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 use hypersurface support to classify thick (two-sided) ideals in the stable categories of representations for several families of finite-dimensional integrable Hopf algebras: bosonized quantum complete intersections, quantum Borels in…
We consider mapping class groups \Gamma(M) = pi_0 Diff(M fix \partial M) of smooth compact simply connected oriented 4-manifolds M bounded by a collection of 3-spheres. We show that if M contains CP^2 (with either orientation) as a…
We describe the mod $p^r$ pro $K$-groups $\{K_n(A/I^s)/p^r\}_s$ of a regular local $\mathbb F_p$-algebra $A$ modulo powers of a suitable ideal $I$, in terms of logarithmic Hodge-Witt groups, by proving pro analogues of the theorems of…
Gaudin subalgebras are abelian Lie subalgebras of maximal dimension spanned by generators of the Kohno-Drinfeld Lie algebra t_n. We show that Gaudin subalgebras form a variety isomorphic to the moduli space of stable curves of genus zero…
We propose a generalization of the so-called rational map ansatz on the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^3$, for any compact simple Lie group $G$ such that $G/{\widehat K}\otimes U(1)$ is an Hermitian symmetric space, for some subgroup…
We analyze an algorithm for computing a skew-Hermitian logarithm of a unitary matrix. This algorithm is very easy to implement using standard software and it works well even for unitary matrices with no spectral conditions assumed. Certain…
The purpose of this note is to study the Maulik-Okounkov $K-$theoretic stable basis for the Hilbert scheme of points on the plane, which depends on a "slope" $m \in \mathbb{R}$. When $m = \frac ab$ is rational, we study the change of stable…
For a holomorphic vector bundle over a compact K\"ahler orbifold, the slope stability of the bundle is shown to be equivalent to the existence of a Hermitian-Einstein metric or to the properness of a certain functional introduced by…
The Gieseker-Uhlenbeck morphism maps the Gieseker moduli space of stable rank-2 sheaves on a smooth projective surface to the Uhlenbeck compactification, and is a generalization of the Hilbert-Chow morphism for Hilbert schemes of points.…
We consider "spectral" matrix-functions for Hermitian matrices, where the novelty is that the function applied to the spectrum is allowed to be a vector-field rather than a scalar function (a.k.a isotropic matrix functions). We prove first…
We estimate the Hopf degree for smooth maps $f$ from $\mathbb{S}^{4n-1}$ to $\mathbb{S}^{2n}$ in the fractional Sobolev space. Namely we show that for $s \in [1 - \frac{1}{4n}, 1]$ \[ \left |{\rm deg}_H(f)\right | \lesssim…
This paper solves the following problem about Hermitian matrices related to the theory of $2$-structures:\emph{ }Let $n$ be a positive integer and $k$ be an integer with $k\in \{3,\ldots,n-3\}$. Characterize the Hermitian matrices $A$ such…
We investigate various structures associated with the hyperbolic Markov and homological spectra of a pseudoAnosov map $\phi$ on a surface. Each unstable eigenvalue of the action of $\phi$ on first cohomolgy yields an eigen-cocycle that is…
In this article, we investigate the regularity for certain elliptic systems without a $L^2$-antisymmetric structure. As applications, we prove some $\epsilon$-regularity theorems for weakly harmonic maps from the unit ball $B= B(m) \subset…
For a 0-dimensional scheme $\mathbb{X}$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ over a perfect field $K$, we first embed the homogeneous coordinate ring $R$ into its truncated integral closure $\widetilde{R}$. Then we use the corresponding map from the module of…
We prove that the homology of the mapping class groups of non-orientable surfaces stabilizes with the genus of the surface. Combining our result with recent work of Madsen and Weiss, we obtain that the classifying space of the stable…
Quantum splines are curves in a Hilbert space or, equivalently, in the corresponding Hilbert projective space, which generalize the notion of Riemannian cubic splines to the quantum domain. In this paper, we present a generalization of this…
We study K-stability properties of a smooth Fano variety X using non-Archimedean geometry, specifically the Berkovich analytification of X with respect to the trivial absolute value on the ground field. More precisely, we view…
This paper introduces an algebra structure on the part of the skein module of an arbitrary $3$-manifold $M$ spanned by links that represent $0$ in $H_1(M;\mathbb{Z}_2)$ when the value of the parameter used in the Kauffman bracket skein…
