We associate to any complete spherical variety $X$ a certain nonnegative rational number $\wp(X)$, which we conjecture to satisfy the inequality $\wp(X) \le \operatorname{dim} X - \operatorname{rank} X$ with equality holding if and only if…

In this paper, assuming that a polarized algebraic manifold $(X,L)$ is strongly K-stable, we shall show that the polarization class $c_1(L)$ admits a constant scalar curvature Kaehler metric.

Let $p$ be a prime integer and $F$ a field of characteristic 0. Let $X$ be the {\em norm variety} of a symbol in the Galois cohomology group $H^{n+1}(F,\mu_p^{\otimes n})$ (for some $n\geq1$), constructed in the proof of the Bloch-Kato…

It is a conjecture of Koll\'ar that a variety $X$ with rational singularities in some open subvariety $U$ has a rationalification; that is, a proper, birational morphism $f: Y \rightarrow X$ such that $Y$ has rational singularities, and…

Let $M$ and $N$ be smooth manifolds, with $M$ closed and connected. If the $C^r$--diffeomorphism group of $M$ is elementarily equivalent to the $C^s$--diffeomorphism group of $N$ for some $r,s\in[1,\infty)\cup\{0,\infty\}$, then $r=s$ and…

Let $G$ be a Lie group acting properly on a smooth manifold $M$. If $M/G$ is connected, then we exhibit some simple and basic constructions for proper actions. In particular, we prove that the reduction principle in compact transformation…

Let H be a homology theory for algebraic varieties over a field k. To a complete k-variety X, one naturally attaches an ideal of the coefficient ring H(k). We show that, when X is regular, this ideal depends only on the upper Chow motive of…

Let X be a smooth quasi-projective variety over the algebraic closure of the rational number field. We show that the cycle map of the higher Chow group to Deligne cohomology is injective and the higher Hodge cycles are generated by the…

Let $(X,L)$ be a polarized K3 surface of genus $g$ and $C_{en} \subset X$ be the curve of singular points of nodal elliptic curves in $|L|$. When $(X,L)$ is generic of genus two, Huybrechts observed that the curve $C_{en}$ is a constant…

Let $A$ be a $C^*$-algebra and $E\colon A \to A$ a conditional expectation. The Kadison-Schwarz inequality for completely positive maps, $$E(x)^*E(x) \leq E(x^* x),$$ implies that $$ \|E(x)\|^2 \leq \|E(x^* x)\|.$$ In this note we show that…

The Jacobian conjecture in dimension $n$ asserts that any polynomial endomorphism of $n$-dimensional affine space over a field of zero characteristic, with the Jacobian equal 1, is invertible. The Dixmier conjecture in rank $n$ asserts that…

Let X be a path-connected topological space admitting a universal cover. Let Homeo(X,a) denote the group of homeomorphisms of X preserving degree one cohomology class a. We investigate the distortion in Homeo(X,a). Let g be an element of…

There is a natural probability measure on the set of isomorphism classes of principally polarized Abelian varieties of dimension $g$ over $\mathbb{F}_q$, weighted by the number of automorphisms. The distributions of the number of…

Let X be a normal variety such that $K_X$ is Q-Cartier, and let $f: X \rightarrow X$ be a finite surjective morphism of degree at least two. We establish a close relation between the irreducible components of the locus of singularities that…

An isometric compact group action $G \times (M,g) \rightarrow (M,g)$ is called polar if there exists a closed embedded submanifold $\Sigma \subseteq M$ which meets all orbits orthogonally. Let $\Pi$ be the associated generalized Weyl group.…

We establish the \emph{inverse conjecture for the Gowers norm over finite fields}, which asserts (roughly speaking) that if a bounded function $f: V \to \C$ on a finite-dimensional vector space $V$ over a finite field $\F$ has large Gowers…

In this paper, we prove that for a given surjective holomorphic endomorphism $f$ of a compact K\"ahler manifold $X$ and for some integer $p$ with $1\le p\le k$, there exists a proper invariant analytic subset $E$ for $f$ such that if $S$ is…

Let $\mu$ be a Borel probability measure on a compact path-connected metric space $(X, \rho)$ for which there exist constants $c,\beta>1$ such that $\mu(B) \geq c r^{\beta}$ for every open ball $B\subset X$ of radius $r>0$. For a class of…
