Bernstein problem for affine maximal type equation \begin{equation}\label{e0.1} u^{ij}D_{ij}w=0, \ \ w\equiv[\det D^2u]^{-\theta},\ \ \forall x\in\Omega\subset{\mathbb{R}}^N \end{equation} has been a core problem in affine geometry. A…

In 1993 Stanley showed that if a simplicial complex is acyclic over some field, then its face poset can be decomposed into disjoint rank $1$ boolean intervals whose minimal faces together form a subcomplex. Stanley further conjectured that…

For any affine hypersurface defined by a complete symmetric polynomial in $k\geq 3$ variables of degree $m$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ of $q$ elements, a special case of our theorem says that this hypersurface has at least…

Let $(S,L)$ be a general primitively polarized $K3$ surface of genus $g$. For every $0\leq \delta \leq g$ we consider the Severi variety parametrizing integral curves in $|L|$ with exactly $\delta$ nodes as singularities. We prove that its…

We consider several examples of nonautonomous systems of difference equations coming from semi-classical orthogonal polynomials via recurrence coefficients and ladder operators, with respect to various generalisations of Laguerre and…

For a dominant integral weight $\Lambda$ in a Lie algebra of affine type A and rank $e$, and an interval $I_0$ in the residue set $I$, we define the face for the interval $I_0$ to be the subgraph of the block-reduced crystal $\widehat…

In [2], the authors prove Stillman's conjecture in all characteristics and all degrees by showing that, independent of the algebraically closed field $K$ or the number of variables, $n$ forms of degree at most $d$ in a polynomial ring $R$…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. Fix integers $n$ and $b$ with $n\geq 3$ and $1\leq b\leq n-1.$ Let $T^d_k$ be the moduli space of hypersurfaces $[F]$ in $\mathbb{P}^n_k$ of degree $l$ whose singular locus contains a subscheme of…

Corsten and Frankl conjectured that a simplex is diameter-Ramsey if and only if its circumcenter lies in its convex hull. We disprove this conjecture in every dimension $d\ge 3$. The main tool is a sufficient criterion based on a…

We propose a general, prior-free approach for the uncalibrated non-rigid structure-from-motion problem for modelling and analysis of non-rigid objects such as human faces. The word general refers to an approach that recovers the non-rigid…

For each $d\geq 3$ we construct cube complexes homeomorphic to the $d$-sphere with $n$ vertices in which the number of facets (assuming $d$ constant) is $\Omega(n^{5/4})$. This disproves a conjecture of Kalai's stating that the number of…

We prove that for $d\geq 3$, the 1-skeleton of any $(d-1)$-dimensional doubly Cohen Macaulay (abbreviated 2-CM) complex is generically $d$-rigid. This implies the following two corollaries (by Kalai and Lee respectively): Barnette's lower…

We study $n$-vertex $d$-dimensional polytopes with at most one nonsimplex facet with, say, $d+s$ vertices, called {\it almost simplicial polytopes}. We provide tight lower and upper bound theorems for these polytopes as functions of $d,n$…

In this paper, we prove the following differential analog of the Noether normalization lemma: for every $d$-dimensional differential algebraic variety over differentially closed field of zero characteristic there exists a surjective map…

Consider the moduli space, $\mathcal{M}_{d}$, of degree $d \geq 2$ polynomials over $\mathbb{C}$, with a marked critical point. Given $k \geq 0,\; p$ an odd prime, we show that the set $\Sigma_{k,1,p}$ of conjugacy classes of degree $p$…

The theory of affine processes on the space of positive semidefinite d x d matrices has been established in a joint work with Cuchiero, Filipovi\'c and Teichmann (2011). We confirm the conjecture stated therein that in dimension d greater…

We prove Lusztig's conjectures ${\bf P1}$--${\bf P15}$ for the affine Weyl group of type $\tilde{G}_2$ for all choices of parameters. Our approach to compute Lusztig's $\mathbf{a}$-function is based on the notion of a "balanced system of…

For a fixed $k\in\{1,\dots,d\}$ consider random vectors $X_0,\dots, X_{k}\in\mathbb R^d$ with an arbitrary spherically symmetric joint density function. Let $A$ be any non-singular $d\times d$ matrix. We show that the $k$-dimensional volume…

We prove that r independent homogeneous polynomials of the same degree d become dependent when restricted to any hyperplane if and only if their inverse system parameterizes a variety whose (d-1)-osculating spaces have dimension smaller…

Let X be an irreducible hypersurface in $\mathbb{P}^n$ of degree $d\geq 3$ with only isolated semi-weighted homogeneous singularities, such that $exp(\frac{2\pi i}{k})$ is a zero of the Alexander polynomial. Then we show that the…
