The {\em Singular Cardinal Hypothesis} (SCH) is one of the most classical combinatorial principles in set theory. It says that if $\kappa$ is singular strong limit, then $2^{\kappa}=\kappa^+$. We prove that given a singular cardinal…

We develop a general theory for irreducible homogeneous spaces $M= G/H$, in relation to the nullity $\nu$ of their curvature tensor. We construct natural invariant (different and increasing) distributions associated with the nullity, that…

Background Independence is the modern form of the relational side of the Absolute versus Relational Debate. Difficulties with its implementation form the Problem of Time. Its 9 facets - Isham and Kucha\v{r}'s conceptual classification -…

In this paper for each cardinal $\kappa$ we construct an infinite $\kappa$-bounded (and hence countably compact) regular space $R_{\kappa}$ such that for any $T_1$ space $Y$ of pseudo-character $\leq\kappa$, each continuous function…

We use a Carleman type inequality of Koch and Tataru to obtain quantitative estimates of unique continuation for solutions of second order elliptic equations with singular lower order terms. First we prove a three sphere inequality and then…

Answering some of the main questions from [MR13], we show that whenever $\kappa$ is a cardinal satisfying $\kappa^{< \kappa} = \kappa > \omega$, then the embeddability relation between $\kappa$-sized structures is strongly invariantly…

For each cardinal $\kappa$, each natural number $n$ and each simplicial complex $K$ we construct a space $\nu^n_\kappa(K)$ and a map $\pi \colon \nu^n_\kappa(K) \to K$ such that the following conditions are satisfied. 1. $\nu^n_\kappa(K)$…

In this paper, over a field of positive characteristic we exhibit an infinite family of counter examples to the Zariski Cancellation Problem in higher dimensions ($\geqslant 3$) which are pairwise non-isomorphic and also non-isomorphic to…

This paper studies solutions to a singular $SU(3)$ Toda system with linear source terms on a compact Riemann surface $\Sigma$ with smooth boundaries $\partial\Sigma$. We establish the existence of solutions when the parameters are not…

In [7], Donovan and Wemyss introduced the contraction algebra of flop- ping curves in 3-folds. When the flopping curve is smooth and irreducible, we prove that the contraction algebra together with its A_\infty-structure recovers various…

We prove that a 3-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold which is locally collapsed, with respect to a lower curvature bound, is a graph manifold. This theorem was stated by Perelman and was used in his proof of the geometrization…

We define forcing orders which add witnesses to the failure of various forms of Friedman's Property. These posets behave similarly to the forcing order adding a nonreflecting stationary set but have the advantage of allowing the…

In this article we prove two cases of the abundance conjecture for $3$-folds in characteristic $p>5$: $(i)$ $(X, \Delta)$ is KLT and $\kappa(X, K_X+\Delta)=1$, and $(ii)$ $(X, 0)$ is KLT, $K_X\equiv 0$ and $X$ is not uniruled.

If Y,Z are three-dimensional smooth varieties related by a flop, then Bondal and Orlov conjectured that the derived categories of coherent sheaves on Y and Z are equivalent. This conjecture was recently proved by Bridgeland. Our aim in this…

We prove existence of global weak solutions to the chemotaxis system $ u_t=\Delta u - \nabla\cdot (u\nabla v) +\kappa u -\mu u^2 $ $ v_t=\Delta v-v+u $ under homogeneous Neumann boundary conditions in a smooth bounded convex domain…

In this paper, we obtain the exact blow-up profiles of solutions of the Keller-Segel-Patlak system in the space with dimensions $N\ge 3$, which solves an open problem proposed by P. Souplet and M. Winkler in 2019. To establish this…

Using the theory of resolving classes, we show that if $X$ is a CW complex of finite type such that $\map_*(X, S^{2n+1})\sim *$ for all sufficiently large $n$, then $\map_*(X, K) \sim *$ for every simply-connected finite-dimensional CW…

After publishing his recent paper in SIAM J. Appl. Math, 74, 392-410, 2014 the author has realized that actually he has addressed in that paper, for the first time, a long standing open question being unaware about this. This question is…

We complement the recent theory of general singular integrals $T$ invariant under the Zygmund dilations $(x_1, x_2, x_3) \mapsto (s x_1, tx_2, st x_3)$ by proving necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness and compactness of…

We prove that the automorphism group of a topological parallelism on real projective 3-space is compact. In a preceding article it was proved that at least the connected component of the identity is compact. The present proof does not…
