For a regular immersion of schemes $Z\to X$ and a cohomology theory of fs log schemes, we formulate the logarithmic Gysin sequence using the "logarithmic compactification" $(\mathrm{Bl}_Z X,E)$ instead of the open complement $X-Z$, where…

We define the notion of generalized logarithmic sheaves on a smooth projective surface, associated to a pair consisting of a reduced curve and some fixed points on it. We then set up the study of the Torelli property in this setting,…

Given a lattice polytope Q in R^n, we define an affine scheme M(Q) that reflects the possibilities of splitting Q into a Minkowski sum. On the other hand, Q induces a toric Gorenstein singularity Y, and we construct a flat family over M(Q)…

This paper formulates an elementary algorithm for resolution of singularities in a neighborhood of a singular point over a field of characteristic zero. The algorithm is composed of finite sequences of Newton polyhedra and monomial…

We introduce a generalization $G^{(\alpha)}(X)$ of the truncated logarithm $\mathcal{L}_1(X) = \sum_{k=1}^{p-1}X^k/k$ in characteristic $p$, which depends on a parameter $\alpha$. The main motivation of this study is $G^{(\alpha)}(X)$ being…

Majorization-minimization schemes are a broad class of iterative methods targeting general optimization problems, including nonconvex, nonsmooth and stochastic. These algorithms minimize successively a sequence of upper bounds of the…

In this work we develop a theory of motives for logarithmic schemes over fields in the sense of Fontaine, Illusie, and Kato. Our construction is based on the notion of finite log correspondences, the dividing Nisnevich topology on log…

We consider the stack $\mathcal{L}og_X$ parametrizing log schemes over a log scheme $X$, and weak and strong properties of log morphisms via $\mathcal{L}og_X$, as defined by Olsson. We give a concrete combinatorial presentation of…

We consider the homogenized linear feasibility problem, to find an $x$ on the unit sphere, satisfying $n$ line ar inequalities $a_i^Tx\ge 0$. To solve this problem we consider the centers of the insphere of spherical simpl ices, whose…

For a proper, smooth scheme $X$ over a $p$-adic field $K$, we show that any proper, flat, semistable $\mathcal{O}_K$-model $\mathcal{X}$ of $X$ whose logarithmic de Rham cohomology is torsion free determines the same $\mathcal{O}_K$-lattice…

We introduce the notion of a regular integrable connection on a smooth log scheme over $\mathbf{C}$ and construct an equivalence between the category of such connections and the category of integrable connections on its analytification,…

We discuss to what extent the local techniques of resolution of singularities over fields of characteristic zero can be applied to improve singularities in general. For certain interesting classes of singularities, this leads to an embedded…

Let (S, BS) be the log-pair associated with a compactification of a given smooth quasi-projective surface V . Under the assumption that the boundary BS is irreducible, we propose an algorithm, in the spirit of the (log) Sarkisov program, to…

We present a concise proof for the existence and construction of a {\it strong resolution of excellent schemes} of finite type over a field of characteristic zero. Our proof is based on earlier work of Villamayor, Encinas-Villamayor and…

We heuristically show that Shor's algorithm for computing general discrete logarithms achieves an expected success probability of approximately 60% to 82% in a single run when modified to enable efficient implementation with the…

We consider the 1D cubic NLS on $\mathbb R$ and prove a blow-up result for functions that are of borderline regularity, i.e. $H^s$ for any $s<-\frac 12$ for the Sobolev scale and $\mathcal F L^\infty$ for the Fourier-Lebesgue scale. This is…

In the article of Hesselholt [Hes05], a set of conjectures is laid out. Given a smooth scheme $X$ over the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ of a $p$-adic field $K$, these conjectures concern the expected relation between log topological…

The problem of finding a nonzero solution of a linear recurrence $Ly = 0$ with polynomial coefficients where $y$ has the form of a definite hypergeometric sum, related to the Inverse Creative Telescoping Problem of [14][Sec. 8], has now…

Let ${\cal L}$ be a local system on the complement $X^{\star}$ of a normal crossing divisor (NCD) $ Y$ in a smooth analytic variety $X$ and let $ j: X^{\star} = X - Y \to X $ denotes the open embedding. The purpose of this paper is to…

Convenient, easy to implement stochastic integration methods are developed on the basis of abstract one-step deterministic order $p$ integration techniques. The abstraction as an arbitrary one step map allows the inspection of easy to…
