The two-functional conjecture says that if a function f analytic and univalent in the unit disk maximizes Re{L} and Re{M} for two continuous linear functionals L and M, L is not equal to cM for any c>0, then f is a rotation of the Koebe…

Let X be a closed manifold of dimension 2m >= 6 with torsion-free middle-dimensional homology. We construct metrics on X of arbitrarily small volume, such that every middle-dimensional submanifold of less than unit volume necessarily…

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…

We establish a result linking the Bouniakowsky conjecture and the density of polynomial roots to prime moduli.

In this article we prove that the Weinstein conjecture holds for contact manifolds $(\Sigma,\xi)$ for which $\mathrm{Cont}_0(\Sigma,\xi)$ is non-orderable in the sense of Eliashberg-Polterovich [EP00]. More precisely, we establish a link…

We consider closed manifolds that admit a metric locally isometric to a product of symmetric planes. For such manifolds, we prove that the Euler characteristic is an obstruction to the existence of flat structures, confirming an old…

We prove many new cases of Zimmer's conjecture for actions by lattices in non-$\mathbb{R}$-split semisimple Lie groups $G$. By prior arguments, Zimmer's conjecture reduces to studying certain probability measures invariant under a minimal…

We prove that 1) There exist infinitely many non-trivial codimension one "thick" knots in $\mathbb{R}^5$; 2) For each closed four-dimensional smooth manifold $M$ and for each sufficiently small positive $\epsilon$ the set of isometry…

Let $u$ be a harmonic function in the unit ball $B(0,1) \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 3$, such that $u(0)=0$. Nadirashvili conjectured that there exists a positive constant $c$, depending on the dimension $n$ only, such that $H^{n-1}(\{u=0…

The notions of unimodular Minkowski and Hausdorff dimensions are defined in [arXiv:1807.02980] for unimodular random discrete metric spaces. The present paper is focused on the connections between these notions and the polynomial growth…

We prove some boundary rigidity results for the hemisphere under a lower bound for Ricci curvature. The main result can be viewed as the Ricci version of a conjecture of Min-Oo.

We prove a positive mass theorem for $n$-dimensional asymptotically flat manifolds with a non-compact boundary if either $3\leq n\leq 7$ or if $n\geq 3$ and the manifold is spin. This settles, for this class of manifolds, a question posed…

In this paper we consider Riemannian manifolds of dimension at least $3$, with nonnegative Ricci curvature and Euclidean Volume Growth. For every open bounded subset with smooth boundary we establish the validity of an optimal Minkowski…

In this article, we extend the compactness theorems proved by Sprouse and Hwang-Lee to a weighted manifold under the assumption that the weighted Ricci curvature is bounded below in terms of its weight function. With the help of the…

We prove Conjecture F from [VW12] which states that the complements of closures of certain strata of the symmetric power of a smooth irreducible complex variety exhibit rational homological stability. Moreover, we generalize this conjecture…

Kontsevich conjectured that $\text{BDiff}(M, \text{rel }\partial)$ has the homotopy type of a finite CW complex for all compact $3$-manifolds with non-empty boundary. Hatcher-McCullough proved this conjecture when $M$ is irreducible. We…

Consider a symplectic circle action on a closed symplectic manifold with non-empty isolated fixed points. Associated to each fixed point, there are well-defined non-zero integers, called weights. We prove that the action is Hamiltonian if…

In this article we establish an asymptotic formula for the number of rational points, with bounded denominators, within a given distance to a compact submanifold $\mathcal{M}$ of $\mathbb{R}^M$ with a certain curvature condition. Our result…

It is proved that if some boundary $B$ of a convex compact subset $X$ of a locally convex linear space has a countable network, then the convex compact space $X$ is metrizable. If the boundary $B$ is a Lindelof $\Sigma$-space, then the…

Let $Y$ be an algebraic manifold of dimension 3 with $H^i(Y, \Omega^j_Y)=0$ for all $j\geq 0$, $i>0$ and $h^0(Y, {\mathcal{O}}_Y) > 1$. Let $X$ be a smooth completion of $Y$ such that the boundary $X-Y$ is the support of an effective…
