We establish a generic counting formula for the Euler number of a flat vector bundle of rank $2n$ over a $2n$ dimensional closed manifold, in terms of vertices of transversal open coverings of the underlying manifold. We use the…
We study projective manifolds with nonamenable and non-residually finite fundamental groups. We generalize the uniformization theorem of our earlier note. We generalize a classical theorem of Maltsev about finitely generated subgroups of…
For $f,g:X\longrightarrow X$ continuous and commuting maps of a Hausdorff space, we investigate various conditions on $X$ and on the pair $(f,g)$ which provide existence of a coincidence value. We introduce generalized notions of the…
Irreducibility results for parabolic induction of representations of the general linear group over a local non-archimedean field can be formulated in terms of Kazhdan--Lusztig polynomials of type $A$. Spurred by these results and some…
We construct log resolutions of pairs on the blow-up of the projective space in an arbitrary number of general points and we discuss the semi-ampleness of the strict transforms. As an application we prove that the abundance conjecture holds…
The purpose of this paper is to establish an injectivity theorem generalized to pseudo-effective line bundles with transcendental (non-algebraic) singular hermitian metrics and multiplier ideal sheaves. As an application, we obtain a Nadel…
Let B be a nef and big line bundle on a smooth complex threefold X with canonical bundle K. Let x be a point on X and suppose that BC\ge3 for any curve C passing x, B^2S\ge7 for any surface S containing x, and B^3\ge51. Then K+B is spanned…
Much inspired by J. A. Wi\'sniewski's nef-value function method, we prove that in a smooth projective family over the unit disk, if the adjoint bundle of the canonical line bundle with a relatively semiample line bundle is nef on one fiber,…
A generalization of the Heisenberg algebra has been recently constructed. This generalized algebra has a characteristic function which depends on one of its generators. When this function is linear, $qJ_0+s$, it is possible to construct a…
Let $f:X\rightarrow Y$ be an algebraic fibre space between normal projective varieties and $F$ be a general fibre of $f$. We prove an Iitaka-type inequality $\kappa(X,-K_X)\leq \kappa(F,-K_F)+\kappa(Y,-K_Y)$ under some mild conditions. We…
We have investigated the generality of inflation (the probability of inflation in other words) in closed FRW models for a wide class of quintessence potentials. It is shown that inflation is not suppressed for most of them and for a wide…
The purpose of this paper is to establish a subadditivity theorem of Okounkov bodies for algebraic fiber spaces. As applications, we obtain a product formula of the restricted canonical volumes for algebraic fiber spaces and a sufficient…
We show that Lieb's concavity theorem holds more generally for any unitary invariant matrix function $\phi:\mathbf{H}_+^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}_+^n$ that is concave and satisfies H\"older's inequality. Concretely, we prove the joint…
Let $E$ be a vector bundle and $S_a$, $S_b$ the Schur functors associated to partitions $a$ and $b$. Previously we have shown that ampleness of $S_aE$ implies ampleness of $S_bE$ when $a$ is greater than $b$ in the dominance partial order.…
Recently a broad class of superconformal inflationary models was found leading to a universal observational prediction $n_s=1-2/N$ and $r=12/N^2$. Here we generalize this class of models by introducing a parameter $\alpha$ inversely…
The generalized Kneser graph $K(n,k,t)$ for integers $k>t>0$ and $n>2k-t$ is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-subsets of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ with two vertices adjacent if and only if they share less than $t$ elements. We determine the…
We prove the abundance conjecture for projective slc surfaces over arbitrary fields of positive characteristic. The proof relies on abundance for lc surfaces over abritrary fields, proved by Tanaka, and on the technique of Hacon and Xu to…
In this paper we combine methods from additive combinatorics and Diophantine geometry to study the generalised sum-product phenomenon in algebraic groups. As an application of this circle of ideas, we resolve a conjecture of Bremner on…
The Abundance conjecture predicts that on a minimal projective klt pair $(X,\Delta)$, the adjoint divisor $K_X+\Delta$ is semiample. When $\chi(X,\mathcal O_X)\neq0$, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the conjecture to hold…
Let $L$ be a line bundle on a scheme $X$, proper over a field. The property of $L$ being nef can sometimes be "thickened", allowing reductions to positive characteristic. We call such line bundles arithmetically nef. It is known that a line…
