We prove that Alexandrov's conjecture relating the area and diameter of a convex surface holds for the surface of a general ellipsoid. This is a direct consequence of a more general result which estimates the deviation from the optimal…
Suppose that $f \colon X \dashrightarrow X$ is a dominant rational self-map of a smooth projective variety defined over ${\overline{\mathbf Q}}$. Kawaguchi and Silverman conjectured that if $P \in X({\overline{\mathbf Q}})$ is a point with…
Let $S$ be a smooth projective surface with $p_g=0$, let $\iota $ be a regular involution acting on $S$, and let $W$ be the resolution of singularities of the quotient surface $S/\iota $. In the paper we prove that Bloch's conjecture holds…
The doubling conjecture predicts that a manifold admits positive scalar curvature with mean convex boundary if and only if its double admits positive scalar curvature. We show that it holds true for manifolds where the inclusion of the…
Miyanishi conjecture claims that for any variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, any endomorphism of such a variety which is injective outside a closed subset of codimension at least $2$ is bijective. We prove…
We prove the existence of nontrivial closed surfaces with constant anisotropic mean curvature with respect to elliptic integrands in closed smooth $3$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. The constructed min-max surfaces are smooth with at…
Irreducible symplectic varieties are higher-dimensional analogues of K3 surfaces. In this paper, we prove the Shafarevich conjecture for irreducible symplectic varieties of fixed deformation class. We also observe that the second…
The canonical degree $C.K_X$ of an integral curve on a smooth projective surface $X$ is conjecturally bounded from above by an expression of the form $A(g-1)+B$, where $g$ is the geometric genus of $C$ and $A$, $B$ are constants depending…
Let $X$ be a normal projective variety admitting a polarized endomorphism $f$, i.e., $f^*H\sim qH$ for some ample divisor $H$ and integer $q>1$. Then Broustet and Gongyo proposed the conjecture that $X$ is of Calabi-Yau type (CY for short),…
Kollar and Ruan proved symplectic deformation invariance for uniruledness of Kaehler manifolds. Zhiyu Tian proved the same for rational connectedness in dimension < 4. Kollar conjectured this in all dimensions. We prove Kollar's conjecture,…
We study symplectic minimal resolutions of weighted projective planes $\mathbb{CP}(a,b,c)$ from the perspective of disconnected symplectic divisors with symplectic log Kodaira dimension $-\infty$. Building on the techniques developed in our…
Throughout this paper we study the existence of irreducible curves C on smooth projective surfaces S with singular points of prescribed topological types S_1,...,S_r. There are necessary conditions for the existence of the type \sum_{i=1}^r…
We reveal a complex analogue to a result about polynomial solutions to the Dirichlet Problem on ellipsoids in $\mathbb{R}^n$ by showing that the Bergman projection on any ellipsoid in $\mathbb{C}^n$ is such that the projection of any…
We prove the relative index conjecture, which in turn implies that the set of embeddable deformations of a strictly pseudoconvex CR-structure on a compact 3-manifold is closed in the C\infty-topology.
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, and $f$ a dynamical correspondence of $X$. In 2016, the second author conjectured that the dynamical degrees of $f$ defined by the…
We prove the following special case of Mazur's conjecture on the topology of rational points. Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ with $j$-invariant $1728$. For a class of elliptic pencils which are quadratic twists of $E$ by…
We use Iwasawa theory, at a prime $p$ inert in a quadratic imaginary field $K$, to study the arithmetic properties of mock plectic invariants for elliptic curves of rank two. More precisely, under some minor technical assumptions, we prove…
Let D be a division algebra with center F. A maximal subfield of D is defined to be a field K such that CD(K) = K; that is, K is its own centralizer in D. A maximal subfield K is said to be self-invariant if it normalises by itself, i.e.…
Towards the Lang--Vojta conjecture, we prove results on finiteness and Zariski degeneracy of $S$-integral points of varieties over number fields $k$, including many cases with geometrically irreducible boundary divisors. Our approach builds…
In this paper, we study the Calabi-Yau conjectures for complete minimal hypersurfaces $\Sigma^{n}\subset \mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ in dimensions $n\ge 3$. These conjectures ask whether a complete minimal hypersurface must be unbounded, and more…
