For a curve over a global field we consider for which integers d the d-primary part of the Brauer group can obstruct the existence of rational points. We give examples showing it is possible that there is a d-primary obstruction for…

In the present note we prove a conjecture of Demailly for finite sets of sufficiently many very general points in projective spaces. This gives a lower bound on Waldschmidt constants of such sets. Waldschmidt constants are asymptotic…

Assume that there is a set of monic polynomials $P_n(z)$ satisfying the second-order difference equation $$ A(s) P_n(z(s+1)) + B(s) P_n(z(s)) + C(s) P_n(z(s-1)) = \lambda_n P_n(z(s)), n=0,1,2,..., N$$ where $z(s), A(s), B(s), C(s)$ are some…

The paper describes the algebraic structure of the graded algebra of differentially homogeneous polynomials of fixed finite order. We show that it is a finitely generated algebra, and we exhibit a minimal set of generators. Along the way,…

We introduce a generalized notion of Schwarzenberger bundle on the projective space. Associated to this more general definition, we give an ad-hoc notion of jumping subspaces of a Steiner bundle on ${\Bbb P^n}$ (which in rank $n$ coincides…

We show that principal bundles for a semisimple group on an arbitrary affine curve over an algebraically closed field are trivial, provided the order of $\pi_1$ of the group is invertible in the ground field, or if the curve has semi-normal…

We prove the a priori bounds for infinitely renormalizable quadratic polynomials for which we can find an infinite sequence of primitive renormalizations such that the ratios of the periods of successive renormalizations is bounded. This…

Let $ \mathcal{D} = \{D_{1}, ..., D_{\ell}\} $ be a multi-degree arrangement with normal crossings on the complex projective space $ \mathbf{P}^{n} $, with degrees $ d_{1}, ..., d_{\ell} $; let $ \Omega_{\mathbf{P}^{n}}^{1}(\log…

The Bounded Height Conjecture of Bombieri, Masser, and Zannier states that for any sufficiently generic algebraic subvariety of a semiabelian $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$-variety $G$ there is an upper bound on the Weil height of the points…

Let $X$ be a normal projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. Let $D$ be a reduced Weil divisor on $X$. Let $G$ be a reductive linear algebraic group. We introduce the notion of a logarithmic connection…

It is a well-known fact that for any natural number $n$, there always exists a prime in $[n, 2n]$. Our aim in this note is to generalize this result to $[n, kn]$. A lower as well as an upper bound on the number of primes in $[n, kn]$ were…

We introduce some generalized topological concepts to deal with union-closed families, and show that one can reduce the proof of Frankl's conjecture to some families of so-called supratopological spaces. We prove some results on the…

We prove that the multiplication of sections of globally generated line bundles on a model wonderful variety M of simply connected type is always surjective. This follows by a general argument which works for every wonderful variety and…

We prove asymptotics for Serre's problem on the number of diagonal planar conics with a rational point and use this to put forward a new conjecture on counting the number of varieties in a family which are everywhere locally soluble.

Shafarevich's hyperbolicity conjecture asserts that a family of curves over a quasi-projective 1-dimensional base is isotrivial unless the logarithmic Kodaira dimension of the base is positive. More generally it has been conjectured by…

Assuming Dickson's conjecture, we obtain multidimensional analogues of recent results on the behavior of certain multiplicative arithmetic functions near twin-prime arguments. This is inspired by analogous unconditional theorems of Schinzel…

Let $n \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 3}.$ Given any Borel subset $A$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with finite and nonzero measure, we prove that the probability that the set of primitive points of a random full-rank unimodular lattice in $\mathbb{R}^n$ does…

Following an idea of Rowland we give a conjectural way to generate increasing sequences of primes using algorithms involving the gcd. These algorithms seem not so useless for searching primes since it appears we found sometime primes much…

Strongly $\mathbb{Z}$-graded algebras or principal circle bundles and associated line bundles or invertible bimodules over a class of generalized Weyl algebras $\mathcal{B}(p;q, 0)$ (over a ring of polynomials in one variable) are…

We introduce two families of diagrammatic monoidal supercategories. The first family, depending on an associative superalgebra, generalizes the oriented Brauer category. The second, depending on an involutive superalgebra, generalizes the…
