatorial characterisations are established…
We overview some recent results on Fano varieties giving evidence of their rigid nature under small deformations.
For every finite collection C of abelian varieties over F_q, we produce an explicit upper bound on the genus of curves over F_q whose Jacobians are isogenous to a product of powers of elements of C.
We develop a new cohomology theory in characteristic p>0, the so called F-gauge cohomology, a cohomology with values in the category of so-called F-gauges, which refines the cristalline cohomology. In this first paper we mainly discuss the…
We investigate the injectivity of the Frobenius map on thickenings of smooth varieties in projective space over a field of positive characteristic. We obtain uniform bounds -- i.e., independent of the characteristic -- on the thickening…
In this paper we use a homological approach to obtain upper bounds for a few homological invariants of $FI_G$-modules $V$. These upper bounds are expressed in terms of the generating degree and torsion degree, which measure the top and…
We discuss some finite homogeneous structures, addressing the question of universality of their automorphism groups. We also study the existence of so-called Kat\v{e}tov functors in finite categories of embeddings or homomorphisms.
We establish character rigidity for all non-uniform higher-rank irreducible lattices in semisimple groups of characteristic other than 2. This implies stabilizer rigidity for probability measure preserving actions and rigidity of invariant…
The aim of this note is to settle some foundational questions about the behavior of birational rigidity in extensions of algebraically closed fields.
This paper is a survey of the subject of variations of Hodge structure (VHS) considered as exterior differential systems (EDS). We review developments over the last twenty-six years, with an emphasis on some key examples. In the penultimate…
We present a general and comprehensive overview of recent developments in the theory of integral models of Shimura varieties of Hodge type. The paper covers the following topics: construction of integral models, their possible moduli…
We study geometric rigidity of a class of fractals, which is slightly larger than the collection of self-conformal sets. Namely, using a new method, we shall prove that a set of this class is contained in a smooth submanifold or is totally…
We give a criterion of factoriality of a suspension. This allows to construct many examples of flexible affine factorial varieties. In particular, we find a homogeneous affine factorial 3-fold that is not a homogeneous space of an algebraic…
