By the fundamental work of Griffiths one knows that, under suitable assumption, homological and algebraic equivalence do not coincide for a general hypersurface section of a smooth projective variety $Y$. In the present paper we prove the…
The first and second Griffiths inequalities are proved for some classical O($n$)-invariant spin models (including Euclidean quantum field theories) for any $n$. The proof assumes a certain condition on an integral transform of the measure.…
Gorenstein isolated quotient singularities of odd prime dimension are cyclic. In the case where the dimension is bigger than 1 and is not an odd prime number, then there exist Gorenstein isolated non-cyclic quotient singularities.
Using N=2 Landau-Ginzburg theories, we examine the recent conjectures relating the SU(3) WZW modular invariants, finite subgroups of SU(3) and Gorenstein singularities. All isolated three-dimensional Gorenstein singularities do not appear…
We revisit the study of $G_2$-structures with special torsion, and isolated singularities. Many of the known examples with conical singularities admit additional symmetries, and we describe circle-invariant $G_2$-structures in this context.…
Using the new diffeomorphism invariants of Seiberg and Witten, a uniqueness theorem is proved for Einstein metrics on compact quotients of irreducible 4-dimensional symmetric spaces of non-compact type. The proof also yields a Riemannian…
We show that a problem by Yau can not be true in general. The counterexamples are constructed based on the recent work of Wu and Zheng.
In this note we extend to arbitrary dimensions a couple of results due respectively to Mattei-Moussu and to Camara-Scardua in dimension 2. We also provide examples of singular foliations having a Siegel-type singularity and answering in the…
In this paper, we study the Calabi-Yau conjectures for complete minimal hypersurfaces $\Sigma^{n}\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ in dimensions $n\ge 3$. These conjectures ask whether a complete minimal hypersurface must be unbounded, and more…
In the case of F-theory compactifications on genus-one fibrations without section there are naturally appearing discrete symmetries, which we argue to be associated to geometrically massive U(1) gauge symmetries. These discrete symmetries…
We consider the relation between geometrically finite groups and their limit sets in infinite-dimensional hyperbolic space. Specifically, we show that a rigidity theorem of Susskind and Swarup ('92) generalizes to infinite dimensions, while…
As is well known, the "usual discrepancy" is defined for a normal Q-Gorenstein variety. By using this discrepancy we can define a canonical singularity and a log canonical singularity. In the same way, by using a new notion, Mather-Jacobian…
We prove Griffiths inequalities for spins in n>1 dimensions with no interaction.
Let $X$ be a compact connected strongly pseudoconvex $CR$ manifold of real dimension $2n-1$ in $\mathbb{C}^{N}$. For $n\ge 3$, Yau solved the complex Plateau problem of hypersurface type by checking a bunch of Kohn-Rossi cohomology groups…
We study the Penrose inequality and its rigidity for metrics with singular sets. Our result could be viewed as a complement of Theorem 1.1 of Lu and Miao (J. Funct. Anal. 281, 2021) and Theorem 1.2 of Shi, Wang and Yu (Math. Z. 291, 2019),…
We show that the Fr\"oberg conjecture holds in the second non-trivial degree for an ideal generated by generic forms of degree $d>2$. We also show that the conjecture is true up to degree $2d-1$ provided that the number of variables is…
An old conjecture of Durfee 1978 bounds the ratio of two basic invariants of complex isolated complete intersection surface singularities: the Milnor number and the singularity (or geometric) genus. We give a counterexample for the case of…
We show the rigid singularity theorem, that is, a globally hyperbolic spacetime satisfying the strong energy condition and containing past trapped sets, either is timelike geodesically incomplete or splits isometrically as space $\times$…
We prove that the finitistic dimension conjecture, the Gorenstein Symmetry Conjecture, the Wakamatsu-tilting conjecture and the generalized Nakayama conjecture hold for artin algebras which can be realized as endomorphism algebras of…
We prove that finite-dimensional Jacobian algebras associated with non-degenerate quivers with potentials satisfy the stable Brauer-Thrall II' conjecture. In particular, this implies that the brick Brauer-Thrall II' conjecture (also known…
