We study degenerate complex Monge-Amp\`ere equations on a compact K\"ahler manifold $(X,\omega)$. We show that the complex Monge-Amp\`ere operator $(\omega + dd^c \cdot)^n$ is well-defined on the class ${\mathcal E}(X,\omega)$ of…

We develop a new concept of non-positive curvature for metric spaces, based on intersection patterns of closed balls. In contrast to the synthetic approaches of Alexandrov and Buesemann, our concept also applies to metric spaces that might…

The goal of this work is to prove the regularity of certain quasi-plurisubharmonic upper envelopes. Such envelopes appear in a natural way in the construction of hermitian metrics with minimal singularities on a big line bundle over a…

We investigate harmonic forms of geometrically formal metrics, which are defined as those having the exterior product of any two harmonic forms still harmonic. We prove that a formal Sasakian metric can exist only on a real cohomology…

Let $M$ be a smooth closed orientable surface. Let $F$ be the space of Morse functions on $M$ having fixed number of critical points of each index, moreover at least $\chi(M)+1$ critical points are labeled by different labels (enumerated).…

We describe some natural relations connecting contact geometry, classical Monge-Ampere equations and theory of singularities of solutions to nonlinear PDEs. They reveal the hidden meaning of Monge-Ampere equations and sheds new light on…

Let $X$ be a compact K\"ahler manifold whose anticanonical cohomology class is semipositive. Let $L$ be a big and semi-ample line bundle on $X$ and $\alpha$ be the Chern class of $L$. We give a sufficient condition ensuring that the…

We investigate $p$-adic automorphic forms on unitary groups through the geometry of infinite-level unitary Shimura varieties and the Hodge-Tate period map. We first develop a perfectoid construction of overconvergent automorphic forms.…

Let L be an ample line bundle on a smooth projective variety X over a non-archimedean field K. For a continuous metric on L, we show in the following two cases that the semipositive envelope is a continuous semipositive metric on L and that…

In the context of 4d effective gravity theories with 8 supersymmetries, we propose to unify, strenghten, and refine the several swampland conjectures into a single statement: the structural criterion, modelled on the structure theorem in…

The paper is devoted to metric properties of singularities. We investigate the relations among topology, metric properties and smoothness. In particular, we present some higher dimensional analogous of Mumford's theorem on smoothness of…

We prove that the monodromy diffeomorphism of a complex 2-dimensional isolated hypersurface singularity of weighted-homogeneous type has infinite order in the smooth mapping class group of the Milnor fiber, provided the singularity is not a…

For any countable $CW$-complex $K$ and a cardinal number $\tau\geq\omega$ we construct a completely metrizable space $X(K,\tau)$ of weight $\tau$ with the following properties: $\e X(K,\tau)\leq K$, $X(K,\tau)$ is an absolute extensor for…

We introduce the concept of non-Archimedean metrics attached to a transcendental pseudoeffective cohomology class on a compact K\"ahler manifold. This is obtained via extending the Ross-Witt Nystr\"om correspondence to the relative case,…

We obtain restrictions on the rational homotopy types of mapping spaces and of classifying spaces of homotopy automorphisms by means of the theory of positive weight decompositions. The theory applies, in particular, to connected components…

Let $(X,g)$ be a compact Riemannian stratified space with simple edge singularity. Thus a neighbourhood of the singular stratum is a bundle of truncated cones over a lower dimensional compact smooth manifold. We calculate the various…

Let $(M, g)$ be a compact real analytic Riemannian manifold and $\pi \colon \widetilde{M} \to M$ its universal cover. Assume that $\widetilde{M}$ can be realised as a manifold definable in an o-minimal structure $\Sigma$ expanding…

We introduce and analyze a Spencer-type elliptic complex on the space of differential forms valued in symmetric powers of an adjoint bundle, $\Omega^\bullet(X)\otimes \mathrm{Sym}^\bullet(G)$. The complex is governed by a total differential…

We establish a structure theorem on the arc space of a $k$-scheme of finite type. More precisely, we show that the arc space is locally for the pro-smooth toplogy a product of an infinite dimensional affine space and of a non-noetherian…

We characterize the class of probability measures on a compact Kahler manifold such that the associated Monge-Amp\`ere equation has a solution of finite pluricomplex energy. Our results are also valid in the big cohomology class setting.
