We prove analogues of several well-known results concerning rational morphisms between quadrics for the class of so-called quasilinear $p$-hypersurfaces. These hypersurfaces are nowhere smooth over the base field, so many of the geometric…

Given an injective amalgam at the level of fundamental groups and a specific 3-manifold, is there a corresponding geometric-topological decomposition of a given 4-manifold, in a stable sense? We find an algebraic-topological splitting…

We use the theory of resultants of polynomials to study the stability of an arbitrary polynomial over a finite field, that is, the property of having all its iterates irreducible. This result partially generalises the quadratic polynomial…

The topology of amoebas of complex algebraic hypersurfaces is deeply connected to the combinatorics of the Newton polytope and the convex geometry of the Ronkin function. A long-standing conjecture of Passare and Rullgard asserts that the…

We survey the problem of deciding the stability or stabilizability of uncertain linear systems whose region of uncertainty is a polytope. This natural setting has applications in many fields of applied science, from Control Theory to…

We show that projective K3 surfaces with odd Picard rank contain infinitely many rational curves. Our proof extends the Bogomolov-Hassett-Tschinkel approach, i.e., uses moduli spaces of stable maps and reduction to positive characteristic.

This note proves the existence of universal rational parametrizations. The description involves homogeneous coordinates on a toric variety coming from a lattice polytope. We first describe how smooth toric varieties lead to universal…

We show that the quadratic interaction of fundamental and second harmonics in a bulk dispersive medium, combined with self-defocusing cubic nonlinearity, give rise to completely localized spatiotemporal solitons (vortex tori) with vorticity…

We discuss the stabilization of symmetric products Sym^n(X) of a smooth projective variety X in the Grothendieck ring of varieties. For smooth projective surfaces X with non-zero h^0(X, \omega_X), these products do not stabilize; we…

We give a conjectural description for the cone of effective divisors of the Grothendieck-Knudsen moduli space of stable rational curves with n marked points. Namely, we introduce new combinatorial structures called hypertrees and show they…

The initial problem for the Navier-Stokes type equations over ${\mathbb R}^n \times [0,T]$, $n\geq 2$, with a positive time $T$ in the spatially periodic setting is considered. First, we prove that the problem induces an open injective…

The aim of this paper is to discuss a combinatorial characterisation of stability for toric vector bundles (or equivariant reflexive sheaves) in the terms of their parliaments of polytopes, a generalization of moment polytopes for toric…

The primary goal of this paper is to find a homotopy theoretic approximation to moduli spaces of holomorphic maps Riemann surfaces into complex projective space. There is a similar treatment of a partial compactification of these moduli…

Every $n th$ order monic polynomial corresponds $n$-dimensional vector. If the given polynomial is stable that is all its roots lie in the open left half plane it is said to be Hurwitz polynomial and the corresponding vector is called…

First, the solution uniqueness and existence of a stationary anisotropic (linear) Stokes system with constant viscosity coefficients in a compressible framework on $n$-dimensional flat torus are analysed in a range of periodic Sobolev…

This paper establishes the conjecture that a non-singular projective hypersurface of dimension $r$, which is not equal to a linear space, contains $O(B^{r+\epsilon})$ rational points of height at most $B$, for any choice of $\epsilon>0$.…

We provide detailed local descriptions of stable polynomials in terms of their homogeneous decompositions, Puiseux expansions, and transfer function realizations. We use this theory to first prove that bounded rational functions on the…

With every family of finitely many subsets of a finite-dimensional vector space over the Galois-field with two elements we associate a cyclic transversal polytope. It turns out that those polytopes generalize several well-known polytopes…

We show rational homological stability for the homotopy automorphisms and block diffeomorphims of iterated connected sums of products of spheres. The spheres can have different dimension, but need to satisfy a certain connectivity…

We continue previous works by various authors and study the birational geometry of moduli spaces of stable rank-two vector bundles on surfaces with Kodaira dimension $-\infty$. To this end, we express vector bundles as natural extensions,…
