In this paper, we provide a simple proof for the fact that two simplicial complexes are isomorphic if and only if their associated Stanley-Reisner rings, or their associated facet rings are isomorphic as $K$-algebras. As a consequence, we…
We study (2,2) divisors in $P^2 \times P^2$ giving rise to pairs of non-isomorphic, derived equivalent and L-equivalent K3 surfaces of degree 2. In particular, we confirm the existence of such fourfolds as predicted by Kuznetsov and Shinder…
A famous theorem of Bers and Finn states that isolated singularities of solutions to the non-parametric minimal surface equation are removable. We show that this result remains valid, if the area functional is replaced by a general…
We prove that, in all except one case, a Gorenstein del Pezzo surface of Picard rank 1 admits an int-amplified endomorphism if and only if it is a quotient of a toric variety by a finite group which acts freely in codimension one and…
We construct a normal projective $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein surface over an algebraically closed field whose canonical ring is not finitely generated. Moreover, we provide a counterexample to the minimal model program for…
We introduce a new technique, based on Gaussian maps, to study the possibility, for a given surface, to lie on a threefold as a very ample divisor with given normal bundle. We give several applications, among which one to surfaces of…
We prove that second rational homology of the Torelli group of an orientable closed surface of genus g is finite dimensional for g at least 51. This rules out the simplest obstruction to the Torelli group being finitely presented and…
We introduce the class of outerspatial 2-complexes as the natural generalisation of the class of outerplanar graphs to three dimensions. Answering a question of O-joung Kwon, we prove that a locally 2-connected 2-complex is outerspatial if…
Let $K$ be a local field with algebraically closed residue field and $X_K$ a torsor under an elliptic curve $J_K$ over $K$. Let $X$ be a proper minimal regular model of $X_K$ over the ring of integers of $K$ and $J$ the identity component…
We prove that the moduli space of empty real Enriques surfaces (and, thus, the moduli space of compact orientable 4-dimensional Einstein manifolds whose universal covering is a K3-surface and \pi_1(E) = Z/2 x Z/2) is connected. The proof is…
In this sequel to arxiv:arXiv:1012.0835 we develop Bezout type theorems for semidegrees (including an explicit formula for {\em iterated semidegrees}) and an inequality for subdegrees. In addition we prove (in case of surfaces) a Bernstein…
We study a quasisymmetric version of the classical Koebe uniformization theorem in the context of Ahlfors regular metric surfaces. In particular, we prove that an Ahlfors 2-regular metric surface X homeomorphic to a finitely connected…
We study adjacency of equisingularity types of planar curve singularities in terms of their Enriques diagrams. For linear adjacency a complete answer is obtained, whereas for arbitrary (analytic) adjacency a necessary condition and a…
We introduce a notion of equivalence on tilings which is formulated in terms of their local structure. We compare it with the known concept of locally deriving one tiling from another and show that two tilings of finite type are…
We complete the proof of the Nisnevich conjecture in equal characteristic: for a smooth algebraic variety $X$ over a field $k$, a $k$-smooth divisor $D \subset X$, and a reductive $X$-group $G$ whose base change $G_D$ is totally isotropic,…
In this paper we show the failure of the integral Hodge/Tate conjecture for the product of an Enriques surface with a smooth odd-dimensional projective hypersurface. To do this, we use a specialization argument of Colliot-Th\'el\`ene…
Let T -> S be a finite flat morphism of degree two between regular integral schemes of dimension at most two (and with 2 invertible), having regular branch divisor D. We establish a bijection between Azumaya quaternion algebras on T and…
We investigate a strong version of the integral Tate conjecture for 1-cycles on the product of a curve and a surface over a finite field, under the assumption that the surface is geometrically $CH_0$-trivial. By this we mean that over any…
In this paper, we prove a similar result to the fundamental theorem of regular surfaces in classical differential geometry, which extends the classical theorem to the entire class of singular surfaces in Euclidean 3-space known as frontals.…
Let $R$ be a commutative and unital semi-local ring in which 2 is invertible. In this note, we show that anisotropic quadratic spaces over $R$ remain anisotropic after base change to any odd-degree finite \'{e}tale extension of $R$. This…
