We provide new examples of integrable rational maps in four dimensions with two rational invariants, which have unexpected geometric properties, as for example orbits confined to non algebraic varieties, and fall outside classes studied by…

We consider the polynomial equation $$X^n + a_{n-1}\cdot X^{n-1} + \dots + a_1 \cdot X + a_0 \cdot I = O,$$ over $(2 \times 2)$-matrices $X$ with the real entries, where $I$ is the identity matrix, $O$ is the null matrix, $a_i \in \mathbb…

Let $G$ be a graph and $I(G)$ its edge ideal. In this paper, we completely determine the tuples $(\dim R/I(G), \depth (R/I(G)), \reg (R/I(G)))$ when the number of vertices is fixed for any graphs $G$.

We study a double solid X branched along a nodal sextic surface in a projective space and the 2-torsion subgroup in the third integer cohomology group of a resolution of singularities of X. This group can be considered as an obstruction to…

Let S=K[x_1,...,x_n] be a polynomial ring and R=S/I be a graded K-algebra where I is a graded ideal in S. Herzog, Huneke and Srinivasan have conjectured that the multiplicity of R is bounded above by a function of the maximal shifts in the…

We prove that for each $n \geq 2$, there exists a ruled variety X of dimension n such that Bir(X) contains connected algebraic subgroups which are not lying in a maximal one.

A sequence of coefficients that appeared in the evaluation of a rational integral has been shown to be unimodal. An alternative proof is presented.

Let $f:{\rm T^2\rightarrow T^2}$ be a homeomorphism homotopic to the identity, $\widetilde{f}:{\rm I}\negthinspace {\rm R^2\rightarrow I} \negthinspace {\rm R^2}$ be a fixed lift and $\rho (\widetilde{f})$ be its rotation set, which we…

We give an explicit formula for the rational category of an elliptic space whose minimal model has a homogeneous-length differential. We also show that for such a space, there are no gaps in the sequence of integers realized as the rational…

We prove some results concerning Alcuin number of graphs. First, we classify graphs which have unique minimum vertex cover. Then we present two necessary conditions for a graph to be of class two and show why one of them (condition on…

Let $(Z,o)$ be a three-dimensional terminal singularity of type $cA/r$. We prove that all exceptional divisors over $o$ with discrepancies $\le 1$ are rational.

Let G be a connected linear algebraic group over an algebraically closed field k, and let H be a connected closed subgroup of G. We prove that the homogeneous variety G/H is a rational variety over k whenever H is solvable, or when dim(G/H)…

We show that for every m in N, there exists an n in N such that every embedding of the complete graph K_n in R^3 contains a link of two components whose linking number is at least m. Furthermore, there exists an r in N such that every…

Ind-varieties of generalized flags have been studied for two decades. However, a precise statement of when two such ind-varieties, one or both being possibly ind-varieties of isotropic generalized flags, are isomorphic, has been missing in…

Drawing inspiration from the works of Beligiannis-Marmaridis and Lin, we refine the axioms for a right $(n+2)$-angulated category and give some examples of such categories. Interestingly, we show that the morphism axiom for a right…

F. Campana had asked whether a certain threefold is rational. In arXiv:1310.3569v1 [mathAG], this variety was shown to be birational to a specific conic bundle and then to be unirational. We prove that this conic bundle is rational.

We give a presentation of the torus-equivariant quantum $K$-theory ring of flag manifolds of type $A$, as a quotient of a polynomial ring by an explicit ideal. This is the torus-equivariant version of our previous result, which gives a…

A longstanding conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Simonovits states that for every rational $r$ between $1$ and $2$ there is a graph $H$ such that the largest number of edges in an $H$-free graph on $n$ vertices is $\Theta(n^r)$. Answering a…

We provide an example of a nonnegative $k$-regulous function on $\mathbb{R}^n$ for $k\geq 1$ and $n \geq 2$ which cannot be written as a sum of squares of $k$-regulous functions. We then obtain lower bounds for Pythagoras numbers…

A regular polyhedron of type {p, q} has at least 2pq flags, and it is called tight if it has exactly 2pq flags. The values of p and q for which there exist tight orientably regular polyhedra were previously known. We determine for which…
