For a Riemannian manifold $(N,g)$, we construct a scalar flat metric $G$ in the tangent bundle $TN$. It is locally conformally flat if and only if either, $N$ is a 2-dimensional manifold or, $(N,g)$ is a real space form. It is also shown…

We isolate a class of smooth rational cubic fourfolds X containing a plane whose associated quadric surface bundle does not have a rational section. This is equivalent to the nontriviality of the Brauer class of the even Clifford algebra…

We present a class of reductions of M\"obius type for the lattice equations known as Q1, Q2, and Q3 from the ABS list. The deautonomised form of one particular reduction of Q3 is shown to exist on the $A_1^{(1)}$ surface which belongs to…

We prove a generalization of the topological Tverberg theorem. One special instance of our general theorem is the following: Let $\Delta$ denote the 8-dimensional simplex viewed as an abstract simplicial complex, and suppose that its…

In this note it is shown that, given a smooth minimal complex surface of general type S with p_g(S)=0, K^2_S=3, for which the bicanonical map is a morphism, then the degree of the bicanonical map of S is not equal to 3. This completes our…

Motivated by the question of rationality of cubic fourfolds, we show that a cubic X has an associated K3 surface in the sense of Hassett if and only if the variety F of lines on X is birational to a moduli space of sheaves on a K3 surface,…

The well-known fact that $S^1$, $S^3$ and $S^7$ are parallelizable manifolds admitting flat connections is revisited. The role of torsion in the construction of those flat connections is made explicit, and the possibilities allowed by…

In this article we determine exactly which line bundles on elliptic ruled surface X are normally presented. In particular we see that numerical classes of normally presented divisors form a convex set. (recall that Num(X) is generated by…

We show that if $(X,Y)$ is a simple normal crossings log Calabi--Yau pair, then there is a real torus of dimension equal to the codimension of the smallest stratum of $Y$ which can be used to construct $W_{2k-1}H^k(X \setminus…

We prove that the restriction map from the subspace of regular points of the holonomy perturbed SU(2) traceless flat moduli space of a tangle in a 3-manifold to the traceless flat moduli space of its boundary marked surface is a Lagrangian…

Let $P_N(R)$ be the space of all real polynomials in $N$ variables with the usual inner product $<, >$ on it, given by integrating over the unit sphere. We start by deriving an explicit combinatorial formula for the bilinear form…

Let $\mathfrak B_g$ denote the moduli space of primitively polarized $K3$ surfaces $(S,H)$ of genus $g$ over $\mathbb C$. It is well-known that $\mathfrak B_g$ is irreducible and that there are only finitely many rational curves in $|H|$…

In this work we introduce a new set of invariants associated to the linear strands of a minimal free resolution of a $\mathbb{Z}$-graded ideal $I\subseteq R=\Bbbk[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$. We also prove that these invariants satisfy some…

Motivated by toric geometry, we lift machinery for understanding syzygies of curves in projective space to the setting of products of projective spaces. Using this machinery, we show an analogue of an influential result of Gruson, Peskine,…

We search for principal ideals. As a sample, let $R$ be a strongly-normal, almost-factorial, and complete-intersection local ring with a prime ideal $P$ of height one. If $depth(R/ P)\geq dim R-2$, we show $P$ is principal. As an immediate…

This paper gives sharp linear bounds on the genus of a normal surface in a triangulated compact, orientable 3--manifold in terms of the quadrilaterals in its cell decomposition---different bounds arise from varying hypotheses on the surface…

A map from a manifold to a Euclidean space is said to be k-regular if the image of any distinct k points are linearly in- dependent. For k-regular maps on manifolds, lower bounds of the dimension of the ambient Euclidean space have been…

We give a full classification of higher order parallel surfaces in three-dimensional homogeneous spaces with four-dimensional isometry group, i.e. in the so-called Bianchi-Cartan-Vranceanu family. This gives a positive answer to a…

We study analytic surfaces in 3-dimensional Euclidean space containing two circular arcs through each point. The problem of finding such surfaces traces back to the works of Darboux from XIXth century. We reduce finding all such surfaces to…

A well-known result of Walsh states that if $\mathcal T^*$ is an ideal triangulation of an atoroidal, acylindrical, irreducible, compact 3-manifold with torus boundary components, then every properly embedded, two-sided, incompressible…
