Given a finite set of points in general position in the plane or sphere, we count the number of ways to separate those points using two types of circles: circles through three of the points, and circles through none of the points (up to an…

This work is a continuation of the recent study by the authors on approximation theory over the sphere and the ball. The main results define new Sobolev spaces on these domains and study polynomial approximations for functions in these…

The solutions of the discrete Painlev\'e equation I were constructed in terms of elliptic and hyperelliptic $\psi$ functions for algebraic curves of genera one and two. For the case of genus two, there appear higher order difference…

A topology is defined on the mapping class group of a compact connected orientable surface. It is shown that a notion of "genericity" on subsets of the mapping class group arises from this definition. Many plausible results follow from this…

We consider the action of $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ on a vector bundle $\mathbf{H}$ preserving an ergodic probability measure $\nu$ on the base $X$. Under an irreducibility assumption on this action, we prove that if $\hat\nu$ is any lift of $\nu$…

We study a simple lattice model with local symmetry, whose construction is based on a crossed module of finite groups. Its dynamical degrees of freedom are associated both to links and faces of a four-dimensional lattice. In special limits…

We consider generalizations of Szpiro's classical discriminant conjecture to hyperelliptic curves over a number field $K$, and to smooth, projective and geometrically connected curves $X$ over $K$ of genus at least one. The main results…

Do and Norbury found a so-called differential relation which relates the volume of the moduli space of singular surface with a cone point to that of a smooth surface obtained by forgetting the cone point. Their procedure is valid for cone…

We view Dolbeault-Morse-Novikov cohomology H^{p,q}_\eta(X) as the cohomology of the sheaf \Omega_{X,\eta}^p of \eta-holomorphic p-forms and give several bimeromorphic invariants. Analogue to Dolbeault cohomology, we establish the…

We give a comparative description of the Poisson structures on the moduli spaces of flat connections on real surfaces and holomorphic Poisson structures on the moduli spaces of holomorphic bundles on complex surfaces. The symplectic leaves…

In this paper we give two different proofs of Bobenko and Springborn's theorem of circle pattern: there exists a hyperbolic (or Euclidean) circle pattern with proscribed intersection angles and cone angles on a cellular decomposed surface…

We use the homological algebra context to give a more rigorous proof of Polyakov's basic variational formula for loop spaces.

In a previous paper we constructed $\textit{higher}$ theta series for unitary groups over function fields, and conjectured their modularity properties. Here we prove the generic modularity of the $\ell$-adic realization of higher theta…

We address the response of a random heteropolymer to preferential solvation of certain monomer types at the globule-solvent interface. For each set of monomers that can comprise the molecule's surface, we represent the ensemble of allowed…

Toric geometry provides a bridge between the theory of polytopes and algebraic geometry: one can associate to each lattice polytope a polarized toric variety. In this thesis we explore this correspondence to classify smooth lattice…

We construct an action of a polynomial ring on the colored sl(2) link homology of Cooper-Krushkal, over which this homology is finitely generated. We define a new, related link homology which is finite dimensional, extends to tangles, and…

We describe, in the general setting of closed cone fields, the set of causal functions which can be approximated by smooth Lyapunov. We derive several consequences on causality theory. Dans le contexte g\'en\'eral des champs de cones…

A cyclic cover over the Riemann sphere branched at four points inherits a natural flat structure from the "pillow" flat structure on the basic sphere. We give an explicit formula for all individual Lyapunov exponents of the Hodge bundle…

Consider all moduli points corresponding with polarized abelian varieties in characteristic p such that the associated quasi-polarized p-divisible group is geometrically isomorphic with a given one. This defines a subset C of the moduli…

We present a shift theorem for solutions of the Poisson equation in a finite planar cone (and hence also on plane polygons) for Dirichlet, Neumann, and mixed boundary conditions. The range in which the shift theorem holds depends on the…
