We show that if f: X --> Y is a finite, separable morphism of smooth curves defined over a finite field F_q, where q is larger than an explicit constant depending only on the degree of f and the genus of X, then f maps X(F_q) surjectively…

Let R be a semi-local regular domain containing an infinite perfect field k, and let K be the field of fractions of R. Let G be a reductive semi-simple simply connected R-group scheme such that each of its R-indecomposable factors is…

We show that every unramified morphism X->Y has a canonical and universal factorization X->E->Y where the first morphism is a closed embedding and the second is etale (but not separated).

We use a counting argument and surgery theory to show that if $D$ is a sufficiently general algebraic hypersurface in $\Bbb C^n$, then any local diffeomorphism $F:X \to \Bbb C^n$ of simply connected manifolds which is a $d$-sheeted cover…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective connected curve of genus $g\ge 2$ defined over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $G$ be a finite group, $P$ a Sylow $p$-subgroup of $G$ and $N_G(P)$ its normalizer in $G$. We show…

Let $S$ be a base scheme, assumed separated and Noetherian. We define \emph{adequate classes} of morphisms of $S$-schemes by formalizing certain properties of homotopy equivalences of complex algebraic varieties. Other examples of adequate…

We prove that epimorphisms are surjective in certain categories of ordered F-algebras. It then turns out that epimorphisms are also surjective in the category of all (unordered) algebras of type F.

There exists a homomorphism from the affine super Yangian to the completion of the universal enveloping algebra of $\widehat{\mathfrak{gl}}(m|n)$, called the evaluation map. In this paper, we show that this homomorphism is surjective. Via…

We find an explicit geometric description of all coverings of the Hilbert square on a normal, complex, quasi-projective surface with finite fundamental group. We then apply this construction to show that if $\Sigma$ is an irreducible…

Let $E:y^2=(x-e_1)(x-e_2)(x-e_3)$ be a nonconstant elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$, where $e_j\in \mathbb{Z}[t]$. We describe a method for finding a specialization $t\mapsto t_0\in\mathbb{Q}$ such that the specialization homomorphism is…

We show that for a plane imaged by an endoscope the specular isophotes are concentric circles on the scene plane, which appear as nested ellipses in the image. We show that these ellipses can be detected and used to estimate the plane's…

We characterize universally generalizing morphisms which satisfy descent of algebraic cycles integrally as those universally generalizing morphisms which are surjective with generically reduced fibres. In doing so, we introduce a naive…

Some sorts of generalized morphisms are defined from very basic mathematical objects such as sets, functions, and partial functions. A wide range of mathematical notions such as continuous functions between topological spaces, ring…

Let $E$ be a vector bundle over a smooth curve $C$, and $S = \mathbb{P} E$ the associated projective bundle. We describe the inflectional loci of certain projective models $\psi \colon S \dashrightarrow \mathbb{P}^n$ in terms of Quot…

If two schemes are isomorphic, then their $m$-jet schemes are isomorphic for all $m$. In this paper we consider the converse problem. We prove that if an isomorphism of the $m$-jet schemes is induced from a morphism of the base schemes,…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety defined on a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. On $X$ there is a special morphism $Fr_X$, which raises coordinates to exponent $q$: $t\mapsto t^q$. The two main results in this paper are: Result 1: If…

We prove several interpolation results for holomorphic Legendrian curves lying in an odd dimensional complex Euclidean space with the standard contact structure. In particular, we show that an arbitrary countable set of points in…

A central conjecture in inverse Galois theory, proposed by D\`{e}bes and Deschamps, asserts that every finite split embedding problem over an arbitrary field can be regularly solved. We give an unconditional proof of a consequence of this…

We study the map associating the cohomology class of an admissible normal function on the product of punctured disks, and give some sufficient conditions for the surjectivity of the map. We also construct some examples such that the map is…

Let $X$ be a smooth Fano threefold. We show that $X$ admits a non-isomorphic surjective endomorphism if and only if $X$ is either a toric variety or a product of $\mathbb{P}^1$ and a del Pezzo surface; in this case, $X$ is a rational…
