The increasingly common applications of machine-learning schemes to atomic-scale simulations have triggered efforts to better understand the mathematical properties of the mapping between the Cartesian coordinates of the atoms and the…
A theorem by Mumford implies that every automorphic line bundle on a pure open Shimura variety, equipped with an invariant smooth metric, can be uniquely extended as a line bundle on a toroidal compactification of the variety, in such a way…
We study the structure of Jacobians of geometrically reduced curves over arbitrary (i. e., not necessarily perfect) fields. We show that, while such a group scheme cannot in general be decomposed into an affine and an Abelian part as over…
We generalize two classical formulas for complete intersection curves by introducing the the complete intersection discrepancy of a curve as a correction term. The first is a well-known multiplicity formula in singularity theory, due to…
The Jacobian algebra $\mathsf{A}$ arising from a consistent dimer model is derived equivalent to crepant resolutions of a $3$-dimensional Gorenstein toric singularity $R$, and it is also called a non-commutative crepant resolution of $R$.…
We give a geometric interpretation of the group law for Jacobian varieties by extending the geometric construction of chords and tangents on an elliptic curve. For any given algebraic curve $\mathcal X$ and reduced divisors $D_1, D_2 \in…
We consider the quotient variety associated to a linear representation of the cyclic group of order p in characteristic p>0. We estimate the minimal discrepancy of exceptional divisors over the singular locus. In particular, we give…
For a characteristic $p > 0$ variety $X$ with controlled $F$-singularities, we state conditions which imply that a divisorial sheaf is Cohen-Macaulay or at least has depth $\geq 3$ at certain points. This mirrors results of Koll\'ar for…
Let X be a normal variety such that $K_X$ is Q-Cartier, and let $f: X \rightarrow X$ be a finite surjective morphism of degree at least two. We establish a close relation between the irreducible components of the locus of singularities that…
We explore connections between the category of tropical abelian varieties (tav), $\mathbb{T}\mathcal{A}$, and the the category of tropical curves, $\mathbb{T}\mathcal{C}$, first in a broader context and then specifically by studying the…
We compute the minimal log discrepancies of determinantal varieties of square matrices, and more generally of pairs $\bigl(D^k,\sum \alpha_i D^{k_i}\bigr)$ consisting of a determinantal variety (of square matrices) and an $\mathbb R$-linear…
To every singular reduced projective curve X one can associate, following E. Esteves, many fine compactified Jacobians, depending on the choice of a polarization on X, each of which yields a modular compactification of a disjoint union of…
Our goal is to settle the following faded problem: The Jacobian Conjecture (JC_n): If f_1,..,f_n are elements in a polynomial ring k[X_1,..,X_n] over a field k of characteristic 0 such that det(\partial f_i/ \partial X_j) is a nonzero…
It follows from the Grothendieck-Ogg-Shafarevich formula that the rank of an abelian variety (with trivial trace) defined over the function field of a curve is bounded by a quantity which depends on the genus of the base curve and on bad…
It is shown that there exists a commuting diagram of mappings between dynamics of classical systems on one side and variational principles for geodesic lines in stationary spacetimes of general relativity on the other. The construction of…
Given a smooth, proper curve $C$ over a discretely valued field $k$, we equip the $k$-vector space $H^{0}(C,\omega_{C/k})$ with a canonical discrete valuation $v_{\mathrm{can}}$ which measures how canonical forms degenerate on regular…
The Jacobian conjecture involves the map $y= x - V(x)$ where $y, x$ are n-dimensional vectors, $V(x)$ is a symmetric polynomial of degree $d$ for which the Jacobian hypothesis holds: $ e^{Tr \ln(1- V'(x))} =1,\ \forall x$. The conjecture…
Novikov's conjecture on the Riemann-Schottky problem: {\it the Jacobians of smooth algebraic curves are precisely those indecomposable principally polarized abelian varieties (ppavs) whose theta-functions provide solutions to the…
We develop a new approach to construction of numerical invariants for ramified coverings of algebraic surfaces of prime characteristic. Let A be a two-dimensional regular local ring of prime characteristic p with algebraically closed…
Differentiable conjugacies link dynamical systems that share properties such as the stability multipliers of corresponding orbits. It provides a stronger classification than topological conjugacy, which only requires qualitative similarity.…
