Motivated by questions on the delocalization of random surfaces, we prove that random surfaces satisfying a Lipschitz constraint rarely develop extremal gradients. Previous proofs of this fact relied on reflection positivity and were thus…
It goes back to Ahlfors that a real algebraic curve admits a real-fibered morphism to the projective line if and only if the real part of the curve disconnects its complex part. Inspired by this result, we are interested in characterising…
The study of ordering polytopes has been essential to the solution of various challenging combinatorial optimization problems. For instance, the incorporation of facet defining inequalities (FDIs) from these polytopes in branch-and-cut…
In this paper, we propose an improved singularity structure simplification method for hexahedral (hex) meshes using a weighted ranking approach. In previous work, the selection of to-be-collapsed base complex sheets/chords is only based on…
The simplest version of the Spin-polynomial invariants of the underlying differentiable structures of algebraic surfaces were considered and the simplest arguments were used in order to distinguish the underlying smooth structures of…
A weak wild arithmetic quotient singularity arises from the quotient of a smooth arithmetic surface by a finite group action, where the inertia group of a point on a closed characteristic p fiber is a p-group acting with smallest possible…
In this paper we develop the theory of strongly singular subalgebras of von Neumann algebras, begun in earlier work. We mainly examine the situation of type $\tto$ factors arising from countable discrete groups. We give simple criteria for…
Two families of surfaces arise from considering cyclic branched covers of $\mathbb{P}^{2}$ over smooth quartic curves. These consist of degree 2 del Pezzo surfaces with a $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ action and $K3$ surfaces with a…
This paper presents two new constructions related to singular solutions of polynomial systems. The first is a new deflation method for an isolated singular root. This construction uses a single linear differential form defined from the…
We present an efficient algorithm for a problem in the interface between clustering and graph embeddings. An embedding $\varphi:G\rightarrow M$ of a graph $G$ into a 2-manifold $M$ maps the vertices in $V(G)$ to distinct points and the…
We describe the effect of rational singularities on the Brauer group of a surface, and compute the Brauer groups of all singular del Pezzo surfaces over an algebraically closed field.
I show how to construct Monte Carlo algorithms (programs), prove that they are correct and document them. Complicated algorithms are build using a handful of elementary methods. This construction process is transparently illustrated using…
We present the algorithms for computing the normal form of unimodular complete intersection surface singularities classified by C. T. C. Wall. He indicated in the list only the $\mu$-constant strata and not the complete classification in…
We classify all possible automorphism groups of smooth cubic surfaces over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. As an intermediate step we also classify automorphism groups of quartic del Pezzo surfaces. We show that…
We give a classification of all Delsarte surfaces with only ADE singularities. Using this we give closed formulas for the Picard numbers of such surfaces.
For any $d\in \{1,\ldots,6\}$, we prove that the web of conics on a del Pezzo surface of degree $d$ carries a functional identity whose components are antisymmetric hyperlogarithms of weight $7-d$. Our approach is uniform with respect to…
A natural problem of algebraic dynamics is to classify the complex projective varieties that admit an endomorphism of degree greater than 1. Joshi solved the problem for all canonical del Pezzo surfaces with Picard number 1 except one, a…
We investigate the characteristic numbers of Del Pezzo surfaces using degenerations.
The classification of one parameter local Coulomb branch solution of theories with eight supercharges is given by assuming that it is given by a genus $g$ fiberation of Riemann surfaces. The crucial point is the fact that certain conjugacy…
We propose a robust normal estimation method for both point clouds and meshes using a low rank matrix approximation algorithm. First, we compute a local feature descriptor for each point and find similar, non-local neighbors that we…
