We classify singular fibres of a projective Lagrangian fibration over codimension one points. As an application, we obtain a canonical bundle formula for a projective Lagrangian fibration over a smooth manifold.

Gardner, Gronchi and Zong posed the problem to find a discrete analogue of M. Meyer's inequality bounding the volume of a convex body from below by the geometric mean of the volumes of its slices with the coordinate hyperplanes. Motivated…

For a given projective variety $X$, the high rank loci are the closures of the sets of points whose $X$-rank is higher than the generic one. We show examples of strict inclusion between two consecutive high rank loci. Our first example is…

We obtain new upper bounds on the minimal density of lattice coverings of Euclidean space by dilates of a convex body K. We also obtain bounds on the probability (with respect to the natural Haar-Siegel measure on the space of lattices)…

We give short and simple proofs of what seem to be folklore results: * the maximum cardinality of the intersection of a lattice cube with an affine subspace; * the minimum number of affine subspaces needed to cover a lattice cube.

We give an upper bound on the volume vol(P*) of a polytope P* dual to a d-dimensional lattice polytope P with exactly one interior lattice point, in each dimension d. This bound, expressed in terms of the Sylvester sequence, is sharp, and…

The problem of percolation along sites of square lattice is studied. The number of contours being external boundaries for finite clusters has been estimated using geometric considerations. This estimation makes it possible to determine more…

We consider the problem of lower bounding a generalized Minkowski measure of subsets of a convex body with a log-concave probability measure, conditioned on the set size. A bound is given in terms of diameter and set size, which is sharp…

The weighted bounded negativity conjecture considers a smooth projective surface $X$ and looks for a common lower bound on the quotients $C^2/(D\cdot C)^2$, where $C$ runs over the integral curves on $X$ and $D$ over the big and nef…

We prove a characterization of profinite algebras, i.e., topological algebras that are isomorphic to a projective limit of finite discrete algebras. In general profiniteness concerns both the topological and algebraic characteristics of a…

In this paper we find the sharp forms and characterize the complex-valued extremizers of the adjoint Fourier restriction inequalities on the sphere $$\big\|\widehat{f \sigma}\big\|_{L^{p}(\mathbb{R}^{d})} \lesssim…

We study the scalar curvature of incomplete wedge metrics in certain stratified spaces with a single singular stratum (wedge spaces). Building upon several well established technical tools for this category of spaces (the corresponding…

For various compactly supported perturbations of the Laplacian in odd dimensions $n$, we prove a sharp upper bound of the resonance counting function $N(r)$ of the type $N(r) \le A_n r^n(1+o(1))$ with an explicit constant $A_n$. In a few…

In this paper we show that the global (log) canonical threshold of $d$-sheeted covers of the $M$-dimensional projective space of index 1, where $d\geqslant 4$, is equal to one for almost all families (except for a finite set). The varieties…

We present a generic and systematic approach for constructing D-dimensional lattice models with exactly solvable d-dimensional boundary states localized to corners, edges, hinges and surfaces. These solvable models represent a class of…

We show that if the automorphism group of a projective variety is torsion, then it is finite. Motivated by Lang's conjecture on rational points of hyperbolic varieties, we use this to prove that a projective variety with only finitely many…

This paper is motivated by two problems in the theory of Diophantine approximation, namely, Davenport's problem regarding badly approximable points on submanifolds of a Euclidean space and Schmidt's problem regarding the intersections of…

We prove upper and lower bounds for certain sums of products of fractional parts by using majoring and minorizing functions from Fourier analysis. In special cases the upper bounds are sharp if there exist counterexamples to the Littlewood…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety, defined over the rationals. This paper gives upper bounds for the number of rational points on $X$, with height at most $B$, for the case in which $X$ is a curve or a surface. In the latter case one excludes…

We endow the set of complements of a fixed subspace of a projective space with the structure of an affine space, and show that certain lines of such an affine space are affine reguli or cones over affine reguli. Moreover, we apply our…
