A heuristic principle attributed to A. Bloch says that a family of holomorphic functions is likely to be normal if there is no nonconstant entire functions with this property. We discuss this principle and survey recent results that have…

We proove a Bloch's theorem in an almost complex projective plane.

In this paper, we prove that Bloch's conjecture holds for all smooth, complex, projective surfaces with $p_g=q=0$ and $K^2=9$.

In this paper, we extend the theory of simultaneous Diophantine approximation to infinite dimensions. Moreover, we discuss Dirichlet-type theorems in a very general framework and define what it means for such a theorem to be optimal. We…

We give a survey on the theory of representation-finite and certain minimal representation-infinite algebras.The main goals are the existence of multiplicative bases and of coverings with good properties. Both are attained via…

We will generalize a Maximum Principle at Infinity in the parabolic case given by De Lima [Ann. Global Anal. Geom. ${\bf 20}$, 325-343 2001] and De Lima and Meeks [Indiana Univ. Math. Journal ${\bf 53}$ 5, 1211-1223 2004], for disjoints…

We prove a strong analogue of Liouville's Theorem in Diophantine approximation for points on arbitrary algebraic varieties. We use this theorem to prove a conjecture of the first author for cubic surfaces in $\P^3$.

We prove the conjecture stated by Spencer Bloch in 1975 and saying that the Albanese kernel of a smooth projective surface is 0, provided its second cohomology group is algebraic.

We prove completeness of preferential conditional logic with respect to convexity over finite sets of points in the Euclidean plane. A conditional is defined to be true in a finite set of points if all extreme points of the set interpreting…

We extend Berge's Maximum Theorem to allow for incomplete preferences. We first provide a simple version of the Maximum Theorem for convex feasible sets and a fixed preference. Then, we show that if, in addition to the traditional…

Comments about the paper by Elsholz, Fermat's last theorem implies Euclid's infinitude of primes, (2021), and simplification.

The aim of this article is to prove Bloch's conjecture, asserting that the group of rational equivalence classes of zero cycles of degree 0 is trivial for surfaces with geometric genus zero, for regular generalized Burniat type surfaces.…

In this paper, we continue our project of defining and studying the infinitesimal versions of the classical, real analytic, invariants of motives. Here, we construct an infinitesimal analog of Bloch's regulator. Let $X/k$ be a scheme of…

We obtain an optimal exponential square integrability theorem for the Bergman projection of a function bounded by 1 in modulus. This is interpreted as the statement that the asymptotic tail variance of such a function is at most 1. The…

We generalise Birch's seminal work on forms in many variables to handle a system of forms in which the degrees need not all be the same. This allows us to prove the Hasse principle, weak approximation, and the Manin-Peyre conjecture for a…

We show that the extended Bloch representation of quantum mechanics also applies to infinite-dimensional entities, to the extent that the number of (possibly infinitely degenerate) outcomes of a measurement remains finite, which is always…

We develop a finite element method for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a surface with boundary and nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. The method is based on a triangulation of the surface and the boundary conditions are enforced…

Let X be a complex surface with no nontrivial 2-forms. Then we show that Bloch's conjecture is true (i.e. the Albanese map in this case is injective) if and only if any homologically trivial idempotent in the ring of correspondences…

Solving a long-standing open question in convex geometry, we will show that typical convex surfaces contain points of infinite curvature in all tangent directions. To prove this, we use an easy curvature definition imitating the idea of…

Let A be a Q-linear pseudo-abelian rigid tensor category. A notion of finiteness due to Kimura and (independently) O'Sullivan guarantees that the ideal of numerically trivial endomorphism of an object is nilpotent. We generalize this result…
