Let $k$ be a field of arbitrary characteristic, $A$ be a domain and $K=\mathrm{frac}(A)$. Then (1) All exponential maps of $k^{[3]}$ are rigid, and we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the triangularity of $\delta \in…
An affine algebraic variety $X$ is rigid if the algebra of regular functions ${\mathbb K}[X]$ admits no nonzero locally nilpotent derivation. We prove that a factorial trinomial hypersurface is rigid if and only if every exponent in the…
Fix a field $k$ of characteristic zero. If $a_1, ..., a_n$ ($n>2$) are positive integers, the integral domain $B = k[X_1, ..., X_n] / ( X_1^{a_1} + ... + X_n^{a_n} )$ is called a Pham-Brieskorn ring. It is conjectured that if $a_i > 1$ for…
Let A be a path A-infinity-algebra over a positively graded quiver Q. It is proved that the derived category of A is triangulated equivalent to the derived category of kQ, which is viewed as a dg algebra with trivial differential. The main…
Given a triangulated category over a field $K$ and a field extension $L/K$, we investigate how one can construct a triangulated category over $L$. Our approach produces the derived category of the base change scheme $X_L$ if the category…
For a field $\mathbb{F}$, the notion of $\mathbb{F}$-tightness of simplicial complexes was introduced by K\"uhnel. K\"uhnel and Lutz conjectured that any $\mathbb{F}$-tight triangulation of a closed manifold is the most economic of all…
Using results in a previous paper "Non-semistable exceptional objects in hereditary categories", we focus here on studying the topology of the space of Bridgeland stability conditions on $D^b(Rep_k(Q ))$, where $Q$ is the acyclic triangular…
The main result of this paper is that there is sometimes a triangulated equivalence between $D_Q( A )$, the $Q$-shaped derived category of an algebra $A$, and $D( B )$, the classic derived category of a different algebra $B$. By…
A triangulation of a surface is k-irreducible if every non-contractible curve has length at least k and any edge contraction breaks this property. Equivalently, every edge belongs to a non-contractible curve of length k and there are no…
In this paper we give an algorithm to recognize triangulable locally nilpotent derivations in dimension three. In case the given derivation is triangulable, our method produces a coordinate system in which it exhibits a triangular form.
We prove that any `finite-type' component of a stability space of a triangulated category is contractible. The motivating example of such a component is the stability space of the Calabi--Yau-$N$ category $\mathcal{D}(\Gamma_N Q)$…
Let $K$ be a number field, let $L$ be an algebraic (possibly infinite degree) extension of $K$, and let $O_K$ $\subset$ $O_L$ be their rings of integers. Suppose $A$ is an abelian variety defined over $K$ such that $A(K)$ is infinite and…
It is well known that a triangulation of a closed 2-manifold is tight with respect to a field of characteristic two if and only if it is neighbourly; and it is tight with respect to a field of odd characteristic if and only if it is…
Tightness of a triangulated manifold is a topological condition, roughly meaning that any simplexwise linear embedding of the triangulation into euclidean space is "as convex as possible". It can thus be understood as a generalization of…
In this paper we prove that if S is a smooth, irreducible, projective, rational, complex surface and D an effective, connected, reduced divisor on S, then the pair (S,D) is contractible if the log-Kodaira dimension of the pair is $-\infty$.…
Let $K$ be a number field and $d_K$ the absolute value of the discrimant of $K/\mathbb{Q}$. We consider the root discriminant $d_L^{\frac{1}{[L:\mathbb{Q}]}}$ of extensions $L/K$. We show that for any $N>0$ and any positive integer n, the…
This paper is concerned with the study of the dimension theory of tensor products of algebras over a field $k$. We answer an open problem set in [6] and compute dim$(A\otimes_kB)$ when $A$ is a $k$-algebra arising from a specific pullback…
Let $A$ be the polynomial algebra in $r$ variables with coefficients in an algebraically closed field $k$. When the characteristic of $k$ is $2$, Carlsson conjectured that any $\mathrm{dg}$-$A$-module that is free of rank $N$ as an…
We discuss the problem of classifying birational extremal contractions of smooth threefolds where the canonical bundle is trivial along the curves contracted, in the case when a divisor is contracted to a point. We prove the analytic…
We prove two results on stacked triangulated manifolds in this paper: (a) every stacked triangulation of a connected manifold with or without boundary is obtained from a simplex or the boundary of a simplex by certain combinatorial…
