Let $\text{G}(n)$ be equal either to $\text{PO}(n,1),\text{PU}(n,1)$ or $\text{PSp}(n,1)$ and let $\Gamma \leq \text{G}(n)$ be a uniform lattice. Denote by $\mathbb{H}^n_K$ the hyperbolic space associated to $\text{G}(n)$, where $K$ is a…

We get new results (and rederive some know ones) on smooth surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^n$ by unifying several view points into a coherent general view. Namely, we show and use new relations of the evolute (caustic) with the curvature ellipse,…

A seminal technique of theoretical physics called Wick's theorem interprets the Gaussian matrix integral of the products of the trace of powers of Hermitian matrices as the number of labelled maps with a given degree sequence, sorted by…

Let $X/S$ be a smooth family of smooth projective varieties, where $S$ is a smooth affine curve over a field $k$ of characteristic $0.$ We relate the differential fundamental groupoid scheme of $X/k$ with the differential fundamental…

In a graph $G$, a subset of vertices $S \subseteq V(G)$ is said to be cyclable if there is a cycle containing the vertices in some order. $G$ is said to be $k$-cyclable if any subset of $k \geq 2$ vertices is cyclable. If any $k$…

We consider hypersurfaces in the real Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ ($n\geq2$) which are relatively normalized. We give necessary and sufficient conditions a) for a surface of negative Gaussian curvature in $\mathbb{R}^3$ to be ruled,…

We prove that the Gauss map of a surface of constant mean curvature embedded in Minkowski space is harmonic. This fact will then be used to study 2+1 gravity for surfaces of genus higher than one. By considering the energy of the Gauss map,…

Given an elliptic curve $E$ over a number field $K$, the $\ell$-torsion points $E[\ell]$ of $E$ define a Galois representation $\gal(\bar{K}/K) \to \gl_2(\ff_\ell)$. A famous theorem of Serre states that as long as $E$ has no Complex…

We define a Gauss map $\gamma:M\rightarrow\mathbb{S}^{6}$ of an oriented hypersurface $M$ of the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{7}$ and prove that $\gamma$ is harmonic if and only if $M$ has CMC. Results on the geometry and topology of CMC…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\gamma (G)$ denote the domination number of $G$, i.e. the cardinality of a smallest set of vertices $S$ such that every vertex of $G$ is either in $S$ or adjacent to a vertex in $S$. Matheson and Tarjan conjectured…

In a previous paper, the authors proved that the Prym variety of any non-cyclic etale triple cover of a smooth curve of genus 2 is a Jacobian variety of dimension 2. This gives a map from the moduli space of such covers to the moduli space…

We give the first examples of $\mathcal{O}$-acyclic smooth projective geometrically connected varieties over the function field of a complex curve, whose index is not equal to one. More precisely, we construct a family of Enriques surfaces…

Given a number field $k$ and a finite $k$-group $G$, the Tame Approximation Problem for $G$ asks whether the restriction map $H^1(k,G)\to\prod_{v\in\Sigma}H^1(k_v,G)$ is surjective for every finite set of places $\Sigma\subseteq\Omega_k$…

We prove that random hypergraphs are asymptotically almost surely resiliently Hamiltonian. Specifically, for any $\gamma>0$ and $k\ge3$, we show that asymptotically almost surely, every subgraph of the binomial random $k$-uniform hypergraph…

Let $M$ be a smooth surface in $\mathbb R^3$ (or a complex surface in $\mathbb C^3$) and $k\geq 2$ be an integer. At any point on $M$ and for any plane in $\mathbb R^3$, we construct a holomorphic map-germ $(\mathbb C^2,0)\to(\mathbb…

A nodal Enriques surface can have at most 8 nodes. We give an explicit description of Enriques surfaces with 8 nodes, showing that they are quotients of products of elliptic curves by a group isomorphic to $\Z_2^2$ or to $\Z_2^3$ acting…

We consider a surface embedded in the Euclidean 3-space and fix a tangential vector $v$ at a given point $p$ on the surface. In this paper, we first review a history of the formula obtained by Mannheim, d'Ocagne and Koenderink, which…

We prove the generic injectivity of the Prym map, sending a double covering of an elliptic curve ramified at r>4 points to its polarized Prym variety. For r=6 the map is birational.

For $n\geq 2$, we consider the map on $M_n(\mathbb K)$ given by evaluation of a polynomial $f(X_1, \ldots, X_m)$ over the field $\mathbb K$. In this article, we explore the image of the diagonal map given by $f=\delta_1 X_1^{k_1} + \delta_2…
