We present proofs of the basic isopermetric structure theory, obtaining some new simplified proofs. As an application, we obtain simple descriptions for subsets $S$ of an abelian group with $|kS|\le k|S|-k+1$ or $|kS-rS|- (k+r)|S|,$ where…

We prove that quasi-plurisubharmonic envelopes with prescribed analytic singularities in suitable big cohomology classes on compact K\"ahler manifolds have the optimal $C^{1,1}$ regularity on a Zariski open set. This also proves regularity…

We open a new perspective on the sup-norm problem and propose a version for non-spherical Maass forms when the maximal compact K is non-abelian and the dimension of the K-type gets large. We solve this problem for an arithmetic quotient of…

The goal of this dissertation is to present synthetic homotopy theory in the setting of homotopy type theory. We will present various results in this framework, most notably the construction of the Atiyah-Hirzebruch and Serre spectral…

This is a series of three lectures I gave at the Korea Institute of Advanced Study in June 2019 at a workshop about "Algebraic and Symplectic Aspects of Degenerations of Complex Surfaces". I focus on the symplectic aspects, in particular on…

The cofinality quantifiers were introduced by Shelah as an example of a compact logic stronger than first-order logic. We show that the classes of models axiomatized by these quantifiers can be turned into an Abstract Elementary Class by…

Recently in graph theory several authors have studied the spectrum of the Cayley graph of the symmetric group S_n generated by the transpositions (1, i) for 2 <= i <= n. Several conjectures were made and partial results were obtained. The…

In 1995, D. Jerison and C. Kenig in \cite{JK-1995} considered the the inhomogeneous Dirichlet problem $\Delta u= f$ on $\Omega$, $u=0$ on $\partial\Omega$ in Lipschitz domains. One of their main results shows that the $W^{1,p}$ estimate…

Korten and Pitassi (FOCS, 2024) defined a new complexity class $L_2^P$ as the polynomial-time Turing closure of the Linear Ordering Principle. They put it between $MA$ (Merlin--Arthur protocols) and $S_2^P$ (the second symmetric level of…

In this paper, we showcase the class XNLP as a natural place for many hard problems parameterized by linear width measures. This strengthens existing $W[1]$-hardness proofs for these problems, since XNLP-hardness implies $W[t]$-hardness for…
