Thom polynomials are universal cohomological obstructions to the appearance of singularities of given types in differentiable maps. As an application, various invariants of immersions have been expressed in terms of singularities of their…

In this article, we generalize some results in Chan-Yuan [Ann. Sc. Norm. Super. Pisa Cl. Sci. (5) 26 (2025), 619--644] to local holomorphic maps between Hermitian manifolds preserving $(p,p)$-forms. In particular, we obtain further rigidity…

On a projective variety defined over a global field, any Brauer--Manin obstruction to the existence of rational points is captured by a finite subgroup of the Brauer group. We show that this subgroup can require arbitrarily many generators.

We provide some obstructions to the prescribed Q-curvature problem for the complete conformal metrics on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with finite total Q-curvature. One of them is a Bonnet-Mayer type theorem with respect to Q-curvature. Others are…

Distortions are ubiquitous in nature. Under perturbations such as stresses, fields, or other changes, a physical system reconfigures by following a path from one state to another; this path, often a collection of atomic trajectories,…

Using the notion of existentially closed structures, we obtain embedding theorems for groups and Lie algebras. We also prove the existence of some groups and Lie algebras with prescribed properties.

We show that if the complexity difference function p(n+1)-p(n) of a infinite minimal shift is bounded, then the the automorphism group of the one-sided shift is finite, and the automorphism group of the corresponding two-sided shift "modulo…

The categories with noninvertible morphisms are studied analogously to the semisupermanifolds with noninvertible transition functions. The concepts of regular n-cycles, obstruction and the regularization procedure are introduced and…

We study closed, connected, spin 4-manifolds up to stabilisation by connected sums with copies of $S^2 \times S^2$. For a fixed fundamental group, there are primary, secondary and tertiary obstructions, which together with the signature…

An obstruction theory for representing homotopy classes of surfaces in 4-manifolds by immersions with pairwise disjoint images is developed, using the theory of non-repeating Whitney towers. The accompanying higher-order intersection…

We prove that algebraic isomorphisms between limit algebras are automatically continuous, and consider consequences of this result. In particular, we give partial solutions to a conjecture of Power [Limit Algebras, Longman, 1992, Notes to…

Let $\phi:G\rightarrow G$ be an endomorphism of a finitely generated residually finite group. R.~Hirshon asked if there exists~$n$ such that the restriction of $\phi$ to $\phi^n(G)$ is injective. We give an example to show that this is not…
