We introduce a notion of stable spherical variety which includes the spherical varieties under a reductive group $G$ and their flat equivariant degenerations. Given any projective space $\bP$ where $G$ acts linearly, we construct a moduli…

In a plane polygon $P$ with straight sides, we prove analytic regularity of the Leray-Hopf solution of the stationary, viscous, and incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. We assume small data, analytic volume force and no-slip boundary…

We construct the first examples of rationally convex surfaces in the complex plane with hyperbolic complex tangencies. In fact, we give two very different types of rationally convex surfaces: those that admit analytic fillings by…

Given a polynomial $p$ with no zeros in the polydisk, or equivalently the poly-upper half-plane, we study the problem of determining the ideal of polynomials $q$ with the property that the rational function $q/p$ is bounded near a boundary…

We investigate birational properties of hypersurfaces of degree $6$ in the weighted projective space $\mathbf{P}(1,1,2,2,3)$. In particular, we prove that any such quasi-smooth hypersurface is not rational.

Let X be a non-singular projective hypersurface of degree 4, which is defined over the rational numbers. Assume that X has dimension 39 or more, and that X contains a real point and p-adic points for every prime p. Then X is shown to…

We develop foundational aspects of stability theory in affine logic. On the one hand, we prove appropriate affine versions of many classical results, including definability of types, existence of non-forking extensions, and other…

The paper presents methods of eigenvalue localisation of regular matrix polynomials, in particular, stability of matrix polynomials is investigated. For this aim a stronger notion of hyperstability is introduced and widely discussed. Matrix…

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…

In this paper we study the space of morphisms from a complex projective space to a compact smooth toric variety X. It is shown that the first author's stability theorem for the spaces of rational maps from CP^m to CP^n extends to the spaces…

A finitely generated quadratic module or preordering in the real polynomial ring is called stable, if it admits a certain degree bound on the sums of squares in the representation of polynomials. Stability, first defined explicitly by…

We believe three ingredients are needed for further progress in persistence and its use: invariants not relying on decomposition theorems to go beyond 1-dimension, outcomes suitable for statistical analysis and a setup adopted for…

We describe new methods for deciding the stability of switching systems. The methods build on two ideas previously appeared in the literature: the polytope norm iterative construction, and the lifting procedure. Moreover, the combination of…

We study the locus of smooth hypersurfaces inside the Hilbert scheme of a smooth projective complex variety. In the spirit of scanning, we construct a map to a continuous section space of a projective bundle, and show that it induces an…

We study polynomials with no zeros on the unit ball in complex Euclidean space with a view toward characterizing when a rational function is bounded on the ball. We give a complete local description of such polynomials in two variables near…

In this paper we study the rigidity problem for sub-static systems with possibly non-empty boundary. First, we get local and global splitting theorems by assuming the existence of suitable compact minimal hypersurfaces, complementing recent…

We present a dichotomy for surface homeomorphisms in the isotopy class of the identity. We show that, in the absence of a degenerate fixed point set, either there exists a uniform bound on the diameter of orbits of non-wandering points for…

The aim of this paper is to study foliations that remain invariant by parallel transports along the integral curves of vector fields of another foliations. According to this idea, we define a new concept of stability between foliations. A…

Let k be an uncountable field of characteristic different from two. We show that a very general hypersurface of dimension N>2 and degree at least $\log_2N +2$ is not stably rational over the algebraic closure of k.

Let $X_4\subset\mathbb{P}^{n+1}$ be a quartic hypersurface of dimension $n\geq 4$ over an infinite field $k$. We show that if either $X_4$ contains a linear subspace $\Lambda$ of dimension $h\geq \max\{2,\dim(\Lambda\cap…
