Let $X$ be a quasiprojective scheme. In this expository note we collect a series of useful structural results on the stack $\mathscr{C}oh^n(X)$ parametrising $0$-dimensional coherent sheaves of length $n$ over $X$. For instance, we discuss…

We provide a cohomological interpretation of the zeroth stable $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy group of a smooth curve over an infinite perfect field. We show that this group is isomorphic to the first Nisnevich (or Zariski) cohomology group of a…

The paper provides computations of the first non-vanishing $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy sheaves of the orthogonal Stiefel varieties which are relevant for the unstable isometry classification of quadratic forms over smooth affine schemes over…

In this article, we characterize the distortion elements of the group of smooth diffeomorphisms of the circle and of the group of compactly supported smooth diffeomorphisms of the real line. More precisely, we prove that, in this context,…

In this note, we prove -- in dimension at most 4 -- a conjectue of Hao which says that a morphism $f : X \to A$ to a simple abelian variety $A$ is smooth if and only if there is a 1-form pulled back from A without any zeros. We also give a…

We formulate and study a torsion analogue of the weight-monodromy conjecture for a proper smooth scheme over a non-archimedean local field. We prove it for proper smooth schemes over equal characteristic non-archimedean local fields,…

We classify the unipotent character sheaves on a fixed connected component of a reductive algebraic group under a mild hypothesis on the characteristic of the ground field.

For a reduced pure dimensional complex space $X$, we show that if Barlet's recently introduced sheaf $\alpha_X^1$ of holomorphic $1$-forms or the sheaf of germs of weakly holomorphic $1$-forms is locally free, then $X$ is smooth. Moreover,…

Let $X$ be a monoid scheme. We will show that the stalk at any point of $X$ defines a point of the topos $\Qc(X)$ of quasi-coherent sheaves over $X$. As it turns out, every topos point of $\Qc(X)$ is of this form if $X$ satisfies some…

Let $F$ be a field complete with respect to a discrete valuation whose residue field is perfect of characteristic $p>0$. We prove that every smooth, projective, geometrically irreducible curve of genus one defined over $F$ with a non-zero…

In this paper we describe projective curves and surfaces such that almost all their hyperplane sections are projectively equivalent. Our description is complete for curves and close to being complete for smooth surfaces. In the appendix we…

We show that if U is a hypercover of a topological space X then the natural map from hocolim U to X is a weak equivalence. This fact is used to construct topological realization functors for the A^1-homotopy theory of schemes over real and…

We give a positive answer to the Chavel's conjecture [J. Diff. Geom. 4 (1970), 13-20]: a simply connected rank one normal homogeneous space is symmetric if any pair of conjugate points are isotropic. It implies that all simply connected…

In this paper, we describe an algorithm that, for a smooth connected curve $X$ over a field $k$ with normal completion having arithmetic genus $p_a(X)$, a finite locally constant sheaf $\mathcal A$ on $X_{et}$ of abelian groups of torsion…

Let $(A, I)$ be a bounded prism, and $X$ be a smooth $p$-adic formal scheme over $\Spf(A/I)$. We consider the notion of crystals on Bhatt--Scholze's prismatic site $(X/A)_{\prism}$ of $X$ relative to $A$. We prove that if $X$ is proper over…

Let X be e quasi-compact and semi-separated scheme. If every at quasi- coherent sheaf has finite cotorsion dimension, we prove that X is n-perfect for some n > 0. If X is coherent and n-perfect(not necessarily of finite krull dimension), we…

We present the local classification of singularities of smooth vector fields on the line, with respect to the equivalence relation of $C^1$--conjugacy. Along the way, we recall the analogous classification, up to $C^0$ and $C^{\infty}$…

Given a graded monoid A with 1, one can construct a projective monoid scheme MProj(A) analogous to Proj(R) of a graded ring R. This paper is concerned with the study of quasicoherent sheaves (of pointed sets) on MProj(A), and we prove…

Let $K$ be a field. We study $\A^1$-contractibility of Koras--Russell type varieties defined by \[ \frac{K[x_1,\ldots,x_m,y,z,t]} {\langle x_m^2a(x_m)b(x_1,\ldots,x_{m-1})y+f(z,t)+x_m\rangle}. \] We prove that if such a variety is…

We prove sharp homogeneous improvements to $L^1$ weighted Hardy inequalities involving distance from the boundary. In the case of a smooth domain, we obtain lower and upper estimates for the best constant of the remainder term. These…
