We classify rational surfaces for which the image of the automorphisms group in the group of linear transformations of the Picard group is the largest possible. This answers a question raised by Arthur Coble in 1928, and can be rephrased in…

Under certain conditions, we prove that the set of zeros of an elliptic net forms an Abelian group. We present two applications of this fact. Firstly we give a generalization of a theorem of Ayad on valuations of division polynomials in the…

We show that uniform lattices in some semi-simple groups (notably complex ones) admit Anosov surface subgroups. This result has a quantitative version: we introduce a notion, called $K$-Sullivan maps, which generalizes the notion of…

We study compact stable embedded minimal surfaces whose boundary is given by two collections of closed smooth Jordan curves in close planes of Euclidean 3-space. Our main result is a classification of these minimal surfaces, under certain…

We prove that the groupoid of transformations of rigid structures on surfaces has a finite presentation as a 2-groupoid establishing a result first conjectured by G.Moore and N.Seiberg. An alternative proof was given by B.Bakalov and…

This paper, together with a forthcoming paper by the author and Seitz, proves the Margulis-Platonov conjecture concerning the normal subgroup structure of algebraic groups over number fields, in the case of inner forms of anisotropic groups…

In this note, we prove that any Jordan derivation on the generalized matrix ring $T_n(R,M)$ is a derivation. This extends some well-known results of this branch due to Bre\v{s}ar et al. in the cited literature.

We study the order of automorphism groups of cyclic covering fibrations of a ruled surface. Arakawa and later Chen studied it for hyperelliptic fibrations and gave the upper bound. The purpose of present paper is to pursue the analog for…

We prove that Alexandrov's conjecture relating the area and diameter of a convex surface holds for the surface of a general ellipsoid. This is a direct consequence of a more general result which estimates the deviation from the optimal…

Given an oriented surface of positive genus with finitely many punctures, we classify the finite orbits of the mapping class group action on the moduli space of semisimple complex special linear two dimensional representations of the…

The Farrell-Jones Fibered Isomorphism Conjecture for the stable topological pseudoisotopy theory has been proved for several classes of groups. For example for discrete subgroups of Lie groups, virtually poly-infinite cyclic groups, Artin…

This paper aims to establish the geometrical finiteness for the natural isometric actions of (birational) automorphism groups on the hyperbolic spaces for K3 surfaces, Enriques surfaces, Coble surfaces, and irreducible symplectic varieties.…

S. Bigelow proved that the braid groups are linear. That is, there is a faithful representation of the braid group into the general linear group of some field. Using this, we deduce from previously known results that the mapping class group…

We compute and provide a detailed description on the Jordan constants of the multiplicative subgroup of quaternion algebras over number fields of small degree. As an application, we determine the Jordan constants of the multiplicative…

We quantify Peter Scott's Theorem that surface groups are locally extended residually finite (LERF) in terms of geometric data. In the process, we will quantify another result by Scott that any closed geodesic in a surface lifts to an…

In \cite{BAMU}, an ergodic theorem \`a la Birkhoff-von Neumann for the action of the fundamental group of a compact negatively curved manifold on the boundary of its universal cover is proved. A quick corollary is the irreducibility of the…

We complete the classification of the pointed Hopf algebras with finite Gelfand-Kirillov dimension that are liftings of the Jordan plane over a nilpotent-by-finite group, correcting the statement in arXiv:1512.09271.

We compute the exact values of the Jordan constants of abelian surfaces over finite fields.

We show that a very general Jacobian elliptic surface is determined by its polarized rational Hodge structure, subject to various constraints on the irregularity and the geometric genus.

We prove a monotone Sobolev extension theorem for maps to Jordan domains with rectifiable boundary in metric surfaces of locally finite Hausdorff 2-measure. This is then used to prove a uniformization result for compact metric surfaces by…
