Given $d\in \mathbb{N}$, $g\in \mathbb{N} \cup\{0\}$, and an integral vector $\kappa=(k_1,\dots,k_n)$ such that $k_i>-d$ and $k_1+\dots+k_n=d(2g-2)$, let $\Omega^d\mathcal{M}_{g,n}(\kappa)$ denote the moduli space of meromorphic…

We show that the conjectural cusped complex hyperbolic 2-orbifolds of minimal volume are the two smallest arithmetic complex hyperbolic 2-orbifolds. We then show that every arithmetic cusped complex hyperbolic 2-manifold of minimal volume…

We introduce an adelic Cartier divisor over a trivially valued field and discuss the bigness of it. For bigness, we give the integral representation of the arithmetic volume and prove the existence of limit of it. Moreover, we show that the…

We use Papasoglu's method of area-minimizing separating sets to give an alternative proof, and explicit constants, for the following theorem of Guth and Braun--Sauer: If $M$ is a closed, oriented, $n$-dimensional manifold, with a Riemannian…

Let S, T be surfaces in P3. Suppose that S intersect T is set-theoretically a smooth curve C of degree d and genus g. Suppose that S and T have no common singular points. Then if C is not a complete intersection, then deg(S), deg(T) < 2d^4.…

We define a Bowen-Series like map for every geometric presentation of a co-compact surface group and we prove that the volume entropy of the presentation is the topological entropy of this particular (circle) map. Finally we find the…

Smooth complex surfaces polarized with an ample and globally generated line bundle of degree three and four, such that the adjoint bundle is not globally generated, are considered. Scrolls of a vector bundle over a smooth curve are shown to…

Let $M^d$ be the spherical, Euclidean, or hyperbolic space of dimension $d\ge n+1$. Given any degenerate $(n+1)$-simplex $\mathbf{A}$ in $M^d$ with non-degenerate $n$-faces $F_i$, there is a natural partition of the set of $n$-faces into…

Given an algebraic variety X defined over an algebraically closed field, we study the space RZ(X,x) consisting of all the valuations of the function field of X which are centered in a closed point x of X. We concentrate on its homeomorphism…

This paper studies irregularity-type invariants of special C-pairs, or "geometric orbifolds" in the sense of Campana. Under mild assumptions on the singularities, we show that the augmented irregularity of a C-pair (X,D) is bounded by its…

We study how the number $c(X)$ of components of a graph $X$ can be expressed through the number and properties of the components of a quotient graph $X/\sim.$ We partially rely on classic qualifications of graph homomorphisms such as…

We show that, in dimension at least $4$, the set of locally finite simplicial volumes of oriented connected open manifolds is $[0, \infty]$. Moreover, we consider the case of tame open manifolds and some low-dimensional examples.

Lebesgue measurable subsets A and B of parallel or identical k-dimensional affine subspaces of Euclidean n-space E^n satisfy The Product Formula for Volume: Vol_k(A)Vol_k(B) = \sum_{J \in S(n,k)} Vol_k({\pi}_J(A))Vol_k({\pi}_J(B)). Here…

In connection with an unsolved problem of Bang (1951) we give a lower bound for the sum of the base volumes of cylinders covering a d-dimensional convex body in terms of the relevant basic measures of the given convex body. As an…

We develop a theory of \emph{reduced} Gromov-Witten and stable pair invariants of surfaces and their canonical bundles. We show that classical Severi degrees are special cases of these invariants. This proves a special case of the MNOP…

This is a survey of topological properties of open, complete nonpositively curved manifolds which may have infinite volume. Topics include topology of ends, restrictions on the fundamental group, as well as a review of known examples.

To every closed subset $X$ of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ we associate a natural group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms $Ham(X,\omega)$. We equip this group with a semi-norm $\Vert\cdot\Vert^{X,\omega}$, generalizing the Hofer norm. We…

In this paper, we give a formula for the area of the triangle formed by the vertices that live on a given polynomial, and we generalize this formula to the volumes of $n$-simplices with vertices on a polynomial space curve. To prove these…

We study the space of non-simple polarised abelian surfaces. Specifically, we describe for which pairs $(m,n)$ the locus of polarised abelian surfaces of type $(1,d)$ that contain two complementary elliptic curve of exponents $m,n$, denoted…
