The dual complex of a singularity is defined, up-to homotopy, using resolutions of singularities. In many cases, for instance for isolated singularities, we identify and study a "minimal" representative of the homotopy class that is well…

The dual complex associated to a resolution of singularities generalizes the notion of a resolution graph of a surface singularity to any dimension. We show that homotopy type of the dual complex is an invariant of an isolated singularity.

We establish an analogue of Pontryagin duality for modules over compact discrete valuation rings $R$. Namely, we define the dual of a topological $R$ module to be its continuous $R$-module homomorphisms into $K/R$, the quotient module of…

We prove Koszulity of certain linear path categories obtained from connected graphs with some infinite directed walk. These categories can be viewed as locally quadratic dual to preprojective algebras.

Let $D$ be a two-dimensional regular local ring. We prove there is a one-to-one correspondence between closed connected sets in the space of valuation overrings of $D$ that dominate $D$ and the integrally closed local overrings of $D$ that…

We classify compact manifolds of dimension three equipped with a path structure and a fixed contact form (which we refer to as a strict path structure) under the hypothesis that their automorphism group is non-compact. We use a Cartan…

A complete classification of unimodular valuations on the set of lattice polygons with values in the spaces of polynomials and formal power series, respectively, is established. The valuations are classified in terms of their behaviour with…

We describe the valuations following infinitely near singular points of a (singular) holomorphic foliation in the complex plane. They appear to be those satisfying a generalization of L'Hopital's rule. With them, we characterize dicritical…

We prove a certain duality relation for orthogonal polynomials defined on a finite set. The result is used in a direct proof of the equivalence of two different ways of computing the correlation functions of a discrete orthogonal polynomial…

We treat Koll\'ar's injectivity theorem from the analytic (or differential geometric) viewpoint. More precisely, we give a curvature condition which implies Koll\'ar type cohomology injectivity theorems. Our main theorem is formulated for a…

We prove that the Krull dimension of the ring of holomorphic functions of a connected complex manifold is at least continuum if it is positive.

We prove, using a theorem of Northcott, that if a number field K with s real embeddings and 2t complex ones has a group of units U such that all elements in U have all its complex conjugates of same absolute value, then one necessarily has…

All SL($n$) contravariant vector valuations on polytopes in $\mathbb R^n$ are completely classified without any additional assumptions. The facet vector is defined. It turns out to be the unique such valuation for $n\geq3$. In dimension…

Let A be a noetherian local commutative ring and let M be a suitable complex of A-modules. This paper proves that M is a dualizing complex for A if and only if the trivial extension A \ltimes M is a Gorenstein Differential Graded Algebra.…

We characterize the finite codimension sub-K-algebras of K[[t]] as the solutions of a computable finite family of higher differential operators. For this end, we establish a duality between such a sub-algebras and the finite codimension…

We introduce the notion of doubling and r-tupling for simplicial complexes, a notion reminiscent to that of matching complexes in graph theory. We prove a connectivity result for such complexes and relate r-tupling to stabilizing r times…

Let O\_K be a complete discrete valuation ring. Denote by K its fractions field and by k its residue field. Assume that k is of characteristic p>0 and perfect. Breuil gives an anti-equivalence between the category of finite flat O\_K-group…

In this paper, we report a "new" continuity path which links the constant scalar curvature equation to a second order elliptic equation. This is largely an expository article where we describes various aspects of geometry and analysis…

We establish some properties of \'etoiles and associated valuations over complex analytic spaces, showing that Abhyankar's inequality holds. We give some examples of pathological behavior of these valuations. We prove a regularization…

We study the Euler characteristic of the real Milnor fibres of a real analytic map, using a relation between complex monodromy and complex conjugation. We deduce the result of Coste and Kurdyka that the Euler characteristic of the link of…
