We obtain a geometric construction of a ``standard monomial basis'' for the homogeneous coordinate ring associated with any ample line bundle on any flag variety. This basis is compatible with Schubert varieties, opposite Schubert…

We construct geometric generators of the effective $S^1$-equivariant Spin- (and oriented) bordism groups with two inverted. We apply this construction to the question of which $S^1$-manifolds admit invariant metrics of positive scalar…

We prove that every perfect torsion theory for a ring $R$ is differential (in the sense of [P. E. Bland, Differential torsion theory, Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra 204 (2006) 1 -- 8]). In this case, we construct the extension of a…

We prove that the Tate conjecture for divisors is ''generically true'' for mod p reductions of complex projective varieties with $h^{2, 0} = 1$, under a mild assumption on moduli. By refining this general result, we establish a new case of…

We give a new construction of oriented manifolds having the boundary $\CC P^{2k+1}$ for each $k \geq 0$. The main tool is the theory of quasitoric manifolds.

We introduce the concept of $r$-equilateral $m$-gons. We prove the existence of $r$-equilateral $p$-gons in $\mathbb R^d$ if $r<d$ and the existence of equilateral $p$-gons in the image of continuous injective maps $f:S^d\to \mathbb…

M. Kontsevich conjectured and T. Bitoun proved that if M is a nonzero holonomic D-module then the p-support of a generic reduction of M to characteristic p>0 is Lagrangian. We provide a new elementary proof of this theorem and also…

To define enumerative invariants in geometry, one often needs orientations on moduli spaces of geometric objects. This monograph develops a new bordism-theoretic point of view on orientations of moduli spaces. Let $X$ be a manifold with…

We develop a theory of motivic spectra in a broad generality; in particular $\mathbb{A}^1$-homotopy invariance is not assumed. As an application, we prove that $K$-theory of schemes is a universal Zariski sheaf of spectra which is equipped…

The purpose of this note is to give an affirmative answer to a conjecture appearing in [Integral Transforms Spec. Funct. 26 (2015) 90-95].

We present new mathematical alternatives for explaining rotation curves of spiral galaxies in the MOND context. For given total masses, it is shown that various mathematical alternatives to MOND, while predicting flat rotation curves for…

We give a complete calculation of the cobordism ring of stably almost complex $C_p$-manifolds in terms of generators and relations. We also compare these generators with the geometrically-defined generators obtained by Kosniowski.

We compute the p-widths, $\{\omega_p\}$, for the hemisphere with the standard round metric. This provides the first example of a manifold with boundary for which the $p$-widths are known for all $p$.

Generalized geometry finds many applications in the mathematical description of some aspects of string theory. In a nutshell, it explores various structures on a generalized tangent bundle associated to a given manifold. In particular,…

We introduce an equivariant Pontrjagin-Thom construction which identifies equivariant cohomotopy classes with certain fixed point bordism classes. This provides a concrete geometric model for equivariant cohomotopy which works for any…

We study PL bordism theories from a quantitative perspective. Such theories include those of PL manifolds, ordinary homology theory, as well as various more exotic theories such as bordism of Witt spaces. In all these cases we show that a…

We state a conjecture on the reduction modulo the defining characteristic of a unipotent representation of a finite reductive group.

For a fixed closed manifold $P$, we construct a cobordism category of embedded manifolds with a single Baas-Sullivan singularity of type $P$. Our main theorem identifies the homotopy type of the classifying space of this cobordism category…

As already done for the matrix case for example in [Joe Harris, Algebraic Geometry - A first course, p.256] we give a parametrization of the Bouligand tangent cone of the variety of tensors of bounded TT rank. We discuss how the proof…

This is an exposition of facts about p-local spectra, p-complete spectra and modules over the p-complete sphere spectrum, including homological criteria for finiteness. Most things are well-known to the experts, with a couple of potential…
