In this paper we continue the study of algebraic fundamentale group of minimal surfaces of general type S satisfying K_S^2<3\chi(S). We show that, if K_S^2= 3\chi(S)-1 and the algebraic fundamental group of S has order 8, then S is a…
Global intersection theories for smooth algebraic varieties via products in {\it appropriate}\, Poincar\'e duality theories are obtained. We assume given a (twisted) cohomology theory $H^*$ having a cup product structure and we let consider…
It is shown that a compact $n$-dimensional K\"ahler manifold with $\frac{n}{2}$-positive Calabi curvature operator has the rational cohomology of complex projective space. For even $n,$ this is sharp in the sense that the complex quadric…
We consider the polynomial algebra $\mathbb{C}[\mathbf{z}]:=\mathbb{C}[z_1,\,z_2,\,z_3]$ and the polynomial $f:=z_1^3+z_2^3+z_3^3+3qz_1z_2z_3$, where $q\in \mathbb{C}$. Our aim is to compute the Hochschild homology and cohomology of the…
In this article, we prove the Hodge conjecture for a desingularization of the moduli space of rank 2, semi-stable, torsion-free sheaves with fixed odd degree determinant over a very general irreducible nodal curve of genus at least 2. We…
We compute the algebraic $K$-theory of some classes of surfaces defined over finite fields. We achieve this by first calculating the motivic cohomology groups and then studying the motivic Atiyah-Hirzebruch spectral sequence. In an…
Let $G$ be a finite group, $H \le G$ a subgroup, $R$ a commutative ring, $A$ an $R$-algebra, and $\alpha$ an action of $G$ on $A$ by $R$-algebra automorphisms. We study the associated \emph{skew Hecke algebra}…
A theorem by Almgren establishes that any minimal $2$-sphere immersed in $\mathbb{S}^3$ is a totally geodesic equator. In this paper we give a purely geometric extension of Almgren's result, by showing that any immersed, real analytic…
We prove two results regarding Hodge structures appearing in the cohomology of complex tori. First, we prove that if a polarizable Hodge structure appears in the cohomology of a complex torus $T$, it appears in the cohomology of an abelian…
To a pair $P$ and $Q$ of finite posets we attach the toric ring $K[P,Q]$ whose generators are in bijection to the isotone maps from $P$ to $Q$. This class of algebras, called isotonian, are natural generalizations of the so-called Hibi…
We find new examples of complex surfaces with countably many non-isomorphic algebraic structures. Here is one such example: take an elliptic curve $E$ in $\mathbb P^2$ and blow up nine general points on $E$. Then the complement $M$ of the…
Given $X$ a K3 surface admitting a symplectic automorphism $\tau$ of order 4, we describe the isometry $\tau^*$ on $H^2(X,\mathbb Z)$. Having called $\tilde Z$ and $\tilde Y$ respectively the minimal resolutions of the quotient surfaces…
A simply connected topological space is called \emph{rationally elliptic} if the rank of its total homotopy group and its total (co)homology group are both finite. A well-known Hilali conjecture claims that for a rationally elliptic space…
Let $S$ be a smooth projective surface over $\mathbb{C}$ and $S^{[n]}$ be the Hilbert scheme of $n$ points over $S$, for any positive integer $n$. Let ${\bf a}=(n_1,\ldots,n_r)$ and ${\bf b}=(m_1,\ldots,m_s)$ be two distinct partitions of…
The main goal of this paper is to investigate the structure of Hopf algebras with the property that either its Jacobson radical is a Hopf ideal or its coradical is a subalgebra. In order to do that we define the Hochschild cohomology of an…
We give a simple proof of the statement that every rational curve in the primitive class of a general K3 surface is nodal.
We study classes determined by the Kazhdan-Lusztig basis of the Hecke algebra in the $K$-theory and hyperbolic cohomology theory of flag varieties. We first show that, in $K$-theory, the two different choices of Kazhdan-Lusztig bases…
The relationship between convex geometry and algebraic geometry has deep historical roots, tracing back to classical works in enumerative geometry. In this paper, we continue this theme by studying two interconnected problems regarding…
We show that the cohomology intersection number of a twisted Gauss-Manin connection with regularization condition is a rational function. As an application, we obtain a new quadratic relation associated to period integrals of a certain…
We establish simplicial triviality of the convolution algebra $\ell^1(S)$, where $S$ is a band semigroup. This generalizes results of the first author [Glasgow Math. J. 2005, Houston J. Math. 2010]. To do so, we show that the cyclic…
