The discriminant of a multivariate polynomial with indeterminate coefficients is not necessarily a hypersurface, and characterizing its codimension was an open problem for quite a while. We resolve this problem for the discriminants of…

For each 3-dimensional non-Lie Leibniz algebra over the complex numbers, we describe the algebra of polynomial invariants and determine its group of automorphisms. As a consequence, we establish that any two non-nilpotent 3-dimensional…

We establish the Hodge conjecture for the top dimensional cohomology group with integer coefficients of any $q$-complete complex manifold $X$ with $q<\dim X$. This holds in particular for the complement $X=\mathbb{C}\mathbb{P}^n\setminus A$…

Symmetric ideals in increasingly larger polynomial rings that form an ascending chain are investigated. We focus on the asymptotic behavior of codimensions and projective dimensions of ideals in such a chain. If the ideals are graded it is…

Let $S$ be a polynomial algebra over a field. We study classes of monomial ideals (as for example lexsegment ideals) of $S$ having minimal depth. In particular, Stanley's conjecture holds for these ideals. Also we show that if Stanley's…

We show that a projective triangulation of a subcomplex of a polyhedral complex can be extended to the whole complex. As a result, we show that the weak semistable reduction result of Abramovich - Karu alg-geom/9707012 can be refined, so…

The Mishchenko-Fomenko conjecture says that for each real or complex finite-dimensional Lie algebra $\goth g$ there exists a complete set of commuting polynomials on its dual space $\goth g^*$. In terms of the theory of integrable…

We prove that there exists a universal constant $r_3$ such that if $X$ is a smooth projective threefold over $\mathbb{C}$ with non-negative Kodaira dimension, then the linear system $|r K_X|$ admits a fibration that is birational to the…

Let k be a perfect field and A a finite dimensional k-algebra of finite global dimension (e.g. the path algebra of a finite quiver without oriented cycles). Making use of the recent theory of noncommutative motives, we prove that the value…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of crossed module for Hom-Leibniz-Rinehart algebras. We study the cohomology and extension theory of Hom-Leibniz-Rinehart algebras. It is proved that there is one-to-one correspondence between…

We study Fourier transforms of regular holonomic D-modules. In particular we show that their solution complexes are monodromic. An application to direct images of some irregular holonomic D-modules will be given. Moreover we give a new…

The hypothetical existence of a good theory of mixed motives predicts many deep phenomena related to algebraic cycles. One of these, a generalization of Bloch's conjecture says that "small Hodge diamonds" go with "small Chow groups".…

Depth three and finite depth are notions known for subfactors via diagrams and Frobenius extensions of rings via centralizers in endomorphism towers. From the point of view of depth two ring extensions, we provide a clear definition of…

This article is an exposition of recent results on self-similar sets, asserting that if the dimension is smaller than the trivial upper bound then there are almost overlaps between cylinders. We give a heuristic derivation of the theorem…

The Komlos conjecture in discrepancy theory states that for some constant K and for any m by n matrix A whose columns lie in the unit ball there exists a +/- 1 vector x such that the infinity norm of Ax is bounded above by K. This…

In this paper, we confirm the Fino-Vezzoni Conjecture for unimodular Lie algebras which contain abelian ideals of codimension two, a natural generalization to the class of almost abelian Lie algebras. This provides new evidence towards the…

The set of homogeneous polynomials of degree $D$ is a topological space that contains the subspace $Hyp(D)$ constituted only by hyperbolic polynomials. In 2002, V. I. Arnold conjectured that the number of connected components of $Hyp (D)$…

The Lichtenbaum-Quillen conjecture for smooth complex varieties states that algebraic and topological K-theory with finite coefficients become isomorphic in high degrees. We define the "Lichtenbaum-Quillen dimension" of a variety in terms…

Let $D, G\subset{\Bbb C}$ be domains, let $A\subset D$, $B\subset G$ be locally regular sets, and let $X:=(D\times B)\cup(A\times G)$. Assume that $A$ is a Borel set. Let $M$ be a proper analytic subset of an open neighborhood of $X$. Then…

The main aim of this article is to prove the one-dimensionality of the third algebraic cohomology of the Virasoro algebra with values in the adjoint module. We announced this result in a previous publication with only a sketch of the proof.…
