Hypersurfaces embedded in conformal manifolds appear frequently as boundary data in boundary-value problems in cosmology and string theory. Viewed as the non-null conformal infinity of a spacetime, we consider hypersurfaces embedded in a…
It was recently proven by Esnault, Shusterman and the second named author, that the \'etale fundamental group of a connected smooth projective variety over an algebraically closed field $k$ is finitely presented. In this note, we extend…
We construct several infinite families of nonnegatively curved manifolds of low cohomogeneity and small dimension which can be distinguished by their cohomology rings. In particular, we exhibit an infinite family of eight-dimensional…
Geometric Invariant Theory gives a method for constructing quotients for group actions on algebraic varieties which in many cases appear as moduli spaces parametrizing isomorphism classes of geometric objects (vector bundles, polarized…
We classify complete curvature homogeneous metrics on simply connected four dimensional manifolds which are invariant under a cohomogeneity one action. We show that they are either isometric to a symmetric space with one of its…
In this paper we study the shape differentiability properties of a class of boundary integral operators and of potentials with weakly singular pseudo-homogeneous kernels acting between classical Sobolev spaces, with respect to smooth…
This note is an attempt to generalize Bolibruch's theorem from the projective line to curves of higher genus. We show that an irreducible representation of the fundamental group of an open in a curve of higher genus has always a…
Quantum homogeneous supervector bundles arising from the quantum general linear supergoup are studied. The space of holomorphic sections is promoted to a left exact covariant functor from a category of modules over a quantum parabolic…
A numerical scheme is developed for solution of the Goursat problem for a class of nonlinear hyperbolic systems with an arbitrary number of independent variables. Convergence results are proved for this difference scheme. These results are…
We describe the indecomposable components of the tangent bundle of the punctual Hilbert scheme of a smooth projective surface. As an application, we prove a recent conjecture about classification of products of punctual Hilbert schemes of…
For a smooth finite cyclic covering over a projective space of dimension greater than one, we show that the group of automorphisms acts faithfully on the cohomology except for a few cases. In characteristic zero, we study the equivariant…
In this note we show that every (real or complex) vector bundle over a compact rank one symmetric space carries, after taking the Whitney sum with a trivial bundle of sufficiently large rank, a metric with nonnegative sectional curvature.…
We reconsider differential geometry from the point of view of the quantum theory of non-relativistic spinning particles, which provides examples of supersymmetric quantum mechanics. This enables us to encode geometrical structure in…

We prove that any compact surface with constant positive curvature and conical singularities can be decomposed into irreducible components of standard shape, glued along geodesic arcs connecting conical singularities. This is a spherical…
We provide a characterization of parallelizable compact complex manifolds and their quotients using holomorphic symmetric differentials. In particular we show that compact complex manifolds of Kodaira dimension 0 having strongly semiample…
We study integral points on varieties with infinite \'etale fundamental groups. More precisely, for a number field $F$ and $X/F$ a smooth projective variety, we prove that for any geometrically Galois cover $\varphi\colon Y \to X$ of degree…
We prove that for any finite-dimensional differential graded algebra with separable semisimple part the category of perfect modules is equivalent to a full subcategory of the category of perfect complexes on a smooth projective scheme with…
Anabelian geometry suggests that, for suitably geometric objects, their \'etale fundamental groups determine the geometric objects up to isomorphism. From a group-theoretic viewpoint, this philosophy requires rigidity properties, which…
