Let $X$ be a variety over a finite field. Given an order $R$ in a semi-simple algebra over the rationals and a constructible \'etale sheaf $F$ of $R$-modules over $X$, one can consider a natural non-commutative $L$-function associated with…

We introduce a collection of polynomials $F_N$, associated to each positive integer $N$, whose divisibility properties yield a reformulation of the Goldbach conjecture. While this reformulation certainly does not lead to a resolution of the…

In this short note, a general result concerning the positivity, under some conditions, of the coefficients of a power series is proved. This allows us to answer positively a question raised by Guo (2010) about the sign of the coefficients…

We survey variety theory for modules of finite dimensional Hopf algebras, recalling some definitions and basic properties of support and rank varieties where they are known. We focus specifically on properties known for classes of examples…

We give the first examples of nef line bundles on smooth projective varieties over finite fields which are not semi-ample. More concretely, we find smooth curves on smooth projective surfaces over finite fields such that the normal bundle…

In this paper, we study when positivity conditions of vector bundles are preserved by extension. We prove that an extension of a big (resp. pseudo-effective) line bundle by an ample (resp. a nef) vector bundle is big (resp.…

A class of the Newell-Whitehead-Segel equations (also known as generalized Fisher equations and Newell-Whitehead equations) is studied with Lie and "nonclassical" symmetry points of view. The classifications of Lie reduction operators and…

We classify Fano threefolds with only Gorenstein terminal singularities and Picard number greater than 1 satisfying an additional assumption that the $G$-invariant part of the Weil divisor class group is of rank 1 with respect to an action…

We prove that the direct image of an anti-ample vector bundle is anti-ample under any finite flat morphism of non-singular projective varieties. In the second part we prove some properties of big and nef vector bundles. In particular it is…

Let $X$ be a complex smooth projective variety such that the exterior power of the tangent bundle $\bigwedge^{r} T_X$ is nef for some $1\leq r<\dim X$. We prove that, up to an \'etale cover, $X$ is a Fano fiber space over an Abelian…

We construct exceptional Fano varieties with the smallest known minimal log discrepancies in all dimensions. These varieties are well-formed hypersurfaces in weighted projective space. Their minimal log discrepancies decay doubly…

We use former results on geometric local $\varepsilon$-factors over curves in order to prove a factorization result for the determinant of the cohomology of an $\ell$-adic sheaf over an arbitrary proper scheme over a perfect field of…

Positivity bounds are theoretical constraints on the Wilson coefficients of an effective field theory. These bounds emerge from the requirement that a given effective field theory must be the low-energy limit of a relativistic quantum…

Using a transversality argument, we demonstrate the positivity of certain coefficients in the equivariant cohomology and K-theory of a generalized flag manifold. This strengthens earlier equivariant positivity theorems (of Graham and…

We establish new general etale versions of theorems of Barth and Sommese. Respectively, we compute the lower etale cohomology of closed subvarieties of $P^N$ of small codimensions and of their preimages with respect to proper morphisms…

In this paper, we prove a non-commutative version of the Weyl-von Neumann theorem for representations of unital, separable AH algebras into countably decomposable, semifinite, properly infinite, von Neumann factors, where an AH algebra…

We provide supplements and open problems related to structure theorems for maximal rationally connected fibrations of certain positively curved projective varieties, including smooth projective varieties with semi-positive holomorphic…

We show that the local-global divisibility in commutative algebraic groups defined over number fields can be tested on sets of primes of arbitrary small density, i.e. stable and persistent sets. We also give a new description of the…

We give some basics about homological algebra of difference representations. We consider both the difference-discrete and the difference-rational case. We define the corresponding cohomology theories and show the existence of spectral…

We survey results concerning behavior of positivity of line bundles and possible vanishing theorems in positive characteristic. We also try to describe variation of positivity in mixed characteristic. These problems are very much related to…
