Let $f : X \longrightarrow Y$ be a proper and local complete intersection morphism of schemes. We prove that $\mathbb{R}f_{*}$ preserves perfect complexes, without any projectivity or noetherian assumptions. This provides a different proof…

In this paper we give a positive answer to the open existence problem for complex-valued harmonic morphisms from the non-compact irreducible Riemannian symmetric spaces $SL_n(R)/SO(n)$, $SU^*(2n)/Sp(n)$ and their compact duals $SU(n)/SO(n)$…

Let G be a simply-connected simple compact Lie group over the complex numbers. The affine Grassmannian is a projective ind-variety, homotopy-equivalent to the loop space of G and closely analogous to a maximal flag variety of the classical…

Let $f: X\to Y$ be a proper surjective morphism of varieties defined over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic. We prove that if $f$ has geometrically connected fibers then the induced homomorphism of $F$-divided…

We show that string theory with Dirichlet boundaries is equivalent to string theory containing surfaces with certain singular points. Surface curvature is singular at these points. A singular point is resolved in conformal coordinates to a…

Suppose $(X_n)$ is a sequence of positive-dimensional smooth projective complete intersections over $\mathbb{F}_q$ with dimensions bounded from above and with characteristic zero lifts $(\tilde{X}_n)$ to smooth projective geometrically…

In this paper we establish existence of smooth positive solutions for a singular quasilinear elliptic system involving gradient terms. The approach combines sub-supersolutions method and Schauder's fixed point theorem.

The affine Grassmannian of $SL_n$ admits an embedding into the Sato Grassmannian, which further admits a Pl\"ucker embedding into the projectivization of Fermion Fock space. Kreiman, Lakshmibai, Magyar, and Weyman describe the linear part…

The mirror theorem is generalized to any smooth projective variety X. That is, a fundamental relation between the Gromov-Witten invariants of X and Gromov-Witten invariants of complete intersections Y in X is established.

We give a $K$-theoretic criterion for a quasi-projective variety to be smooth. If $\mathbb{L}$ is a line bundle corresponding to an ample invertible sheaf on $X$, it suffices that $K_q(X) = K_q(\mathbb{L})$ for all $q\le\dim(X)+1$.

We show that smooth well formed weighted complete intersections have finite automorphism groups, with several obvious exceptions.

Given a lattice polytope Q in R^n, we define an affine scheme M(Q) that reflects the possibilities of splitting Q into a Minkowski sum. On the other hand, Q induces a toric Gorenstein singularity Y, and we construct a flat family over M(Q)…

Let $X$ be a Hamiltonian vector field defined on a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, $g$ a nowhere vanishing smooth function defined on an open dense subset $M^0$ of $M$. We will say that the vector field $Y = gX$ is conformally…

For a geometrically rational surface X over an arbitrary field of characteristic different from 2 and 3 that contains all roots of 1, we show that either X is birational to a product of a projective line and a conic, or the group of…

Let I be a finite set and CI be the algebra of functions on I. For a finite dimensional C algebra A with \CI contained in A we show that certain moduli spaces of finite dimsional modules are isomorphic to certain Grassmannian (quot-type)…

Let $X$ be a smooth proper scheme over an algebraically closed field $k$ in characteristic $p$. In this short note, by interpreting $\mathcal{D}_{X}$-modules as $F$-divided sheaves and establishing a cohomological boundedness property for…

The paper presents an analog of the old result by the author and V. Voevodsky, according to which a Riemann surface admits a conformal structure, defined by an equilateral triangulation, if and only if the corresponding algebraic curve can…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero, $X$ and $Y$ be smooth $K$-varieties, and let $G$ be a algebraic $K$-group. Given two algebraic morphisms $\varphi:X\rightarrow G$ and $\psi:Y\rightarrow G$, we define their convolution…

Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional complex vector space. Assume that $V$ is a direct sum of subspaces each of which is equipped with a nondegenerate symmetric or skew-symmetric bilinear form. In this paper, we introduce a stratification of the…

If $X$ is a smooth scheme over a perfect field of characteristic $p$, and if $\sD_X$ is the sheaf of differential operators on $X$ [EGAIV], it is well known that giving an action of $\sD_X$ on an $\sO_X$-module $\sE$ is equivalent to giving…
