We give some new methods, based on Lipschitz extension theorems, for bounding filling invariants of subsets of nonpositively curved spaces. We apply our methods to find sharp bounds on higher-order Dehn functions of Sol_{2n+1}, horospheres…
We answer a question of Peikert and Rosen by giving for each $\epsilon > 0$ an efficient construction of infinite families of number fields $N$ such that the root discriminant $D_N^{1/[N:\mathbb{Q}]}$ is bounded above by a constant times…
We prove finiteness results on integral points on complements of large divisors in projective varieties over finitely generated fields of characteristic zero. To do so, we prove a function field analogue of arithmetic finiteness results of…
We develop the theory of generalized Weierstrass sigma- and \wp-functions defined on a trigonal curve of genus three. In particular we give a list of the associated partial differential equations satisfied by the \wp-functions, a proof that…
We study the Weierstrass preparation and division theorems over arbitrary test rings and the local structure of singularities in the space of nondegenerate arcs on algebraic varieties. As an application, we prove a strengthened version of a…
We give finite presentations for the fundamental group of moduli stacks of smooth Weierstrass curves over complex projective space P^n which extend the classical result for elliptic curves to positive dimensional base. We thus get natural…
Divergence functions of a metric space estimate the length of a path connecting two points $A$, $B$ at distance $\le n$ avoiding a large enough ball around a third point $C$. We characterize groups with non-linear divergence functions as…
We develop a Mayer-Vietoris sequence for the analytic structure group explored by Higson and Roe. Using explicit formulas for Mayer-Vietoris boundary maps, we give a new proof and generalizations of Roe's partitioned manifold index theorem.
Starting from the Weierstrass elliptic function, we study the associated Frobenius structure, incorporating the perspective of derived categories, particularly that of homological mirror symmetry. Given a deformation of the Weierstrass…
This is a version of the author's diploma thesis written at the University of Cologne in 2002/03. The topic is the construction of Seiberg-Witten invariants of closed 3-manifolds. In analogy to the four dimensional case, the structure of…
We obtain bounds for the Faltings's delta function for any Riemann surface of genus greater than one. The bounds are in terms of the genus of the surface and two basic quantities coming from hyperbolic geometry: The length of the shortest…
Rational curves on Hilbert schemes of points on $K3$ surfaces and generalised Kummer manifolds are constructed by using Brill-Noether theory on nodal curves on the underlying surface. It turns out that all wall divisors can be obtained, up…
We consider a univalent analytic function $f$ on the half-plane satisfying the condition that the supremum norm of its (pre-)Schwarzian derivative vanishes on the boundary. Under certain extra assumptions on $f$, we show that there exists a…
We study the restriction of the Fourier transform to quadratic surfaces in vector spaces over finite fields. In two dimensions, we obtain the sharp result by considering the sums of arbitrary two elements in the subset of quadratic surfaces…
We establish the $L^p$ resolvent estimates for the Stokes operator in Lipschitz domains in $R^d$, $d\ge 3$ for $|\frac{1}{p}-1/2|< \frac{1}{2d} +\epsilon$. The result, in particular, implies that the Stokes operator in a three-dimensional…
In this paper, we consider the hull of an algebraic geometry code, meaning the intersection of the code and its dual. We demonstrate how codes whose hulls are algebraic geometry codes may be defined using only rational places of Kummer…
For Kummer extensions defined by $y^m = f (x)$, where $f (x)$ is a separable polynomial over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, we compute the number of Weierstrass gaps at two totally ramified places. For many totally ramified places we give…
Suppose that $\Omega$ is a lattice in the complex plane and let $\sigma$ be the corresponding Weierstrass $\sigma$-function. Assume that the point $\tau$ associated to $\Omega$ in the standard fundamental domain has imaginary part at most…
We construct quasi-Hopf algebras quantizing double extensions of the Manin pairs of Drinfeld, associated to a curve with a meromorphic differential, and the Lie algebra sl(2). This construction makes use of an analysis of the vertex…
This article provides a brief discussion of the functional of super Riemann surfaces from the point of view of classical (i.e. not "super-) differential geometry. The discussion is based on symmetry considerations and aims to clarify the…
