In this paper, we have proved results similar to Tychonoff's Theorem on embedding a space of functions with the topology of pointwise convergence into the Tychonoff product of topological spaces, but applied to the function space $C(X,Y)$…

Let X be a non-singular algebraic curve of genus at least 3 and let M denote the moduli space of stable vector bundles of rank n and fixed determinant of degree d with n and d coprime. For any semistable bundle E over X, we can pull E back…

We establish versions of Szeg\H{o}'s distance formula and Widom's theorem on invertibility of (a family of) Toeplitz operators in a class of finite codimension subalgebras of uniform algebras, obtained by imposing a finite number of linear…

The present work introduces curvature-based rejection sampling (CURS). This is a method for sampling from a general class of probability densities defined on Riemannian manifolds. It can be used to sample from any probability density which…

For an irreducible subvariety Z in an algebraic group G we define a nonnegative integer gdeg(Z) as the degree, in a certain sense, of the Gauss map of Z. It can be regarded as a substitution for the intersection index of the conormal bundle…

Let H be a reductive subgroup of a reductive group G over an algebraically closed field k. We consider the action of H on G^n, the n-fold Cartesian product of G with itself, by simultaneous conjugation. We give a purely algebraic…

Let $i:X\hookrightarrow Y$ be a closed embedding of smooth algebraic varieties. Denote by $N$ the normal bundle of $X$ in $Y$. We describe the construction of two Lie-type structures on the shifted bundle $N[-1]$ which encode the…

In this article, we study the Heller relative $K_{0}$ group of the map $\mathbb{P}_{X}^{r} \to \mathbb{P}_{S}^{r},$ where $X$ and $S$ are quasi-projective schemes over a commutative ring. More precisely, we prove that the projective bundle…

Given Y a non-compact manifold or orbifold, we define a natural subspace of the cohomology of Y called the narrow cohomology. We show that despite Y being non-compact, there is a well-defined and non-degenerate pairing on this subspace. The…

Let $A$ be an abelian sheaf on a site $X_{\tau}$ on which we have an action of a finite group $G$. Given an $A$-torsor (respectively a gerbe banded by $A$), we would like to know under what conditions it is induced from an $A^G$-torsor…

Given a Serre class $\mathcal{S}$ of modules, we compare the containment of the Koszul homology, Ext modules, Tor modules, local homology, and local cohomology in $\mathcal{S}$ up to a given bound $s \geq 0$. As some applications, we give a…

We present a probabilistic algorithm to test if a homogeneous polynomial ideal $I$ defining a scheme $X$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ is radical using Segre classes and other geometric notions from intersection theory. Its worst case complexity…

Let $\mathcal C$ be a class of topological semigroups. A semigroup $X$ is called (1) $\mathcal C$-$closed$ if $X$ is closed in every topological semigroup $Y\in\mathcal C$ containing $X$ as a discrete subsemigroup, (2) $ideally$ $\mathcal…

A decomposition theorem is established for a class of closed Riemannian submanifolds immersed in a space form of constant sectional curvature. In particular, it is shown that if $M$ has nonnegative sectional curvature and admits a Codazzi…

The result of Siegel that the Tamagawa number of $SL_r$ over a function field is 1 has an expression purely in terms of vector bundles on a curve, which is known as the Siegel formula. We prove an analogous formula for vector bundles with…

We prove results generalizing the classical Riemann Singularity Theorem to the case of integral, singular curves. The main result is a computation of the multiplicity of the theta divisor of an integral, nodal curve at an arbitrary point.…

The modular variety of non singular and complete hyperelliptic curves with level-two structure of genus 3 is a 5-dimensional quasi projective variety which admits several standard compactifications. The first one, X, comes from the…

In this paper exterior products are used to define operations and characteristic classes with values in the K-theory of an abelian category with tensor and exterior products. We apply the general construction to define Chern and Segre…

Supersymmetric heterotic string models, built from a Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ endowed with a stable vector bundle $V$, usually lead to an anomaly mismatch between $c_2(V)$ and $c_2(X)$; this leads to the question whether the difference can…

We introduce a new family of tautological relations of the moduli space of stable curves of genus $g$. These relations are obtained by computing the Poincar\'e-dual class of empty loci in the Hodge bundle. We use these relations to obtain a…
