We construct projective moduli spaces for torsion-free sheaves on noncommutative projective planes. These moduli spaces vary smoothly in the parameters describing the noncommutative plane and have good properties analogous to those of…
We give generators for the nef cone and the cone of curves of rational surfaces obtained by blowing-up the complex projective plane at a set of points $\mathcal{B} \cup \mathcal{D}$, where $\mathcal{B}$ is the set of (proper and infinitely…
We study nonlocal minimal surfaces as a new approximation theory for the area functional, and more specifically in the context of Yau's conjecture on the existence of minimal surfaces in closed three-dimensional manifolds. This programme…
We define the nef complexity of a projective variety $X$. This invariant compares $\dim X+\rho(X)$ with the sum of the coefficients of nef partitions of $-K_X$. We prove that the nef complexity is non-negative and it is zero precisely for…
Convolutional Neural Networks have achieved unprecedented success in image classification, recognition, or detection applications. However, their large-scale deployment in embedded devices is still limited by the huge computational…
We construct new examples of immersed minimal surfaces with catenoid ends and finite total curvature, of both genus zero and higher genus. In the genus zero case, we classify all such surfaces with at most $2n+1$ ends, and with symmetry…
A weighted pointed curve consists of a nodal curve and a sequence of marked smooth points, each assigned a number between zero and one. A subset of the marked points may coincide if the sum of the corresponding weights is no greater than…
Given a holomorphic vector bundle $E:EX X$ over a compact K\"ahler manifold, one introduces twisted GW-invariants of $X$ replacing virtual fundamental cycles of moduli spaces of stable maps $f: \Sigma \to X$ by their cap-product with a…
We associate to each toric vector bundle on a toric variety X(Delta) a "branched cover" of the fan Delta together with a piecewise-linear function on the branched cover. This construction generalizes the usual correspondence between toric…
Working over imperfect fields, we give a comprehensive classification of genus-one curves that are regular but not geometrically regular, extending the known case of geometrically reduced curves. The description is given intrinsically, in…
We introduce the notion of pseudo-N\'eron model and give new examples of varieties admitting pseudo-N\'eron models other than Abelian varieties. As an application of pseudo-N\'eron models, given a scheme admitting a finite morphism to an…
The goal of this paper is to study the representation theory of a classical infinite-dimensional Lie algebra - the Lie algebra of vector fields on an N-dimensional torus for N > 1. The case N=1 gives a famous Virasoro algebra (or its…
By means of associated structural invariants, we efficiently construct four biplanes of order 9 - except the one with the smallest automorphism group, that is found by Janko and Trung. The notion of non-transversal vector is introduced…
We study the nef cone of self-products of a curve. When the curve is very general of genus $g>2$, we construct a nontrivial class of self-intersection 0 on the boundary of the nef cone. Up to symmetry, this is the only known nontrivial…
We define a notion of morphism between combinatorial codes, making the class of all combinatorial codes into a category $\mathbf{Code}$. We show that morphisms can be used to remove redundant information from a code, and that morphisms…
In this article we develop a new way of systematically constructing infinitely many families of smooth subvarieties $X$ of any given dimension $m$, $m \geq 3$, and any given codimension in $\mathbb P^N$, embedded by complete subcanonical…
We consider the convex geometry of the cone of nonnegative quadratics over Stanley-Reisner varieties. Stanley-Reisner varieties (which are unions of coordinate planes) are amongst the simplest real projective varieties, so this is…
In this paper, we compute the nef cone and the pseudo-effective cone of $C\times J$ for a smooth projective curve $C$ and its Jacobian variety $J$ such that $C\times J$ has the minimal Picard number. As a consequence, we also compute the…
Working in infinite dimensional linear spaces, we deal with support for closed sets without interior. We generalize the Convexity Theorem for closed sets without interior. Finally we study the infinite dimensional version of Jordan…
A new approach to prove weak convergence of random polytopes on the space of compact convex sets is presented. This is used to show that the profile of the rescaled Schl\"afli random cone of a random conical tessellation generated by $n$…
