This article gives an expository account of quasisyntomic descent and the Nygaard filtration in positive characteristic, complemented by several new applications to $p$-adic cohomology theories. The guiding result is a new approach to…
A linear map between matrix spaces is positive if it maps positive semidefinite matrices to positive semidefinite ones, and is called completely positive if all its ampliations are positive. In this article quantitative bounds on the…
One develops {\em ab initio} the theory of rational/birational maps over reduced, but not necessarily irreducible, projective varieties in arbitrary characteristic. A numerical invariant of a rational map is introduced, called the Jacobian…
We generalize the rationality theorem of the accumulation points of log canonical thresholds which was proved by Hacon, M\textsuperscript{c}Kernan, and Xu. Further, we apply the rationality to the ACC problem on the minimal log…
M. Hochster defines an invariant namely $\Theta(M,N)$ associated to two finitely generated module over a hyper-surface ring $R=P/f$, where $P=k\{x_0,...,x_n\}$ or $k[X_0,...,x_n]$, for $k$ a field and $f$ is a germ of holomorphic function…
We present a theory of the $b$-function (or Bernstein-Sato polynomial) in positive characteristic. Let $f$ be a non-constant polynomial with coefficients in a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>0.$ Its $b$-function $b_f$ is defined to…
For a real-valued non-negative and log-concave function we introduce a notion of difference function; the difference function represents a functional analog on the difference body of a convex body. We prove a sharp inequality which bounds…
Lemma 1 from the paper [N.E. Gretsky, J.M. Ostroy, W.R. Zame, Subdifferentiability and the duality gap, Positivity 6: 261--274, 2002] asserts that the value function $v$ of an infinite dimensional linear programming problem in standard form…
The asymptotic log-Harnack inequality is established for several different models of stochastic differential systems with infinite memory: non-degenerate SDEs, Neutral SDEs, semi-linear SPDEs, and stochastic Hamiltonian systems. As…
Let $\varphi$ be a plurisubharmonic function defined in a neighborhood of the origin in $\mathbb C^n$. For each real number $t>-n$, we associate to $\varphi$ the weighted log canonical threshold \[ c_t(\varphi):=\sup\Bigl\{c\geq…
Positive semidefinite Hermitian matrices that are not fully specified can be completed provided their underlying graph is chordal. If the matrix is positive definite the completion can be uniquely characterized as the matrix that maximizes…
A positive level Kazhdan-Lusztig functor is defined using Arkhipov-Gaitsgory duality for affine Lie algebras. The functor sends objects in the DG category of G(O)-equivariant positive level affine Lie algebra modules to objects in the DG…
The Bernstein-Sato polynomial is an important invariant of an element or an ideal in a polynomial ring or power series ring of characteristic zero, with interesting connections to various algebraic and topological aspects of the…
Let f be a polynomial over the complex numbers with an isolated singularity at 0. We show that the multiplicity and the log canonical threshold of f at 0 are invariants of the link of f viewed as a contact submanifold of the sphere. This is…

The presence of Lipschitzian properties for solution mappings associated with nonlinear parametric optimization problems is desirable in the context of stability analysis or bilevel optimization. An example of such a Lipschitzian property…
We give a new, direct proof of the tetrachotomy classification for the model-checking problem of positive equality-free logic parameterised by the model. The four complexity classes are Logspace, NP-complete, co-NP-complete and…
In this paper, we mainly propose improvements of the logarithmic difference lemma for meromorphic functions in several complex variables, and then investigate meromorphic solutions of partial difference equations from the viewpoint of…
We first study hyperplane sections of some singular schemes over a field. We prove a Bertini theorem for the log smoothness of generic hyperplane sections of a large class of log smooth schemes over a log point. We also give an abstract…
