We review several results related to the characterization of polyhedra in hyperbolic 3-space. In particular we present Rivin's theorem that gives a characterization of compact convex hyperbolic polyhedra, and Hodgson's proof of the Adreev's…

Building upon works of Hironaka, Bierstone-Milman, Villamayor and Wlodarczyk, we give an a priori estimate for the complexity of the simplified Hironaka algorithm. As a consequence of this result, we show that there exists canonical…

We design new tools to study variants of Total Dual Integrality. As an application, we obtain a geometric characterization of Total Dual Integrality for the case where the associated polyhedron is non-degenerate. We also give sufficient…

We prove the existence of resolution of singularities for arbitrary (not necessarily reduced or irreducible) excellent two-dimensional schemes, via permissible blow-ups. The resolution is canonical, and functorial with respect to…

We study homological properties of a locally complete intersection ring by importing facts from homological algebra over exterior algebras. One application is showing that the thick subcategories of the bounded derived category of a locally…

It is proved that a noetherian commutative local ring A containing a field is regular if there is a complex M of free A-modules with the following properties: M_i=0 for i not in [0,dim A]; the homology of M has finite length; H_0(M)…

We study the completion of a group relative to a Zariski dense representation in a reductive algebraic group over a field $k$. The characteristic zero case was worked out previously by R. Hain; we extend his results to arbitrary…

For a field $E$ of characteristic different from $2$ and cohomological $2$-dimension one, quadratic forms over the rational function field $E(X)$ are studied. A characterisation in terms of polynomials in $E[X]$ is obtained for having that…

The face ring of a simplicial complex modulo m generic linear forms is shown to have finite local cohomology if and only if the link of every face of dimension m or more is `nonsingular', i.e., has the homology of a wedge of spheres of the…

Let $E/F$ be an unramified extension of non-archimedean local fields of residual characteristic different than $2$. We provide a simple geometric proof of a variation of a result of Y. Hironaka. Namely we prove that the module…

Suppose $M^{n+1}$ is a complex manifold and K is a hypersurface with isolated singularities. Let $\omega$ be a holomorphic form on $M\setminus K$ with the first order pole on K. The Leray residue of such form gives an element in the n-th…

Distinctive characteristics of Iwanaga--Gorenstein rings are typically understood through their intrinsic symmetry. We show that several of those that pertain to the Gorenstein global dimensions carry over to the one-sided situation, even…

We give a combinatorial algorithm for equivariant embedded resolution of singularities of a toric variety defined over a perfect field. The algorithm is realized by a finite succession of blowings-up with smooth invariant centres that…

In this article we introduce the notion of Polyhedral Kahler manifolds, even dimensional polyhedral manifolds with unitary holonomy. We concentrate on the 4-dimensional case, prove that such manifolds are smooth complex surfaces, and…

A conjecture of Hirose, Watanabe, and Yoshida offers a characterization of when a standard graded strongly $F$-regular ring is Gorenstein, in terms of an $F$-pure threshold. We prove this conjecture under the additional hypothesis that the…

The aim of this paper is to explain the construction by H. Hironaka [H.61] of a holomorphic (in fact "algebraic") family of compact complex manifolds parametrized by $\C$ such for all $s \in \C\setminus \{0\}$ the fiber is projective, but…

Let B be a commutative $\mathbb{Z}$-graded domain of characteristic zero. An element f of B is said to be cylindrical if it is nonzero, homogeneous of nonzero degree, and such that $B_{(f)}$ is a polynomial ring in one variable over a…

Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of residue characteristic $p$, $P$ be a parabolic subgroup of $G$, and $R$ be a commutative ring. When $R$ is artinian, $p$ is nilpotent in $R$, and…

Let R be an unramified regular local ring of mixed characteristic, D an Azumaya R-algebra, K the fraction field of R, Nrd the reduced norm homomorphism for the Azumaya R-algebra D. Let a be a unit in R. It is proved the following: suppose…

Let $RG$ denote the group ring of the torsion group $G$ over a commutative ring $R$ with identity. In this paper we present proofs of some statements that appear without to be proved in the literature. We establish the valid implications…
