We define and study a notion of minimal exponent for a locally complete intersection subscheme $Z$ of a smooth complex algebraic variety $X$, extending the invariant defined by Saito in the case of hypersurfaces. Our definition is in terms…

In this paper we use the deformation to the normal cone and the corresponding Verdier-Saito specialization to define and study (spectral) Hirzebruch-Milnor type homology characteristic classes for local complete intersections. Our main…

We prove that the minimal exponent for local complete intersections satisfies an Inversion-of-Adjunction property. As a result, we also obtain the Inversion of Adjunction for higher Du Bois and higher rational singularities for local…

We show that k-rational singularities of local complete intersections are k-Du Bois. For hypersurfaces, we characterize k-rationality in terms of the minimal exponent. We also establish some local vanishing results for k-rational and k-Du…

We show that if $Z$ is a local complete intersection subvariety of a smooth complex variety $X$, of pure codimension $r$, then $Z$ has $k$-rational singularities if and only if $\widetilde{\alpha}(Z)>k+r$, where $\widetilde{\alpha}(Z)$ is…

We consider the Bernstein--Sato polynomial of a locally quasi-homogeneous polynomial $f \in R = \mathbb{C}[x_{1}, x_{2}, x_{3}]$. We construct, in the analytic category, a complex of $\mathscr{D}_{X}[s]$-modules that can be used to compute…

We compute the minimal exponent of the affine cone over a complete intersection of smooth projective hypersurfaces intersecting transversely. The upper bound for the minimal exponent is proved, more generally, in the weighted homogeneous…

In this paper, we first apply an integral identity on Ricci solitons to prove that closed locally conformally flat gradient Ricci solitons are of constant sectional curvature. We then generalize this integral identity to complete noncompact…

First we construct minimal hypersurfaces $M\subset\mathbf{R}^{n+1}$ in a neighborhood of the origin, with an isolated singularity but cylindrical tangent cone $C\times \mathbf{R}$, for any strictly minimizing strictly stable cone $C$ in…

We prove a local minimizing property for strictly stable free-boundary minimal hypersurfaces in the relative current setting. Let $\Sigma^n$ be a compact, two-sided, properly embedded free-boundary minimal hypersurface in a compact…

We characterize by pattern avoidance the Schubert varieties for GL_n which are local complete intersections (lci). For those Schubert varieties which are local complete intersections, we give an explicit minimal set of equations cutting out…

The topology of smooth quasi-projective complex varieties is very restrictive. One aspect of this statement is the fact that natural strata of local systems, called cohomology support loci, have a rigid structure: they consist of…

We study the Du Bois complex $\underline{\Omega}_Z^\bullet$ of a hypersurface $Z$ in a smooth complex algebraic variety in terms its minimal exponent $\widetilde{\alpha}(Z)$. The latter is an invariant of singularities, defined as the…

The local spectrum of a vertex set in a graph has been proven to be very useful to study some of its metric properties. It also has applications in the area of pseudo-distance-regularity around a set and can be used to obtain quasi-spectral…

We study the properties of the set of marginal distributions of infinite translation-invariant systems in the 2D square lattice. In cases where the local variables can only take a small number $d$ of possible values, we completely solve the…

Locally stable minimal hypersurface could have singularities in dimension $\geq 7$ in general, locally modeled on stable and area-minimizing cones in the Euclidean spaces. In this paper, we present different aspects of how these…

Let $L\subset \mathbb{Z}^n$ be a lattice and $I_L=\langle x^{\bf u}-x^{\bf v}:\ {\bf u}-{\bf v}\in L\rangle$ be the corresponding lattice ideal in $\Bbbk[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$, where $\Bbbk$ is a field. In this paper we describe minimal…

We derive new Hanson-Wright-type inequalities tailored to the quadratic forms of random vectors with sparse independent components. Specifically, we consider cases where the components of the random vector are sparse $\alpha$-subexponential…

Hardt-Simon proved that every area-minimizing hypercone $\mathbf{C}$ having only an isolated singularity fits into a foliation of $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ by smooth, area-minimizing hypersurfaces asymptotic to $\mathbf{C}$. In this paper we prove…

We explicitly characterize when the Milnor number at the origin of a polynomial or power series (over an algebraically closed field k of arbitrary characteristic) is the minimum of all polynomials with the same Newton diagram, which…
