We prove two kinds of fibering theorems for maps X --> P, where X and P are Poincare spaces. The special case of P = S^1 yields a Poincare duality analogue of the fibering theorem of Browder and Levine.
Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve of genus $g$ and gonality 4. We show that the canonical model of $X$ is contained in a uniquely defined surface, ruled by conics, whose geometry is deeply related to that of $X$. This surface…
Let $M_{\beta}$ denote the moduli space of stable one-dimensional sheaves on a del Pezzo surface $S$, supported on curves of class $\beta$ with Euler characteristic one. We show that the divisibility property of the Poincar\'e polynomial of…
The polynomial invariants $q_d$ for a large class of smooth 4-manifolds are shown to satisfy universal relations. The relations reflect the possible genera of embedded surfaces in the 4-manifold and lead to a structure theorem for the…
We consider a one-dimensional singularly perturbed 4th order problem with the additional feature of a shift term. An expansion into a smooth term, boundary layers and an inner layer yields a formal solution decomposition, and together with…
We extend Poincar\'e duality in \'etale cohomology from smooth schemes to regular ones. This is achieved via a formalism of trace maps for local complete intersection morphisms.
In this paper we give a new and simplified proof of the variational Hodge conjecture for complete intersection cycles on a hypersurface in projective space.
We give a simple quaternionic proof of a recent result of Goldmakher and Pollack on restricted sums of four integral squares.
We prove a flat strip theorem for 2-dimensional ptolemaic spaces.
Let $R_4$ be the space of rational plane curves of degree $4$. In this paper, we obtain a sheaf theoretic compactification of $R_4$ via the space of $\alpha$-semistable pairs on $\mathbb{P}^2$ and its birational relations through…
Following the line of attack from La Bret\`eche, Browning and Peyre, we prove Manin's conjecture in its strong form conjectured by Peyre for a family of Ch\^atelet surfaces which are defined as minimal proper smooth models of affine…
It is shown that, under some natural assumptions, the tensor product of differentially smooth algebras and the skew-polynomial rings over differentially smooth algebras are differentially smooth.
A conjectural recursive relation for the Poincar\'e polynomial of the Hitchin moduli space is derived from wallcrossing in the refined local Donaldson-Thomas theory of a curve. A doubly refined generalization of this theory is also…
We construct a (smooth, projective) surface over the field of rational numbers, which is a counterexample to the Hasse principle not accounted for by the Manin obstruction. The construction relies on the classical 4-descent on elliptic…
We resolve a 25 year old problem by showing that The Paving Conjecture is equivalent to The Paving Conjecture for Triangular Matrices.
Let $X$ be a smooth polarized algebraic surface over the compex number field. We discuss the invariants obtained from the moduli stacks of semistable sheaves of arbitrary ranks on $X$. For that purpose, we construct the virtual fundamental…
For each odd integer $p > 1$, we construct infinitely many pairwise non-diffeomorphic irreducible smooth structures on a definite 4-manifold with infinite fundamental group whose abelianization is $\Z/2p\Z\times \Z/2\Z$.
Let $X$ be a normal complex space such that the tangent sheaf $T_X$ is locally free and locally admits a basis consisting of pairwise commuting vector fields. Then $X$ is smooth.
We present a proof of the Moon in a puddle theorem, and use its key lemma to prove a generalization of the four-vertex theorem.
For a Poincare-Einstein manifold under certain restrictions, X. Chen, M. Lai and F. Wang proved a sharp inequality relating Yamabe invariants. We show that the inequality is true without any restriction.
