In this article we prove an upper bound for a Hilbert polynomial on quaternionic Kaehler manifolds of positive scalar curvature. As corollaries we obtain bounds on the quaternionic volume and the degree of the associated twistor space.…

We give an upper bound for the rank $r$ of homogeneous (even) Clifford structures on compact manifolds of non-vanishing Euler characteristic. More precisely, we show that if $r=2^a\cdot b$ with $b$ odd, then $r\le 9$ for $a=0$, $r\le 10$…

A combination of rational mappings and Schlesinger transformations for a matrix form of the hypergeometric equation is used to construct higher order transformations for the Gauss hypergeometric function.

In this paper we give an upper bound, in characteristic 0, for the cohomological dimension of a graded ideal in a polynomial ring such that the quotient has depth at least 3. In positive characteristic the same bound holds true by a…

Let $V$ be a smooth projective 3-fold of general type. Denote by $K^{3}$, a rational number, the self-intersection of the canonical sheaf of any minimal model of $V$. One defines $K^{3}$ as a canonical volume of $V$. The paper is devoted to…

Suppose an orientation preserving action of a finite group $G$ on the closed surface $\Sigma_g$ of genus $g>1$ extends over the 3-torus $T^3$ for some embedding $\Sigma_g\subset T^3$. Then $|G|\le 12(g-1)$, and this upper bound $12(g-1)$…

We give a lower bound for the degree of a finite cover of a hyperbolic 3-manifold which fibers over the circle, in terms of volume, the diameter of the manifold and other new invariants.

This paper contains a purely topological theorem and a geometric application. The topological theorem states that if M is a simple closed orientable 3-manifold such that \pi_1(M) contains a genus g surface group and H_1(M;Z/2Z) has rank at…

We study the relationship between pairs of topological dynamical systems $ (X,T) $ and $ (X',T') $, where $ (X',T') $ is the quotient of $ (X,T) $ under the action of a finite group $ G $. We describe three phenomena concerning the…

We refine upper bounds for the classical exponents of uniform approximation for a linear form on the Veronese curve in dimension from $3$ to $9$. For dimension three, this in particular shows that a bound previously obtained by two…

We prove a sharp degree bound for polynomials constant on a hyperplane with a fixed number of distinct monomials for dimensions 2 and 3. We study the connection with monomial CR maps of hyperquadrics and prove similar bounds in this setup…

In this paper, we study the maximization problem of the second non-zero Laplace eigenvalue $\lambda_2(T,g)$ on a torus $T$, among all unit-area metrics in a fixed conformal class. First, we obtain a new upper bound for…

For Gaussian hypergeometric functions $F(x)= F(a,b;c;x),$ $a,b,c>0,$ we consider the quotient $ Q_F(x,y)= (F(x)+F(y))/F(z)$ and the difference $ D_F(x,y)= F(x)+F(y)-F(z)$ for $0<x,y<1$ with $z=x+y-xy \,.$ We give best possible bounds for…

The double torus provides a relativistic model for a closed 2D cosmos with topology of genus 2 and constant negative curvature. Its unfolding into an octagon extends to an octagonal tessellation of its universal covering, the hyperbolic…

We provide a nontrivial upper bound for the nonnegative rank of rank-three matrices, which allows us to prove that [6(n+1)/7] linear inequalities suffice to describe a convex n-gon up to a linear projection.

We show that all hyperbolic surfaces admit an ideal triangulation with bounded shear parameters. This upper bound depends logarithmically on the topology of the surface.

In this paper, we determine, in the case of the Laplacian on the flat two-dimensional torus (R/Z) 2 , all the eigenvalues having an eigenfunction which satisfies Courant's theorem with equality (Courant-sharp situation). Following the…

We identify a link between regular matroids and torus representations all of whose isotropy groups have an odd number of components. Applying Seymour's 1980 classification of the former objects, we obtain a classification of the latter. In…

We find an upper bound for the asymptotic dimension of a hyperbolic metric space with a set of geodesics satisfying a certain boundedness condition studied by Bowditch. The primary example is a collection of tight geodesics on the curve…

In this paper we study extremal behaviors of the mean to max ratio of the $p$-torsion function with respect to the geometry of the domain. For $p$ larger than the dimension of the space $N$, we prove that the upper bound is uniformly below…
