This is the third in a sequence of three papers in which we prove the following generalization of Thomassen's 5-choosability theorem: Let $G$ be a finite graph embedded on a surface of genus $g$. Then $G$ can be $L$-colored, where $L$ is a…
Fano resonances in photonics arise from the coupling and interference between two resonant modes in structures with broken symmetry. They feature an uneven and narrow and tunable lineshape, and are ideally suited for optical spectroscopy.…
We study some Huybrechts and Lehn framed sheaves on the Fano 3-fold given by blowing-up the 3-projective space at a point. In contrast with the cases of curves and surfaces, there are very few examples in higher dimensions. In this notes we…
We present a new and robust approach for interpreting the physics of Fano resonances in planar oligomer structures of both metallic and dielectric nanoparticles. We reveal a key mechanism for Fano resonances by demonstrating that such…
We study the spaces of rational curves on Fano threefolds with Gorenstein terminal singularities. We generalize the results regarding Geometric Manin's Conjecture for smooth Fano threefolds, including the classification of subvarieties with…
This is a treatise on finite point configurations spanning a fixed volume to be found in a single color-class of an arbitrary finite (measurable) coloring of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, or in a single large measurable subset…
We construct prime Fano manifolds from spin representations of $Spin_n$ for $n\le 14$. In this range, and if $n\ne 13$, the projectivizations of these representations are prehomogeneous, and we deduce that our Fano manifolds are locally…
This is the first of a series of three papers which provide proofs of results announced recently in arXiv:1210.7494.
We construct a family of Fano fourfolds with the derived category of coherent sheaves of a general Enriques surface as semiorthogonal component. This improves a result of Kuznetsov, lowering the Fano dimension of a general Enriques surface…
Small codimensional embedded manifolds defined by equations of small degree are Fano and covered by lines. They are complete intersections exactly when the variety of lines through a general point is so and has the right codimension. This…
The stellar haloes of galaxies can currently be studied either through observations of resolved halo stars or through surface photometry. Curiously, the two methods appear to give conflicting results, as a number of surface photometry…
We show an intriguing connection between the coherence of spectral domain interference of two electromagnetic modes in Fano resonance and the resulting degree of polarization of light. A theoretical treatment is developed by combining a…
We prove the Hasse principle for a smooth projective variety $X\subset \PP^{n-1}_\Q$ defined by a system of two cubic forms $F,G$ as long as $n\geq 39$. The main tool here is the development of a version of Kloosterman refinement for a…
In this paper, we study fan-planar drawings that use $h$ layers and are proper, i.e., edges connect adjacent layers. We show that if the embedding of the graph is fixed, then testing the existence of such drawings is fixed-parameter…
We prove that every globally $F$-regular variety is log Fano. In other words, if a prime characteristic variety $X$ is globally $F$-regular, then it admits an effective $\bQ$-divisor $\Delta$ such that $-K_X - \Delta$ is ample and $(X,…
We classify the cones of curves of Fano varieties of dimension greater or equal than five and (pseudo)index dim X -3, describing the number and type of their extremal rays.
We prove results about 1-cycles on certain Fano varieties using techniques that rely on rational curves. Firstly, we show that Fano weighted complete intersections with index bigger than half their dimension have trivial first Griffiths…
We consider some coloring issues related to the famous Erd\H {o}s Discrepancy Problem. A set of the form $A_{s,k}=\{s,2s,\dots,ks\}$, with $s,k\in \mathbb{N}$, is called a \emph{homogeneous arithmetic progression}. We prove that for every…
Helly's theorem is a classical result concerning the intersection patterns of convex sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$. Two important generalizations are the colorful version and the fractional version. Recently, B\'{a}r\'{a}ny et al. combined the…
The $q$-Fano plane is the $q$-analog of the Steiner system $S(2,3,7)$. For any given prime power $q$ it is not known whether the $q$-Fano plane exists or not. We consider the structure of the $q$-Fano plane for any given $q$ and conclude…
