Let $V$ be a highest weight module over a Kac-Moody algebra $\mathfrak{g}$, and let conv $V$ denote the convex hull of its weights. We determine the combinatorial isomorphism type of conv $V$, i.e. we completely classify the faces and their…

Joint spectral measures associated to the rank two Lie group $G_2$, including the representation graphs for the irreducible representations of $G_2$ and its maximal torus, nimrep graphs associated to the $G_2$ modular invariants have been…

Let G be a semi-simple algebraic group over the complex numbers, B a Borel subgroup of G, T a maximal torus in B and P a parabolic in G containing B. This paper deals with singularities of T-stable subvarieties of G/P. It turns out that…

The main result asserts: Let $G$ be a reductive, affine algebraic group and let $(\rho ,V)$ be a regular representation of $G$. Let $X$ be an irreducible $\mathbb{C}^{ \times } G$ invariant Zariski closed subset such that $G$ has a closed…

All varieties, extremal contractions, singularities are divided on exceptional and non-exceptional ones. Roughly speaking, there are the infinite families of non-exceptional varieties, extremal contractions or singularities and only the…

We develop a new method for establishing the extremality in the closed cone of effective curves on the moduli space of curves and determine the extremality of many boundary $1$-strata. As a consequence, by using a general criterion for…

In the monograph arXiv:2108.03453, we define the notion of a unipotent representation of a complex reductive group. The representations we define include, as a proper subset, all special unipotent representations in the sense of…

We study the inverse Compton scattering of solar photons by Galactic cosmic-ray electrons. We show that the gamma-ray emission from this process is substantial with the maximum flux in the direction of the Sun; the angular distribution of…

Inverse Compton scattering appears to play a more important role in the diffuse Galactic continuum emission than previously thought, from MeV to GeV energies. We compare models having a large inverse Compton component with EGRET data, and…

We extend the investigation of nonextremal enhancons, finding the most general solutions with the correct symmetry and charges. There are two families of solutions. One of these contains a solution with a regular horizon found previously;…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for extremality of a supermodular function based on its min-representation by means of (vertices of) the corresponding core polytope. The condition leads to solving a certain simple linear…

Let $R$ be an algebra over a ring $\Bbbk$, $T$ an $R$-algebra, $M$ a finitely generated projective $R$-module, and $N$ a $T$-module. Let $G$ be a linearly reductive group scheme over $\Bbbk$ equipped with a representation…

We consider blowups at a general point of weighted projective planes and, more generally, of toric surfaces with Picard number one. We give a unifying construction of negative curves on these blowups such that all previously known families…

The theory of regular model sets is highly developed, but does not cover examples such as the visible lattice points, the k-th power-free integers, or related systems. They belong to the class of weak model sets, where the window may have a…

Suppose that G is a finite, unitary reflection group acting on a complex vector space V and X is the fixed point subspace of an element of G. Define N to be the setwise stabilizer of X in G, Z to be the pointwise stabilizer, and C=N/Z. Then…

Convex or concave sequences of $n$ positive terms, viewed as vectors in $n$-space, constitute convex cones with $2n-2$ and $n$ extreme rays, respectively. Explicit description is given of vectors spanning these extreme rays, as well as of…

We introduce the notion of weighted singular vectors and weighted uniform exponent with respect to a set of weights. We prove invariance of these exponents for affine subspaces and submanifolds inside those affine subspaces. For certain…

A central topic in extremal graph theory is the supersaturation problem, which studies the minimum number of copies of a fixed substructure that must appear in any graph with more edges than the corresponding Tur\'an number. Significant…

Let $X$ be an orthogonal Shimura variety associated to a unimodular lattice. We investigate the polyhedrality of the cone $\mathcal{C}_X$ of special cycles of codimension 2 on $X$. We show that the rays generated by such cycles accumulate…
