When a birational surface map is expanding on cohomology there is a canonical way to associate positive closed currents to the map and its inverse. In this paper we use a version of Dirichlet energy to construct the wedge product of these…

A generic method for combinatorial constructions of intrinsic geometrical spaces is presented. It is based on the well known inverse sequences of finite graphs that determine (in the limit) topological spaces. If a pattern of the…

In this paper we present a class of four-dimensional bi-rational maps with two invariants satisfying certain constraints on degrees. We discuss the integrability properties of these maps from the point of view of degree growth and Liouville…

In this paper, it is explained that a topological invariant for 3-manifold $M$ with $b_1(M)=1$ can be constructed by applying Fukaya's Morse homotopy theoretic approach for Chern--Simons perturbation theory to a local system on $M$ of…

Our aim is to illustrate how one can effectively apply the basic ideas and notions of topological entropy and dynamical degrees, together with recent progress of minimal model theory in higher dimension, for an explicit study of birational…

This article is a continuation of work on construction and calculation various of modifications of invariant based on the use Euclidean metric values attributed to elements of manifold triangulation. We again address the well investigated…

We describe some combinatorial problems in finite projective planes and indicate how R\'edei's theory of lacunary polynomials can be applied to them.

We use classical invariant theory to construct invariants of complex graded Gorenstein algebras of finite vector space dimension. As a consequence, we obtain a way of extracting certain numerical invariants of quasi-homogeneous isolated…

The paper introduces a new differential-geometric system which originates from the theory of $m$-Hessian operators. The core of this system is a new notion of invariant differentiation on multidimensional surfaces. This novelty gives rise…

We relate R-equivalence on tori with Voevodsky's theory of homotopy invariant Nisnevich sheaves with transfers and effective motivic complexes.

We consider projection algorithms for solving (nonconvex) feasibility problems in Euclidean spaces. Of special interest are the Method of Alternating Projections (MAP) and the Douglas-Rachford or Averaged Alternating Reflection Algorithm…

Given an action of a reductive group on a normal variety, we construct all invariant open subsets admitting a good quotient with a quasiprojective or a divisorial quotient space. Our approach extends known constructions like Mumford's…

Farrell and Hsiang noticed that the geometric surgery groups defined By Wall, Chapter 9, do not have the naturality Wall claims for them. They were able to fix the problem by augmenting Wall's definitions to keep track of a line bundle. The…

Iterated Grassmannian bundles over moduli stacks of vector bundles on a curve are shown to be birational to an affine space times a moduli stack of degree 0 vector bundles, following the method of King and Schofield. Applications include…

This thesis represents the first step in an investigation of an interesting class of manifold-theoretic invariants of $E_n$-algebras which generalize topological Hochschild homology. The main goal of this thesis is to give a definition of…

We show that the hessian map of quartic plane curves is a birational morphism onto its image, thus bringing new evidence for a very interesting conjecture of Ciro Ciliberto and Giorgio Ottaviani. Our new approach also yields a simpler proof…

Nonlinear analysis has played a prominent role in the recent developments in geometry and topology. The study of the Yang-Mills equation and its cousins gave rise to the Donaldson invariants and more recently, the Seiberg-Witten invariants.…

Inspired by a width invariant on permutations defined by Guillemot and Marx, Bonnet, Kim, Thomass\'e, and Watrigant introduced the twin-width of graphs, which is a parameter describing its structural complexity. This invariant has been…

Equivariant versions of the radial index and of the GSV-index of a vector field or a 1-form on a singular variety with an action of a finite group are defined. They have values in the Burnside ring of the group. Poincar\'e-Hopf type…

This paper reexamines univariate reduction from a toric geometric point of view. We begin by constructing a binomial variant of the $u$-resultant and then retailor the generalized characteristic polynomial to fully exploit sparsity in the…
