We study the Plateau problem with a lower dimensional obstacle in $\mathbb{R}^n$. Intuitively, in $\mathbb{R}^3$ this corresponds to a soap film (spanning a given contour) that is pushed from below by a "vertical" 2D half-space (or some…

Building on and extending tools from variational analysis, we prove Kuratowski convergence of sets of simplicial area minimizers to minimizers of the smooth Douglas-Plateau problem under simplicial refinement. This convergence is with…

We assign real numbers to finite sheeted coverings of compact CW complexes designed as finite counterparts to the Novikov-Shubin numbers. We prove an approximation theorem in the case of virtually cyclic fundamental groups employing methods…

Following Schmidt, Thurnheer and Bugeaud-Kristensen, we study how Dirichlet's theorem on linear forms needs to be modified when one requires that the vectors of coefficients of the linear forms make a bounded acute angle with respect to a…

We discuss how Dokken's methods of approximate implicitization can be applied to triangular B\'ezier surfaces in both the original and weak forms. The matrices $\mathbf{D}$ and $\mathbf{M}$ that are fundamental to the respective forms of…

In this article, we consider weak del Pezzo surfaces defined over a finite field, and their associated, singular, anticanonical models. We first define arithmetic types for such surfaces, by considering the Frobenius actions on their Picard…

We give an alternative proof of the nonuniqueness of weak solutions to the surface quasigeostrophic equation (SQG) first shown in [Buckmaster-Shkoller-Vicol, '16]. Our approach proceeds directly at the level of the scalar field.…

This note gives an explicit example of transcendental Brauer-Manin obstruction to weak approximation. It has two features which the only previously known example of such obstruction did not have: the class in the Brauer group which is…

We solve the convergence case of the generalized Baker-Schmidt problem for simultaneous approximation on affine subspaces, under natural diophantine type conditions. In one of our theorems, we do not require monotonicity on the…

We extend the descent theory of Colliot-Th\'el\`ene and Sansuc to arbitrary smooth algebraic varieties by removing the condition that every invertible regular function is constant. This links the Brauer--Manin obstruction for integral…

The Banach space $E$ has the weakly compact approximation property (W.A.P. for short) if there is a constant $C < \infty$ so that for any weakly compact set $D \subset E$ and $\epsilon > 0$ there is a weakly compact operator $V: E \to E$…

We prove a rigidity result for maps between \v{C}ech-Stone remainders under fairly mild forcing axioms.

It is known that, under a necessary non-compactness assumption, the Brauer-Manin obstruction is the only one to strong approximation on homogeneous spaces $X$ under a linear group $G$ (or under a connected algebraic group, under assumption…

We prove weak approximation for isotrivial families of rationally connected varieties defined over the function field of a smooth projective complex curve.

It is known that the Brauer--Manin obstruction to the Hasse principle is vacuous for smooth Fano hypersurfaces of dimension at least $3$ over any number field. Moreover, for such varieties it follows from a general conjecture of…

In any number of space variables, we study the Cauchy problem related to the thin-film equation in the simplest case of a linearly degenerate mobility. This equation, derived from a lubrication approximation, also models the surface tension…

In this paper, we introduce a notion, called generalized Reifenberg condition, under which we prove a smooth fibration theorem for collapsed manifolds with Ricci curvature bounded below, which gives a unified proof of smooth fibration…

In this paper, we consider a quasi-linear Dirichlet system with possible competing $(p,q)$-Laplacians and convections. Due to the lack of ellipticity, monotonicity, and variational structure, the standard approaches to the existence of weak…

In a well-known paper by Bruna, Nagel and Wainger [BNW], Fourier transform decay estimates were proved for smooth hypersurfaces of finite line type bounding a convex domain. In this paper, we generalize their results in the following ways.…

Let $k$ be a number field and $X$ a smooth integral affine variety equipped with a morphism $f : X \to A^1_k$ to the affine line. Assume that all fibres of $f$ are split, for instance that they are geometrically integral. Assume that the…
