This expository article is an expanded version of talks given at the "Current Developments in Mathematics, 2002" conference. It gives an introduction to the (generalized) conjecture of Rapoport and Goresky-MacPherson which identifies the…
We generalize some properties related to Hilbert series and Lefschetz properties of Milnor algebras of projective hypersurfaces with isolated singularities to the more general case of an almost complete intersection ideal $J$ of dimension…
We show that local deformations, near closed subsets, of solutions to open partial differential relations can be extended to global deformations, provided all but the highest derivatives stay constant along the subset. The applicability of…
In this paper, we prove a new gradient estimate for minimal graphs defined on domains of a complete manifold with Ricci curvature bounded from below. In particular, we show that positive, entire minimal graphs on manifolds with non-negative…
We study the interplay between the recently defined concept of minimum homotopy area and the classical topic of self-overlapping curves. The latter are plane curves which are the image of the boundary of an immersed disk. Our first…
We prove a new kind of estimate that holds on any manifold with lower Ricci bounds. It relates the geometry of two small balls with the same radius, potentially far apart, but centered in the interior of a common minimizing geodesic. It…
The base space of a semiuniversal unfolding of a hypersurface singularity carries a rich geometry. By work of K. Saito and M. Saito is can be equipped with the structure of a Frobenius manifold. By work of Cecotti and Vafa it can be…
We produce an explicit parameterization of well-rounded sublattices of the hexagonal lattice in the plane, splitting them into similarity classes. We use this parameterization to study the number, the greatest minimal norm, and the highest…
We establish a close connection between intersection multiplicities of special cycles on arithmetic models of the Shimura variety for GU(1,2) and Fourier coefficients of derivatives of certain incoherent Eisenstein series, confirming a…
Enhanced ind-sheaves provide a suitable framework for the irregular Riemann-Hilbert correspondence. In this paper, we show how Sato's specialization and microlocalization functors have a natural enhancement, and discuss some of their…
We prove that in every compact space of Delone sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$ which is minimal with respect to the action by translations, either all Delone sets are uniformly spread, or continuously many distinct bounded displacement equivalence…
Tautological systems developed in [6],[7] are Picard-Fuchs type systems to study period integrals of complete intersections in Fano varieties. We generalize tautological systems to local complete intersections, which are zero loci of global…
A conjecture related to the Bartnik quasilocal mass, is that the infimum of the ADM energy, over an appropriate space of extensions to a compact 3-manifold with boundary, is realised by a static metric. It was shown by Corvino [Comm. Math.…
In this paper, we prove that any compact 2-sided smooth stable minimal hypersurface in gradient Ricci soliton $(M^{n},g,f)$ with scalar curvature $R\geq(n-1)\lambda$ must have vanished second fundamental form and vanished normal Ricci…
In recent work, the topology of frame spaces $\mathcal{F}_{(X,\mu),n}$ has been studied via Stiefel manifolds, revealing in particular a connectedness property for intersections of their translates when $\operatorname{span}(\{a_j\}_{j \in…
Kleinian singularities are quotients of $\mathbb{C}^2$ by finite subgroups of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C})$. They are in bijection with the simply-laced Dynkin diagrams via the McKay correspondence. Anti-Poisson involutions and their fixed…
We show explicitly that the full structure of IIB string theory is needed to remove the non-localities that arise in boundary conformal theories that border hyperbolic spaces on AdS$_5$. Specifically, using the…
We construct local, in spacetime, singular solutions to the Einstein vacuum equations that exhibit Kasner-like behavior in their past boundary. Our result can be viewed as a localization (in space) of the construction in \cite{FL}. We also…
This paper aims to give some examples of diffeomorphic (or homeomorphic) low-dimensional complete intersections, which can be considered as a geometrical realization of classification theorems about complete intersections. A conjecture of…
In this paper we characterize two-dimensional semi-log canonical hypersurfaces in arbitrary characteristic from the viewpoint of the initial term of the defining equation. As an application, we prove a conjecture about a uniform bound of…
