To any finite local embedding of Deligne--Mumford stacks $g: Y\to X$ we associate an \'etale, universally closed morphism $F_{Y/X}\to X$ such that for the complement $Y^2_X$ of the image of the diagonal $Y \to Y\times_XY$, the stack…

Let X be a nonsingular projective algebraic variety, and let S be a line bundle on X. Let A = (a_1,..., a_n) be a vector of integers. Consider a map f from a pointed curve (C,x_1,...,x_n) to X satisfying the following condition: the line…

In this paper, we prove that a compact set $K\subset \mathbb{C}^n$ is the support of a weighted equilibrium measure if and only it is not pluripolar at each of its points extending a result of Saff and Totik to higher dimensions. Thus, we…

For a locally convex vector space (l.c.v.s.) $E$ and an absolutely convex neighborhood $V$ of zero, a bounded subset $A$ of $E$ is said to be $V$-dentable (respectively, $V$-f-dentable) if for any $\epsilon>0$ there exists an $x\in A$ so…

Let $A$ be an abelian variety over a complete non-Archimedean field $K$. The universal cover of the Berkovich space attached to $A$ reflects the reduction behaviour of $A$. In this paper the universal cover of the universal vector extension…

Let $ G $ be a real simple linear connected Lie group of real rank one. Then, $ X := G/K $ is a Riemannian symmetric space with strictly negative sectional curvature. By the classification of these spaces, $X$ is a real/complex/quaternionic…

Let $X$ be an algebraic variety and let $S$ be a tropical variety associated to $X$. We study the tropicalization map from the moduli space of stable maps into $X$ to the moduli space of tropical curves in $S$. We prove that it is a…

Vertical decomposition is a widely used general technique for decomposing the cells of arrangements of semi-algebraic sets in ${{\mathbb R}}^d$ into constant-complexity subcells. In this paper, we settle in the affirmative a few…

We further investigate the weak topology generated by the irreducible unitary representations of a group $G$. A deep result due to Ernest \cite{Ernest1971} and Hughes \cite{Hughes1973} asserts that every weakly compact subset of a locally…

Given a projective morphism $f:X\to Y$ from a complex space to a complex manifold, we prove the Griffiths semi-positivity and minimal extension property of the direct image sheaf $f_\ast(\mathscr{F})$. Here, $\mathscr{F}$ is a coherent…

Suppose that f is a dominant morphism from a k-variety X to a k-variety Y, where k is a field of characteristic 0 and v is a valuation of the function field k(X). We allow v to be an arbitary valuation, so it may not be discrete. We prove…

This is the third paper in a series, following [FPVa] and [FPVb]. We classify all modular compactifications of the universal Jacobian over $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$, both as stacks and as their relative good moduli spaces. Our main…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be an algebraic stack admitting a moduli space $\mathcal{X}_{\mathrm{mod}}$. We study the factorizations of the moduli space morphism $\mathcal{X}\rightarrow\mathcal{X}_{\mathrm{mod}}$ to construct intermediate stacks that…

Our main result in this article is a compactness result which states that a noncollapsed sequence of asymptotically locally Euclidean (ALE) scalar-flat K\"ahler metrics on a minimal K\"ahler surface whose K\"ahler classes stay in a compact…

Let $X$ be an equivariant embedding of a connected reductive group $G$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of positive characteristic. Let $B$ denote a Borel subgroup of $G$. A $G$-Schubert variety in $X$ is a subvariety of the form…

We show in ZF that: (i) Every subcompact metrizable space is completely metrizable, and every completely metrizable space is countably subcompact. (ii) A metrizable space X=(X,T) is countably compact iff it is countably subcompact relative…

Determining the limiting behaviour of the Jacobian as the underlying curve degenerates has been the subject of much interest. For nodal singularities, there are beautiful constructions of Caporaso as well as Pandharipande of compactified…

We prove that for any compact quasi-smooth strictly $k$-analytic space $X$ there exist a finite extension $l/k$ and a quasi-\'etale covering $X'\to X\otimes_kl$ such that $X'$ possesses a strictly semistable formal model. This extends a…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. Then for every $G$-space $X$ the maximal $G$-proximity $\beta_G$ can be characterized by the maximal topological proximity $\beta$ as follows: $$ A \ \overline{\beta_G} \ B \Leftrightarrow \exists V \in…

Finite topological spaces are in bijective correspondence with preorders on finite sets. We undertake their study using combinatorial tools that have been developed to investigate general discrete structures. A particular emphasis will be…
