In this paper we study flatness of the restriction on some special subgerms (e.g. the reduction and the unmixed part) of the total space of a flat morphism over a smooth base space. We give a relationship between reducedness of the total…

Given a finite residue field $k$, one looks for a smoothness basis that is invariant under the automorphism group of $k$. We construct models for some finite fields that admit such a basis. This work aims at accelerating algorithms for…

We introduce and study the base locus and the strong base locus of a projective variety X. The base locus of X parametrizes configurations of smooth points of X where the span of the tangent spaces of X at these points intersects X at some…

For a mixing shift of finite type, the associated automorphism group has a rich algebraic structure, and yet we have few criteria to distinguish when two such groups are isomorphic. We introduce a stabilization of the automorphism group,…

The purpose of this note is to show that the regular locus of a complex variety is locally parabolic at the singular set. This yields that the regular locus of a compact complex variety, e.g., of a projective variety, is parabolic. We give…

We study the existence of new features in lumplike solutions in models of a real scalar field in two dimensional flat spacetime. We present new models and field configurations that exhibit a non standard decay, shrinking or stretching the…

We study some basic properties of sofic-Dyck shifts and finite-type-Dyck shifts. We prove that the class of sofic-Dyck shifts is stable under proper conjugacies. We prove a Decomposition Theorem of a proper conjugacy between edge-Dyck…

We develop foundational aspects of stability theory in affine logic. On the one hand, we prove appropriate affine versions of many classical results, including definability of types, existence of non-forking extensions, and other…

In the moduli space of semistable $\text{SL}(r, \mathbb{C})$-Higgs bundles, we show that there exists a sublocus of the upward flow through a polystable $\mathbb{C}^{*}$-fixed point, which is Lagrangian on its intersection with the stable…

Let $\pi: X \longrightarrow C$ be a fibration with reduced fibers over a curve $C$ and consider a polarization $H$ on the surface $X$. Let $E$ be a stable vector bundle of rank $2$ on $C$. We prove that the pullback $\pi^*E$ is a $H-$stable…

Under some mild assumptions, an orientation-preserving branched covering map of marked $2$-spheres induces a pullback map between the corresponding Teichm\"uller spaces. By analyzing the associated pushforward operator acting on integrable…

We study the local geometry of the pullback of a variety via a finite holomorphic map. In particular, we are looking for properties of $V = F^{-1}(W)$ such that if $V$ has the property $A$, then $W$ must have the property $A$. We show that…

We describe a new approach to the definition of the moduli functor of stable varieties. While there is wide agreement as to what classes of varieties should appear, the notion of a family of stable surfaces is quite subtle, as key numerical…

We introduce and study the restricted volume of a divisor along a subvariety. Our main result is a description of the irreducible components of the augmented base locus by the vanishing of the restricted volume.

Let $f$ be an endomorphism of the projective line. There is a natural conjugation action on the space of such morphisms by elements of the projective linear group. The group of automorphisms, or stabilizer group, of a given $f$ for this…

We propose an alternative definition for families of stable pairs $(X,D)$ over a possibly non-reduced base when $D$ is reduced, by replacing $(X,D)$ with an appropriate orbifold pair $(\mathcal X,\mathcal D)$. This definition of a stable…

Let $f:X \to S$ be a projective morphism of noetherian schemes and let $L$ be an invertible sheaf on $X$. We show that the relative augmented base locus of $L$ coincides with the relative exceptional locus of $L$. We also prove a…

Algebraic varieties which are locally isomorphic to open subsets of affine space will be called {\em plain}. Plain varieties are smooth and rational. The converse is true for curves and surfaces, and unknown in general. It is shown that…

In this paper, a method for constructing a near optimal normal basis for algebraic extensions of a finite field is described. In each extension, except for the squares of basis elements, the product of two distinct normal basis elements can…

We show that an irreducible component of the Hodge locus of a polarizable variation of Hodge structure of weight 0 on a smooth complex variety X is defined over an algebraically closed subfield k of finite transcendence degree if X is…
