In this paper the three-dimensional divisorial contractions $f\colon Y\to (X\ni P)$ are classified provided that $\Exc f=E$ is an irreducible divisor, $f(E)=P$, the variety $Y$ has canonical singularities and $(X\ni P)$ is a toric terminal…

A characterization of a class of optimal three-weight cyclic codes of dimension 3 over any finite field was recently presented in [10]. Shortly after this, a generalization for the sufficient numerical conditions of such characterization…

We study the problem of finding the largest number $T(n, m)$ of ternary vectors of length $n$ such that for any three distinct vectors there are at least $m$ coordinates where they pairwise differ. For $m = 1$, this is the classical…

This paper establishes quantitative correlation inequalities between monotone events and structured threshold objects in both the discrete cube and Gaussian space. We prove that for any increasing balanced family, there exists a linear…

We give the first elementary construction of equivalent formulas in Hanf normal form. The triply exponential upper bound is complemented by a matching lower bound.

We prove that the lengths of extremal rays of log canonical Fano surfaces with Picard number one satisfy the ascending chain condition. This confirms the 2-dimensional case of a conjecture stated by Fujino and Ishitsuka

We prove the Nonvanishing Theorem for threefolds over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p >5$.

Canonical framings and stable framings for the tangent bundle of a spin 3-manifold are introduced, and illustrated by a number of familiar examples. Methods for constructing canonical framings, and for comparing them with other naturally…

We consider threefolds that admit a fibration by K3 surfaces over a nonsingular curve, equipped with a divisorial sheaf that defines a polarisation of degree two on the general fibre. Under certain assumptions on the threefold we show that…

Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a finite nonempty set of $3$-element subsets of a totally ordered set $V$. We view $\mathcal{T}$ as the set of triangles in the support graph. Let $\delta_{1,\mathcal{T}}$ be the signed edge-triangle incidence matrix,…

Let X be a smooth threefold. We show that if $X_i\dashrightarrow X_{i+1}$ is a flip which appears in the $K_X$-MMP, then $c_1(X_i)^3-c_1(X_{i+1})^3$ is bounded by a constant depending only on $b_2(X)$.

In recent decades, piecewise linear differential systems have attracted considerable attention due to their ability to describe a wide range of phenomena. A central problem, as in the theory of general planar differential systems, is to…

The process of alternately row scaling and column scaling a positive $n \times n$ matrix $A$ converges to a doubly stochastic positive $n \times n$ matrix $S(A)$, often called the \emph{Sinkhorn limit} of $A$. The main result in this paper…

Let $(X,\mathcal{F})$ be a foliated surface over the complex numbers. We study the variation of $\epsilon$-adjoint singularities, defined by the adjoint divisor $K_{\mathcal{F}}+\epsilon K_X$ ($\epsilon>0$), and analyze their stability as…

It is shown that the log-canonical threshold of a curve with an isolated singularity is computed by the term ideal of the curve in a suitable system of local parameters at the singularity. The proof uses the Enriques diagram of the…

We prove that both classical Chevalley-Warning-Ax and Tsen theorems hold for the blowing up of a quintic 3-fold along a line of multiplicity 3. Both proofs, which are of the same spirit than the original ones, involve the description of…

The tiles of the canonical tilings (of the 3dimensional space) T*(2F) are six tetrahedra. We determine their inflation rules by the projection method.

We prove the existence of two thresholds regarding the compilability of random 2-CNF formulas to OBDDs. The formulas are drawn from $\mathcal{F}_2(n,\delta n)$, the uniform distribution over all 2-CNFs with $\delta n$ clauses and $n$…

We introduce a simple lattice model in which percolation is constructed on top of critical percolation clusters, and show that it can be repeated recursively any number $n$ of generations. In two dimensions, we determine the percolation…

We prove boundedness of rationally-connected threefolds in $\mathbb P^6$ under some extra-assumptions.
