We bound from above the expected total Betti number of a high degree random real hypersurface in a smooth real projective manifold. This upper bound is deduced from the equirepartition of critical points of a real Lefschetz pencil…
We show the validity of the Minimal Model Program for threefolds in characteristic five.
We compute an explicit closed formula for the Hilbert polynomial of the Jacobian algebra $M(f)$ of a reduced surface $X:f=0$ in $\mathbb P^3$ in terms of the graded Betti numbers of the algebra $M(f)$. When $X$ has only isolated…
We compute the Betti numbers and describe the cohomology algebras of the ordered and unordered configuration spaces of three points in complex projective spaces, including the infinite dimensional case. We also compute these invariants for…
We prove a vanishing and estimation theorem for the $p^{\text{th}}$-Betti number of closed $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with a lower bound on the average of the lowest $n-p$ eigenvalues of the curvature operator. This generalizes…
We exhibit an algorithm that, given input a curve $X$ over a number field, computes as output the minimal degree of a Belyi map $X \to \mathbb{P}^1$.
This paper provides a topological interpretation for number theoretic properties of quantum invariants of 3-manifolds. In particular, it is shown that the p-adic valuation of the quantum SO(3)-invariant of a 3-manifold M, for odd primes p,…
We calculate explicitly the Betti numbers of a class of barely G2 manifolds - that is, G2 manifolds that are realised as a product of a Calabi-Yau manifold and a circle, modulo an involution. The particular class which we consider are those…
We prove a smooth analogue of the classical Thom-Milnor bound, showing that the Betti numbers of the zero set of a smooth map on a compact Riemannian manifold can be controlled by a condition number computed from its first jet. This extends…
Given an elliptic self-adjoint pseudo-differential operator $P$ bounded from below, acting on the sections of a Riemannian line bundle over a smooth closed manifold $M$ equipped with some Lebesgue measure, we estimate from above, as $L$…
We give a short and elementary proof of the boundedness of triangular Hilbert transform along non-flat curves definable in a polynomially bounded o-minimal structure. We also provide a criterion on the multiplier to determine whether the…
The least upper bound on degrees of elements of a minimal system of generators of the algebra of invariants of 3x3 matrices is found, and the nilpotency degree of a relatively free finitely generated algebra with the identity x^3=0 is…
We show that when a sequence of Riemannian manifolds collapses under a lower Ricci curvature bound, the first Betti number cannot drop more than the dimension.
We describe and analyze a numerical algorithm for computing the homology (Betti numbers and torsion coefficients) of real projective varieties. Here numerical means that the algorithm is numerically stable (in a sense to be made precise).…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety. We show that the map that sends a codimension one distribution on $X$ to its singular scheme is a morphism from the moduli space of distributions into a Hilbert scheme. We describe its fibers and,…
We study compact three-manifolds with boundary obtained by randomly gluing together truncated tetrahedra along their faces. We prove that, asymptotically almost surely as the number of tetrahedra tends to infinity, these manifolds are…
We continue the study of restricted Monte Carlo algorithms in a general setting. Here we show a lower bound for minimal errors in the setting with finite restriction in terms of deterministic minimal errors. This generalizes a result of…
We determine the algebraic degree of minimal problems for the calibrated trifocal variety in computer vision. We rely on numerical algebraic geometry and the homotopy continuation software Bertini.
We prove that a rational linear combination of Chern numbers is an oriented diffeomorphism invariant of smooth complex projective varieties if and only if it is a linear combination of the Euler and Pontryagin numbers. In dimension at least…
We explore the relationship between multigraded Castelnuovo--Mumford regularity, truncations, Betti numbers, and virtual resolutions on a product of projective spaces $X$. After proving a uniqueness theorem for certain virtual resolutions,…
