In this paper, we initiate our investigation of log canonical models for the moduli space of curves with the boundary divisor $\a \d$ as we decrease $\a$ from 1 to 0. We prove that for the first critical value $\a = 9/11$, the log canonical…
We consider a simple model for multidimensional cone-wise linear dynamics around cusp-like equilibria. We assume that the local linear evolution is either $\mathbf{v}^\prime=\mathbb{A}\mathbf{v}$ or $\mathbb{B}\mathbf{v}$ (with…
We establish a criterion for determining when a smooth Deligne-Mumford stack is a weighted blow-up. More precisely, given a smooth Deligne-Mumford stack $\mathcal{X}$ and a Cartier divisor $\mathcal{E} \subset \mathcal{X}$ such that (1)…
We prove that, on a smooth, connected variety in characteristic zero admitting a rational point, local systems of geometric origin are stable under extension in the category of all local systems. As a consequence of this, we obtain a (Nori)…
Suppose ${\cal L}$ is a lamination of a Riemannian manifold by hypersurfaces with the same constant mean curvature. We prove that every limit leaf of ${\cal L}$ is stable for the Jacobi operator. A simple but important consequence of this…
The classical Beauville-Bogomolov Decomposition Theorem asserts that any compact K\"ahler manifold with numerically trivial canonical bundle admits an \'etale cover that decomposes into a product of a torus, and irreducible,…
We expand upon the notion of equivariant log concavity, and make equivariant log concavity conjectures for Orlik--Solomon algebras of matroids, Cordovil algebras of oriented matroids, and Orlik--Terao algebras of hyperplane arrangements. In…
We generalize theorems of Deligne-Mumford and de Jong on semi-stable modifications of families of proper curves. The main result states that after a generically \'etale alteration of the base any (not necessarily proper) family of…
We prove that the moduli space of stable logarithmic maps with fixed numerical invariants, from logarithmic curves to a fixed projective target logarithmic scheme with fine and saturated logarithmic structure, is a proper algebraic stack.…
We formulate a notion of stability for maps between polarised varieties which generalises Kontsevich's definition when the domain is a curve and Tian-Donaldson's definition of K-stability when the target is a point. We give some examples,…
We prove a logarithmic base change theorem for pushforwards of pluri-canonical bundles and use it to deduce that positivity properties of log canonical divisors descend via smooth projective morphisms. As an application, for a surjective…
We investigate the stabilization of a locally coupled wave equations with only one internal viscoelastic damping of Kelvin-Voigt type. The main novelty in this paper is that both the damping and the coupling coefficients are non smooth.…
The linear stability of two exact stationary solutions of the parametrically driven, damped nonlinear Dirac equation is investigated. Stability is ascertained through the resolution of the eigenvalue problem, which stems from the…
We consider the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes system in a domain exterior to a disk. The system admits a stationary solution with critical decay $O(|x|^{-1})$ written as a linear combination of the pure rotating flow and the flux carrier.…
We define two equivalent notions of twisted stable map from a curve to a Deligne-Mumford stack with projective moduli space, and we prove that twisted stable maps of fixed degree form a complete Deligne-Mumford stack with projective moduli…
In this paper, we determine the stable base locus decomposition of the Kontsevich moduli spaces of degree two and three stable maps to Grassmannians. This gives new examples of the decomposition for varieties with Picard rank three. We also…
This article contains a self-contained proof of the stability under convolution of the space of resurgent functions associated with a closed discrete subset of the complex plane (the set of possible singularities), under the assumption that…
The Navier-Stokes equations in a two-dimensional exterior domain are considered. The asymptotic stability of stationary solutions satisfying a general hypothesis is proven under any $L^2$-perturbation. In particular the general hypothesis…
We prove that the irreducible decomposition of the permutation representation of GL(n,q) on GL(n,q)/GL(n-m,q) stabilizes for large n. We deduce, as a consequence, a representation stability theorem for finitely generated VIC-modules.
In this paper, we study the stability problem of a star-shaped network of elastic strings with a local Kelvin-Voigt damping. Under the assumption that the damping coefficients have some singularities near the transmission point, we prove…
