The purpose of this article is to give an explicit description, in terms of hypergeometric functions over finite fields, of zeta function of a certain type of smooth hypersurfaces that generalizes Dwork family. The point here is that we…
Theory of motivic superpolynomials is developed, including its extension to algebraic links colored by rows, relations to $L$-functions of plane curve singularities, the justification of the motivic versions of Weak Riemann Hypothesis, and…
Given two irreducible curves of the plane which have isomorphic complements, it is natural to ask whether there exists an automorphism of the plane that sends one curve on the other. This question has a positive answer for a large family of…
Spencer Bloch and the author formulated a general conjecture (Tamagawa number conjecture) on the relation between values of zeta functions of motives and arithmetic groups associated to motives. We discuss this conjecture, and describe some…
Given a family $X$ of complex varieties degenerating over a punctured disc, one is interested in computing related invariants called the motivic nearby fiber and the refined limit mixed Hodge numbers, both of which contain information about…
For each central essential hyperplane arrangement $\mathcal{A}$ over an algebraically closed field, let $Z_\mathcal{A}^{\hat\mu}(T)$ denote the Denef-Loeser motivic zeta function of $\mathcal{A}$. We prove a formula expressing…
It is shown that every polynomial function $P : \mathbb{C}^2\longrightarrow \mathbb{C}$ with irreducible fibres of same a genus is a coordinate. In consequence, there does not exist counterexamples F = (P,Q) to the Jacobian conjecture such…
I describe the monodromy of smooth hypersurfaces $X$ of high degree in a fixed smooth variety $Y$ containing a fixed subvariety $W$ of $Y$. The cohomology of $X$ in middle degree spanned by the pull-back of the cohomology of $Y$ and by the…
We show that only finitely many complex genus two curves and four punctured spheres admit rank two local systems of geometric origin, and moreover each carries finitely many. This gives further counterexamples to a conjecture of Esnault and…
A new approach to analyze the properties of the energy-momentum tensor $T(z)$ of conformal field theories on generic Riemann surfaces (RS) is proposed. $T(z)$ is decomposed into $N$ components with different monodromy properties, where $N$…
Fix a semisimple Lie algebra g. Gaudin algebras are commutative algebras acting on tensor product multiplicity spaces for g-representations. These algebras depend on a parameter which is a point in the Deligne-Mumford moduli space of marked…
We take the fundamental group of the complement of the branch curve of a generic projection induced from canonical embedding of a surface. This group is stable on connected components of moduli spaces of surfaces. Since for many classes of…
Fujita's second theorem for K\"ahler fibre spaces over a curve asserts that the direct image $V$ of the relative dualizing sheaf splits as the direct sum $ V = A \oplus Q$, where $A$ is ample and $Q$ is unitary flat. We focus on our…
The fundamental group of a smooth projective variety is fibered if it maps onto the fundamental group of smooth curve of genus 2 or more. The goal of this paper is to establish some strong restrictions on these groups, and in particular on…
In this paper we are investigated the monodromy group for linearly polymorphic functions on compact Riemann surface of genus $g \geq 2,$ in connection with standard uniformization of these surfaces by Kleinian groups, and are found a…
The monodromy of the $\sl(3)$ Casimir flat connection around root hyperplanes is studied. For the computation of the traces of the root monodromy operators, acting on the parabolic Verma modules, we deduce branching rules w.r.t. the…
Oda's problem, which deals with the fixed field of the universal monodromy representation of moduli spaces of curves and its independence with respect to the topological data, is a central question of anabelian arithmetic geometry. This…
We study invariants of a plane cuve singularity $(f,0)$ coming from motivic integration on symmetric powers of a formal deformation of $f$. We show that a natural discriminant integral recovers the motivic classes of the principal Hilbert…
In this note we consider the Milnor fiber $F$ associated to a reduced projective plane curve $C$. A computational approach for the determination of the characteristic polynomial of the monodromy action on the first cohomology group of $F$,…
We study monodromies of plane curve singularities and pseudo-periodic homeomorphisms of oriented surfaces with boundary, following an original idea of the first author: t\^ete-\`a-t\^ete graphs and twists. We completely characterize mapping…
