Assuming the 2-adic Iwasawa main conjecture, we find all CM fields with higher relative class number at most 16: there are at least 31 and at most 34 such fields, and exactly one is not abelian.
In 1997, John Conway constructed a $6$-fold transitive subset $M_{13}$ of permutations on a set of size $13$ for which the subset fixing any given point was isomorphic to the Mathieu group $M_{12}$. The construction was via a…
The Hardy space H^2(R) for the upper half plane together with a unimodular function group representation u(\lambda) = \exp(i(\lambda_1\psi_1 + ... + \lambda_n\psi_n)) for \lambda in R^n, gives rise to a manifold M of orthogonal projections…
We use lens-shaped models and the second obstruction to pseudoisotopy to construct a nontrivial diffeomorphism of $M\times I$ where $M$ is the connected sum of $S^1\times S^2$ with a another nonsimply connected 3-manifold $M'$. Then we take…
Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n \geq 3. The Compactness Conjecture asserts that the set of constant scalar curvature metrics in the conformal class of g is compact unless (M,g) is conformally equivalent to the…
We prove convergence of Goodwillie-Weiss' embedding calculus for spaces of embeddings into a manifold of dimension at most two, so in particular for diffeomorphisms between surfaces. We also relate the Johnson filtration of the mapping…
We generalize Kobayashi's connected-sum inequality to the $\lambda$-Yamabe invariants. As an application, we calculate the $\lambda$-Yamabe invariants of $\#m_1\mathbb{RP}^n\# m_2(\mathbb{RP}^{n-1}\times S^1)\#lH^n\#kS_+^n$, for any…
We investigate the differential geometry and topology of four-dimensional Lorentzian manifolds $(M,g)$ equipped with a real Killing spinor $\varepsilon$, where $\varepsilon$ is defined as a section of a bundle of irreducible real Clifford…
In this paper we study the invariant Carnot-Caratheodory metrics on $SU(2)\simeq S^3$, $SO(3)$ and $SL(2)$ induced by their Cartan decomposition and by the Killing form. Beside computing explicitly geodesics and conjugate loci, we compute…
We show that in the iterated Sacks model over the constructible universe the Mansfield-Solovay Theorem holds for $\Sigma^1_3$ sets. In particular, every $\mathbf{\Sigma}^1_3$ set is Marczewski measurable and the optimal complexity for a…
We establish the Miyaoka-Yau inequality for $n$-dimensional projective klt varieties with big canonical divisor $K_X$: \[ (2(n+1)\widehat{c}_2(X) - n \widehat{c}_1(X)^2) \cdot \langle c_1(K_X)^{n-2} \rangle \ge 0. \] We also prove the…
Using Lie groups with left-invariant complex structure, we construct new examples of compact complex manifolds with flat affine structure in arbitrarly high dimensions. In the 2-dimensional case, we retrieve the Inoue surfaces $S^+$.
We construct new topological invariants of three-dimensional manifolds which can, in particular, distinguish homotopy equivalent lens spaces L(7,1) and L(7,2). The invariants are built on the base of a classical (not quantum) solution of…
The 2-parameter family of certain homogeneous Lorentzian 3-manifolds which includes Minkowski 3-space and anti-de Sitter 3-space is considered. Each homogeneous Lorentzian 3-manifold in the 2-parameter family has a solvable Lie group…
We show that to every maximal surface with conelike singularities in Lorentz-Minkowski space $\mathbb{L}^3$ that can be locally represented as the graph of a smooth function, there exists a corresponding timelike minimal surface in…
We demonstrate the construction of singular log Calabi-Yau $4$-folds such that the dual complex of the boundary is homeomorphic to a Lens space from a log Calabi-Yau surface with action of a finite cyclic group. We explicitly obtain the…
The main goal of this article is to compute the class of the divisor of $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_3$ obtained by taking the closure of the image of $\Omega\mathcal{M}_3(6;-2)$ by the forgetful map. This is done using Porteous formula and the…
In conformal geometry, the Compactness Conjecture asserts that the set of Yamabe metrics on a smooth, compact, aspherical Riemannian manifold (M,g) is compact. Established in the locally conformally flat case by Schoen [43,44] and for n\leq…
A Theorem of Wang in [Wa] implies that any holomorphic parallelism on a compact complex manifold M is flat with respect to some complex Lie algebra structure whose dimension coincides with that of M. We study here rational parallelisms on…
This note provides a counterexample to a conjecture by March\'e about the structure of the Kauffman bracket skein module for closed compact oriented 3-manifolds over the ring of Laurent polynomials.
