An exact computation of the persistent Betti numbers of a submanifold $X$ of a Euclidean space is possible only in a theoretical setting. In practical situations, only a finite sample of $X$ is available. We show that, under suitable…

The comparison theorem for a smooth projective variety $X$ over $\mathbb{C}$ tells us that the Betti numbers are independent of $l$. We aim to understand the $l$ independence of Betti numbers for smooth projective varieties $X$ over $k$,…

We show the minimal total Betti number of a closed almost complex manifold of dimension $2n\ge 8$ is four, thus confirming a conjecture of Sullivan except for dimension $6$. Along the way, we prove the only simply connected closed complex…

We show that birational smooth complex projective varieties with numerically effective canonical bundles along the exceptional loci have the same Betti numbers. In particular, birational smooth minimal models share the same Betti numbers.…

We establish general bounds on the topology of free boundary minimal surfaces obtained via min-max methods in compact, three-dimensional ambient manifolds with mean convex boundary. We prove that the first Betti number is lower…

We show that the number of marked minimal models of an n-dimensional smooth complex projective variety of general type can be bounded in terms of its volume, and, if n=3, also in terms of its Betti numbers. For an n-dimensional projective…

The question was raised as to whether the cut number of a 3-manifold X is bounded from below by 1/3 beta_1(X). We show that the answer to this question is `no.' For each m>0, we construct explicit examples of closed 3-manifolds X with…

We prove that for a finite set of points $X$ in the projective $n$-space over any field, the Betti number $\beta_{n,n+1}$ of the coordinate ring of $X$ is non-zero if and only if $X$ lies on the union of two planes whose sum of dimension is…

Let X be a smooth threefold. We show that if $X_i\dashrightarrow X_{i+1}$ is a flip which appears in the $K_X$-MMP, then $c_1(X_i)^3-c_1(X_{i+1})^3$ is bounded by a constant depending only on $b_2(X)$.

We give a bound for the Betti numbers of the Stanley-Reisner ring of a stellar subdivision of a Gorenstein* simplicial complex by applying unprojection theory. From this we derive a bound for the Betti numbers of iterated stellar…

Belyi's theorem asserts that a smooth projective curve $X$ defined over a number field can be realized as a cover of the projective line unramified outside three points. In this short paper we investigate the bejaviour of the minimal degree…

Let $f:(X,B)\to Z$ be a 3-fold extremal dlt flipping contraction defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>5$, such that the coefficients of $\{B\}$ are in the standard set $\{1-\frac 1n|n\in \mathbb N\}$, then the…

Suppose X is any finite complex with vanishing L^2 Betti number. We prove upper bounds on the Betti numbers for regular coverings of X, sublinear in the order of covering. The bounds are sensitive to the Novikov-Shubin invariants of X, and…

We prove graded bounds on the individual Betti numbers of affine and projective complex varieties. In particular, we give for each $p,d,r$, explicit bounds on the $p$-th Betti numbers of affine and projective subvarieties of $\mathrm{C}^k$,…

Let $X\rightarrow C$ be a totally real semistable degeneration over a smooth real curve $C$ with degenerate fiber $X_0$. Assuming that the irreducible components of $X_0$ are simple from a cohomological point of view, we give a bound for…

We estimate from below the expected Betti numbers of real hypersurfaces taken at random in a smooth real projective n-dimensional manifold. These random hypersurfaces are chosen in the linear system of a large d-th power of a real ample…

In this paper, we study the minimal model theory for threefolds in mixed characteristic. As a generalization of a result of Kawamata, we show that the MMP holds for strictly semi-stable schemes over an excellent Dedekind scheme $V$ of…

We prove that the index is bounded from below by a linear function of its first Betti number for any compact free boundary $f$-minimal hypersurface in certain positively curved weighted manifolds.

We prove that the degree of a nonconstant morphism from a smooth projective 3-fold $X$ with N\'{e}ron-Severi group ${\bf Z}$ to a smooth 3-dimensional quadric is bounded in terms of numerical invariants of $X$. In the special case where $X$…

We prove that the Betti numbers of simplicial complexes of bounded vertex degrees are testable in constant time.
