We consider several notions of genericity appearing in algebraic geometry and commutative algebra. Special emphasis is put on various stability notions which are defined in a combinatorial manner and for which a number of equivalent…
A couple of complex projective plane curves are said to make a Zariski pair if they have the same degree and the same type of singularities, but their embeddings in the projective plane are topologically different. In this paper, we present…
A positive definite matrix is called logarithmically sparse if its matrix logarithm has many zero entries. Such matrices play a significant role in high-dimensional statistics and semidefinite optimization. In this paper, logarithmically…
We prove the Zariski dense orbit conjecture in positive characteristic for endomorphisms of $\mathbb{G}_a^N$ defined over $\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}$.
An infinite dimensional algebra, which is useful for deriving exact solutions of the generalized pairing problem, is introduced. A formalism for diagonalizing the corresponding Hamiltonian is also proposed. The theory is illustrated with…
A framework is developed to describe the Zariski topologies on the prime and primitive spectra of a quantum algebra $A$ in terms of the (known) topologies on strata of these spaces and maps between the collections of closed sets of…
This paper deals with $n$-dimensional algebras, over any field, which have only trivial derivation (automorphism) and simple algebras. It is shown that the corresponding sets of algebras are not empty and, in algebraically closed field…
A strategy to address the inverse Galois problem over Q consists of exploiting the knowledge of Galois representations attached to certain automorphic forms. More precisely, if such forms are carefully chosen, they provide compatible…
This article is on the inverse Galois problem in Galois theory of linear iterative differential equations in positive characteristic. We show that it has an affirmative answer for reduced algebraic group schemes over any iterative…
This is the first part of our work on Zariski decomposition structures, where we study Zariski decompositions using Legendre-Fenchel type transforms. In this way we define a Zariski decomposition for curve classes. This decomposition…
In this paper, we establish the Zariski decompositions of arithmetic R-divisors of continuous type on arithmetic surfaces and investigate several properties. We also develop the general theory of arithmetic R-divisors on arithmetic…
We develop a theory of nearby and vanishing cycles in the context of finite-coefficient Zariski-constructible sheaves over a non-archimedean field which is non-trivially valued, complete, algebraically closed, and of mixed characteristic or…
We exhibit an algorithm to compute the strongest polynomial (or algebraic) invariants that hold at each location of a given affine program (i.e., a program having only non-deterministic (as opposed to conditional) branching and all of whose…
We consider the finiteness problem for central configurations of the $n-$body problem. We prove that, for $n\geq4$, there exists a (Zariski) closed subset $B$ in the mass space $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, such that if $(m_1,...,m_n) \in…
In the following article we consider the non-linear filtering problem in continuous-time and in particular the solution to Zakai's equation or the normalizing constant. We develop a methodology to produce finite variance, almost surely…
We construct a Zariski decomposition for cycle classes of arbitrary codimension. This decomposition is an analogue of well-known constructions for divisors. Examples illustrate how Zariski decompositions of cycle classes reflect the…
Given a point S and any irreducible algebraic curve C in P^2 (with any type of singularities), we consider the caustic of reflection defined as the Zariski closure of the envelope of the reflected lines from the point S on the curve C. We…
These lecture notes provide a unified overview of most known canonical desingularization methods in characteristic zero. It starts with discussing the classical method, and then proceeds with the recently discovered ones: logarithmic…
In this article, we investigate the existence and uniqueness of a positive solution for a class of singular nonlinear elliptic problem with boundary condition. Our result holds in fractional Orlicz-Sobolev spaces.
Updated version. Includes comments on the advances in the field from the Kyoto workshop on Resolution of Singularities in Positive Characteristic, December 2008. The article surveys the theory of kangaroo points as they appear in the…
