We use perfectoid spaces associated to abelian varieties and Siegel moduli spaces to study torsion points and ordinary CM points. We reprove the Manin-Mumford conjecture i.e. Raynaud's theorem. We also prove the Tate-Voloch conjecture for a…

A 2018 paper by A. Levine and T. Lidman outlines a proof of the following interesting result in topology of manifolds: there is a compact smooth 4-manifold $W$ with boundary such that $W$ is homotopy equivalent to $S^2$ but there does not…

Using tools and results from geometric measure theory, we give a simple new proof of the main result (Theorem 1.3) in K. Kondo and M. Tanaka, Approximation of Lipschitz Maps via Immersions and Differentiable Exotic Sphere Theorems,…

In this expository note, we explain the so-called Van den Bergh functor, which enables the formalization of the Kontsevich-Rosenberg principle, whereby a structure on an associative algebra has geometric meaning if it induces standard…

We prove a new dyadic representation theorem with applications to the $T(1)$ and $A_2$ theorems. In particular, we obtain the non-homogeneous $T(1)$ theorem under weaker kernel regularity than the earlier approaches.

We study two problems concerning the Stiefel manifolds $V_{n,2}$ and their products with spheres. First, we address a rigidity problem: we determine, for most values of~$n$, all self-maps of $V_{n,2}$ that are homotopic to an almost…

Let \lambda be a partition of a positive integer n. Let C be a symmetric rigid tensor category over a field k of characteristic 0 or char(k)>n, and let V be an object of C. In our main result (Theorem 4.3) we introduce a finite set of…

Let X be an irreducible smooth complex projective curve of genus g>2, and let x be a fixed point. A framed bundle is a pair (E,\phi), where E is a vector bundle over X, of rank r and degree d, and \phi:E_x\to C^r is a non-zero homomorphism.…

We prove a variant of the so-called bilinear embedding theorem for operators in divergence form with complex coefficients and with nonnegative locally integrable potentials, subject to mixed boundary conditions, and acting on arbitrary open…

We show that a pseudo-holomorphic embedding of an almost-complex $2n$-manifold into almost-complex $(2n + 2)$-Euclidean space exists if and only if there is a CR regular embedding of the $2n$-manifold into complex $(n + 1)$-space. We remark…

We introduce a notion of cross-flips: local moves that transform a balanced (i.e., properly $(d+1)$-colored) triangulation of a combinatorial $d$-manifold into another balanced triangulation. These moves form a natural analog of bistellar…

A seminal theorem of Tverberg states that any set of $T(r,d)=(r-1)(d+1)+1$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ can be partitioned into $r$ subsets whose convex hulls have non-empty $r$-fold intersection. Almost any collection of fewer points in…

We prove several finiteness theorems for the normal bundles to souls in nonnegatively curved manifolds. More generally, we obtain finiteness results for open Riemannian manifolds whose topology is concentrated on compact domains of…

A function from configuration space to moduli space of surface may induce a homomorphism between their fundamental groups which are braid groups and mapping class groups of surface, respectively. This map $\phi: B_k \rightarrow…

There is a belief that the Ehrenfest theorem holds true universally. We demonstrate that for a classically nonrelativistic particle constrained on an $N-1$ ($N\geq 2$) curved hypersurface embedded in $N$ flat space, the theorem breaks down.

We present a proof of the fact that a closed orientable 4-manifold is parallelizable if and only if its second Stiefel-Whitney class, first Pontryagin class and Euler characteristics vanish. This follows from a stronger result due to Dold…

We present a proof of the sufficiency of Rado's condition for the partition regularity of linear Diophantine equations that avoids any use of van der Waerden's theorem. The proof is based on fundamental properties that are common knowledge…

We establish a homotopy-theoretic description of the homology of stable moduli spaces of $(2n+1)$-dimensional manifold triads $(N, \partial^h N, \partial^v N)$ with fixed $\partial^v N$, whenever $n \geq 3$ and $(N, \partial^h N)$ is…

In this note we describe a family of arguments that link the homotopy-type of a) the diffeomorphism group of the disc $D^n$, b) the space of co-dimension one embedded spheres in a sphere and c) the homotopy-type of the space of co-dimension…

For an open set in a compact smooth oriented Riemannian n-manifold and a positive finite Borel measure with support contained in the closure of the open set, we define an associated Krein-Feller operator on k-forms by assuming the Poincare…
