In this paper we prove that any smooth prime Fano threefold, different from the Mukai-Umemura threefold, contains a 1-dimensional family of intersecting lines. Combined with a result of the second author (see J. Algebr. Geom. 8:2 (1999),…
In this work we count the number of satisfying states of triangulations of a convex n-gon using the transfer matrix method. We show an exponential (in n) lower bound. We also give the exact formula for the number of satisfying states of a…
Takahasi and Higman independently proved that any ascending chain of subgroups of constant rank in a free group must stabilize. Kapovich and Myasnikov gave a proof of this fact in the language of graphs and Stallings folds. Using profinite…
The processes with three or more charged particles in the final state exhibit particular threshold behavior, as inferred by the famous Wannier law for (2e + ion) system. We formulate a general solution which determines the threshold…
We prove that the canonical volume $K^3\geq {1/30}$ for all projective 3-folds of general type with $\chi(\mathcal{O})\leq 0$. This bound is sharp.
Let $n\geq 2$ be any integer. We study the optimal lower bound $v_{n, n-i}$ of the canonical volume and the optimal upper bound $r_{n,n-i}$ of the canonical stability index for minimal projective $n$-folds of general type, which are…
We prove that a smooth complex projective threefold with a K\"ahler metric of negative holomorphic sectional curvature has ample canonical line bundle. In dimensions greater than three, we prove that, under equal assumptions, the nef…
Under large cardinal hypotheses beyond the Kunen inconsistency -- hypotheses so strong as to contradict the Axiom of Choice -- we solve several variants of the generalized continuum problem and identify structural features of the levels…
We establish the canonical class inequality for families of higher dimensional projective manifolds. As an application, we get a new inequality between the Chern numbers of 3-folds with smooth families of minimal surfaces of general type…
Let X,X_1,X_2,... be independent identically distributed random variables and let h(x,y)=h(y,x) be a measurable function of two variables. It is shown that the bounded law of the iterated logarithm, $\limsup_n (n\log\log n)^{-1}|\sum_{1<=…
In this article, we extend the notion of the $F$-thresholds of ideals to the $F$-thresholds for filtrations of ideals. The existence of $F$-thresholds of filtrations are established for various types of filtrations. Moreover, various…
A function $f: \mathbb{F}_2^n \rightarrow \{0,1\}$ is triangle-free if there are no $x_1,x_2,x_3 \in \mathbb{F}_2^n$ satisfying $x_1+x_2+x_3=0$ and $f(x_1)=f(x_2)=f(x_3)=1$. In testing triangle-freeness, the goal is to distinguish with high…
In this paper we study random linear systems with $k$ variables per equation over the finite field GF(2), or equivalently $k$-XOR-CNF formulas. In a previous paper Creignou and Daud\'e proved that the phase transition for the consistency…
We show various supercongruences for truncated series which involve central binomial coefficients and harmonic numbers. The corresponding infinite series are also evaluated.
We compute global log canonical thresholds of certain birationally bi-rigid Fano 3-folds embedded in weighted projective spaces as complete intersections of codimension 2 and prove that they admit an orbifold K\"{a}hler-Einstein metric and…
We explicitly find lower bounds on the volume of threefolds and fourfolds of general type in order to have nonvanishing of pluricanonical systems and birationality of pluricanonical maps. In the case of threefolds of large volume, we also…
It is known that a minimal teaching set of any threshold function on the twodimensional rectangular grid consists of 3 or 4 points. We derive exact formulae for the numbers of functions corresponding to these values and further refine them…
In this paper we prove the "Tiling implies Spectral" part of Fuglede's paper for the case of three intervals. Then we prove the "Spectral implies Tiling" part of the conjecture for the case of three equal intervals as also when the…
We prove that every set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^3$ spans $O(n^{295/197+\epsilon})$ unit distances. This is an improvement over the previous bound of $O(n^{3/2})$. A key ingredient in the proof is a new result for cutting circles in…
If R is a local ring of dimension n, of a smooth complex variety, and if I is a zero dimensional ideal in R, then we prove that e(I)\geq n^n/lc(I)^n. Here e(I) is the Samuel multiplicity along I, and lc(I) is the log canonical threshold of…
