We compute log canonical thresholds of reduced plane curves of degree $d$ at points of multiplicity $d-1$. As a consequence, we describe all possible values of log canonical threshold that are less than $2/(d-1)$ for reduced plane curves of…
Let $(X\ni x,B)$ be an lc surface germ. If $X\ni x$ is klt, we show that there exists a divisor computing the minimal log discrepancy of $(X\ni x,B)$ that is a Koll\'ar component of $X\ni x$. If $B\not=0$ or $X\ni x$ is not Du Val, we show…
This paper characterizes singularities with Mather minimal log discrepancies in the highest unit interval, i.e., the interval between $d-1$ and $d$, where $d$ is the dimension of the scheme. The class of these singularities coincides with…
We introduce new notions of log jet spaces. Mildly singular spaces are ``smooth'' in log geometry, so their log jet spaces behave like the jet spaces of smooth varieties. Myriad examples contrast log jet spaces with the usual jet spaces of…
We prove the ideal-adic semi-continuity of minimal log discrepancies on surfaces.
This is the major revision. The main purpose of this paper is to prove that minimal discrepancies of $n$-dimensional toric singularities can accumulate only from above and only to minimal discrepancies of toric singularities of dimension…
Geometric discrepancies are standard measures to quantify the irregularity of distributions. They are an important notion in numerical integration. One of the most important discrepancy notions is the so-called \emph{star discrepancy}.…
We show that if a divisor centered over a point on a smooth surface computes a minimal log discrepancy, then the divisor also computes a log canonical threshold. To prove the result, we study the asymptotic log canonical threshold of the…
We study the equivalence of approaching zero for two invariants of a singularity: the minimal log discrepancy and the log canonical threshold of the general hyperplane section.
We present predictions of jet rates in deep inelastic scattering at small x to leading-logarithmic order in x, including all sub-leading logarithms of Q^2/m_R^2 where m_R is the transverse momentum scale at which jets are resolved. We give…
We give a description of the minimal exponent of a hypersurface using higher direct images of suitably twisted sheaves of log forms on a log resolution.
For $m\in \IN, m\geq 1,$ we determine the irreducible components of the $m-th$ jet scheme of a toric surface $S.$ For $m$ big enough, we connect the number of a class of these irreducible components to the number of exceptional divisors on…
This paper shows that Mustata-Nakamura's conjecture holds for pairs consisting of a smooth surface and a multiideal with a real exponent over the base field of positive characteristic. As corollaries, we obtain the ascending chain condition…
In this paper, we propose two methods of calculating theoretically maximal metamer mismatch volumes. Unlike prior art techniques, our methods do not make any assumptions on the shape of spectra on the boundary of the mismatch volumes. Both…
An explanation to the boundness of minimal log discrepancies conjectured by V.V. Shokurov would be that the minimal log discrepancies of a variety in its closed points define a lower semi-continuous function. We check this lower…
We present a new parton level Monte Carlo program for the calculation of jet cross sections in Deep Inelastic Scattering based on Born and next-to-leading order matrix elements. Using a class of invariant jet definition schemes, the program…
M. Mustata used jet schemes to compute the multiplier ideals of reduced hyperplane arrangements. We give an alternate proof using a log resolution, which is simpler and allows us to consider non-reduced arrangements. By applying the idea of…
The law of the iterated logarithm for discrepancies of geometric progressions with small ratios is proved.
Given a toric metrized R-divisor on a toric variety over a global field, we give a formula for the essential minimum of the associated height function. Under suitable positivity conditions, we also give formulae for all the successive…
We briefly describe a new general algorithm for carrying out QCD calculations to next-to-leading order in perturbation theory. The algorithm can be used for computing arbitrary jet cross sections in arbitrary processes and can be…
