Fix a number field k. We prove that if there is an algorithm for deciding whether a smooth projective geometrically integral k-variety has a k-point, then there is an algorithm for deciding whether an arbitrary k-variety has a k-point and…

We propose the study of a conformally invariant functional for surfaces of complex projective plane which is closely related to the classical Willmore functional. We show that minimal surfaces of complex projective plane are critical for…

Given a family of complex affine planes, we show that it is trivial over a Zariski open subset of the base. The proof relies upon a relative version of the contraction theorem.

We prove an existence theorem for good moduli spaces, and use it to construct the second flip in the log minimal model program for the moduli space of stable curves. In fact, our methods give a uniform, self-contained construction of the…

We propose a new formulation of a vanishing theorem for surfaces. Although this vanishing theorem follows easily from the well-known Kawamata--Viehweg vanishing theorem, it turns out to be remarkably useful. In particular, it is sufficient…

In this note we give a shortened proof of a theorem of Rudnev, which bounds the number of incidences between points and planes over an arbitrary field. Rudnev's proof uses a map that goes via the four-dimensional Klein quadric to a…

We give a short and self-contained proof of the Marker-Steinhorn Theorem for o-minimal expansions of ordered groups, based on an analysis of linear orders definable in such structures.

We provide new families of minimal codes in any characteristic. Also, an inductive construction of minimal codes is presented.

In this paper, we give a simple proof for the small cancellation conditions of the upper presentations of 2-bridge link groups, which holds the key to the proof of the main result of [1]. We also give an alternative proof of the main result…

In this paper, a simple proof for the existence iterative scheme by using two Hilbert spaces due to Kazmi et al. [K. R. Kazmi, R. Ali, M. Furkan, Hybrid iterative method for split monotone \ldots, Numer Algor, 2017] is provided.

In this paper, we prove that any two birational projective varieties with finite quotient singularities can be realized as two geometric GIT quotients of a non-singular projective variety by a reductive algebraic group. Then, by applying…

We show that a hypersimple unidimensional theory that has a club of reducts, in the partial order of all countable reducts, that are coordinatized in finite rank, is supersimple.

In this paper, we establish a link between the structure theory of the pro-unipotent motivic fundamental group of the projective line minus three points and Diophantine geometry. In particular, we give a p-adic proof of Siegel's theorem.

Some simple facts are proved ruling the Collatz tree and the chains of vertices appearing in it, leading to the reduction of the number of significant elements appearing in the tree. Although the Collatz conjecture remains open, these fact…

We provide a short proof of the 1-dimensional flat chain conjecture.

We provide a complete classification, in the language of weak-combinatorics, of minimal plus-one generated line arrangements in the complex projective plane with double and triple intersection points.

We develop a novel technique, which we call poset splitting, that allows us to solve two open problems regarding minimality of finite models of spaces: the nonexistence of a finite model of the real projective plane with fewer than 13…

In arXive:0705.3912 we studied triple-point defective very ample linear systems on regular surfaces, and we showed that they can only exist if the surface is ruled. In the present paper we show that we can drop the regularity assumption,…

The (partially) ordered set of the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function with positive imaginary parts is considered. The order is the coordinatewise order inherited from $\mathbb{C}$. Some interesting properties regarding the minimal…
