For a general cubic fourfold $X \subset \mathbb{P}^5$, we compute the Hodge numbers of the locus $S \subset F$ of lines of second type. We also give an upper bound of 6 for the degree of irrationality of the Fano scheme of lines of any…
In this paper, we will give some remarks on links between the spectral gap of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator on the Riemannian path space with lower and upper bounds of the Ricci curvature on the base manifold; this work was motivated by a…
In this paper we develop a version of spectral theory for bounded linear operators on topological vector spaces. We show that the Gelfand formula for spectral radius and Neumann series can still be naturally interpreted for operators on…
We obtain an explicit formula for the best lower bound for the higher topological complexity, TC_k(P^n), of real projective space implied by mod 2 cohomology.
On a fairly general class of Riemannian manifolds M, we prove lower estimates in terms of the Ricci curvature for the spectral bound (when M has infinite volume) and for the spectral gap (when M has finite volume) for the Laplace-Beltrami…
In this paper, we study the explicit geometry of threefolds, in particular, Fano varieties. We find an explicitly computable positive integer $N$, such that all but a bounded family of Fano threefolds have $N$-complements. This result has…
In this short note we determine the greatest lower bounds on Ricci curvature for all Fano $T$-manifolds of complexity one, generalizing the result of Chi Li. Our method of proof is based on the work of Datar and Sz\'ekelyhidi, using the…
This paper generalizes the first author's preceding works concerning admissible functions on certain Fano manifolds. Here, we study a larger class of functions which can be less symmetric than the ones studied before. When the sup of these…
We apply polynomial techniques (linear programming) to obtain lower and upper bounds on the covering radius of spherical designs as function of their dimension, strength, and cardinality. In terms of inner products we improve the lower…
A generalized Krein-Rutman theorem for a strongly positive bounded linear operator whose spectral radius is larger than essential spectral radius is established: the spectral radius of the operator is an algebraically simple eigenvalue with…
For $0\leq \alpha < 1$, the $\mathcal{A}_{\alpha}$-spectral radius of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $G$ is defined to be the spectral radius of the tensor $\mathcal{A}_{\alpha}(G):=\alpha \mathcal{D}(G)+(1-\alpha) \mathcal{A}(G)$, where…
The main result of this paper is a sharp upper bound on the first positive eigenvalue of Dirac operators in two dimensional simply connected $C^3$-domains with infinite mass boundary conditions. This bound is given in terms of a conformal…
We formulate a conjecture on the number of integral points of bounded height on log Fano varieties in analogy with Manin's conjecture on the number of rational points of bounded height on Fano varieties. We also give a prediction for the…
We obtain several sharp lower and upper bounds for the Euclidean operator radius of a pair of bounded linear operators defined on a complex Hilbert space. As applications of these bounds we deduce a chain of new bounds for the classical…
We discuss how the theory of quantum cohomology may be generalized to ``gravitational quantum cohomology'' by studying topological sigma models coupled to two-dimensional gravity. We first consider sigma models defined on a general Fano…
We study the spaces of rational curves on Fano threefolds with Gorenstein terminal singularities. We generalize the results regarding Geometric Manin's Conjecture for smooth Fano threefolds, including the classification of subvarieties with…
Consider the Fano manifold $X$ formed by blowing up $\mathbb{P}^n$ along its linear subspace $\mathbb{P}^r$, we check the conifold conditions [3, 1] for its mirror Laurent polynomial $f$, which can imply that $X$ satisfies both Conjecture…
This article is a contribution to the spectral theory of so-called eventually positive operators, i.e.\ operators $T$ which may not be positive but whose powers $T^n$ become positive for large enough $n$. While the spectral theory of such…
Let X be a complex Fano manifold of dimension n. Let s(X) be the sum of l(R)-1 for all the extremal rays of X, the edges of the cone NE(X) of curves of X, where l(R) denotes the minimum of (-K_X \cdot C) for all rational curves C whose…
In this short note, based on the work of Wang-Zhu, we determine the greatest lower bounds on Ricci curvature for all toric Fano manifolds.
