In this article we study forbidden loci and typical ranks of forms with respect to the embeddings of $\mathbb P^1\times \mathbb P^1$ given by the line bundles $(2,2d)$. We introduce the Ranestad-Schreyer locus corresponding to supports of…
We introduce a weak notion of $2\times 2$-minors of gradients of a suitable subclass of $BV$ functions. In the case of maps in $BV(\mathbb{R}^2;\mathbb{R}^2)$ such a notion extends the standard definition of Jacobian determinant to…
To every finite-dimensional $\mathbb C$-algebra $\Lambda$ of finite representation type we associate an affine variety. These varieties are a large generalization of the varieties defined by "$u$ variables" satisfying "$u$-equations", first…
Let G be a connected reductive complex affine algebraic group, and let X denote the moduli space of G-valued representations of a rank r free group. We first characterize the singularities in X, extending a theorem of Richardson and proving…
Let $\Lambda$ be a finite-dimensional algebra with finite global dimension, $R_k=K[X]/(X^k)$ be the $\mathcal{Z}$-graded local ring with $k\geq1$, and $\Lambda_k=\Lambda\otimes_K R_k$. We consider the singularity category…
The characteristic varieties of a space are the jump loci for homology of rank 1 local systems. The way in which the geometry of these varieties may vary with the characteristic of the ground field is reflected in the homology of finite…
In this paper, we prove determinant formulas for the $K$-theory classes of the structure sheaves of degeneracy loci classes associated to vexillary permutations in type $A$. As a consequence we obtain determinant formulas for…
Let $k$ be a number field. We investigate the Mordell-Weil ranks of Jacobian varieties $J_C$ associated with algebraic curves $C$ of genus $g \geq 1$ defined by affine equations of the form $y^s=x(ax^r+b)$, where $a, b \in k$ ($ab \neq 0$),…
The germ of an algebraic variety is naturally equipped with two different metrics up to bilipschitz equivalence. The inner metric and the outer metric. One calls a germ of a variety Lipschitz normally embedded if the two metrics are…
For the class of stably dissipative Lotka-Volterra systems we prove that the rank of its defining matrix, which is the dimension of the associated invariant foliation, is completely determined by the system's graph.
Let $Y$ be a smooth complex projective variety of dimension $N+1$, $L$ an invertible sufficiently ample sheaf, $X\in |L|$ a smooth hypersurface and $\lambda\in F^kH^N(X,C)$ a vanishing cohomology class, where $F^{*}$ is the Hodge filtration…
We show that the conditions imposed on a second order linear differential equation with rational coefficients on the complex line by requiring it to have regular singularities with fixed exponents at the points of a finite set $P$ and…
We show that birational smooth complex projective varieties with numerically effective canonical bundles along the exceptional loci have the same Betti numbers. In particular, birational smooth minimal models share the same Betti numbers.…
Smooth complex polarized varieties $(X,L)$ with a vector subspace $V \subseteq H^0(X,L)$ spanning $L$ are classified under the assumption that the locus ${\Cal D}(X,V)$ of singular elements of $|V|$ has codimension equal to $\dim(X)-i$,…
The joint spectral radius of a bounded set of d times d real or complex matrices is defined to be the maximum exponential rate of growth of products of matrices drawn from that set. Under quite mild conditions such a set of matrices admits…
We introduce the relation ${\rho}_{\lambda}$-orthogonality in the setting of normed spaces as an extension of some orthogonality relations based on norm derivatives, and present some of its essential properties. Among other things, we give…
Let $X$ be a smooth manifold and $\mathbf{k}$ be a commutative (or at least $\mathbb{E}_2$) ring spectrum. Given a smooth exact Lagrangian $L\hookrightarrow T^*X$, the microlocal sheaf theory (following Kashiwara--Schapira) naturally…
We consider the indeterminacy locus $I(\Phi_n)$ of the iterate map $\Phi_n:\overline{M}_d-rightarrow\overline{M}_{d^n}$, where $\overline{M}_d$ is the GIT compactification of the moduli space $M_d$ of degree $d$ complex rational maps. We…
We investigate rank revealing factorizations of $m \times n$ polynomial matrices $P(\lambda)$ into products of three, $P(\lambda) = L(\lambda) E(\lambda) R(\lambda)$, or two, $P(\lambda) = L(\lambda) R(\lambda)$, polynomial matrices. Among…
A rational map $\phi: \mathbb{P}_k^m \dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}_k^n$ is defined by homogeneous polynomials of a common degree $d$. We establish a linear bound in terms of $d$ for the number of $(m-1)$-dimensional fibers of $\phi$, by using…
