We prove special cases of a general conjecture: If an invertible field theory admits a projectively topological boundary theory, then it has finite order in the abelian group of invertible field theories. One can substitute `gapped' for…

Let $G$ be a linear algebraic group over an infinite field $k$. Loosely speaking, a $G$-torsor over $k$-variety is said to be versal if it specializes to every $G$-torsor over any $k$-field. The existence of versal torsors is well-known. We…

The strong Bombieri-Lang conjecture postulates that, for every variety $X$ of general type over a field $k$ finitely generated over $\mathbb{Q}$, there exists an open subset $U\subset X$ such that $U(K)$ is finite for every finitely…

The motivation for this paper is to detect when an irreducible projective variety V is not toric. We do this by analyzing a Lie group and a Lie algebra associated to V. If the dimension of V is strictly less than the dimension of the above…

We show that the usual Hodge conjecture implies the general Hodge conjecture for certain abelian varieties of type III, and use this to deduce the general Hodge conjecture for all powers of certain 4-dimensional abelian varieties of type…

The Bogomolov conjecture for a curve claims finiteness of algebraic points on the curve which are small with respect to the canonical height. Ullmo has established this conjecture over number fields, and Moriwaki generalized it to the…

We first prove Vojta's abc conjecture over function fields for Campana points on projective toric varieties with high multiplicity along the boundary. As a consequence, we obtain a version of Campana's conjecture on finite coverings of…

For a weighted projective line X, a wide subcategory of the category coh-X of coherent sheaves over X is called c-invariant if it is closed under the grading shift of the canonical element c. We proved that a c-invariant wide subcategory of…

We construct examples in any odd dimension of contact manifolds with finite and non-zero algebraic torsion (in the sense of Latschev-Wendl), which are therefore tight and do not admit strong symplectic fillings. We prove that Giroux torsion…

We associate determinant lines to objects of the extended abelian category built out of a von Neumann category with a trace. Using this we suggest constructions of the combinatorial and the analytic L^2 torsions which, unlike the work of…

We establish new general etale versions of theorems of Barth and Sommese. Respectively, we compute the lower etale cohomology of closed subvarieties of $P^N$ of small codimensions and of their preimages with respect to proper morphisms…

Let $G$ be a semiabelian variety and $C$ a curve in $G$ that is not contained in a proper algebraic subgroup of $G$. In this situation, conjectures of Pink and Zilber imply that there are at most finitely many points contained in the…

In [17], we proved a structure theorem on the Mordell-Weil group of abelian varieties over function fields that arise as the twists of abelian varieties by the cyclic covers of projective varieties in terms of the Prym varieties associated…

The main motivation here is a question: whether any polyhedron which can be subdivided into convex pieces without adding a vertex, and which has the same vertices as a convex polyhedron, is infinitesimally rigid. We prove that it is indeed…

We prove an elementary but somewhat unexpected result about projective embeddings of smooth varieties X whose cotangent bundles are numerically effective. Specifically, we show that the degree of X in any projective embedding must grow…

In this paper we show an explicit relation between chains of torsion classes and weak stability conditions over an abelian category. In particular, up to a natural equivalence, they coincide. We investigate topological properties of the…

Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra satisfying the following conditions: (i) The homogeneous subspaces of V of weights less than 0 are 0, the homogeneous subspace of V of weight 0 is spanned by the vacuum and V' is isomorphic to V as…

We present some results supporting the Iwase-Sakai conjecture about coincidence of the topological complexity $TC(X)$ and monoidal topological complexity $TC^M(X)$. Using these results we provide lower and upper bounds for the topological…

We study rational points on ramified covers of abelian varieties over certain infinite Galois extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$. In particular, we prove that every elliptic curve $E$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ has the weak Hilbert property of…

Let $X$, $Y$ be closed irreducible subvarieties of an absolutely simple abelian variety of dimension $g$ over a field. If $\dim(X) + \dim(Y) \le g$, we prove that the addition morphism $X \times Y \to X + Y$ is semismall. As a consequence,…
