We study the space of rational curves on del Pezzo surfaces in positive characteristic. For most primes p we prove the irreducibility of the moduli space of rational curves of a given nef class, extending results of Testa in characteristic…
Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus $g\geq 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic $p>0$ and let $F:X\rightarrow X_{1}$ be the relative k-linear Frobenius map. We prove (Theorem 1.1) E is a stable bundle on…
The paper introduces and studies differentially positive systems, that is, systems whose linearization along an arbitrary trajectory is positive. A generalization of Perron Frobenius theory is developed in this differential framework to…
Let $R=k[x_1,\dots,x_n]/I$ be a standard graded $k$-algebra where $k$ is a field of prime characteristic and let $J$ be a homogeneous ideal in $R$. Denote $(x_1,\dots,x_n)$ by $\mathfrak{m}$. We prove that there is a constant $C$…
For a reductive group G defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic, we show that the Frobenius contraction functor of G-modules is right adjoint to the Frobenius twist of the modules tensored with the Steinberg…
Let $D$ be a reduced divisor in $\mathbb P^n_k$ for an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic $p > 0$. We prove that if $(\mathbb P^n_k, D)$ is Frobenius liftable modulo $p^2$, then $D$ is a toric divisor. As a corollary,…
Let $X/\mathbb{C}$ be a smooth variety with simple normal crossings compactification $\bar{X}$, and let $L$ be an irreducible $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_{\ell}$-local system on $X$ with torsion determinant. Suppose $L$ is cohomologically rigid.…
We show that the existence of a non-trivial solution of $x^n+y^n=p^n$, with $p$ a prime number, is equivalent to the existence of a solution of a certain (over-determined) system of $(n-1)$-recursion relations ("zipper" equations) in…
The classical Liouville Theorem on conformal transformations determines local conformal transformations on the Euclidean space of dimension $\geq 3$. Its natural adaptation to the general framework of Riemannian structures is the 2-rigidity…
We continue our work on the model theory of free lattices, solving two of the main open problems from our first paper on the subject. Our main result is that the universal (existential) theory of infinite free lattices is decidable. Our…
Fix an odd prime $p$, and let $F$ be a field containing a primitive $p$th root of unity. It is known that a $p$-rigid field $F$ is characterized by the property that the Galois group $G_F(p)$ of the maximal $p$-extension $F(p)/F$ is a…
Let $R$ be a standard graded finitely generated algebra over an $F$-finite field of prime characteristic, localized at its maximal homogeneous ideal. In this note, we prove that that Frobenius complexity of $R$ is finite. Moreover, we…
Let $q$ be an odd prime power and $D$ be the set of monic irreducible polynomials in $\mathbb F_q[x]$ which can be written as a composition of monic degree two polynomials. In this paper we prove that $D$ has a natural regular structure by…
We find sufficient conditions on a set $\mathscr{M}\subset\mathbf{R}^n\times\mathscr{L}(\mathbf{R}^n,\mathbf{R}^m)$ ensuring that the set of functions such that $(F(x),DF(x))\in\mathscr{M}$ is rectifiable. We also prove a more general…
We generalise a theorem on the existence of Frobenius isocrystal and Fontaine-Laffaille module structures on rigid flat connections to the non-proper setting. The proof is based on a new strategy of a point-set topological flavour, which…
We give a geometric description of the positivity of the Frobenius-trace kernel on a $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial projective toric variety. To do so, we define its Frobenius support as well as the notions of $F$-effectiveness for divisors and…
We investigate the discrete Fuglede's conjecture and Pompeiu problem on finite abelian groups and develop a strong connection between the two problems. We give a geometric condition under which a multiset of a finite abelian group has the…
We prove a rigidity theorem for morphisms from products of open subschemes of the projective line into solvable groups not containing a copy of $\Ga$ (for example, wound unipotent groups). As a consequence, we deduce several structural…
Let f\in \mathbb{Z}[x,y] be an irreducible homogeneous polynomial of degree 3. We show that f(x,y) has an even number of prime factors as often as an odd number of prime factors.
In Theorem 3.1 of [12], we proved a rigidity result for self-shrinkers under the integral condition on the norm of the second fundamental form. In this paper, we relax the such bound to any finite constant (see Theorem 4.4 for details).
