A topological space $X$ is a $\Delta$-space (or $X \in \Delta$) if for any decreasing sequence $\{A_n : n < \omega\}$ of subsets of $X$ with empty intersection there is a (decreasing) sequence $\{U_n : n < \omega\}$ of open sets with empty…

We study geodesics of the form $\gamma(t)=\pi(\exp(tX)\exp(tY))$, $X,Y\in \fr{g}=\operatorname{Lie}(G)$, in homogeneous spaces $G/K$, where $\pi:G\rightarrow G/K$ is the natural projection. These curves naturally generalise homogeneous…

The large-scale geometry of hyperbolic metric spaces exhibits many distinctive features, such as the stability of quasi-geodesics (the Morse Lemma), the visibility property, and the homeomorphism between visual boundaries induced by a…

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…

This paper studies a notion of parameterized flatness in the enriched context: p-flatness where the parameter p stands for a class of presheaves. One obtains a completion of a category A by considering the category F_p(A) of p-flat…

For a compact Riemann surface X of positive genus, the space of sections of certain theta bundle on moduli of bundles of rank r and level k admits a natural map to (the dual of) a similar space of sections of rank k and level r (the strange…

Let $X$ be a perfectoid space with tilt $X^\flat$. We construct a canonical map $\theta:\operatorname{Pic} X^\flat\to\lim\operatorname{Pic} X$ where the (inverse) limit is taken over the $p$-power map, and show that $\theta$ is an…

Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a Type $\mathcal{A}$ affine surface. We show that $\mathcal{M}$ is linearly strongly projectively flat. We use the quasi-Einstein equation together with the condition that $\mathcal{M}$ is strongly projectively flat to…

Let X be a path connected, compact metric space and let A be a unital separable simple nuclear Z-stable real rank zero C*-algebra. We classify all the unital *-embeddings (up to approximate unitary equivalence) of C(X) into A. Specifically,…

In a 4-manifold, the composition of a Riemannian Einstein metric with an almost paracomplex structure that is isometric and parallel, defines a neutral metric that is conformally flat and scalar flat. In this paper, we study hypersurfaces…

Let $G$ be a complex connected reductive algebraic group that acts on a smooth complex algebraic variety $X$, and let $E$ be a $G$-equivariant algebraic vector bundle over $X$. A section of $E$ is regular if it is transversal to the zero…

Given an irreducible non-spherical non-affine (possibly non-proper) building $X$, we give sufficient conditions for a group $G < \Aut(X)$ to admit an infinite-dimensional space of non-trivial quasi-morphisms. The result applies to all…

We study entry loci of varieties and their irreducibility from the perspective of $X$-ranks with respect to a projective variety $X$. These loci are the closures of the points that appear in an $X$-rank decomposition of a general point in…

We prove that any group acting essentially without a fixed point at infinity on an irreducible finite-dimensional CAT(0) cube complex contains a rank one isometry. This implies that the Rank Rigidity Conjecture holds for CAT(0) cube…

Let $A$ and $X$ be nonempty, bounded and closed subsets of a geodesic metric space $(E,d)$. The minimization (resp. maximization) problem denoted by $\min(A,X)$ (resp. $\max(A,X)$) consists in finding $(a_0,x_0) \in A \times X$ such that…

Let $G_0=K\ltimes\mathfrak p$ be the Cartan motion group associated with a noncompact semisimple Riemannian symmetric pair $(G, K)$. Let $\frak a$ be a maximal abelian subspace of $\mathfrak p$ and let $\p=\a+\q$ be the corresponding…

It is shown that, for an arbitrary free and minimal $\mathbb Z^n$-action on a compact Hausdorff space $X$, the crossed product C*-algebra $\mathrm{C}(X)\rtimes\mathbb Z^n$ always has stable rank one, i.e., invertible elements are dense.…

A theoretical development is carried to establish fundamental results about rank-initial embeddings and automorphisms of countable non-standard models of set theory, with a keen eye for their sets of fixed points. These results are then…

We first prove that given a hyperbolic metric $h$ on a closed surface $S$, any flat metric on $S$ with negative singular curvatures isometrically embeds as a convex polyhedral Cauchy surface in a unique future-complete flat globally…

We study two aspects of the loop group formulation for isometric immersions with flat normal bundle of space forms. The first aspect is to examine the loop group maps along different ranges of the loop parameter. This leads to various…
