Noether's theorem on the equivalence of symmetry and conservation laws has applications to geometric problems on symmetric spaces. We remind the reader of the theorem and give an application to a variational problem on hyperbolic surfaces.
Let $A/K$ be an abelian variety over a number field $K$. We prove in this article that a good lower bound (in terms of the degree $[K(P):K]$) for the N\'eron-Tate height of the points $P$ of infinite order modulo every strict abelian…
For each odd sphere $S^n$ with $n=2m+1\ge 5$, we consider the Sasaki volume functional $\mathrm{Vol}^S(V)=\int_{S^n}\sqrt{\det(I+(\nabla V)^\top(\nabla V))}\,d\mathrm{vol}$ on smooth unit tangent vector fields $V$. Using the Gluck--Ziller…
We give an existence result on (H,A)-stable sheaves on a K3 or abelian surface X with primitive triple of invariants (rank,first Chern class,Euler characteristics) in the integral cohomology lattice. Such a result yields the existence of…
We prove a global Torelli theorem for the moduli space of marked triples (X,m,A), consisting of an irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifold X, a marking m of its second integral cohomology, and a stable and rigid sheaf A of Azumaya…
We prove a general local rigidity theorem for pull-backs of homogeneous forms on reductive symmetric spaces under representations of discrete groups. One application of the theorem is that the volume of a closed manifold locally modelled on…
In this paper, inspired by work of Fano, Morin and Campana--Flenner, we give a full projective classification of (however singular) varieties of dimension 3 whose general hyperplane sections have negative Kodaira dimension, and we partly…
This work settles the Eichler-Shimura congruence relation of Blasius and Rogawski for certain 5-dimensional Hodge-type Shimura varieties, that were not tractable by previously known methods. In a more general context we introduce a…
Let $\Gamma$ be a nonuniform lattice acting on real hyperbolic n-space. We show that in dimension greater than or equal to 4, the volume of a representation is constant on each connected component of the representation variety of $\Gamma$…
The first part of this paper develops a geometric setting for differential-difference equations that resolves an open question about the extent to which continuous symmetries can depend on discrete independent variables. For general…
Let $f:X \rightarrow \Delta $ be a one-parameter semistable degeneration of $m$-dimensional compact complex manifolds. Assume that each component of the central fiber $X_0$ is K\"ahler. Then, we provide a criterion for a general fiber to…
Let (S,H) be a polarized K3 surface. We define Brill-Noether filtration on moduli spaces of vector bundles on S. Assume that (c_1(E),H) > 0 for a sheaf E in the moduli space. We give a formula for the expected dimension of the Brill-Noether…
We develop a class of uniformizations for certain weight 3 variations of Hodge structure (VHS). The analytic properties of the VHS are used to establish a conjecture of Eskin, Kontsevich, M\"oller, and Zorich on Lyapunov exponents.…
We prove a Noether-type symmetry theorem for invariant optimal control problems with unrestricted controls. The result establishes weak conservation laws along all the minimizers of the problems, including those minimizers which do not…
We define the "sum of squares of the wavelengths" of a Riemannian surface (M,g) to be the regularized trace of the inverse of the Laplacian. We normalize by scaling and adding a constant, to obtain a "mass", which is scale invariant and…
We categorify the inclusion-exclusion principle for partially ordered topological spaces and schemes to a filtration on the derived category of sheaves. As a consequence, we obtain functorial spectral sequences that generalize the two…
For closed and oriented hyperbolic surfaces, a formula of Witten establishes an equality between two volume forms on the space of representations of the surface in a semisimple Lie group. One of the forms is a Reidemeister torsion, the…
We examine the relationship between nonabelian Hodge theory for Riemann surfaces and the theory of vector valued modular forms. In particular, we explain how one might use this relationship to prove a conjectural three-term inequality on…
In this paper, we generalize the main results of [1] and [31] to Lorentz spaces, using a simple procedure. The main results are the following. Let $n\geq 3$ and let $u$ be a Leray-Hopf solution to the $n$-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations…
Let $k$ be a field with a real valuation $\nu$ and $R$ a $k$-algebra. We show that there exist a $k$-algebra $K$ and a real valuation $\mu$ on $K$ extending $\nu$ such that any real ring valuation of $R$ is induced by $\mu$ via some…
