We consider smooth surfaces $S \subset \Pq$ containing a plane curve $P$ and prove some general result concerning the linear system $|H-P|$. We then look at regular surfaces lying on hypersurfaces of degree $s$ having a plane of…

We prove two determinant evaluations attached to Sun's conjectures on matrices of Legendre symbols. The first one resolves the \(p\equiv1\pmod4\) part of Conjecture 4.8(i) by reducing the determinant with four indeterminates to a four-entry…

Let $(P, Q)$ be a pair of Jacobian polynomials. We can show that $ <P, Q>+l+2g(P)-2= 0= <P, [P,Q]>$, where $<f, g>$ is the intersection number of $f, g\in \CC[x, y]$ in the affine plane, $l$ is the number of branch at point at infinity and…

The purpose of this paper was to give an algebraic analog of Poincare duality. But there is a mistake in the proof of the main theorem. It will be corrected as soon as possible.

We study the BPS invariants for local del Pezzo surfaces, which can be obtained as the signed Euler characteristic of the moduli spaces of stable one-dimensional sheaves on the surface $S$. We calculate the Poincare polynomials of the…

We improve the main results in the paper from the title using a recent refinement of Bronshtein's theorem due to Colombini, Orr\'u, and Pernazza. They are then in general best possible both in the hypothesis and in the outcome. As a…

In this paper, we construct the supersymmetric spinning polynomials. These are orthogonal polynomials that serve as an expansion basis for the residue or discontinuity of four-point scattering amplitudes, respecting four-dimensional super…

We investigate the possibility of embedding minimal abelian surfaces in smooth toric 4-folds with Picard number 2. The existence of such an embedding imposes conditions on the 4-fold, which we partly describe. On the other hand, we exhibit…

In this note, simple proofs of certain well-known results involving the positive square root of positive matrices are given.

We prove a discrete analog of a certain four-vertex theorem for space curves. The smooth case goes back to the work of Beniamino Segre and states that a closed and smooth curve whose tangent indicatrix has no self-intersections admits at…

We build a variant of Collatz Conjecture for polynomials over $\mathbb{F}_2$ and we prove that it is solved. By the way, we give several examples.

We give an Euler Maclaurin formula with remainder for the sum of the values of a smooth function on the integral points in a simple integral polytope. This formula is proved by elementary methods.

The aim of this note is to show that Poincar\'e inequalities imply corresponding weighted versions in a quite general setting. Fractional Poincar\'e inequalities are considered, too. The proof is short and does not involve covering…

It is not known whether the realisation part of the $s$-cobordism theorem holds for smooth 4-manifolds, nor whether every pair of smoothly $h$-cobordant 4-manifolds is also smoothly $s$-cobordant. We provide some new conditions under which…

We recall the history of the proof of Seifert fibre space conjecture, as well as it motivations and its several generalisations.

We prove Manin's conjecture for a split singular quartic del Pezzo surface with singularity type $2\Aone$ and eight lines. This is achieved by equipping the surface with a conic bundle structure. To handle the sum over the family of conics,…

In this paper we prove the Knop conjecture asserting that two smooth affine spherical varieties with the same weight monoids are equivariantly isomorphic. We also state and prove a uniqueness property for not necessarily smooth affine…

We prove that the canonical 4-dimensional surgery problems can be solved after passing to a double cover. This contrasts the long-standing conjecture about the validity of the topological surgery theorem for arbitrary fundamental groups…

There has been substantial calculational progress in the last few years for gauge theory amplitudes which involve massless four dimensional particles. One of the central ingredients in this has been the ability to keep precise track of the…

This paper investigates the space of codimension zero embeddings of a Poincare duality space in a disk. One of our main results exhibits a tower that interpolates from the space of Poincare immersions to a certain space of "unlinked"…
