Generalizing the well-known Shafarevich hyperbolicity conjecture, it has been conjectured by Viehweg that a quasi-projective manifold that admits a generically finite morphism to the moduli stack of canonically polarized varieties is…

In this book, we establish a theory of adelic line bundles over quasi-projective varieties over finitely generated fields. Besides definitions of adelic line bundles, we consider their intersection theory, volume theory, and height theory,…

In this article, we study the infinitemisal invariant of the relative higher Abel Jacobi map of a smooth open morphism. We give a generalization of a theorem of Voisin to open varieties and higher Chow groups and as a corollary a non…

We study classes of graphs with bounded clique-width that are well-quasi-ordered by the induced subgraph relation, in the presence of labels on the vertices. We prove that, given a finite presentation of a class of graphs, one can decide…

We formulate a conjecture characterizing smooth projective varieties in positive characteristic whose Frobenius morphism can be lifted modulo $p^2$ - we expect that such varieties, after a finite \'etale cover, admit a toric fibration over…

Let $Y$ be a smooth quasi-projective complex variety equipped with a simple normal crossings compactification. We show that integral points are potentially dense in the (relative) character varieties parametrizing $SL_2$-local systems on…

We isolate a new class of ultrafilters on N, called "quasi-selective" because they are intermediate between selective ultrafilters and P-points. (Under the Continuum Hypothesis these three classes are distinct.) The existence of…

A combinatorial object is said to be quasirandom if it exhibits certain properties that are typically seen in a truly random object of the same kind. It is known that a permutation is quasirandom if and only if the pattern density of each…

If a finite quasisimple group G with simple quotient S is embedded into a suitable classical group X through the smallest degree of a projective representation of S, then the normalizer of G in X is a maximal subgroup of X, up to two series…

We show that given a simple abelian variety $A$ and a normal variety $V$ defined over a finitely generated field $K$ of characteristic zero, the set of non-constant morphisms $V \to A$ satisfying certain tangency conditions imposed by a…

Let $p$ be an algebraic point of a projective variety $X$ defined over a number field. Liouville inequality tells us that the norm at $p$ of a non vanishing integral global section of an hermitian line bundle over $X$ is either zero or it…

We discuss optimal constants of certain projections on subsequences of weakly null sequences. Positive results yield constants arbitrarily close to $1$ for Schreier type projections, and arbitrarily close to $1$ for Elton type projections…

We generalize the well-known numerical criterion for projective spaces by Cho, Miyaoka and Shepherd-Barron to varieties with at worst quotient singularities. Let $X$ be a normal projective variety of dimension $n \geq 3$ with at most…

The Shapley-Folkman theorem shows that Minkowski averages of uniformly bounded sets tend to be convex when the number of terms in the sum becomes much larger than the ambient dimension. In optimization, Aubin and Ekeland [1976] show that…

We prove finiteness results for sets of varieties over number fields with good reduction outside a given finite set of places using cyclic covers. We obtain a version of the Shafarevich conjecture for weighted projective surfaces, double…

We prove some general results on syzygies of smooth projective varieties with numerically trivial canonical line bundle. This allows to confirm several cases of Mukai's syzygies conjecture for finite quotients of abelian varieties in any…

The purpose of this note is to extend some classical results on quasi-projective schemes to the setting of derived algebraic geometry. Namely, we want to show that any vector bundle on a derived scheme admitting an ample line bundle can be…

The regularity lemma of Szemeredi asserts that one can partition every graph into a bounded number of quasi-random bipartite graphs. In some applications however, one would like to have a strong control on how quasi-random these bipartite…

By a $B$-regular variety, we mean a smooth projective variety over $C$ admitting an algebraic action of the upper triangular Borel subgroup $B \subset SL_2(C)$ such that the unipotent radical in $B$ has a unique fixed point. A result of M.…

We give a criterion for a quasi-ordinary polynomial to be irreducible. The criterion is based on the notion of approximate roots and that of generalized Newton polygons.
