We analyze the structure of the algebraic manifolds $Y$ of dimension 3 with $H^i(Y, \Omega^j_Y)=0$ for all $j\geq 0$, $i>0$ and $h^0(Y, {\mathcal{O}}_Y) > 1$, by showing the deformation invariant of some open surfaces. Secondly, we show…

This article is devoted to the generalization of results obtained in 2002 by Jabin, Otto and Perthame. In their article they proved that planar vector fields taking value into the unit sphere of the euclidean norm and satisfying a given…

We consider in this paper an area functional defined on submanifolds of fixed degree immersed into a graded manifold equipped with a Riemannian metric. Since the expression of this area depends on the degree, not all variations are…

Generalizing the star graphs of M\"uller-Stach and Westrich, we describe a class of graphs whose associated graph hypersurface is equipped with a non-trivial torus action. For such graphs, we show that the Euler characteristic of the…

Given a finite collection of $C^1$ vector fields on a $C^2$ manifold which span the tangent space at every point, we consider the question of when there is locally a coordinate system in which these vector fields are $\mathscr{C}^{s+1}$ for…

We extend the classical Fuller index, and use this to prove that for a certain general class of vector fields $X$ on a compact smooth manifold, if a homotopy of smooth non-singular vector fields starting at $X$ has no sky catastrophes as…

We introduce a vector-valued version of a uniform algebra, called the vector-valued function space over a uniform algebra. The diameter two properties of the vector-valued function space over a uniform algebra on an infinite compact…

In this paper we obtain an explicit formula for the number of curves in a compact complex surface $X$ (passing through the right number of generic points), that has up to one node and one singularity of codimension $k$, provided the total…

We establish a gluing theorem for solutions of a Yamabe problem for manifolds with boundary studied by Escobar in the 90's. Given two scalar-flat Riemannian manifolds whose boundary has zero mean curvature and sharing a submanifold $K$, we…

A new $(1,1)$-dimensional super vector bundle which exists on any super Riemann surface is described. Cross-sections of this bundle provide a new class of fields on a super Riemann surface which closely resemble holomorphic functions on a…

Let F be a smooth real manifold with a linear connection in the tangent bundle. How can we extend the coefficients of the connection to bi-differential operators that incorporate the original structure at zero order? Take a constant mapping…

We extend to manifolds of arbitrary dimension the Castelnuovo-de Franchis inequality for surfaces. The proof is based on the theory of Generic Vanishing and higher regularity, and on the Evans-Griffith Syzygy Theorem in commutative algebra.…

The vector space $\V$ generated by the conjugacy classes in the fundamental group of an orientable surface has a natural Lie cobracket $\map{\delta}{\V}{\V\times \V}$. For negatively curved surfaces, $\delta$ can be computed from a geodesic…

Let $M^7$ be a smooth manifold equipped with a $G_2$-structure $\phi$, and $Y^3$ be an closed compact $\phi$-associative submanifold. In \cite{McL}, R. McLean proved that the moduli space $\bm_{Y,\phi}$ of the $\phi$-associative…

The Poincar\'e-Hopf Theorem relates the Euler characteristic of a 2-dimensional compact manifold to the local behavior of smooth vector fields defined on it. However, despite the importance of Filippov vector fields, concerning both their…

In this paper the theory of uniformly convex metric spaces is developed. These spaces exhibit a generalized convexity of the metric from a fixed point. Using a (nearly) uniform convexity property a simple proof of reflexivity is presented…

Let $Y$ be a compact complex manifold embedded in a complex manifold with unitary flat normal bundle. Our interest is in a sort of the linearizability problem of a neighborhood of $Y$. As a higher-codimensional generalization of Ueda's…

A theorem of Grove and Searle directly establishes that positive curvature 2d manifolds M with effective circular symmetry group of dimension 8 or less have positive Euler characteristic X(M): the fixed point set N consists of even…

We prove that the Cauchy problem for parallel null vector fields on smooth Lorentzian manifolds is well posed. The proof is based on the derivation and analysis of suitable hyperbolic evolution equations given in terms of the Ricci tensor…

In the time evolution of fluids, the topologies of fluids can be changed by the creations and annihilations of singular points and by switching combinatorial structures of separatrices. In this paper, to describe the possible generic time…
