We survey recent work done on the values at integer points of irrational inhomogeneous quadratic forms, namely, inhomogeneous analogues of the famous Oppenheim conjecture. We also prove that the set of such forms in two variables whose set…
We study the homotopy types of certain spaces closely related to the spaces of algebraic (rational) maps from the $m$ dimensional real projective space into the $n$ dimensional complex projective space for $2\leq m\leq 2n$ (we conjecture…
We discuss homogeneity and universality issues in the theory of abstract linear spaces, namely, structures with points and lines satisfying natural axioms, as in Euclidean or projective geometry. We show that the two smallest projective…
We seek to characterize homology classes of Lagrangian projective spaces embedded in irreducible holomorphic-symplectic manifolds, up to the action of the monodromy group. This paper addresses the case of manifolds deformation-equivalent to…
A consequence of the recent work of Ren and Zhu on Gorenstein projective dimensions of modules over Hopf algebras is that if $A$ and $B$ are Hopf algebras with bijective antipodes having equivalent linear tensor categories of comodules and…
Let $K$ be a field and $D$ be a finite-dimensional central division algebra over $K$. We prove a variant of the Nullstellensatz for $2$-sided ideals in the ring of polynomial maps $D^n \to D$. In the case where $D = K$ is commutative, our…
It is proved that the associative differential graded algebra of (polynomial) polyvector fields on a vector space (may be infinite- dimensional) is quasi-isomorphic to the corresponding cohomological Hochschild complex of (polynomial)…
In a recent work, Kai Tang conjectured that any compact Hermitian manifold with non-zero constant mixed curvature must be K\"ahler. He confirmed the conjecture in complex dimension $2$ and for Chern K\"ahler-like manifolds in general…
A topological space is said to be cardinality homogeneous if every nonempty open subset has the same cardinality as the space itself. Let $X$ and $Y$ be cardinality homogeneous metric spaces of the same cardinality. If there exists a…
We give a formula for the parity of the Maslov index of a triple of Lagrangian subspaces of a skew symmetric bilinear form over the real numbers. We define an index two subcategory (the even subcategory) of a 3-dimensional cobordism…
In any infinite dimensional Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ there exist orthogonal projections $Q_1$, $Q_2$ and $Q_3$, such that a sequence $(P_n... P_1(x))$ diverges in norm for some $P_1,P_2,...\in\{Q_1,Q_2,Q_3\}$ and $x\in\mathcal H$.
Let $T^n$ be the real $n$-torus group. We give a new definition of lens spaces and study the diffeomorphic classification of lens spaces. We show that any $3$-dimensional lens space $L(p; q)$ is $T^2$-equivariantly cobordant to zero. We…
We define symmetric designs of dimension $n$ and propriety $d$, providing a unifying generalization of several classes of higher-dimensional symmetric designs previously studied. We focus on the case $n=d=3$, which leads to the following…
We prove that subsets of ${\Bbb R}^d$, $d \ge 4$ of large enough Hausdorff dimensions contain vertices of an equilateral triangle. It is known that additional hypotheses are needed to assure the existence of equilateral triangles in two…
Let $\mathcal{H}_d^{(t)}$ ($t \geq -d$, $t>-3$) be the reproducing kernel Hilbert space on the unit ball $\mathbb{B}_d$ with kernel \[ k(z,w) = \frac{1}{(1-\langle z, w \rangle)^{d+t+1}} . \] We prove that if an ideal $I \triangleleft…
We solve the conjecture by R. Fenn, C. Rourke and B. Sanderson that the rack homology of dihedral quandles satisfies H_3^R(R_p) = Z \oplus Z_p for p odd prime. We also show that H_n^R(R_p) contains Z_p for n>2. Furthermore, we show that the…
We study the integral Hodge conjecture in complex codimension $2$ and $3$ for approximations to the classifying space of groups of type A. In degree two, we prove a conjecture of Ben Antieau, extending his two counterexamples to a general…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety of dimension $n$ over the algebraic closure of a finite field $\mathbb{F}_p$. Assuming the standard conjecture $D$, we prove a weaker form of the Dynamical Degree Comparison conjecture; equivalence of…
We prove that the classes of weakly $1$-dimensional and almost $0$-dimensional spaces are disjoint. The result has applications to hereditarily locally connected spaces, $\mathbb R$-trees, and endpoints of smooth fans.
In the recent articles by Alper, Eastwood and Isaev, it was conjectured that all rational $GL_n({\mathbb C})$-invariant functions of forms of degree $d\ge 3$ on ${\mathbb C}^n$ can be extracted, in a canonical way, from those of forms of…
