We study symplectic minimal resolutions of weighted projective planes $\mathbb{CP}(a,b,c)$ from the perspective of disconnected symplectic divisors with symplectic log Kodaira dimension $-\infty$. Building on the techniques developed in our…
In this paper we establish the relation between key polynomials (as defined in \cite{SopivNova}) and minimal pairs of definition of a valuation. We also discuss truncations of valuations on a polynomial ring $K[x]$. We prove that a…
Benguria and Loss have conjectured that, amongst all smooth closed curves of length $2\pi$ in the plane, the lowest possible eigenvalue of the operator $L=-\Delta+\kappa^2$ was one. They observed that this value was achieved on a…
Given an arithmetic surface and a positive hermitian line bundle over it, we bound the successive minima of the lattice of global sections of this line bundle. Our method combines a result of C.Voisin on secant varieties of projective…
It is shown that if $\gamma: [a,b] \to S^2$ is $C^3$ with $\det(\gamma, \gamma', \gamma'') \neq 0$, and if $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^3$ is a Borel set, then $\dim \pi_{\theta} (A) \geq \min\left\{ 2,\dim A, \frac{ \dim A}{2} + \frac{3}{4}…
A vanishing sum of roots of unity is called minimal if no proper, nonempty sub-sum of it vanishes. This paper classifies all minimal vanishing sums of roots of unity of weight at most 16 by hand, thereby uncovering new phenomena beyond the…
The paper describes the algebraic structure of the graded algebra of differentially homogeneous polynomials of fixed finite order. We show that it is a finitely generated algebra, and we exhibit a minimal set of generators. Along the way,…
Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with independent, identically distributed mean 0, variance 1 subgaussian entries. We prove that $$ \mathbb{P}(A\text{ has distinct singular values})\geq 1-e^{-cn} $$ for some $c>0$, confirming a…
We investigate singular Hermitian metrics on vector bundles, especially strictly Griffiths positive ones. $L^2$ esitimates and vanishing theorems usually require an assumption that vector bundles are Nakano positive. However there is no…
Let $K$ be a field with $G_K(2) \simeq G_{\mathbb{Q}}(2)$, where $G_F(2)$ denotes the maximal pro-2 quotient of the absolute Galois group of a field $F$. We prove that then $K$ admits a (non-trivial) valuation $v$ which is 2-henselian and…
We study the regularity of Gevrey vectors for H\"ormander operators $$ P = \sum_{j=1}^m X_j^2 + X_0 + c$$ where the $X_j$ are real vector fields and $c(x)$ is a smooth function, all in Gevrey class $G^{s}.$ The principal hypothesis is that…
Let $G\subset\hat{G}$ be two complex connected reductive groups. We deals with the hard problem of finding sub-$G$-modules of a given irreducible $\hat{G}$-module. In the case where $G$ is diagonally embedded in $\hat{G}=G\times G$, S.…
Minimal representations of a real reductive group G are the "smallest" irreducible unitary representations of G. The author suggests a program of global analysis built on minimal representations from the philosophy: small representation of…
For each prime $p$, let $n(p)$ denote the least quadratic nonresidue modulo $p$. Vinogradov conjectured that $n(p) = O(p^\eps)$ for every fixed $\eps>0$. This conjecture follows from the generalised Riemann hypothesis, and is known to hold…
Towards the Lang--Vojta conjecture, we prove results on finiteness and Zariski degeneracy of $S$-integral points of varieties over number fields $k$, including many cases with geometrically irreducible boundary divisors. Our approach builds…
In this paper, we first establish an $L^2$-type Dolbeault isomorphism for logarithmic differential forms by H\"{o}rmander's $L^2$-estimates. By using this isomorphism and the construction of smooth Hermitian metrics, we obtain a number of…
We prove that the non-vanishing conjecture and the log minimal model conjecture for projective log canonical pairs can be reduced to the non-vanishing conjecture for smooth projective varieties such that the boundary divisor is zero.
In this paper we prove that the generalized version of the Minimal Resolution Conjecture stated by Mustata holds for certain general sets of points on a smooth cubic surface $X \subset \mathbb{P}^3$. The main tool used is Gorenstein liaison…
We propose a program for establishing a conjectural extension to the class of (origin-symmetric) log-concave probability measures $\mu$, of the classical dual Sudakov Minoration on the expectation of the supremum of a Gaussian process:…
Modifying an approach of J. Roe, this paper gives an improved lower bound on the degrees d such that for general points p1,...,pn in P2 and m > 0 there is a plane curve of degree d vanishing at each point pi with multiplicity at least m. In…
