We show a counterexample to a conjecture of de Bobadilla, Luengo, Melle-Hern\'{a}ndez and N\'{e}methi on rational cuspidal projective plane curves. The counterexample is a tricuspidal curve of degree 8. On the other hand, we show that if…

Real Legendrian subvarieties are classical objects of differential geometry and classical mechanics and they have been studied since antiquity. However, complex Legendrian subvarieties are much more rigid and have more exceptional…

We give two algorithms to compute layers of the anticyclotomic ${\bf Z}_3$-extension of an imaginary quadratic field. The first is based on complex multiplication techniques for nonmaximal orders; the second is based on Kummer theory. As an…

Motivated by recent proposals relating non-supersymmetric Type 0A theory to M-theory compactified on a singular wedge geometry, we study an M-theory compactification on a seven-manifold with G_2 structure, realized as a deformed K3…

We construct a compact PL 5-manifold $M$ (with boundary) which is homotopy equivalent to the wedge of eleven 2-spheres, $\vee^{}_{1 1}S^2$, which is "spineless", meaning $M$ is not the regular neighborhood of any 2-complex PL embedded in…

We show that special cycles generate a large part of the cohomology of locally symmetric spaces associated to orthogonal groups. We prove in particular that classes of totally geodesic submanifolds generate the cohomology groups of degree…

We prove that the moduli spaces of K3 surfaces with non-symplectic involutions are unirational. As a by-product we describe configuration spaces of 4<d<9 points in the projective plane as arithmetic quotients of type IV.

Fino and Kath determined all possible holonomy groups of seven-dimensional pseu\-do-Rie\-man\-nian manifolds contained in the exceptional, non-compact, simple Lie group $\mathrm{G}_2^*$ via the corresponding Lie algebras. They are…

We present a natural reverse Minkowski-type inequality for lattices, which gives upper bounds on the number of lattice points in a Euclidean ball in terms of sublattice determinants, and conjecture its optimal form. The conjecture exhibits…

The elliptic 3-manifolds are the closed 3-manifolds that admit a Riemannian metric of constant positive curvature, that is, those that have finite fundamental group. The (Generalized) Smale Conjecture asserts that for any elliptic…

A result of Bleher, Chinburg, Greenberg, Kakde, Pappas, Sharifi and Taylor has initiated the topic of higher codimension Iwasawa theory. As a generalization of the classical Iwasawa main conjecture, they prove a relationship between…

We solve the isomorphism problem for the whole class of Lins-Mandel gems (graphs encoded manifolds). We also present certain homeomorphisms of branched cyclic coverings of two-bridge hyperbolic links. As a consequence, we prove that, in in…

Given two Morse functions $f, \mu$ on a compact manifold $M$, we study the Morse homology for the Lagrange multiplier function on $M \times {\mathbb R}$ which sends $(x, \eta)$ to $f(x) + \eta \mu(x)$. Take a product metric on $M \times…

Let $ R \subset \R $ be a GCD-domain. In this paper, Weinberg's conjecture on the $ n \times n $ matrix algebra $ M_{n}(R) \ (n \geq 2) $ is proved. Moreover, all the lattice orders (up to isomorphisms) on a full $ 2 \times 2 $ matrix…

Kontsevich conjectured that $\text{BDiff}(M, \text{rel }\partial)$ has the homotopy type of a finite CW complex for all compact $3$-manifolds with non-empty boundary. Hatcher-McCullough proved this conjecture when $M$ is irreducible. We…

We analyze the dynamics of M-theory on a manifold of G_2 holonomy that is developing a conical singularity. The known cases involve a cone on CP^3, where we argue that the dynamics involves restoration of a global symmetry, SU(3)/U(1)^2,…

We reduce Iitaka's subadditivity conjecture for the logarithmic Kodaira dimension to a special case of the generalized abundance conjecture by establishing an Iitaka type inequality for Nakayama's numerical Kodaira dimension. Our proof…

We construct several new classes of isospectral manifolds with different local geometries. After reviewing a theorem by Carolyn Gordon on isospectral torus bundles and presenting certain useful specialized versions (Chapter 1) we apply…

Based on the analogies of arithmetic topology, we show a topological analogue of Hilbert's Satz 90 for idele groups and utilize our previously established Hasse norm principle to present a proof of an Iyanaga--Tamagawa type genus formula…

In this paper we prove two new cases of Langlands functoriality. The first is a functorial product for cusp forms on $GL_2\times GL_3$ as automorphic forms on $GL_6$, from which we obtain our second case, the long awaited functorial…
