We prove that if X, X' are closed subschemes of a torus T over a non-Archimedean field K, of complementary codimension and with finite intersection, then the stable tropical intersection along a (possibly positive-dimensional, possibly…

We consider Vinberg $\theta$-groups associated to a cyclic quiver on $r$ nodes. Let $K$ be the product of general linear groups associated to the nodes, acting naturally on $V = \oplus \text{Hom}(V_i, V_{i+1})$. We study the harmonic…

Let $R$ be a polynomial ring in $N$ variables over an arbitrary field $K$ and let $I$ be an ideal of $R$ generated by $n$ polynomials of degree at most 2. We show that there is a bound on the projective dimension of $R/I$ that depends only…

We call a closed, connected, orientable manifold in one of the categories TOP, PL or DIFF chiral if it does not admit an orientation-reversing automorphism and amphicheiral otherwise. Moreover, we call a manifold strongly chiral if it does…

Let M be a closed simply connected n-manifold of positive sectional curvature. We determine its homeomorphism or homotopic type if M also admits an isometric elementary p-group action of large rank. Our main results are: There exists a…

We introduce and investigate multicomplex configurations, a class of projective varieties constructed via specialization of the polarizations of Artinian monomial ideals. Building upon geometric polarization and geometric vertex…

We consider the potential density of rational points on an algebraic variety defined over a number field $K$, i.e., the property that the set of rational points of $X$ becomes Zariski dense after a finite field extension of $K$. For a…

Let A be an integral Banach ring, and X/A be a projective scheme of finite type, endowed with a semi-ample line bundle L. We define a class PSH(X,L) of plurisubharmonic metrics on L on the Berkovich analytification X^an and prove various…

In this article we analyze the implicitization problem of the image of a rational map $\phi: X --> P^n$, with $T$ a toric variety of dimension $n-1$ defined by its Cox ring $R$. Let $I:=(f_0,...,f_n)$ be $n+1$ homogeneous elements of $R$.…

We introduce the cave polynomial of a polymatroid and show that it yields a valuative function on polymatroids. The support of this polynomial after homogenization is again a polymatroid. The cave polynomial gives a $K$-theoretic…

Let X be a projective surface, let \sigma be an automorphism of X, and let L be a \sigma-ample invertible sheaf on X. We study the properties of a family of subrings, parameterized by geometric data, of the twisted homogeneous coordinate…

Let $K=k(C)$ be the function field of a complete nonsingular curve $C$ over an arbitrary field $k$. The main result of this paper states that a morphism $\phi:{\mathbb P}^N_K\to{\mathbb P}^N_K$ is isotrivial if and only if it has potential…

We prove a multiple recurrence result for arbitrary measure-preserving transformations along polynomials in two variables of the form $m+p_i(n)$, with rationally independent $p_i$'s with zero constant term. This is in contrast to the single…

We give a sufficient condition in order that $n$ closed connected subsets in the $n$-dimensional real projective space admit a common multitangent hyperplane.

We evidence a family $\mathcal{X}$ of square matrices over a field $\mathbb{K}$, whose elements will be called X-matrices. We show that this family is shape invariant under multiplication as well as transposition. We show that $\mathcal{X}$…

We study several properties of multihomogeneous prime ideals. We show that the multigraded generic initial ideal of a prime has very special properties, for instance, its radical is Cohen-Macaulay. We develop a comprehensive study of…

A polyhedron P has the Integer Caratheodory Property if the following holds. For any positive integer k and any integer vector w in kP, there exist affinely independent integer vectors x_1,...,x_t in P and positive integers n_1,...,n_t such…

This article concerns commutative algebras over a field $k$ of characteristic zero which are finite dimensional as vectorspaces, and particularly those of such algebras which are graded. Here the term graded is applied to non-negatively…

We consider algebras over a field K defined by a presentation K <x_1,..., x_n : R >, where $R$ consists of n choose 2 square-free relations of the form x_i x_j = x_k x_l with every monomial x_i x_j, i different from j, appearing in one of…
