Many classical results in algebraic geometry arise from investigating some extremal behaviors that appear among projective varieties not lying on any hypersurface of fixed degree. We study two numerical invariants attached to such…
We prove that for generic metrics on a 3-sphere, the minimal surface obtained from the min-max procedure of Simon-Smith has index 1. We prove an analogous result for minimal surfaces arising from strongly irreducible Heegaard sweepouts in…
We present integral representations of solutions to division problems involving matrices of polynomials in several complex variables. We also find estimates of the polynomial degree of the solutions by means of careful degree estimates of…
It is natural to ask how many isotopy classes of embedded essential surfaces lie in a given 3-manifold. The first bounds on the number of such surfaces were exponential, using normal surfaces. More recently, by restricting to alternating…
We consider an entire graph S of a continuous real function over (N-1)-dimensional Euclidean space with N larger than or equal to 3. Let D be a domain in N-dimensional Euclidean space with S as a boundary. Consider in D the heat flow with…
In this note, we initiate a study of the finite-dimensional representation theory of a class of algebras that correspond to noncommutative deformations of compact surfaces of arbitrary genus. Low dimensional representations are investigated…
We provide new general methods in the calculus of variations for the anisotropic Plateau problem in arbitrary dimension and codimension. A new direct proof of Almgren's 1968 existence result is presented; namely, we produce from a class of…
Monodromy in analytic families of smooth complex surfaces yields groups of isotopy classes of orientation preserving diffeomorphisms for each family member X. For all deformation classes of minimal elliptic surfaces with p_g>q=0, we…
We classify hyperbolic polynomials in two real variables that admit a transitive action on some component of their hyperbolic level sets. Such surfaces are called special homogeneous surfaces, and they are equipped with a natural Riemannian…
We consider Lie minimal surfaces, the critical points of the simplest Lie sphere invariant energy, in Riemannian space forms. These surfaces can be characterized via their Euler-Lagrange equations, which take the form of differential…
We give a general method for proving quantum lower bounds for problems with small range. Namely, we show that, for any symmetric problem defined on functions $f:\{1, ..., N\}\to\{1, ..., M\}$, its polynomial degree is the same for all…
The purpose of this paper is to present a syatemic study of some familes of higher-order Euler numbers and polynomials. In particular, by using the basis property of higher-order Euler polynomials for the space of polynomials of degree less…
We add two new 1-parameter families to the short list of known embedded triply periodic minimal surfaces of genus 4 in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Both surfaces can be tiled by minimal pentagons with two straight segments and three planar symmetry…
We apply Nadel's method of multiplier ideal sheaves to show that every complex del Pezzo surface of degree at most six whose automorphism group acts without fixed points has a K\"ahler-Einstein metric. In particular, all del Pezzo surfaces…
Finding roots of univariate polynomials is one of the fundamental tasks of numerics, and there is still a wide gap between root finders that are well understood in theory and those that perform well in practice. We investigate the root…
In this paper we investigate weak polynomial identities for the Weyl algebra $\mathsf{A}_1$ over an infinite field of arbitrary characteristic. Namely, we describe weak polynomial identities of the minimal degree, which is three, and of…
In characteristic $p>0$ and for $q$ a power of $p$, we compute the number of nonplanar rational curves of arbitrary degrees on a smooth Hermitian surface of degree $q+1$ under the assumption that the curves have a parametrization given by…
An extension of the classic Enneper-Weierstrass representation for conformally parametrised surfaces in multi-dimensional spaces is presented. This is based on low dimensional CP^1 and CP^2 sigma models which allow the study of the constant…
We find the first examples of triply periodic minimal surfaces of which the intrinsic symmetries are all of horizontal type.
We present a covariant formulation of the Gauss-Weingarten equations and the Gauss-Mainardi-Codazzi equations for surfaces in 3-dimensional curved spaces. We derive a coordinate invariant condition on the first and second fundamental form…
