We devise a fairly general sufficient condition ensuring that the endomorphism monoid of a countably infinite ultrahomogeneous structure (i.e. a Fra\"{\i}ss\'{e} limit) embeds all countable semigroups. This approach provides us not only…
We combine several folklore observations to provide a working framework for iterating constructions which contradict the axiom of choice. We use this to define a model in which any kind of structural failure must fail with a proper class of…
Given a projective morphism of compact, complex, algebraic varieties and a relatively ample line bundle on the domain we prove that a suitable choice, dictated by the line bundle, of the decomposition isomorphism of the Decomposition…
We prove an analogue for Stokes torsors of Deligne's skeleton conjecture and deduce from it the representability of the functor of relative Stokes torsors by an affine scheme of finite type over C. This provides, in characteristic 0, a…
Consider the holomorphic bundle with connection on $\mathbb P^1-\{0,1,\infty\}$ corresponding to the regular hypergeometric differential operator \[ \prod_{j=1}^h(D-\alpha_j)-z\prod_{j=1}^h(D-\beta_j), \qquad D=z\frac{d}{dz}. \] If the…
In this note we compare the a-invariant of a homogeneous algebra B to the a-invariant of a subalgebra A. In particular we show that if $A \subset B$ is a finite homogeneous inclusion of standard graded domains over an algebraically closed…
The paper presents a counterexample to the Hodge conjecture.
It is a long-standing problem in Hodge theory to generalize the Satake--Baily--Borel (SBB) compactification of a locally Hermitian symmetric space to arbitrary period maps. A proper topological SBB-type completion has been constructed, and…
In the previous paper, we defined a new category which categorifies the Hecke algebra. This is a generalization of the theory of Soergel bimodules. To prove theorems, the existences of certain homomorphisms between Bott-Samelson bimodules…
Let $f: X \rightarrow S$ be a family of non singular projective varieties parametrized by a complex algebraic variety $S$. Fix $s \in S$, an integer $p$, and a class $h \in {\rm H}^{2p}(X_s,\Z)$ of Hodge type $(p,p)$. We show that the…
We derive a new bound on the dimension of images of period maps of global pure polarized integral variations of Hodge structures with generic Hodge datum of level at least 3. When the generic Mumford-Tate domain of the variation is a period…
We prove an effective vanishing theorem for direct images of log pluricanonical bundles of projective semi-log canonical pairs. As an application, we obtain a semipositivity theorem for direct images of relative log pluricanonical bundles…
This article re-examines Lawvere's abstract, category-theoretic proof of the fixed-point theorem whose contrapositive is a `universal' diagonal argument. The main result is that the necessary axioms for both the fixed-point theorem and the…
The theorem of factorisation forests shows the existence of nested factorisations -- a la Ramsey -- for finite words. This theorem has important applications in semigroup theory, and beyond. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate the…
We prove some general theorems for preserving Dependent Choice when taking symmetric extensions, some of which are unwritten folklore results. We apply these to various constructions to obtain various simple consistency proofs.
Many recursive functions can be defined elegantly as the unique homomorphisms, between two algebras, two coalgebras, or one each, that are induced by some universal property of a distinguished structure. Besides the well-known applications…
We study a notion of potential isomorphism, where two structures are said to be potentially isomorphic if they are isomorphic in some generic extension that preserves stationary sets and does not add new sets of cardinality less than the…
We generalize the fundamental structure Theorem on Hopf (bi)-modules by Larson and Sweedler to quasi-Hopf algebras H. If H is finite dimensional this proves the existence and uniqueness (up to scalar multiples) of integrals in H. Among…
A relational structure is homomorphism-homogeneous if every homomorphism between finite substructures extends to an endomorphism of the structure. This notion was introduced recently by Cameron and Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il. In this paper we…
We introduce the $\omega$-Vaught's conjecture, a strengthening of the infinitary Vaught's conjecture. We believe that if one were to prove the infinitary Vaught's conjecture in a structural way without using techniques from higher recursion…
