We generalize the formula for the log canonical threshold(LCT) of plane curves over the complex numbers to arbitrary characteristics. Our proof relies purely on valuation theory, instead of on the theory of $D$-modules.

We present a new relation between an invariant of singularities in characteristic zero (the log canonical threshold) and an invariant of singularities defined via the Frobenius morphism in positive characteristic (the F-pure threshold). We…

Given any asymptotically flat 3-manifold $(M,g)$ with smooth, non-empty, compact boundary $\Sigma$, the conformal conjecture states that for every $\delta>0$, there exists a metric $g' = u^4 g$, with $u$ a harmonic function, such that the…

Using iterated vanishing cycles and convolution, we prove a motivic version of a conjecture of Steenbrink concerning the spectrum of hypersurface singularities

We prove that the $abc$-Conjecture implies upper bounds on Zsigmondy sets that are uniform over families of unicritical polynomials over number fields. As an application, we use the $abc$-Conjecture to prove that there exist uniform bounds…

We present a new uniform method for studying modal companions of superintuitionistic rule systems and related notions, based on the machinery of stable canonical rules. Using this method, we obtain alternative proofs of the Blok-Esakia…

Using the circle method, we count integer points on complete intersections in biprojective space in boxes of different side length, provided the number of variables is large enough depending on the degree of the defining equations and…

We investigate exponential sums over those numbers $\leq x$ all of whose prime factors are $\leq y$. We prove fairly good minor arc estimates, valid whenever $\log^{3}x \leq y \leq x^{1/3}$. Then we prove sharp upper bounds for the $p$-th…

We prove Fujita's log spectrum conjecture. It follows from the ACC of a suitable set of pseudo-effective thresholds.

We show that a weak version of the canonical bundle formula holds for fibrations of relative dimension one. We provide various applications thereof, for instance, using the recent result of Xu and Zhang, we prove the log non-vanishing…

This paper proposes a Fujita-type freeness conjecture for semi-log canonical pairs. We prove it for curves and surfaces by using the theory of quasi-log schemes and give some effective very ampleness results for stable surfaces and semi-log…

The goal of this article is to obtain a proof of the Main conjectures of Iwasawa theory for rational elliptic curves over anticyclotomic extensions of imaginary quadratic fields, under mild arithmetic assumptions, both in the case where the…

We prove the remaining part of the conjecture by Denef and Sperber [Denef, J. and Sperber, S., \textit{Exponential sums mod $p^n$ and {N}ewton polyhedra}, Bull. Belg. Math. Soc., {\bf{suppl.}} (2001) 55-63] on nondegenerate local…

Manin's conjecture predicts the asymptotic behavior of the number of rational points of bounded height on algebraic varieties. For toric varieties, it was proved by Batyrev and Tschinkel via height zeta functions and an application of the…

We investigate infinitary wellfounded systems for linear logic with fixed points, with transfinite branching rules indexed by some closure ordinal $\alpha$ for fixed points. Our main result is that provability in the system for some…

We study the \L ojasiewicz exponent and the log canonical threshold of ideals of $\mathcal O_n$ when restricted to generic subspaces of $\mathbb C^n$ of different dimensions. We obtain effective formulas of the resulting numbers for ideals…

We adapt a number-theoretic technique of Yu to prove a purely analytic theorem: if f(x) is in L^1 and L^2, is nonnegative, and is supported on an interval of length I, then the supremum of the convolution f*f is at least 0.631 \| f \|_1^2 /…

We consider the problem of model selection type aggregation in the context of density estimation. We first show that empirical risk minimization is sub-optimal for this problem and it shares this property with the exponential weights…

Refining an argument of the second author, we improve the known bounds for the number of rational points near a submanifold of $\mathbb{R}^d$ of intermediate dimension under a natural curvature condition. Furthermore, in the codimension $2$…

We discuss the method of bounding suprema of canonical processes based on the inclusion of their index set into a convex hull of a well-controlled set of points. While the upper bound is immediate, the reverse estimate was established to…
