In this article, we discuss and survey the recent progress towards the Schottky problem, and make some comments on the relations between the Andr{\'e}-Oort conjecture, Okounkov convex bodies, Coleman's conjecture, stable modular forms,…

Using results of Fayers on the structure of Specht modules, we prove two different formulae for the determinant of matrices which are obtained by amalgamating the entries of two smaller matrices. In particular, this gives formulae for…

We observe that certain equivariant intersection numbers of Chern characters of tautological sheaves on Hilbert schemes for suitable circle actions can be computed using the Bloch-Okounkov formula, hence they are related to Gromov-Witten…

We construct families of Newton-Okounkov bodies for the free group character varieties and configuration spaces of any connected reductive group. We use this construction to give a proof that these spaces are Cohen-Macaulay.

In this article we derive an explicit diameter bound for graphs satisfying the so-called curvature dimension conditions $CD(K,n)$. This refines a recent result due to Liu, M\"unch and Peyerimhoff when the dimension $n$ is finite.

Let $X$ be a projective irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold. We associate with any big $\mathbf{R}$-divisor $D$ on $X$ a convex polygon $\Delta_E^{\mathrm{num}}(D)$ of dimension 2, whose Euclidean volume is…

We prove a version of the Stokes formula for differential forms on locally convex spaces. The main tool used for proving this formula is the surface layer theorem proved in another paper by the author. Moreover, for differential forms of a…

We prove a result on the structure of a Diophantine spectrum associated with Minkowski diagonal continued fraction.

An infinite dimensional algebra, which is useful for deriving exact solutions of the generalized pairing problem, is introduced. A formalism for diagonalizing the corresponding Hamiltonian is also proposed. The theory is illustrated with…

In a recent project, Castillo, Libedinsky, Plaza, and the author established a deep connection between the size of lower Bruhat intervals in affine Weyl groups and the volume of the permutohedron, showing that the former can be expressed as…

For an elliptic problem with two space dimensions, we propose to formulate the finite volume method with the help of Petrov-Galerkin mixed finite elementsthat are based on the building of a dual Raviart-Thomas basis.

We define oldforms and newforms for Drinfeld cusp forms of level $t$ and conjecture that their direct sum is the whole space of cusp forms. Moreover we describe explicitly the matrix $U$ associated to the action of the Atkin operator…

For every large enough $n$, we explicitly construct a body of constant width $2$ that has volume less than $0.9^n \text{Vol}(\mathbb{B}^{n}$), where $\mathbb{B}^{n}$ is the unit ball in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. This answers a question of…

For a given convex body K in $R^d$, a random polytope $K^{(n)}$ is defined (essentially) as the intersection of $n$ independent closed halfspaces containing $K$ and having an isotropic and (in a specified sense) uniform distribution. We…

First, we shall formulate and prove Theorem of Lie-Kolchin type for a cone and derive some algebro-geometric consequences. Next, inspired by a recent result of Dinh and Sibony we pose a conjecture of Tits type for a group of automorphisms…

This is an English translation of the following paper, published several years ago: Nikonorov Yu.G. On the geodesic diameter of surfaces with involutive isometry (Russian), Tr. Rubtsovsk. Ind. Inst., 2001, V. 9, 62-65, Zbl. 1015.53041. All…

Given a multi-variable polynomial, there is an associated divided symmetrization (in particular turning it into a symmetric function). Postinkov has found the volume of a permutohedron as a divided symmetrization (DS) of the power of a…

Let K be a d-dimensional convex body, and let $K^{(n)}$ be the intersection of n halfspaces containing $K$ whose bounding hyperplanes are independent and identically distributed. Under suitable distributional assumptions, we prove an…

We study the variation of the Tait number of a closed space curve according to its different projections. The results are used to compute the writhe of a knot, leading to a closed formula in case of polygonal curves.

A finite difference numerical method is investigated for fractional order diffusion problems in one space dimension. For this, a mathematical model is developed to incorporate homogeneous Dirichlet and Neumann type boundary conditions. The…
