We show that for a surjective, separable morphism f of smooth projective varieties over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic such that $f_* \mathcal{O}_X = \mathcal{O}_Y$ subadditivity of Kodaira dimension holds,…

The famous Jacobian conjecture asks if an endomorphism $f$ of $K[x,y]$ ($K$ is a characteristic zero field) having a non-zero scalar Jacobian is invertible. Let $\alpha$ be the exchange involution on $K[x,y]$: $\alpha(x)= y$ and $\alpha(y)=…

Given a closed, convex cone $K\subseteq \mathbb{R}^n$, a multivariate polynomial $f\in\mathbb{C}[\mathbf{z}]$ is called $K$-stable if the imaginary parts of its roots are not contained in the relative interior of $K$. If $K$ is the…

This article re-examines Lawvere's abstract, category-theoretic proof of the fixed-point theorem whose contrapositive is a `universal' diagonal argument. The main result is that the necessary axioms for both the fixed-point theorem and the…

Let $f : X \rightarrow Y$ be a generically smooth nonconstant morphism between irreducible projective curves, defined over an algebraically closed field, which is \'etale on an open subset of $Y$ that contains both the singular locus of $Y$…

Let f : Y -> X be a morphism of complex projective manifolds, and let F be a subsheaf of the tangent bundle which is closed under the Lie bracket, but not necessarily a foliation. This short paper contains an elementary and very geometric…

Let $Y$ be a complex projective variety of dimension $n$ with isolated singularities, $\pi:X\to Y$ a resolution of singularities, $G:=\pi^{-1}{\rm{Sing}}(Y)$ the exceptional locus. From Decomposition Theorem one knows that the map…

Extending the work of Bell, Matsuzawa and Satriano, we consider a finite set of polynomials $S$ over a number field $K$ and give a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of a $N \in \mathbb{N}_{> 0}$ and a finite set $Z…

We study the dynamics of towers defined by fixed points of renormalization for Feigenbaum polynomials in the complex plane with varying order \ell of the critical point. It is known that the measure of the Julia set of the Feigenbaum…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic and let $X$ be an irreducible projective variety over $K$. Let $G\subseteq\text{Bir}(X)$ be a bounded-degree subgroup. We prove that there exists an irreducible projective…

We give an introduction to the "stable algebra of matrices" as related to certain problems in symbolic dynamics. We consider this stable algebra (especially, shift equivalence and strong shift equivalence) for matrices over general rings as…

We show that the iterated images of a Jacobian pair stabilize; that is, the k-th iterates of a polynomial map of complex two-space to itself with a nonzero constant Jacobian determinant all have the same image for sufficiently large k. More…

Let $f$ be a dominant endomorphism of the projective line, which is not conjugate to a power map $z\mapsto z^{\pm d}$. We consider the centralizers of the iterates of $f$,…

The Furstenberg-Zimmer structure theorem for $\mathbb{Z}^d$ actions says that every measure-preserving system can be decomposed into a tower of primitive extensions. Furstenberg and Katznelson used this analysis to prove the…

Suppose that $f:X\to Y$ is a dominant morphism of 3-folds over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We prove that there exist sequences of blow ups of points and nonsingular curves $\Phi:X_1\to X$ and $\Psi:Y_1\to Y$ such…

We study the negative $K$-theory of singular varieties over a field of positive characteristic and in particular, prove the vanishing of $K_i(X)$ for $i < -d-2$ for a $k$-variety of dimension $d$.

The Kawaguchi--Silverman conjecture predicts that if $f\colon X \dashrightarrow X$ is a dominant rational-self map of a projective variety over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$, and $P$ is a $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-point of $X$ with Zariski-dense…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $0$, and let $k \geq 2$ be an integer. We prove that every $K$-linear bijection $f \colon K[X] \to K[X]$ strongly preserving the set of $k$-free polynomials (or the set of polynomials with a $k$-fold…

A review of some recent results on the dynamical theory of the Yang-Baxter maps (also known as set-theoretical solutions to the quantum Yang-Baxter equation) is given. The central question is the integrability of the transfer dynamics. The…

In this short remark, we explain that two examples of invariance under duality for a localizing invariant $F$ hold purely formally when $F$ is $K$-theory, whereas the general statement for arbitrary localizing invariants does not reduce to…
