This paper investigates the projectivization of real vector bundles over small covers. We first give a necessary and sufficient condition for such a projectivization to be a small cover. Then associated with moment-angle manifolds, we…

Sections of line bundles on 2 dimensional surfaces in 3 dimensional space can have many distinct shapes. For practical purposes we prefer smooth sections that are visibly easy to follow. This is why smoothing operators have been developed…

Given a real projective curve with homogeneous coordinate ring R and a nonnegative homogeneous element f in R, we bound the degree of a nonzero homogeneous sum-of-squares g in R such that the product fg is again a sum of squares. Better…

The geometry of divisors on algebraic curves has been studied extensively over the years. The foundational results of this Brill-Noether theory imply that on a general curve, the spaces parametrizing linear series (of fixed degree and…

We consider Dirichlet Laplacians on straight strips in R^2 or layers in R^3 with a weak local deformation. First we generalize a result of Bulla et al. to the three-dimensional situation showing that weakly coupled bound states exist if the…

We consider the question: ``How bad can the deformation space of an object be?'' The answer seems to be: ``Unless there is some a priori reason otherwise, the deformation space may be as bad as possible.'' We show this for a number of…

We address the problem of bounding from below the self-intersection of integral curves on the projective plane blown-up at general points. In particular, by applying classical deformation theory we obtain the expected bound in the case of…

In this paper we study the positivity of the cotangent bundle of projective manifolds. We conjecture that the cotangent bundle is pseudoeffective if and only the manifold has non-zero symmetric differentials. We confirm this conjecture for…

We study smooth bundles over surfaces with highly connected almost parallelizable fiber $M$ of even dimension, providing necessary conditions for a manifold to be bordant to the total space of such a bundle and showing that, in most cases,…

The bulk-boundary correspondence, a topic of intensive research interest over the past decades, is one of the quintessential ideas in the physics of topological quantum matter. Nevertheless, it has not been proven in all generality and has…

Using event-driven molecular dynamics simulations, we quantify how the self diffusivity of confined hard-sphere fluids depends on the nature of the confining boundaries. We explore systems with featureless confining boundaries that treat…

Formulas are derived for solutions of many-body wave scattering problems by small particles in the case of acoustically soft, hard, and impedance particles embedded in an inhomogeneous medium. The case of transmission (interface) boundary…

In the first part of the paper boundary-value problems are considered under weak assumptions on the smoothness of the domains. We assume nothing about smoothness of the boundary $\partial D$ of a bounded domain $D$ when the homogeneous…

We give the first examples of nef line bundles on smooth projective varieties over finite fields which are not semi-ample. More concretely, we find smooth curves on smooth projective surfaces over finite fields such that the normal bundle…

Let $\mathcal F$ denote the fundamental domain for $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ on the upper half plane $\mathcal H$. William Duke showed that as fundamental discriminants $D \to -\infty$, the sets $\mathrm{CM}_{D}$ (CM points of discriminant…

We systematically study the splitting of vector bundles on a smooth, projective variety, whose restriction to the zero locus of a regular section of an ample vector bundle splits. First, we find ampleness and genericity conditions which…

We obtain (essentially sharp) boundedness results for certain generalized local maximal operators between fractional weighted Sobolev spaces and their modifications. Concrete boundedness results between well known fractional Sobolev spaces…

On negatively curved compact manifolds, it is possible to associate to every closed form a bounded cocycle - hence a bounded cohomology class - via integration over straight simplices. The kernel of this map is contained in the space of…

We introduce the notion of $\epsilon$-irreducibility for arithmetic cycles meaning that the degree of its analytic part is small compared to the degree of its irreducible classical part. We will show that for every $\epsilon>0$ any…

Given a real closed field $R$, we identify exactly four proper reducts of $R$ which expand the underlying (unordered) $R$-vector space structure. Towards this theorem we introduce a new notion, of strongly bounded reducts of linearly…
