We show that the $F$-jumping numbers of a pair $(X, \mathfrak a)$ in positive characteristic have no limit points whenever the symbolic Rees algebra of $-K_X$ is finitely generated outside an isolated collection of points. We also give a…

We present the complete list of all singularity types on Gorenstein $\mathbb{Q}$-homology projective planes, i.e., normal projective surfaces of second Betti number one with at worst rational double points. The list consists of $58$…

If $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ is a complete local ring of mixed characteristic $(0,p)$ and $R/pR$ is an $F$-pure Gorenstein domain, we find a sufficient condition for $R$ to be perfectoid pure. This condition is related to the Cohen-Macaulayness of…

Let $X/K$ be a smooth projective variety defined over a number field, and let $f:X\to{X}$ be a morphism defined over $K$. We formulate a number of statements of varying strengths asserting, roughly, that if there is at least one point…

In this paper, we prove the following version of the famous Bernstein's theorem: Let $X\subset \mathbb R^{n+k}$ be a closed and connected set with Hausdorff dimension $n$. Assume that $X$ satisfies the monotonicity formula at $p\in X$.…

We realise Buchweitz and Flenner's semiregularity map (and hence a fortiori Bloch's semiregularity map) for a smooth variety $X$ as the tangent of a generalised Abel--Jacobi map on the derived moduli stack of perfect complexes on $X$. The…

Let G be a group and k a field of characteristic zero. We prove that if the Farrell-Jones conjecture for the K-theory of R[G] is satisfied for every smooth k-algebra R, then it is also satisfied for every commutative k-algebra R.

We prove the Lipman-Zariski conjecture for complex surface singularities of genus one, and also for those of genus two whose link is not a rational homology sphere. As an application, we characterize complex $2$-tori as the only normal…

By the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem, if X is a smooth quasi-projective variety and C a general curve section of X then the fundamental group of C surjects onto the fundamental group of X. Here we consider when this conclusion holds for a…

Let $X \subset \mathbb{P}(w_0, w_1, w_2, w_3)$ be a quasismooth well-formed weighted projective hypersurface and let $L = lcm(w_0,w_1,w_2,w_3)$. We characterize when $X$ is rational under the assumption that $L$ divides $deg(X)$ by…

Let $f$ be a generically finite polynomial map $f: \mathbb{C}^n\to \mathbb{C}^m$ of algebraic degree $d$. Motivated by the study of the Jacobian Conjecture, we prove that the set $S_f$ of non-properness of $f$ is covered by parametric…

We study rational points on a smooth variety X over a complete local field K with algebraically closed residue field, and models of X with tame quotient singularities. If a model of X is the quotient of a Galois action on a weak N\'eron…

For any affine hypersurface defined by a complete symmetric polynomial in $k\geq 3$ variables of degree $m$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ of $q$ elements, a special case of our theorem says that this hypersurface has at least…

The Bernstein-Sato polynomial is an important invariant of an element or an ideal in a polynomial ring or power series ring of characteristic zero, with interesting connections to various algebraic and topological aspects of the…

We consider the following conjecture: if X is a smooth projective variety over a field of characteristic zero, then there is a dense set of reductions X_s of X to positive characteristic such that the action of the Frobenius morphism on the…

Let X be a smooth projective curve of genus g>1 defined over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic p>0. Let M_X(r) be the moduli space of semi-stable rank r vector bundles with fixed trivial determinant. The relative Frobenius…

Given a scheme $X$ over $\mathbb{Z}$ and a hyperfield $H$ which is equipped with topology, we endow the set $X(H)$ of $H$-rational points with a natural topology. We then prove that; (1) when $H$ is the Krasner hyperfield, $X(H)$ is…

We present a non-standard proof of the fact that the existence of a local (i.e. restricted to a point) characteristic-zero, semi-parametric lifting for a variety defined by the zero locus of polynomial equations over the integers is…

In this note, we prove that smooth self-shrinkers in $\Real^{n+1}$, that are entire graphs, are hyperplanes. Previously Ecker and Huisken showed that smooth self-shrinkers, that are entire graphs and have at most polynomial growth, are…

Let $\Bbbk$ be any field of characteristic zero, $X$ be a cubic surface in $\mathbb{P}^3_{\Bbbk}$ and $G$ be a group acting on $X$. We show that if $X(\Bbbk) \ne \varnothing$ and $G$ is not trivial and not a group of order $3$ acting in a…
