We prove that any affine, resp. polarized projective, spherical variety admits a flat degeneration to an affine, resp. polarized projective, toric variety. Motivated by Mirror Symmetry, we give conditions for the limit toric variety to be a…

It is known from work by H. Abels and P. Abramenko that for a classical Fq-group G of rank n the arithemetic lattice G(Fq[t]) of Fq[t]-rational points is of type Fn-1 provided that q is large enough. We show that the statement is true…

For any affine hypersurface defined by a complete symmetric polynomial in $k\geq 3$ variables of degree $m$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ of $q$ elements, a special case of our theorem says that this hypersurface has at least…

I study the midgap spectrum of the fermion-vortex system in two spatial dimensions. The existence of bound states, in addition to the zero modes found by Jackiw and Rossi, is established. For a singly quantized vortex, I present complete…

Given a logarithmic $1$-form on the snc locus of a log canonical surface pair $(X, D)$ over a perfect field of characteristic $p \ge 7$, we show that it extends with at worst logarithmic poles to any resolution of singularities. We also…

We consider Voevodsky's slice tower for a finite spectrum E in the motivic stable homotopy category over a perfect field k. In case k has finite cohomological dimension (in characteristic two, we also require that k is infinite), we show…

We prove that if $C$ is a reflexive smooth plane curve of degree $d$ defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with $d\leq q+1$, then there is an $\mathbb{F}_q$-line $L$ that intersects $C$ transversely. We also prove the same result for…

We give a complete list of the points in the spectrum $$\mathcal{Z}=\{\inf_{(x,y)\in\Lambda,xy\neq0}{\left\vert xy\right\vert},\,\text{$\Lambda$ is a unimodular rational lattice of $\mathbb{R}^2$}\}$$ above $\frac{1}{3}.$ We further show…

We prove that the number of vertices of a polytope of a particular kind is exponentially large in the dimension of the polytope. As a corollary, we prove that an n-dimensional centrally symmetric polytope with O(n) facets has 2^{Omega(n)}…

We investigate finite torsors over big opens of spectra of strongly $F$-regular germs that do not extend to torsors over the whole spectrum. Let $(R,\mathfrak{m},k)$ be a strongly $F$-regular $k$-germ where $k$ is an algebraically closed…

We show that over the field of complex numbers, \emph{every} homogeneous polynomial of degree $d$ can be approximated (in the border complexity sense) by a depth-$3$ arithmetic circuit of top fan-in at most $d+1$. This is quite surprising…

We prove that any finite, abstract n-polytope is covered by a finite, abstract regular n-polytope.

A conjecture of Fuglede states that a bounded measurable set D, of measure 1, can tile space by translations if and only if the Hilbert space L^2(D) has an orthonormal basis consisting of exponentials exp(i 2 pi lambda x). If D has the…

In this paper, we present some checkable criteria for the spectral finiteness of a finite subset of the real $d\times d$ matrix space $\mathbb{R}^{d\times d}$, where $2\le d<\infty$.

We prove a few results concerning the notions of finite dimensionality of mixed Tate motives in the sense of Kimura and O'Sullivan. It is shown that being oddly or evenly finite dimensional is equivalent to vanishing of certain cohomology…

In this paper we show that the global (log) canonical threshold of $d$-sheeted covers of the $M$-dimensional projective space of index 1, where $d\geqslant 4$, is equal to one for almost all families (except for a finite set). The varieties…

Let $C$ be a smooth projective irreducible curve defined over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and $K=\mathbb{F}_q(C)$. Let $A\subset K$ be the ring of functions regular outside a fixed place $\infty$ of $K$. Let…

The Hecke algebras and quantum group of affine type A admit geometric realizations in terms of complete flags and partial flags over a local field, respectively. Subsequently, it is demonstrated that the quantum group associated to partial…

In this note we give a closed expression for the number of points over finite fields of the Lusztig nilpotent variety associated to any quiver without edge loops, in terms of Kac's A-polynomial. We conjecture a similar result for quivers in…

An orthomorphism over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ is a permutation $\theta:\mathbb{F}_q\mapsto\mathbb{F}_q$ such that the map $x\mapsto\theta(x)-x$ is also a permutation of $\mathbb{F}_q$. The degree of an orthomorphism of $\mathbb{F}_q$,…
