We obtain a formula for the number of genus two curves with a fixed complex structure of a given degree on a del-Pezzo surface that pass through an appropriate number of generic points of the surface. This is done by extending the…

We compute an upper bound for the dimension of the tangent spaces at classical points of certain eigenvarieties associated with definite unitary groups, especially including the so-called critically refined cases. Our bound is given in…

We study groups of germs of complex diffeomorphisms having a property called irreducibility. The notion is motivated by a similar property of the fundamental group of the complement of an irreducible hypersurface in the complex projective…

We prove that in dimensions not equal to 4, 5, or 7, the homology and homotopy groups of the classifying space of the topological group of diffeomorphisms of a disk fixing the boundary are finitely generated in each degree. The proof uses…

Let $(X, 0)$ be a complex analytic surface germ embedded in $(\mathbb{C}^n,0)$ with an isolated singularity and $\Phi=(g,f):(X,0) \longrightarrow (\mathbb{C}^2,0)$ be a finite morphism. We define a family of analytic invariants of the…

We survey recent results on multiple transitivity of automorphism groups of affine algebraic varieties. We consider the property of infinite transitivity of the special automorphism group, which is equivalent to flexibility of the…

We study the maximal multiplicity locus of a variety $X$ over a field of characteristic $p>0$ that is provided with a finite surjective radical morphism $\delta:X\rightarrow V$, where $V$ is regular, for example, when…

We investigate germs of real analytic Levi-flat hypersurfaces tangent to germs of codimension one holomorphic webs. We introduce the notion of first integrals for local webs. In particular, we prove that a $k$-web with finitely many…

Given the germ of a smooth plane curve $(\{f(x,y)=0\},0)\subset (\mathbb{K}^2,0), \mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{C}$, with an isolated singularity, we define two invariants $I_f$ and $V_f \in \mathbb{N} \cup\{\infty\}$, which count the…

Let $\xi$ be an analytic bracket-generating distribution. We show that the subspace of germs that are singular (in the sense of Control Theory) has infinite codimension within the space of germs of smooth curves tangent to $\xi$. We…

We prove that a germ of a finite morphism of smooth surfaces is rigid if the germ of its branch curve has one of $ADE$-singularity types and establish a correspondence between the set of rigid germs and the set of Belyi rational functions…

We introduce the concept of topological finite-determinacy for germs of analytic functions within a fixed ideal $I$, which provides a notion of topological finite-determinacy of functions with non-isolated singularities. We prove the…

The \emph{canonical degree} of a curve $C$ on a surface $X$ is $K_X\cdot C$. Our main result, is that on a surface of general type there are only finitely many curves with negative self--intersection and sufficiently large canonical degree.…

We investigate the relationship between the geometric Bieri-Neumann-Strebel-Renz invariants of a space (or of a group), and the jump loci for homology with coefficients in rank 1 local systems over a field. We give computable upper bounds…

We prove that, if two germs of plane curves $(C,0)$ and $(C',0)$ with at least one singular branch are equivalent by a (real) smooth diffeomorphism, then $C$ is complex isomorphic to $C'$ or to $\overline{C'}$. A similar result was shown by…

We give several new applications of our theorem on the existence of multiplicity of graded families of ideals as a limit, including a very general Minkowski type inequality for graded families of ideals, a very general formula for existence…

We find sharp upper bounds for the multiplicities and the numerical values of all the distinct eigenvalues on a surface of revolution diffeomorphic to the sphere.

We classify invariant curves for birational surface maps that are expanding on cohomology. When the expansion is exponential, the arithmetic genus of an invariant curve is at most one. This implies severe constraints on both the type and…

We prove a first principle of preservation of multiplicity in difference geometry, paving the way for the development of a more general intersection theory. In particular, the fibres of a \sigma-finite morphism between difference curves are…

We study finite morphisms of varieties and the link between their top multiplicity loci under certain assumptions. More precisely, we focus on how to determine that link in terms of the spaces of arcs of the varieties.
