Consider a smooth manifold $M$ equipped with a bracket generating distribution $D$. Two sub-Riemannian metrics on $(M,D)$ are said to be projectively (resp. affinely) equivalent if they have the same geodesics up to reparameterization…

We show that every real analytic action of a connected supersoluble Lie group on a compact surface with nonzero Euler characteristic has a fixed point. This implies that E. Lima's fixed point free $C^{\infty}$ action on $S^2$ of the affine…

We study the number of non-isomorphic functional graphs of affine-linear transformations from (\F_q)^n to itself, and we prove upper and lower bounds on this quantity for n large. As a corollary to our result, we prove bounds on the number…

Let $G$ be a group. A function $G\rightarrow G$ of the form $x\mapsto x^{\alpha}g$ for a fixed automorphism $\alpha$ of $G$ and a fixed $g\in G$ is called an affine map of $G$. In this paper, we study finite groups $G$ with an affine map of…

Surface charges and their algebra in interacting Lagrangian gauge field theories are investigated by using techniques from the variational calculus. In the case of exact solutions and symmetries, the surface charges are interpreted as a…

An $\mathcal{A}$-semigroup is a numerical semigroup without consecutive small elements. This work generalizes this concept to finite-complement submonoids of an affine cone $\mathcal{C}$. We develop algorithmic procedures to compute all…

In this paper, we study the problem of finding the affine factorable surfaces in a 3-dimensional isotropic space with prescribed Gaussian (K) and mean (H) curvature. Because the absolute figure two different types of these surfaces appear…

Let $U/K$ be a smooth affine curve over a number field and let $L$ be an irreducible rank 3 $\overline{\mathbb Q}_{\ell}$-local system on $U$ with trivial determinant and infinite geometric monodromy around a cusp. Suppose further that $L$…

For a finite set $A \subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, consider a function $u \in \mathrm{BV}_{\mathrm{loc}}^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$ such that $\nabla u \in A$ almost everywhere. If $A$ is convex independent, then it follows that $u$ is piecewise affine…

We prove that the space of affine, transversal at infinity, non-singular real cubic surfaces has 15 connected components. We give a topological criterion to distinguish them and show also how these 15 components are adjacent to each other…

We consider the function $x^{-1}$ that inverses a finite field element $x \in \mathbb{F}_{p^n}$ ($p$ is prime, $0^{-1} = 0$) and affine $\mathbb{F}_{p}$-subspaces of $\mathbb{F}_{p^n}$ such that their images are affine subspaces as well. It…

We study the affine analogue $\mathrm{FT}_p(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ of the triplet algebra. We show that $\mathrm{FT}_p(\mathfrak{sl}_2)$ is quasi-lisse and the associated variety is the nilpotent cone of $\mathfrak{sl}_2$. We realize…

Let K be a self-similar or self-affine set in R^d, let \mu be a self-similar or self-affine measure on it, and let G be the group of affine maps, similitudes, isometries or translations of R^d. Under various assumptions (such as separation…

For a semisimple real Lie group $G$ with an irreducible representation $\rho$ on a finite-dimensional real vector space $V$, we give a sufficient criterion on $\rho$ for existence of a group of affine transformations of $V$ whose linear…

We consider an integrable system in five unknowns having three quartics invariants. We show that the complex affine variety defined by putting these invariants equal to generic constants, completes into an abelian surface; the jacobian of a…

Grothendieck duality theory assigns to essentially-finite-type maps f of noetherian schemes a pseudofunctor f^\times right-adjoint to Rf_*, and a pseudofunctor f^! agreeing with f^\times when f is proper, but equal to the usual inverse…

We consider the most general 11 parameter parity even quadratic Metric-Affine Theory whose action consists of the usual Einstein-Hilbert plus the 11 quadratic terms in torsion, non-metricity as well as their mixing. By following a certain…

We show that within a $C^1$-neighbourhood $\mathcal{U}$ of the set of volume preserving Anosov diffeomorphisms on the three-torus $\mathbb{T}^3$ which are strongly partially hyperbolic with expanding center, any…

Dahmen and Schmeding have obtained the result that although the smooth Lie group $G$ of real analytic diffeomorphisms $\mathbb S^{\,1.}\to\mathbb S^{\,1.}$ has a compatible analytic manifold structure, it does not make $G$ a real analytic…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for an affine deformation of a Schottky subgroup of O(2,1) to act properly on affine space. There exists a real-valued biaffine map between the cohomology of the Schottky group and the space of…
