We consider the error due to a single bit-flip in a floating point number. We assume IEEE 754 double precision arithmetic, which encodes binary floating point numbers in a 64-bit word. We assume that the bit-flip happens randomly so it has…

Blowing up a point p in a manifold M builds a new manifold M' in which p is replaced by the projectivization of the tangent space of M at p. This well-known operation also applies to fixed points of diffeomorphisms, yielding continuous…

A phenomenological analysis based on the published branching fractions and $CP$ asymmetry observables of the $B\to K\pi$, $B\to\pi\pi$ and $B\to KK$ dataset is performed. The amplitude decomposition by the topological diagrams and the…

A vertex $v$ in a map $M$ has the face-sequence $(p_1 ^{n_1}. \ldots. p_k^{n_k})$, if there are $n_i$ numbers of $p_i$-gons incident at $v$ in the given cyclic order, for $1 \leq i \leq k$. A map $M$ is called a semi-equivelar map if each…

Let C be a general element in the locus of curves in M_g lying on some K3 surface, where g is congruent to 3 mod 4 and greater than or equal to 15. Following Mukai's ideas, we show how to reconstruct the K3 surface as a Fourier-Mukai…

An orientation-preserving branched covering map $f\colon S^2 \to S^2$ is called a critically fixed Thurston map if $f$ fixes each of its critical points. It was recently shown that there is an explicit one-to-one correspondence between…

In an earlier paper we explained how to convert the problem of symplectically embedding one 4-dimensional ellipsoid into another into the problem of embedding a certain set of disjoint balls into \CP^2 by using a new way to desingularize…

Suppose that $f: \bR^n\to\bR^n$ is a mapping of $K$-bounded $p$-mean distortion for some $p>n-1$. We prove the equivalence of the following properties of $f$: doubling condition for $J(x,f)$ over big balls centered at origin, boundedness of…

It is a classical result, due to F. Tricceri, that the blow-up of a manifold of locally conformally K\"ahler (l.c.K. for short) type at some point is again of l.c.K. type. However, the proof given in \cite{Tric} is somehow unclear. We give…

We consider graded twisted Calabi-Yau algebras of dimension 3 which are derivation-quotient algebras of the form $A = \kk Q/I$, where $Q$ is a quiver and $I$ is an ideal of relations coming from taking partial derivatives of a twisted…

We prove the finiteness of the number of blow-analytic equivalence classes of embedded plane curve germs for any fixed number of branches and for any fixed value of $\mu'$ ---a combinatorial invariant coming from the dual graphs of good…

We present simple examples of rational maps of the complex projective plane with equal first and second dynamical degrees and no invariant foliation.

Stratified flops show up in the birational geometry of symplectic varieties such as resolutions of nilpotent orbits and moduli spaces of sheaves. Constructing derived equivalences between varieties related by such flops is, strangely…

We show that the global and local constructions of three types of blowup of a smooth manifold along a closed submanifold in differential topology are equivalent.

For proper morphisms, we give a functorial flatification algorithm by blow-ups in the spirit of Hironaka's flatification algorithm. In characteristic zero, this gives functorial flatification by blow-ups in smooth centers. We also give a…

Many mathematicians encounter k-to-1 maps only in the study of covering maps. But, of course, k-to-1 maps do not have to be open. This paper touches on covering maps, and simple maps, but concentrates on ordinary k-to-1 functions (both…

We study the dynamics of corotational wave maps from $\mathbb R^{1+2} \rightarrow \mathbb S^2$ at threshold energy. It is known that topologically trivial wave maps with energy $< 8\pi$ are global and scatter to a constant map. In this…

We study conjectures on the dimension of linear systems on the blow-up of P^2 and P^3 at points in very general position. We provide algorithms and Maple codes based on these conjectures.

We prove that the critical Wave Maps equation with target $S^2$ and origin $\mathbb{R}^{2+1}$ admits energy class blow up solutions of the form $$u(t,r)=Q(\lambda(t)r)+\epsilon(t,r)$$where $Q: \mathbb{R}^2 \to S^2$ is the ground state…

The Bitableax correspondence isomorphism/Koszul map Theorem (BCK Theorem, for short, Theorem 6.5 below) describes a relevant pair of mutually inverse vector space isomorphisms, the Koszul map K : U(gl(n))-> Sym(gl(n)) and the bitableaux…
