Let $f$ be a polynomial automorphism of the affine plane. In this paper we consider the possibility for it to possess infinitely many periodic points on an algebraic curve $C$. We conjecture that this happens if and only if $f$ admits a…

Let $C_k$ be a smooth projective curve over a global field $k$, which is neither rational nor elliptic. Harris-Silverman, when $p=0$, and Schweizer, when $p>0$ together with an extra condition on the Jacobian variety…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic zero and ${\bar k}$ an algebraic closure of $k$. For a geometrically integral variety $X$ over $k$, we write ${\bar k}(X)$ for the function field of ${\bar X}=X\times_k{\bar k}$. If $X$ has a smooth…

We show that, if a simple $C^{*}$-algebra $A$ is topologically finite-dimensional in a suitable sense, then not only $K_{0}(A)$ has certain good properties, but $A$ is even accessible to Elliott's classification program. More precisely, we…

We associate to any complete spherical variety $X$ a certain nonnegative rational number $\wp(X)$, which we conjecture to satisfy the inequality $\wp(X) \le \operatorname{dim} X - \operatorname{rank} X$ with equality holding if and only if…

For every algebraically closed field $\boldsymbol k$ of characteristic different from $2$, we prove the following: (1) Generic finite dimensional (not necessarily associative) $\boldsymbol k$-algebras of a fixed dimension, considered up to…

The study of entire holomorphic curves contained in projective algebraic varieties is intimately related to fascinating questions of geometry and number theory -- especially through the concepts of curvature and positivity which are central…

We obtain a complete classification of components of strata of holomorphic and meromorphic k-differentials. We show that, when genus is at least two and outside of explicit exceptions when k < 4, there is one primitive nonhyperelliptic…

An arithmetic method of proving the irrationality of smooth projective 3-folds is described, using reduction modulo $p$. It is illustrated by an application to a cubic threefold, for which the hypothesis that its intermediate Jacobian is…

Let C be a curve of genus g, and G a finite group of automorphisms of C . We prove that for g > 20 the quotient JC/G has canonical singularities, hence Kodaira dimension 0. On the other hand we give examples of curves C with g < 5 for which…

In this paper, we build on the work from our previous paper (arXiv:2002.01556) to show that periodic rational $G$-equivariant topological $K$-theory has a unique genuine-commutative ring structure for $G$ a finite abelian group. This means…

Let k be a perfect field and A a finite dimensional k-algebra of finite global dimension (e.g. the path algebra of a finite quiver without oriented cycles). Making use of the recent theory of noncommutative motives, we prove that the value…

Let $X$ be a four-dimensional projective variety defined over the field of complex numbers with only terminal singularities. We prove that if the intersection number of the canonical divisor $K$ with every very general curve is positive…

We prove that for every compactum $X$ and every integer $n \geq 2$ there are a compactum $Z$ of $\dim \leq n+1$ and a surjective $UV^{n-1}$-map $r: Z \lo X$ such that for every abelian group $G$ and every integer $k \geq 2$ such that…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus >1 over a field K which is finitely generated over the rationals. The section conjecture in Grothendieck's anabelian geometry says that the sections of the canonical projection from the arithmetic…

An important invariant of a polynomial $f$ is its Jacobian algebra defined by its partial derivatives. Let $f$ be invariant with respect to the action of a finite group of diagonal symmetries $G$. We axiomatically define an orbifold…

For a complex projective manifold, Walker has defined a regular homomorphism lifting Griffiths' Abel-Jacobi map on algebraically trivial cycle classes to a complex abelian variety, which admits a finite homomorphism to the Griffiths…

The multipullback quantization of complex projective spaces lacks the naive quantum CW-complex structure because the quantization of an embedding of the $n$-skeleton into the $(n+1)$-skeleton does not exist. To overcome this difficulty, we…

The holomorphy conjecture states roughly that Igusa's zeta function associated to a hypersurface and a character is holomorphic on $\mathbb{C}$ whenever the order of the character does not divide the order of any eigenvalue of the local…

Frucht showed that, for any finite group $G$, there exists a cubic graph such that its automorphism group is isomorphic to $G$. For groups generated by two elements we simplify his construction to a graph with fewer nodes. In the general…
