We consider heterotic E8xE8 supergravity compactified on smooth Calabi-Yau manifolds with line bundle gauge backgrounds. Infinite sets of models that satisfy the Bianchi identities and flux quantization conditions can be constructed by…

Let $X$ be a Banach space. We study the circumstances under which there exists an uncountable set $\mathcal A\subset X$ of unit vectors such that $\|x-y\|>1$ for distinct $x,y\in \mathcal A$. We prove that such a set exists if $X$ is…

For proper surjective holomorphic maps from K"ahler manifolds to analytic spaces, we give a decomposition theorem for the cohomology groups of the canonical bundle twisted by Nakano semi-positive vector bundles by means of the higher direct…

We extend the dimension and strong linearity results of generic vanishing theory to bundles of holomorphic forms and rank one local systems, and more generally to certain coherent sheaves of Hodge-theoretic origin associated to irregular…

We discuss secondary (and higher) characteristic classes for algebraic vector bundles with trivial top Chern class. We show that if X is a smooth affine scheme of dimension d over a field k of finite 2-cohomological dimension (with char(k)…

We generalize a construction of Hitchin to prove that, given any compact K\"ahler manifold $M$ with positive holomorphic sectional curvature and any holomorphic vector bundle $E$ over $M$, the projectivized vector bundle ${\mathbb P}(E)$…

Suppose $\Cal R$ is the complement of an essential arrangement of toric hyperlanes in the complex torus $(\C^*)^n$ and $\pi=\pi_1(\Cal R)$. We show that $H^*(\Cal R;A)$ vanishes except in the top degree $n$ when $A$ is one of the following…

Let $G$ be a group which is either virtually soluble or virtually free, and let $\omega$ be a weight on $G$. We prove that, if $G$ is infinite, then there is some maximal left ideal of finite codimension in the Beurling algebra $\ell^1(G,…

King's conjecture states that on every smooth complete toric variety $X$ there exists a strongly exceptional collection which generates the bounded derived category of $X$ and which consists of line bundles. We give a counterexample to this…

A recent theorem of Diverio--Trapani and Wu--Yau asserts that a compact K\"ahler manifold with a K\"ahler metric of quasi-negative holomorphic sectional curvature is projective and canonically polarized. This confirms a long-standing…

This paper contains a Kawamata-Viehweg-Koll\'ar type vanishing theorem for vector bundles. In order to formulate and prove this cleanly, we introduce a class of sheaves that automatically satisfies a vanishing theorem. This is obtained by…

We prove a Cayley-Bacharach-type theorem for points in projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ that lie on a complete intersection of $n$ hypersurfaces. This is made possible by new bounds on the growth of the Hilbert function of almost complete…

Let $A$ be a semisimple Banach algebra with non-trivial, and possibly infinite-dimensional socle. Addressing a problem raised by Harte and Hernandez, we first define a characteristic polynomial for elements belonging to the socle, and we…

A few years ago, Huneke and Leuschke proved a theorem which solved a conjecture of Schreyer. It asserts that an excellent Cohen-Macaulay local ring of countable Cohen-Macaulay type which is complete or has uncountable residue field has at…

Let G be a real reductive group and Z=G/H a unimodular homogeneous G-space. The space Z is said to satisfy VAI if all smooth vectors in the Banach representations L^{p}(Z) vanish at infinity, 1 <=p. For H connected we show that Z satisfies…

For a compact Lie group G we define a regularized version of the Dolbeault cohomology of a G-equivariant holomorphic vector bundles over non-compact Kahler manifolds. The new cohomology is infinite-dimensional, but as a representation of G…

The Module Cancellation Problem solicits hypotheses that, when imposed on modules $K$, $L$, and $M$ over a ring $S$, afford the implication $K\oplus L\cong K\oplus M\Longrightarrow L\cong M$. In a well-known paper on basic element theory…

We study the relationship between positivity of line bundles restricted to complete intersection subvarieties and the vanishing of higher cohomology groups. Based on this connection we prove generalizations of the vanishing theorems of…

In \cite{Broer1993}, it was shown that certain line bundles on $\widetilde{\mathcal{N}}=T^*G/B$ have vanishing higher cohomology. We prove a generalization of this theorem for real reductive algebraic groups. More specifically, if…

We study self-extensions of modules over symmetric artin algebras. We show that non-projective modules with eventually vanishing self-extensions must lie in AR components of stable type $\mathbb{Z}A_{\infty}$. Moreover, the degree of the…
