Given an open subset U of a projective curve Y and a smooth family f:V-->U of curves, with semi-stable reduction over Y, we show that for a sub variation of Hodge structures of rank >2 the Arakelov inequality must be strict. For families of…

We observe that stable integral simplicial volume of closed manifolds gives an upper bound for the rank gradient of the corresponding fundamental groups.

Under some non-invertibility and irreducibility condition, for nilmanifold Anosov maps with one-dimensional stable bundle, we get the equivalence among the existence of invariant unstable bundle, the existence of topological conjugacy to…

Previous research established that the maximal rank of the abstract regular polytopes whose automorphism group is a transitive proper subgroup of $\mbox{S}_n$ is $n/2 + 1$. Up to isomorphism and duality, when $n\geq 12$, there are only two…

For all $k \ge 2$, we show that there exists a group $G$ and a non-free stably free $\mathbb{Z} G$-module of rank $k$. We use this to show that, for all $k \ge 2$, there exist homotopically distinct finite $2$-complexes with fundamental…

We classify all positive integers n and r such that (stably) non-rational complex r-fold quadric bundles over rational n-folds exist. We show in particular that for any n and r, a wide class of smooth r-fold quadric bundles over projective…

We show that for each $n \geq 2$, the systoles of closed hyperbolic $n$-manifolds form a dense subset of $(0, +\infty)$. We also show that for any $n\geq 2$ and any Salem number $\lambda$, there is a closed arithmetic hyperbolic…

We find upper bounds for the essential dimension of various moduli stacks of $\sln$-bundles over a curve. When $n$ is a prime power, our calculation computes the essential dimension of the stack of stable bundles exactly and the essential…

A well-known property of unordered configuration spaces of points (in an open, connected manifold) is that their homology stabilises as the number of points increases. We generalise this result to moduli spaces of submanifolds of higher…

Stable matching is a classical combinatorial problem that has been the subject of intense theoretical and empirical study since its introduction in 1962 in a seminal paper by Gale and Shapley. In this paper, we provide a new upper bound on…

We prove a sharp stable $2$-systolic inequality for complex projective space under the scalar curvature lower bound of the normalized Fubini-Study metric. If $M$ is diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{C}\mathrm{P}^n$ and $\mathrm{scal}_g\ge 4n(n+1)$,…

We construct a zig-zag from the once delooped space of pseudoisotopies of a closed $2n$-disc to the once looped algebraic $K$-theory space of the integers and show that the maps involved are $p$-locally $(2n-4)$-connected for $n>3$ and…

Consider the configuration spaces of manifold (closed or open). An influential theorem of McDuff and Segal shows that the (co)homology of unordered configuration spaces of open manifold is independent of number of configuration points in a…

We prove a homological stability theorem for moduli spaces of manifolds of dimension $2n$, for attaching handles of index at least $n$, after these manifolds have been stabilised by countably many copies of $S^n \times S^n$. Combined with…

We study the bound states of two-dimensional bright solitons in nonlocal nonlinear media. The general properties and stability of these multisolitary structures are investigated analytically and numerically. We have found that a steady…

We give new upper bounds on the stable commutator lengths of Dehn twists in mapping class groups and new lower bounds on the stable commutator lengths of Dehn twists in hyperelliptic mapping class groups. In particular, we show that the…

We prove upper bounds for the graded Betti numbers of Stanley-Reisner rings of balanced simplicial complexes. Along the way we show bounds for Cohen-Macaulay graded rings $S/I$, where $S$ is a polynomial ring and $I\subseteq S$ is an…

We establish an isomorphism between the stable homotopy groups of the 2-completed motivic sphere spectrum over the real numbers and the corresponding stable homotopy groups of the 2-completed Z/2-equivariant sphere spectrum, in a certain…

This paper concerns some stability properties of higher dimensional catenoids in $\rr^{n+1}$ with $n\ge 3$. We prove that higher dimensional catenoids have index one. We use $\delta$-stablity for minimal hypersurfaces and show that the…

The stable systolic category of a closed manifold M indicates the complexity in the sense of volume. This is a homotopy invariant, even though it is defined by some relations between homological volumes on M. We show an equality of the…
