We prove a version of the well-known Denjoy-Ahlfors theorem about the number of asymptotic values of an entire function for properly immersed minimal surfaces of arbitrary codimension in R^N. The finiteness of the number of ends is proved…

A basic problem in the study of algebraic morphisms is to determine which sets can be realised as the image of an endomorphism of affine space. This paper extends the results previously obtained by the first author on the question of…

Let k be an algebraically closed field complete with respect to a non-Archimedean absolute value of arbitrary characteristic. Let D_1,...,D_n be effective nef divisors intersecting transversally in an n-dimensional nonsingular projective…

In this paper we prove the following theorem. Let $f$ be a dominant endomorphism of a smooth projective surface over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$. If there is no nonconstant invariant rational function under $f$, then…

We present an explicit calculation of an Okounkov body associated to an algebraic variety. This is used to derive a formula for transfinite diameter on the variety. We relate this formula to a recent result of D. Witt Nystrom.

We use presentations of the Cox rings of projectivized toric vector bundles and elements of matroid theory to compute Newton-Okounkov bodies, effective cones, and nef cones of these spaces. As an application we analyze the Fano property and…

For an algebraic function field $F/K$ and a discrete valuation $v$ of $K$ with perfect residue field $k$, we bound the number of discrete valuations on $F$ extending $v$ whose residue fields are algebraic function fields of genus zero over…

We propose a linear version of the weighted bounded negativity conjecture. It considers a smooth projective surface $X$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero and predicts the existence of a common lower bound on…

We determine the cone of nef divisors on the Igusa and Voronoi compactifications of the moduli space of principally polarised abelian 4-folds. We also show that the canonical bundle on the Igusa compactification of A_4(n) is ample for n at…

A Newton-Okounkov body is a convex body constructed from a projective variety with a globally generated line bundle and with a higher rank valuation on the function field, which gives a systematic method of constructing toric degenerations…

We prove that any smooth projective geometrically connected non-isotrivial curve of genus $g\ge 2$ over a one-dimensional function field of any characteristic has at most $16g^2+32g+124$ torsion points for any Abel-Jacobi embedding of the…

A weak version of Birkhoff's generalization of the Perron-Frobenius theorem states that every endomorphism of a finite-dimensional real vector that leaves invariant a non-degenerate closed convex cone has an eigenvector in that cone. Here,…

In this paper, we obtain the best possible value of the absolute constant $C$ such that for every isotropic convex body $K \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$ the following inequality (which was proved by Klartag and reduces the hyperplane conjecture…

It is proved that a convex hypersurface in a Riemannian manifold of sectional curvature at least k is an Alexandrov's space of curvature at least k. This theorem provides an optimal lower curvature bound for an older theorem of Buyalo.

A central problem in discrete geometry, known as Hadwiger's covering problem, asks what the smallest natural number $N\left(n\right)$ is such that every convex body in ${\mathbb R}^{n}$ can be covered by a union of the interiors of at most…

A fundamental result in structural graph theory states that every graph with large average degree contains a large complete graph as a minor. We prove this result with the extra property that the minor is small with respect to the order of…

We describe the closed cone of moving curves of smooth Fano three- and fourfolds by giving finitely many equations that cut out the cone. The equations are induced by the exceptional divisors of divisorial contractions and by nef divisors…

This paper is devoted to the complete classification of space curves under affine transformations in the view of Cartan's theorem. Spivak has introduced the method but has not found the invariants. Furthermore, for the first time, we…

Let $X\subset\A^{2r}$ be a real curve embedded into an even-dimensional affine space. In the main result of this paper, we characterise when the r-th secant variety to $X$ is an irreducible component of the algebraic boundary of the convex…

We generalize Angenent's shrinking tori \cite{Angenent1992} to minimal $n$-dimensional tori embedded in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ equipped with the metric $$g=e^{-\frac{f(\sum^{n+1}_{i=1}x_{i}^{2})}{2n}}\sum^{n+1}_{i=1}dx^{2}_{i},$$ where $f$ is a…
