In this paper, we describe the worst unstable points of a Hilbert scheme for some special Hilbert polynomials and ambient spaces using Murai's work on Gotzmann monomial sets. We investigate the geometry of the projective schemes represented…

Given a real algebraic group $G$ acting on a linear space $V$, a vector $v\in V$ is called unstable if $0\in \overline{Gv}-Gv$, where the closure is taken with respect to the Zariski topology. A fundamental theorem of Kempf in geometric…

We prove that the Harder-Narasimhan filtration for an unstable finite dimensional representation of a finite quiver coincides with the filtration associated to the 1-parameter subgroup of Kempf, which gives maximal unstability in the sense…

Let $f$ be a non-invertible irreducible Anosov map on $d$-torus. We show that if the stable bundle of $f$ is one-dimensional, then $f$ has the integrable unstable bundle, if and only if, every periodic point of $f$ admits the same Lyapunov…

It is shown that rational and polynomial convexity of totally real submanifolds is in general unstable under perturbations that are $C^\alpha$-small for any H\"older exponent $\alpha<1$. This complements the result of L{\o}w and Wold that…

A monomial self-map $f$ on a complex toric variety is said to be $k$-stable if the action induced on the $2k$-cohomology is compatible with iteration. We show that under suitable conditions on the eigenvalues of the matrix of exponents of…

The Stable Reduction Theorem guarantees that any smooth, projective, geometrically irreducible curve of genus $g \geq 2$ over a discretely valued field admits a unique stable model after a finite field extension. Computing this model is a…

We study isolated points on the modular curves $X_{H}$, for $H$ a subgroup of $\operatorname{GL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z}/n \mathbb{Z})$ for some $n \geq 1$. In particular, we prove a single-sink theorem for such isolated points, which traces the…

An unstable torsion free sheaf on a smooth projective variety gives a GIT unstable point in certain Quot scheme. To a GIT unstable point, Kempf associates a "maximally destabilizing" 1-parameter subgroup, and this induces a filtration of…

We classify the constraints on a stationary point of the potential invariant under a finite group into intrinsic and extrinsic based on whether they are independent of the coefficients in the potential or not. We find that the symmetry…

Consider the smooth projective models C of curves y^2=f(x) with f(x) in Z[x] monic and separable of degree 2g+1. We prove that for g >= 3, a positive fraction of these have only one rational point, the point at infinity. We prove a lower…

In this paper we study the relative Chow and $K$-stability of toric manifolds in the toric sense. First, we give a criterion for relative $K$-stability and instability of toric Fano manifolds in the toric sense. The reduction of relative…

We develop a representation theoretic technique for detecting closed orbits that is applicable in all characteristics. Our technique is based on Kempf's theory of optimal subgroups and we make some improvements and simplify the theory from…

The Gieseker-Uhlenbeck morphism maps the Gieseker moduli space of stable rank-2 sheaves on a smooth projective surface to the Uhlenbeck compactification, and is a generalization of the Hilbert-Chow morphism for Hilbert schemes of points.…

In the last decades there have been introduced different concepts of stability for projective varieties. In this paper we give a natural and intrinsic criterion of the Chow, and Hilbert, stability for complex irreducible smooth projective…

In this paper, we survey some Galois-theoretic techniques for studying torsion points on curves. In particular, we give new proofs of some results of A. Tamagawa and the present authors for studying torsion points on curves with "ordinary…

Let G be a split reductive group. We introduce the moduli problem of "bundle chains" parametrizing framed principal G-bundles on chains of lines. Any fan supported in a Weyl chamber determines a stability condition on bundle chains. Its…

We study the optimization landscape and the stability properties of training problems with squared loss for neural networks and general nonlinear conic approximation schemes. It is demonstrated that, if a nonlinear conic approximation…

We prove that the Chow quotient parametrizing configurations of n points in $\mathbb{P}^d$ which generically lie on a rational normal curve is isomorphic to $\overline{M}_{0,n}$, generalizing the well-known $d = 1$ result of Kapranov. In…

We study codimension one distributions on the projective three-space, focusing on cases where the tangent sheaf of the distribution is nonsplit and unstable. We relate the order of nonstability to the degree of the induced subfoliation by…
