A sufficient integral criterion for a blow-up solution of the Hopf equations (the Euler equations with zero pressure) is found. This criterion shows that a certain positive integral quantity blows up in a finite time under specific initial…

In this paper we develop a Morse-like theory in order to decompose birational maps and morphisms of smooth projective varieties defined over a field of characteristic zero into more elementary steps which are locally \'etale isomorphic to…

Assuming Hartshorne's conjecture on complete intersections, we classify projective bundles over projective spaces which has a smooth blow up structure over another projective space. Under some assumptions, we also classify projective…

Stack-theoretic blow-ups have proven to be efficient in resolving singularities over fields of characteristic zero. In this article, we move forward towards positive characteristic where new challenges arise. In particular, the dimension of…

The moduli space of $8$ points on $\mathbb{P}^1$, a so-called ancestral Deligne-Mostow space, is, by work of Kond\={o}, also a moduli space of K3 surfaces. We prove that the Deligne-Mostow isomorphism does not lift to a morphism between the…

We give a survey of the implosion construction, extending some of its aspects relating to hypertoric geometry from type $A$ to a general reductive group, and interpret it in the context of the Moore-Tachikawa category. We use these ideas to…

We investigate the blow-up for the generalized hyperelastic rod equation, which includes the Camassa-Holm equation, the the hyperelastic-rod wave equation, and the rotation-Camassa-Holm equation as special cases. We establish a new…

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…

In this article, we study the blowup phenomena of compressible Euler equations with non-vacuum initial data. Our new results, which cover a general class of testing functions, present new initial value blowup conditions. The corresponding…

It is known that the moduli space of plane quartic curves is birational to an arithmetic quotient of a 6-dimensional complex ball. In this paper, we shall show that there exists a 15-dimensional space of meromorphic automorphic forms on the…

A once-extended d-dimensional topological field theory Z is a symmetric monoidal functor (taking values in a chosen target symmetric monoidal (infty,2)-category) assigning values to (d-2)-manifolds, (d-1)-manifolds, and d-manifolds. We show…

The coil-globule transition of an isolated polymer has been well established to be a second-order phase transition described by a standard tricritical O(0) field theory. We provide compelling evidence from Monte Carlo simulations in four…

It is still not known whether a solution to the incompressible Euler equation, endowed with a smooth initial value, can blow-up in finite time. In [{\em Comm. Math. Phys.}, 378:557--568, 2020] it has been shown that, if it exists, such a…

We show that blowups of the projective plane at points lying on a smooth cubic curve do not contain phantoms, provided the points are chosen in very general position on this curve.

Using mixed analytical and numerical methods we investigate the development of singularities in the heat flow for corotational harmonic maps from the $d$-dimensional sphere to itself for $3\leq d\leq 6$. By gluing together shrinking and…

In this note, we prove a blow-up result for a semilinear generalized Tricomi equation with nonlinear term of derivative type, i.e., for the equation $\mathscr{T}_{\!\!\ell} u = |\partial_t u|^p$, where $ \mathscr{T}_{\!\!\ell} =…

This meeting covered the range of cosmic explosions from solar flares to gamma-ray bursts. A common theme is the role of rotation and magnetic fields. A rigorous examination is underway to characterize systematic effects that might alter…

We are concerned with an elliptic problem which describes a mean field equation of the equilibrium turbulence of vortices with variable intensities. In the first part of the paper we describe the blow-up phenomenon and highlight the…

We give a criterion for a projectivized toric vector bundle to be a Mori dream space and describe its Cox ring using generators and relations. Both of these results are in terms of the matroids of all symmetric powers of the bundle. We also…

Let $X\subset \mathbb P^d$ be a $m$-dimensional variety in $d$-dimensional projective space. Let $k$ be a positive integer such that $\binom{m+k}k \le d$. Consider the following interpolation problem: does there exist a variety $Y\subset…
