Let $ f$ be a real-analytic function germ whose critical locus contains a given real-analytic set $ X $, and let $ Y $ be a germ of closed subset of $ \mathbb{R}^n $ at the origin. We study the stability of $ f $ under perturbations $ u $…
We generalize $F$-signature to pairs $(R,D)$ where $D$ is a Cartier subalgebra on $R$ as defined by the first two authors. In particular, we show the existence and positivity of the $F$-signature for any strongly $F$-regular pair. In one…
We show that a semisimple overconvergent "absolutely unit-root" F-isocrystal on a geometrically connected smooth variety over a finite field becomes constant over a finite covering.
We show that the ample degree of a stable theory with trivial forking is preserved when we consider the corresponding theory of belles paires, if it exists. This result also applies to the theory of $H$-structures of a trivial theory of…
This text presents a scheme-theoretic enhancement of the theory of smooth profinite groups and cyclotomic pairs, introduced in the paper `Smooth profinite groups, I'. To do so, our main technical tools are Hochschild cohomology of affine…
We study sum-free sets in sparse random subsets of even order abelian groups. In particular, we determine the sharp threshold for the following property: the largest such set is contained in some maximum-size sum-free subset of the group.…
Let A be a symmetric monoidal closed exact category. This category is a natural framework to define the notions of purity and flatness. We show that an object F in A is flat if and only if any conflation ending in F is pure. Furthermore, we…
We investigate higher dimensional chain conditions, where the largeness notion is given by Fubini products of a given ideal. From strong saturation properties of an ideal, we derive abstractly versions of higher dimensional $\Delta$-system…
We give an upper bound on the number of perfect matchings in an undirected simple graph $G$ with an even number of vertices, in terms of the degrees of all the vertices in $G$. This bound is sharp if $G$ is a union of complete bipartite…
We show that quasi-$F$-pure but not $F$-pure isolated quasi-homogeneous hypersurface singularities necessarily have $F$-pure threshold $1 - \frac{1}{p}$. This extends work of Bhatt and Singh beyond the Calabi-Yau case. We also classify the…
F-thresholds are defined by Mustata, Takagi and Watanabe in [F-thresholds and Bernstein-Sato polynomials], which are invariants of the pair of ideals on rings of characteristic $p$. In their paper, it is proved F-thresholds equal to jumping…
In this paper, we introduce a necessary condition for the existence of characteristic zero liftings of certain smooth, proper varieties in positive characteristic, using etale homotopy theory and Wall's finiteness obstruction. For a variety…
We prove Farber's conjecture on the stable topological complexity of configuration spaces of graphs. The conjecture follows from a general lower bound derived from recent insights into the topological complexity of aspherical spaces. Our…
This paper answers in the affirmative a question raised by Karl Schwede concerning an upper bound on the multiplicity of F-pure rings.
We prove Hochster's small MCM conjecture for three-dimensional complete F-pure rings. We deduce this from a more general criterion, and show that only a weakening of the notion of F-purity is needed, to wit, being weakly F-split. We…
Let (R,m) -> (S,n) be a flat local homomorphism of excellent local rings. We investigate the conditions under which the weak or strong F-regularity of R passes to S. We show that is suffices that the closed fiber S/mS be Gorenstein and…
In this paper we provide a sufficient condition for a Furstenberg measure generated by a finitely supported measure to be absolutely continuous. Using this, we give a very broad class of examples of absolutely continuous Furstenberg…
Let $X$ be the germ of a smooth complex variety at a given point $x\in {\mathbbb P}^N$ with regular osculation at order $q$ and suppose that, for any direction $v\in {\mathbbb P}T_xX$, there exists a rationnal normal curve locally contained…
A smooth variety is said to satisfy Condition (A) if every finite abelian subgroup of its automorphism group has a fixed point. We classify smooth Fano 3-folds that satisfy Condition (A).
We prove upper and lower bounds for the spectral condition number of rectangular Vandermonde matrices with nodes on the complex unit circle. The nodes are "off the grid", pairs of nodes nearly collide, and the studied condition number grows…
